Oh good! Someone from the @… community can weigh in on the benefits.
Oh wait…
Anyway, sooner or later the time for computable reals will come. I'm still HODLing stock in continued fractions (and teaching them every year to my first-year students).

Isaac King Advocates Replacing Floating-Point with Exact Arithmetic in High-Level Languages

Last updated  13 hours ago

Software engineer Isaac King initiated a discussion on X on November 5, arguing that high-level languages like Python and JavaScript should default to arbitrary-precision arithmetic, such as rationals, to avoid floating-point precision errors that burden developers. Supporters agree on the need for greater accuracy in non-integer computations, while critics, including program…

Abstract: The construction of low-discrepancy sets, used for uniform sampling and numerical integration, has recently seen great improvements based on optimization and machine learning techniques. However, these methods are computationally expensive, often requiring days of computation or access to GPU clusters. We show that simple gradient descent-based techniques allow for comparable results when starting with a reasonably uniform point set. Not only is this method much more efficient and accessible, but it can be applied as post-processing to any low-discrepancy set generation method for a variety of standard discrepancy measures.
