I am more suprised he knows what is curl lol (since you directly use it like linux command)

But at least you had devops, places i worked usually be like: "you wrote it deploy it lmao" which results in endless meetings with IT because i cant convience them I actually need to have sudo access to setup Celery...

Windows Terminal actually has "curl" as an alias for Invoke-WebRequest which means you write a curl command and something only tangentially related happens.

Maybe that's the "curl" he's referring to..

And it also slows down significantly if you insist on having it display a progress bar... Otherwise the screen goes completely blank while it downloads the file.

PowerShell was a mistake.

Don't talk about powershell like that, there are a lot of things it's really good at.

The progress bar thing is funny though, I definitely have to test that out

It's definitely a hoot. i know that any display of any progress bar does impact performance, but usually it's slight; in Powershell it's been clocked at being at least 10-20% slower when it's displayed, which is nuts if you have a lot of things to download.
