This wraps QuickJS and there is not a single mention on their front page. At least a hello or shout-out to Fabrice Bellard would have been nice.
But I guess it's AWS and they do this with other projects, so not too surprising.

Props to them on the quick fix!
In fact our trust in AWS and the team has plummeted that we ultimately ditched serverless and went str8 to VPS
The days of zero interest rate series B buying up reserved EC2 instances in the millions are gone. As capital gets expensive we see more reluctance to moving to cloud.
AWS claims of "10x faster startup @ half the cost" is confirmation that the Serverless movement is DOA

Remember similar concerns raised viz Firecracker (which is a hard fork of Google crosvm: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22360232), but don't recall it being a pattern.
Probably a nod to the ElasticSearch licensing debacle.
Agree with you there should be credit where credit is due - I have been using QuickJS for some time and its awesome. For the cost of about 1MB you can get entire modern JS in your C/C++ binary.
I also had to double check but we do indeed list it on our website, albeit in a sea of others.
