Curl is now a CVE Numbering Authority
No need to use curl, make HTTP requests great again with https://github.com/ducaale/xh

Why people in Google hate Go?
Except when you actually enjoy things being fast. For example, HTTPie easily adds 0.5-1s delay to every request because it's written in Python, especially on the first invocation. xh (https://github.com/ducaale/xh), on the other hand, starts immediately because it's written in Rust. I very much like this trend.

HTTPie Desktop: cross-platform API testing client for humans
HTTPie is great and was a big improvement for me over cURL.
However, I ended up switching to xh[1] as it's significantly faster and I prefer its output.

Tell HN: Postman just wiped all my stuff
No, but unless portability is a concern or you're massively familiar with curl, you might want to consider xh. It's much more intuitive.

The curl-wget Venn diagram
wget on the other hand, automatically converts the ñ to UTF-8 hex and resolves the link perfectly.
I've searched the curl manpage and couldn't find a way to solve this. Please help.
I'm having to use `xh --curl` [1] to "fix" the links before I pass them to curl.

Get better with Vim one tip at a time
Very nice, you should add xh to the User-Agents though.

I Could Rewrite Curl
While not a rewrite - one recent tool for making http requests which i quite enjoy is:
https://github.com/ducaale/xh
It's basically python httpie rewritten in rust. my only gripe is that i keep forgetting that it exists - and that "xh" is for http and "xhs" is for https.
So i frequently end up with curl anyway:)
