2019 is special in my heart. 2019 was different than many other years to me in several ways. It was a great year!<\/em> This is what 2019 was to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

curl and wolfSSL<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I quit Mozilla<\/a> last year and in the beginning of the year I could announce that I joined wolfSSL<\/a>. For the first time in my life I could actually work<\/em> with curl on my day job. As the project turned 21<\/a> I had spent somewhere in the neighborhood of 15,000 unpaid spare time hours on it and now<\/strong> I could finally do it “for real”. It’s huge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still working from home of course. My commute is still decent<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HTTP\/3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Just in November 2018 the name HTTP\/3<\/a> was set and this year has been all about getting it ready. I was proud to land and promote HTTP\/3 in curl<\/a> just before the first browser (Chrome) announced their support. The standard is still in progress and we hope to see it ship not too long into next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

curl<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Focusing on curl full time allows a different kind of focus. I’ve landed more commits in curl during 2019 than any other year going back all the way to 2005. We also reached 25,000 commits<\/a> and 3,000 forks on github.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve added HTTP\/3<\/a>, alt-svc<\/a>, parallel transfers<\/a> in the curl tool, tiny-curl<\/a>, fixed hundreds of bugs and much, much more. Ten days before the end of the year, I’ve authored 57% (over 700) of all the commits done in curl during 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ran our curl up conference<\/a> in Prague and it was awesome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also (re)started our own curl Bug Bounty<\/a> in 2019 together with Hackerone and paid over 1000 USD in rewards through-out the year. It was so successful we’re determined to raise the amounts significantly going into 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public speaking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’ve done 28 talks<\/a> in six countries. A crazy amount in front of a lot of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In media<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dagens Nyheter published this awesome article on me<\/a>. I’m now shown on the internetmuseum<\/a>. I was interviewed and highlighted in Bloomberg Businessweek’s “Open Source Code Will Survive the Apocalypse in an Arctic Cave<\/a>” and Owen William’s Medium post The Internet Relies on People Working for Free<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Github had their Github Universe event in November and talked about their new sponsors program on stage (which I am part of, you can sponsor me<\/a>) this huge quote of mine was shown on the big screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maybe not media, but in no less than two Mr Robot episodes<\/a> we could see curl commands in a TV show!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Podcasts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’ve participated in three podcast episodes this year, all in Swedish. Kompilator episode 5<\/a> and episode 8<\/a>, and Kodsnack episode 331<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live-streamed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’ve toyed with live-streamed programming and debugging sessions<\/a>. That’s been a lot of fun and I hope to continue doing them on and off going forward as well. They also made me consider and get started on my libcurl video tutorial<\/a> series. We’ll see where that will end…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2020?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I figure it can become another fun year too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
