Last week dbt Labs decided to change the pricing of their Cloud offering. I've already analysed this in week #22.50 of the Data News. In a nutshell, dbt Cloud pricing is per seat based, which means you pay for each dbt developer. Previously for a team it was $50/month/dev and they increase to $100/month/dev, a 100% increase with a team limit of 8 devs and only one project.

One common complaint from industrial users of Haskell is that of compilation times: they are sometimes painfully slow. Some of that slowness is difficult to avoid—no matter how you slice it, typechecking and optimizing Haskell code takes a lot of work—but nobody would argue that there is not ample room for improvement. For the past few months, Krzysztof Gogolewski and I have had the opportunity to work with Mercury to identify what some of those improvements might be, and I am pleased to report
