In the actions overview, just the spinner icon (svg w/ css animation) takes 25-40% cpu and 10% gpu in my chrome. Enough to keep my fingers very warm on the laptop
no, they have very low quotas by default, and you have to request increases through the portal, which then get rejected and you click the button to contact support/email and then you sometimes have to negotiate with them
you have to do this for every single instance type they have, can't even experiment or test other instance types cause its too much trouble to get quota
The comment I replied to was not talking about changing quotas but actually creating instances.
> Yes it’s weird that you have to ask them for instances which some actual physical person looks at your request, thinks about it and says yes or no to.

Not really. It'd be more accurate to say it's a workaround for an existing proper hygienic macro system built on static introspection and code generation.
Not really. It's not a workaround - it just works.
Maybe most uses of lexical macros could be done with hygienic macros / macro replacement bodies that are fully formed expressions (AST nodes), but not all of them.
For those macros, really the "hygienic" doesn't matter half as much as people pretend. Don't do complex macros where the "hygienic" is required. Don't generate code, write code. If you need to generate syntax to remove boilerplate, then sprinkle a few macros in. But to generate syntax, in general you'll need a lexical macro system.
I'd say its not really a workaround, its a feature. And a hard one to use well. But as someone said in another comment, i think reading the preprocessor in C and especially C++ with the templating is really interesting and help a lot understand how the OG team behind the code used to work. Some tricks are "too clever" for me originally, but with proper documentation on these tricks, i understand tehm and sometime, i have a sudden hindsight/sudden clarity (i don't know how to say it, its a bit like entering the zone?)
How is a straightforward solution to some development problem (create multiple language entities, like enum + data tables, from a single point of definition in the source code) a workaround for some lacking thing?
Maybe you could clarify by posting a better version of what GGP suggested.
