This was a delightful read on problems with floating point. My subconscious was familiar with many of these, but these examples really brought the fear of god into my soul.
Googling “arbitrary precision library” for assorted languages now:

I got myself this course: smart-biology.com after waiting years for them to open it up to the public (before it was only sold to universities).
I came for the biology, but the chemistry section blew my mind. I had learned everything in school in mexico, but every concept was disconnected from the next, and thus my chemistry sucked.
So happy that the world finally makes sense.
And every chapter is a 3 minute video, like TikTok, but more fulfilling.

I didn't introduce myself. Better late than never, I guess!
My name is Cassiano from São Paulo, Brazil. Father of twins, Husband.
Living in Ireland since 2014.
I started before the internet when BBS was a thing.
Started with Linux and Internet at the end of 95/mid-96 after I got a set of floppy disks with a copy of Slackware 3.0.
During my BBS times, I used the nick "KÆosMÆker" (Don't ask me why), and later when I started using IRC as "chaosmaker"
