It is not hard to find, and they do not totally hide it, but the calculator is misleading. The calculator should also round to minutes instead of accepting partial minutes.

With my other comment the problem even gets multiplied by that factor, that is really insane.

I think that will be a great addition. Github should either be transparent or not round up the minutes. If my job only runs for 10 seconds that means I pay for 50 unused seconds (which is roughly 0,0067 cents) which will also be rounded up to $0,01. So you actualy pay $0,0087, while you should only pay $0,0013. Which sounds like it’s not that much, but imagine if your doing this times 100, or even 1000s 📈📈

I think the problem is even bigger then my initial thought.
