    Millions of people look up to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. My role model is Daniel Stenberg. You've never heard of him. His code runs on 10 billion devices, including the one you're reading this post on. He started building cURL in 1996. It handles data transfer on nearly every phone, console, smart TV, 47 car brands, and it was on the Mars helicopter. He's also the person who's kept it going for nearly 30 years. Tech has the wildest spectrum of any industry: either you're a billionaire with a biopic, or you're quietly running things for billions of people who don't know your name. > Steve Jobs got a movie. > Bill Gates got a documentary. > And Daniel? He's got a pull request backlog and an inbox full of AI bots. I get it. I run an infrastructure company One (formerly Pica). We handle API authentication and execution across 250+ platforms. Our code runs inside tools you use every day. Nobody's ever been impressed by this at a dinner party. But the most important software is almost always the kind nobody knows exists. Auth libraries, data mappers, execution engines. Look up Daniel Stenberg, Werner Koch, and Theo de Raadt -- between them, they maintain the code that transfers your data, encrypts your email, and secures every server connection on earth. We stand on the shoulders of a thousand Daniels. Most of us have never said their names, let alone thanked them. | 24 comments on LinkedIn

    @bagder read this to my wife. Who is a social worker. „This is what drives us.” She can relate and finds it quite cool.

    My code is in 4 car brands that I know of only. But I am working for more. They tend to pay my employer, though 😀

      @bagder to me you'll always be the one that kind of made my Archos Jukebox work in Linux.

      My memory is very hazy. I was trying to find a way to contribute but was absolutely clueless on Linux driver workings so this never got anywhere. But the haxx.se domain name somehow did get ingrained in my memory

        @bagder Show your family, frame it and hang in the hall. Thoroughly deserved. And known to many more than you may have imagined.

            A belated thanks in any case!

                @bagder at my first professional game dev job in ~2006 I used libcurl to make our game talk to a web server for UGC uploads and downloads.
                At my current game dev job I'm using libcurl to talk to a web service for internal telemetry of a game dev tool.
                Thanks so much for the great library Daniel 🙂

                    @bagder that dependency on a single software or even person feels problematic to me (not your fault obviously) but I'm very grateful for one of my favorite command line tools! ❤️

                          Millions of people look up to Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. My role model is Daniel Stenberg. You've never heard of him. His code runs on 10 billion devices, including the one you're reading this post on. He started building cURL in 1996. It handles data transfer on nearly every phone, console, smart TV, 47 car brands, and it was on the Mars helicopter. He's also the person who's kept it going for nearly 30 years. Tech has the wildest spectrum of any industry: either you're a billionaire with a biopic, or you're quietly running things for billions of people who don't know your name. > Steve Jobs got a movie. > Bill Gates got a documentary. > And Daniel? He's got a pull request backlog and an inbox full of AI bots. I get it. I run an infrastructure company One (formerly Pica). We handle API authentication and execution across 250+ platforms. Our code runs inside tools you use every day. Nobody's ever been impressed by this at a dinner party. But the most important software is almost always the kind nobody knows exists. Auth libraries, data mappers, execution engines. Look up Daniel Stenberg, Werner Koch, and Theo de Raadt -- between them, they maintain the code that transfers your data, encrypts your email, and secures every server connection on earth. We stand on the shoulders of a thousand Daniels. Most of us have never said their names, let alone thanked them. | 24 comments on LinkedIn
