SpeckToTasteon Curlese, Five Years Later

The english version of the 2021 post was not intended when I wrote this post. I've had a kind contribution for it directly on the repository, I will update the links in the article to make it easier to find! Thanks for reading!

SpeckToTasteon Curlese, Five Years Later

Author here, thanks for posting this, I didn't expect to see traffic coming from HN.

I wrote the original "curlese" post (in Italian) back in 2021: the idea that when an HTTP integration breaks, a `curl -v` command is the only language every team should speak. Curl is the ideal tool since you don't have to share logs and neither prove your application behaviour. The thesis stood the test of time :-)
