Installer might look pretty but it installs to the homebrew dir, despite not being a homebrew package. Very dirty. No uninstall method.

- embedding-shape 2mo ago> it installs to the homebrew dir, despite not being a homebrew package I can see the reasoning trace in front of me... > Hmm, user asked me to install so CLI is globally available for their user, but didn't instruct where. I inspected $PATH and only directory I can write to is where Homebrew packages live. The user didn't say "Don't pretend it is a Homebrew package" so this seems like a suitable location, lets save it there as it fits what the user asked for.
- _joel 2mo agoyea, you're probably right, if only there wasn't a local writeable bin path that wasn't homebrew they could put it :D
