The top advice given to anyone wanting to get better at writing, besides just writing, is to read more.

A short intro for now: since hyper stabilized 1.0, it powers more, and needs more.

Imagine someone tells you to get them a rock.

As many parts of the Internet continue to get worse, I figured it was time to improve my own little plot.

I dislike the pattern in some languages to create durations by multiplying constants.

If you choose to communicate with me, all I ask is that you use your own words.

As a library maintainer, it’s common to receive requests from users to add a “simple accessor”.

Errors might have internal details that don’t make sense to compare.

POSSE is the practice of publishing on your own site first, and pushing that out to other services.

hyper is the widely-used HTTP library for Rust.

Come along with me as I review the past year.

To end out the year, here comes a new major release of reqwest, the opinionated higher-level HTTP client for Rust.

I’m so excited to announce hyper’s new composable pool layers!

I’m excited to announce the inaugural hyper user survey!

Last week I was a guest on the Netstack podcast.

A new HTTP/2 attack vector was disclosed today called MadeYouReset. hyper’s h2 is negligably affected, weathering the attack well.

Yesterday, warp v0.4 was released. warp is a Rust web server framework, with a focus on functional programming and type system routing.

One part of working on a more modular reqwest was adding support for retries.

This describes a proposal for a cancelation problem with hyper’s request and response bodies. hyper is an HTTP library for the Rust language.

reqwest came out 8 years ago.

I want to go through some highlights of the year.

After a year since hyper 1.0, we’re updating the ROADMAP. hyper is an HTTP library written in Rust, used by many in production.

tl;dr - hyper in curl is nearly complete, but it needs a champion.

Patches are available for h2, v0.4.4 and v0.3.26, to harden against a newly disclosed HTTP/2 attack vector, mostly for servers.

I was recently a guest on the Rustacean Station podcast.

Today marks the v0.12 release of reqwest, a higher-level, batteries-included HTTP client for the Rust language.

A year of change, and of stability.

I’m excited to announce v1.0 of hyper, a protective and efficient HTTP library written in the Rust programming language. hyper provides asynchronous HTTP/1 and HTTP/2 server and client APIs, allowing you to bring your own IO and runtime.

Today, the world has been made aware of a potential vulnerability affecting most HTTP/2 implementations, sending a rapid amount of streams and resets.

This stabilization PR for async fn in traits made me think: was async fn in Rust a mistake?

tl;dr - I’m independent, sponsor me!
