it is curious how many people feel they need to ask me why #curl is not moving off #GitHub
The cold and boring answer is money. GitHub sponsors us with a crapload of CI infra that there is no other company even close to doing.
So while they may be an AI-first delusional company, they help our project so much more than all other hosting sites combined.
It would be reckless and irresponsible of us to ignore this.
#curl tells the %time - extending -w once more
How you can achieve some level of async processing in PHP using Symfony HTTP Client, Guzzle or cURL.
I published a video on a small refactoring on our own @Tideways codebase to use parallel HTTP requests to reduce time spent talking to a microservice.
On this day, twenty-five years ago, libcurl was born. The engine from the #curl tool turned into a library so that others could also get internet powers.
The name "libcurl" was picked simply because we couldn't think of a better name and yeah, it is a "curl library"...
libcurl 7.1 was a dot-one release to make sure it would not get confused with one of the many 7.0 beta releases we did prior to the actual release.
One of the first adopters of libcurl was PHP.

Another #curl security report that took some serious mind wrestling and debugging to get to the bottom of.
In the end I deem it not a security vulnerability but you can see how this is not an easy call.
Also, I made the #curl tool support up to 10000 "globs" per URL. Just keep the total number of URLs they expand to within 64 bits.
(It was more of an accidental follow-up effect as I introduced a growing array to keep them, so the previous fixed-limit array can start much smaller but also grow much larger if wanted.)

c10kday - #curl turns 10,000 days old
Share your own #curl story here: https://github.com/curl/curl/discussions/17930 ... in celebration of c10kday tomorrow.
This day shall be remembered as the last day #curl was still just 4 digits days old.
