Same here. For tough compute, I spin up a machine in some cloud service, do what I need, and shut it down. Of course, its a different issue if you need power on the desktop right there, like for A/V/Graphics work.


You'll have to bring in the 2π factor somewhere. Cant escape it. If sint is the sin function but with angle give in turns, then d/dx sint(x) = 2π cost(x). sin(x) ~ x for small x but sint(x) ~ 2πx for small x.


Lean seems to fit your ask fairly well.


I recently lent a book with some scribbled notes of mine to a friend and they were all like "oh we love scribbles in books". Another way to connect.


I wish people'd report metrics like "40 type classes, 5000 functions, 300 instances, 20 monads, 14 functors, ..." And such instead of "lines of haskell".


I wish people'd report metrics like "transactions per second, 99.x% availability with N secs/mins p99 latency, ..." when describing how practically useful and how effective a real-world banking/transaction system is, which further proves the practicality of the programming language.


Those inseparably mix up programming language, compiler, programmer(s) and application domain as factors.


This test would be a good way to lose existing subscribers perhaps.


Presumably they want to lose existing subscribers because it’s way too expensive to keep them at $20.


Is it? I’m curious because I thought they were raising prices to pay for exorbitant training costs, not because subscribers are expensive on a unit basis.

I thought inference was cheap so there was little marginal cost of a new subscriber.


This was more or less true until everyone and their dog started running agents in a 24/7 busyloop as a bit.


You’re not doing that on a $20/mo plan.


https://claude.com/product/claude-code seems to say it is included in Pro plan.


"Fast" is not always a virtue and "efficiency" is not always the only consideration.


While this can give a notation for the domain, you'd still need an engine to process it. Prolong+CLPFD perhaps meets it well (not too familiar with the tax domain) and one could perhaps paraphrase Greenspun's tenth rule to this combo too.
