Enterprises are effectively in need of applications that are quality-assured and high-performing because these two factors help in improving the user experience and demand among customers. The world is moving fast with many modern technologies, and this has eventually increased the need for having powerful and high-performing applications. Applications that are slow do not create interest among users and this directly affects the app’s future and enterprise revenue.

The idiosyncrasies of floating point representations also show up in more everyday applications such as calculators and spreadsheets. Here the user-base is less inclined to be sympathetic: If arithmetic computations and results are directly exposed to human users who are not floating point experts, floati

PHP and Node.js are two of the major backend technologies that power web applications. PHP is older between the two, so it naturally has a larger community and major projects in its kitty. That said, the PHP community has started realizing a lack of relevant and updated projects. Surprisingly, this is exactly where Node.js is most successful- building a strong user base across projects meant for modern-day use cases. .

When it comes to cross-browser testing, we tend to focus on executing test cases for bigwigs like Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari. What about the other browsers? What about Opera? Opera may not be your default browser, but it still is a popular web browser in the market and is especially loved in areas that don’t have high-speed Internet. This is because Opera performs quite well even at slow internet speeds.

It’s common knowledge that the IEEE standard floating point number representations used in modern computers have their quirks, for example not being able to accurately represent numbers such as 1/3, or 0.1.

One of the biggest time costs in software development is understanding how a system works. And the problem may be growing. Systems are getting more complex yet our ability to understand them doesn’t seem to be growing at the same rate. As we continuously develop software systems, the complexity slowly increases and we don’t fully realise it. Nobody sets out to create a Big Ball of Mud, but many codebases end up that way due to the cumulative effect of the thousands of small changes we make.
