    I'm in the camp of "if I can't build it, then it's not open source" so https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/d314f3ebba9e7... is a good start, but there is no .../f/flutter.rb although there is https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=flutt... but I haven't been soaking in the AUR ecosystem long enough to be able to port it to Homebrew

    All those words to say that if there was a .github/workflow/release.yml showing the steps required to cook a release artifact that would be the best(?) documentation since it is kind of like a Dockerfile in that it's computer executable but mostly human readable

  • GitHub Disabled the Xz Repo
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Mar 2024
    Is disabling the compromised repo the typical GitHub policy? My concern is there are monorepos used by package managers, like brew, that are a collection of thousands of projects [1]. These monorepos seem like a prime target for attack and if GitHub disables one because a malicious commit was merged then you've taken down an entire ecosystem.

    This is the same with a binary though. And with homebrew, you can't follow patches or flags used or if they change.

    definitely be careful about using fortune in a corporate environment or public space if you don't know what dat files you are using or you might just get an extremely unwelcome surprise.

    I was practicing a presentation and used to use "fortune" all the time. I forget exactly what it output but I remember being absolutely mortified about what could have happened if that had popped up during an internal company tech talk.

    Kudos to brew for keeping unsuspecting people safe

    I'm sorry to be asking this as I find it a bit silly, but it's blocking my PR [3], so could a few of you star the project on Github [1] to get my PR to run?
