I get almost all of my calculator needs on the mac via spotlight. cmd-space and then type whatever I need to calculate. The only thing I don't get that I'd like is the ability to do things like "34 days from today" or "days since 15 Feb 2019"

Soulver does that, from memory, and has an Alfred integration. Agreed, useful.

I'm also usually happy with these kind of tools that alloy you to do quick one liners (even google search itself can do a lot!). But sometimes I need multiple expressions. Keeping track of what I wrote already, some variables perhaps etc

Spotlight is sadly really annoying to do math in these days, since it'll spin up multiple cores trying to do useless work :/
