So I know I could make a spreadsheet to figure this out, but I love the convenience of the burn calc on slimcoin.club  - any chance you could add something that says how many days until you break even and how many effective coins will be left on that date?

A few assumptions made: difficulty unchanged from last PoB, no new burnt coin.

For 10000 SLMs burnt, it will show

83.025724 SLMS GENERATED PER DAY, 14.27 SLMS DECAYED, 120 DAYS TO BREAKEVEN, 8425.162778 BURNT COINS LEFT AT BREAKEVEN


Do you know if the rate of decay changes as a function of increased difficulty?

Decay is a fixed constant that depends on the number of PoW blocks generated since burn: 1.00000198 per PoW block, burnCoins = nCoins / pow(BURN_DECAY_RATE, depthInChain);

For the slimcoin.club calculator, I just assumed 720 blocks per day are PoW (i.e. 3 PoW and 1 PoB), and thus I hard-coded the decay per day is 1.00000198 ^ 720 = 1.001427...
The pool no one can use ?
