I lost him at: "I think homebrew is an awful piece of software that should never be used by anyone."

Yeah I clicked through the link looking for further explanation and only found suffering.

I wish he'd give some points as to why Homebrew is an awful piece of software. To date, I've had 0 issues...

IIRC homebrew doesn’t handle inter-package dependencies very well - it’s no apt - but apart from that it seems to mostly work OK.

He doesn't explain. Just a link to video that says exact same thing as the essay.

An clicking that link takes you to a talk about MongoDB & MEAN stack... the irony is strong in this one.

He clarified in the comments:
> I just couldn't resist a chance to take a snipe at homebrew, because I've spent more time than I care to admit sorting through the mess junior devs, designers, and non-technical people make of their dev machines with homebrew and when it comes time to upgrade everything inevitably goes horribly wrong.
The comment implies that real developers do not use Homebrew.
