We're going to need default hard budget caps on pretty much everything

Simon Willison argues that default hard budget caps are necessary in software development, citing the benefits of limiting the resources available to a piece of code. He suggests that this approach can improve performance, reduce memory leaks, and make code more maintainable. Willison also notes that default hard budget caps can be implemented at various levels, from individual functions to entire applications. He provides examples of how to apply budget caps in JavaScript and Python.
