"We have the guns to keep the state in check but we won't actually do that because that's bad so instead lets keep shooting each other and show off our cool guns". I am not advocating for an insurgency. I am pointing out

So you would rather take your business to somewhere that got hacked, didn't pay the ransom, and got customer data leaked?

> If you can shave off an hour of dev time with $40 in LLM credits, that's $26.50 cheaper than having them do it without. This assumes that that hour shaved was used elsewhere productively which is not the case.
