If you want only that little description you can use `brew desc ` as well.

Without going into the rest of your points, which seem bizarrely furious at a piece of software, nothing about Homebrew forces you to live inside `/usr/local`. It is recommended, b…

There's actually an `analytics` command that saves you even having to manually do this. `brew analytics --help` shows the options.

Thankfully, none of Homebrew's binaries are stored on GitHub. Most of the changes committed to Homebrew are formulae-based; of the ~5600 contributors in Homebrew's lifetime only ~4…

Homebrew's creator hasn't been involved with Homebrew for nearly two years now.

Not sure why you're looking at Homebrew. If you're feeling jumpy about binary packages, just set `HOMEBREW_BUILD_FROM_SOURCE="1"` in your shell profile. Nobody's forcing binaries o…

Certain things are still being tested/rebuilt to work with the latest GCC. https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/pull/36926

Aye. The Debian compile rules for Jessie's OpenSSL include "no-ssl2 no-ssl3 no-ssl3-method" so it's just TLS1.0 onwards available.

Minor highlight: Debian 8 ships with an OpenSSL which has SSLv3 disabled at compile-time.

Checked Google Chrome prior to update, said it was vulnerable. Updated and now it isn't. Firefox 37 on OS X wasn't vulnerable apparently.

I noticed the rather pitifully empty donation bar last week, and made a mental node to chip in a little bit as soon as I could. Donated €5 today, and visited the website again just…

If most of the UK didn't already think Cameron was an arse this could really damage his reputation.

Kinda weird you've implemented SSL/TLS everywhere except the home page. Surely that's not a deliberate omission? Also, as much as I hate to be a pedant, spelling mistakes/missing w…

Does OpenBSD ship zsh by default, out of interest?

Disclaimer: I heavily contribute to Homebrew. Homebrew actually merged in 4 unique bash patches in 6 days after Shellshock broke as well, and forced all users to recompile to ensur…

Am I misunderstanding what the author means by 'real release' in terms of OpenSSL? OpenSSL themselves pushed 0.9.8za and Apple later adopted it after a significant amount of naggin…

Correct, but long-wave radar suffers terribly from noise, I believe. The difficulty is finding a tiny needle in the proverbial very busy, noisy haystack. The F117 shootdown over Se…

This is neat. I had no idea it existed. Forever in love with the power & simplicity of Ruby.

That's a nice simple little script. Thanks for sharing!

Well, that sucks. DuckDuckGo run a Tor exit enclave. I hope this doesn't put them off running an exit node, even if only to their own servers: https://duckduckgo.com/privacy

Homebrew has patched Bash for all 3 recently announced vulnerabilities, yes. The vulnerable bash will still be lurking on your system though, in /bin/bash and /bin/sh.

They do actually use Git a little. Both the OpenBSD & the Portable LibreSSL source code have mirrors on Github that are updated in sync with the CVS repository. Whether that's beca…
