[Projet] PIC 📷
PIC stands for Preview Image in CLI, I think this should be explicit enough. I first made it because I needed a way to display images in the terminal (for an xplr plugin), but the more I worked on it, the better it got, as of now I have implemented 4 different ways to preview images (I couldn't find other ones), some can even display GIFs!

Telegraph and the Unix Shell
Certain file managers like xplr allow for more advanced terminal UX. Check out the video on https://xplr.dev/ and you can see something like a live/interactive ls that allows toggling arguments (instead of running multiple commands and pushing previous stdout further into the past).

Ask HN: Is it still possible to live in a terminal?
The Vim/Neovim ecosystem has gotten unbelievably better over the last 5-10 years. "Living in the terminal" for core development work is IMO better than pretty much anything else out there; my Neovim setup has a modern plugin manager; an IDE-like experience with fast autocompletion as I type, goto definition, and automated refactor support; and a side-drawer file browser navigable with Vim motions. It feels like an IDE, except that it launches in ~100ms and has ultra-low typing latency. Using it with tmux panes means I can have various drawers and panes with a series of full, incredibly fast terminals wherever I want, with long-running tasks like automated test watching/running while I edit code placed wherever I want around the editor panel. Not to mention the Cambrian explosion of "modern" terminal tooling getting built, like xplr [1], hyperfine [2], httpie [3], etc.
That being said, I think "living in the terminal" for general purpose computing, like browsing the web or talking to your coworkers, has been in a kind of frozen standstill while the rest of the world has moved on. I think it isn't worth trying to push non-dev work into the terminal currently.

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.

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:)
