Why web 2.0 shit sucks

Let's use an immature standard and young libs for production servers

Go run this one-liner that totally won't fuck your shit up to install a shitty package manager that works like shit anyways.

God damn it, why arent there any good JWT libs for C?

The "modern Web2.0 way" to transfer a file is to base64 encode it, put that base64 into a JSON, then wrap that JSON in HTTP request only to have the server do the opposite on the other side.

To anyone who thinks this is a joke: it's not. I had to do this at work recently.

Also the entire shit was written in an in-house framework built on top of AngularJS which boxed every type in more JSON. So instead of sending "foo" I have to send { type: "string", data: "foo" } to get a string to the other side.
