@petrillic definitely the best reason to have an API is so that no one can call it

@petrillic Oh, they want an inscrutable API? SOAP still exists!

@theorangetheme @petrillic Does anyone ever want SOAP?

@petrillic I might go as far as saying there's no private protocols on the internet either, but too many people think https _is_ the web instead of just a part of it.

@trevorflowers I mean, I'm currently figuring out how to stuff UART over gigabit optics and whether I can bang out 8B/10B fast enough.
