The part about prioritizing "aggressive feature velocity" over "core fundamentals" is true.

The push is as insane as push to AI.

At the same time fundamental improvements like migrating to .net core, or reducing logs is actively deprioritised. If it were not for compliance, we would not have any core engineering improvement at all

Honestly, I was not even aware of rust push, probably cause no one in my org could do rust. I am glad we did not move to AKS though
