1. Lesson 101 in writing API server: Without rate limiting, an API client can quickly become a liability, bombarding 💣 the API server with requests and potentially triggering errors or HTTP/5xx. It's like giving a toddler unlimited access to the cookie jar – a recipe for disaster 💥. Always ensure that an API client has a default rate-limiting and block listing option.

  @nixCraft This is why some major frameworks come with rate limiting on by default.
