slowly() takes a function and modifies it to wait a given
amount of time between each call.
slowly(f, rate = rate_delay(), quiet = TRUE)A function that takes the same arguments as .f, but returns
a different value, as described above.
A function to modify, specified in one of the following ways:
A named function, e.g. mean.
An anonymous function, e.g. \(x) x + 1 or function(x) x + 1.
A formula, e.g. ~ .x + 1. Only recommended if you require backward
compatibility with older versions of R.
A rate object. Defaults to a constant delay.
Hide errors (TRUE, the default), or display them
as they occur?

# For these example, we first create a custom rate
# with a low waiting time between attempts:
rate <- rate_delay(0.1)
# slowly() causes a function to sleep for a given time between calls:
slow_runif <- slowly(\(x) runif(1), rate = rate, quiet = FALSE)
out <- map(1:5, slow_runif)
