I mean, Jack Dorsey speaking about "Infusing Open Source Culture into Company DNA" when not a single soul has ever heard of him in relation to Open Source before this talk title would have worked as a joke to me.

With @icing's help, we made our first transfers with #curl respecting HTTPS RR records (RFC 9460) today. Kind of cool. Needs more work before it becomes truly useful, and in particular to use it without DoH, but hey. It's a step. There will be many more.

I have actually had #GitHub #Copilot enabled for me for free for several years and I can tell you the exact number of times I have used it: zero (0)

"we are a monster-sized US tech firm with almost a trillion dollar market cap.We are a bureaucratic nightmare so please give us the info for free instead of us having to help your open source project financially and we can keep using it for free in all eternity. kthxbye"

#nope

@selea and you are *sure* curl has run on Maestro? I find no evidence trying to google this.

If you have run #curl on an OS not listed here already, let me know. 102 operating systems.

104

@selea @Drakfot For sure, I consider bringing and distributing stickers my main mission! 😁

I bet you already knew that I will speak at FOSS-north in April 2025: https://foss-north.se/news/daniel-stenberg-to-speak-at-foss-north-2025-4/

For a Linux and Open Source person such as yours truly, there is simply no point in becoming a Microsoft MVP. It is an honor and a kind of award, but after two months on the inside I can now say that absolutely nothing they offer in the program interests me.

Zero Open Source stuff. Zero about protocols. Zero about any Open technologies at all. 100% boring.

This is not a dis on other MVPs. It just describes how it works for me.

Dismissing bogus security vulnerability reports while on vacation - like a pro.

@nixCraft 1. bonus for the typo in the title

2. Lots of people have already found and asked me about the Casio fx-180P calculator on the table behind me 😀 (no, I don't use it)

Ready for the #polhemspriset awards gala tonight.

#curl source code age, take 4

I looked at the first ten minutes of the GitHub Universe intro yday and the frequency of AI getting mentioned exhausted my ears immediately and I had to shut down the stream and go do something useful. For health reasons.

The next #curl release is coming in 8 days

I bet you don't remember when #wget briefly considered switching to using #libcurl back in 2007.
