eBPF will help solve service mesh by getting rid of sidecars
It looks not too different from the majority of HTTP parsers out there written in C. Here is an example of NodeJS [0].

The history and reasons behind CORS, and how to use it
Whoa, I didn't know that! But yeah, it seems like https://github.com/nodejs/http-parser is based on nginx. It now uses https://github.com/nodejs/llhttp but has some of the same legacy.
On the other hand, deno's HTTP stuff is built on top of Hyper, a Rust library https://github.com/hyperium/hyper

A Universal I/O Abstraction for C++ (2020)
Boost.Beast has its own HTTP parser[0], during the development of which Vinnie Falco (the principle author of Beast) found many bugs/inconsistencies in Node.js's own parser[1]

How to pass ownership of std::function object to function pointer?
For cases where it is necessary to pass local information to/from a callback, the http_parser object's data field can be used.

Plain Text Protocols
Legacy HTTP/1.1 suffers a few issues, see the current RFC errata:

There are issues particularly around how whitespace and obsolete line folding should be handled

It's not as trivial as a few string splits.

The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade
> If you are equally picky and constrain yourself to parts of the ecosystem which care about binary size, you still have more options and can avoid size issues.
What's an example of this for, say, libcurl? On my system it has a tiny number of recursive dependencies, around a dozen. [0] Furthermore if I want to write a C program that uses libcurl I have to download zero bytes of data ... because it's a shared library that is already installed on my system, since so many programs already use it.
I don't really know the appropriate comparison for Rust. reqwest seems roughly comparable, but it's an HTTP client library, and not a general purpose network client like curl. Obviously curl can do a lot more. Even the list of direct dependencies for reqwest is quite long [1], and it's built on top of another http library [2] that has its own long list of dependencies, a list that includes tokio, no small library itself.
In terms of final binary size, the installed size of the curl package on my system, which includes both the command line tool and development dependencies for libcurl, is 1875.03 KiB.
[0] I'm excluding the dependency on the ca-certificates package, since this only provides the certificate chain for TLS and lots of programs rely on it.

Signway - a pre-signed URLs gateway written in rust, specifically designed for allowing LLM based client apps to directly query OpenAI's api securely.
Using Rust here was immensely helpful, using libraries made by the community like https://github.com/hyperium/hyper really powered up the development of Signway, so glad to see this kind of awesome crates made public. Hope that it continues to be like that despite the current controversies.
