Careful with that middleware, Eugene

Read Original

The author recounts a debugging journey for a character encoding bug in Skyscraper, a Clojure web scraping framework. The issue was traced to a middleware wrapper, `wrap-lower-case-headers`, not being applied correctly due to its placement within the clj-http library's request flow, preventing HTTP response headers from being normalized to lowercase.
