In my recent post on the PSA Crypto API, I demonstrated the use of the API on two different MCUs: the nRF52840 and the ESP32-S3. In the case of the former, the ECDSA signature operation was eventually executed in a closed source library that manages communication between the Arm Cortex-M4 processor and the Arm TrustZone CryptoCell 310 security subsytem. Readers that ventured down the rabbit hole of links in the post may have noticed that there are variants of the nrf_cc310_mbedcrypto libraries for hard-float and soft-float.

New blog post! I really hope I'll get a decent amount of people mad with this one 😈😈😈

0.1 + 0.2 In SQL = 0.30000000000000004?!
SQL floating point precision is broken! Adding 0.1 + 0.2 creates a number with precision errors. This breaks financial calculations! Watch!
