     @bagder @sakjur so curl is so legendary that it’s to HTTP requests what Google used to be for search—vital to the point of being a valid verb of its own?

     Looking into osquery and I tried their curl module. Doesn’t work with my network setup at work, which seemed weird because curl works just fine.

     Turns out curl is just another word for a Boost based lightweight HTTP client.

     curl means curl. Not “Invoke-WebRequest” and not “Boost based HTTP client”.
