TPF = “tokens per feature.” A metric for how much compute each feature consumes, used to optimize cost, performance, and ultimately increase shareholder value (regardless of whether the feature is actually useful).
TPF = Total_Tokens_Used / Number_Of_Features
“We cut two features and halved TPF — finally increasing shareholder value.”
“This tiny button somehow doubled TPF, but hey, shareholder value 📈.”
“The app barely works, but at least we optimized TPF to increase shareholder value.”
The acronym TPF stands for "Targets PerpetuallyFrightened"
The term is used to describe opponents that are hiding from you. They may claim to just be regrouping, and will be out of hiding soon, but they are only saying that to save face. "TPF moder's" just can't hang.
