If you couldn't tell your food had been cut with sawdust would it matter to you if you found out?

Is threatening the computer program and typing in all caps standard practice..?

    - Honesty is a core value. If you lie, you'll be replaced.
    - BREAKING THE LETTER OR SPIRIT OF THE RULES IS FAILURE.

Wild to me there is no explicit configuration for this kind of thing after years of LLMs being around.

I _guarantee_ they knew about it.

They even posted on social media 1 week before launch warning people to expect lower than expected performance, and raised the system requirements.

If companies have to decide between prioritising features that they've advertised, show stopper bugs, and performance, guess which one always takes the back seat :)

I made a demo integrating deno and sqlite into a quasi-"lambda" runtime in 200 lines for a rust meetup talk, if anyone is interested https://github.com/tbillington/rust_serverless_runtime.
