Yet Another Newsletter LOL: You get an API and You get an API!

Another week, another newsletter. Let’s get to it!

HTTP3 has been standardized

Today, after over 5 years of work, HTTP/3 was finally standardized as RFC 9114! https://t.co/IGMNam0AOS

Words of Wisdom for the Week

This made me laugh, but it’s also a friendly reminder to get your stuff out there and learn in public

Remember it’s called a garbage CAN. Not a garbage CANT.
