Software development is so rotten: So I had to compile curl 32 bit. But just to create the configure script I needed friggin autoconf, libtooling and 2 other packages which homebrew would not install, because there were too many github-API requests. So I created a fucking github account just to create a token, import it in my bash to enable more requests. And it even worked. That is the scandal: That this whole shattered, stinking abomination of a process even produces some software you might actually run... and that we are using it.

    Your first mistake was using a Mac.

    No option there. We have to distribute our software for Mac. Really hate it though. This smallish "keyboard", Xcode, the way mouse scrolling works. How most things are hidden from the user... It all just doesn't seem developer friendly.
