Oh this stuff is what’s prompting the ffmpeg Twitter account to make a stand against Rust https://x.com/ffmpeg/status/1924137645988356437?s=46

The healthier response might have been work to speed-up dav1d. If you refine the Olympic Record metrics and force them to retrospectively update previous records so that Bolt's 100m sprint record is revised to 9.64s rather than 9.63s nobody cares man, get a life, but if you can run an actual nine second 100 metre sprint that people care about†

† If you're a human. If you're an ostrich this is not impressive, but on the whole ostrichs aren't competing in the Olympic 100 metre sprint.
