Re:Google to Reimplement Curl in Libcrurl by Spivak on Wednesday June 19, 2019 @09:39AM (#20223212)
Like we're talking about software developers here. I think it's funny that when a Google engineer does it there's some shadowy motivation to usurp a FOSS downloader library -- like they aren't like the rest of us picking silly names for things.

"Hey, curl is a super useful tool, it would be nice if it used our new fancy network protocol"

"Yeah, what should we name it?"

"Uhh -- wait, I got it. crurl and the library could be libcrurl"

"Hilarious! It's perfect!"
