  >Now why aren't you posting every security bug in every language to reach HN front page? Don't worry, your fellow Pythonistas ensure that every Ruby security bug reaches the front page. (I don't actually have any skin in this argument since I don't use either language but if you are going to ask such blatantly leading questions then you don't really deserve a better response.)

    Even my postman finds Ruby and Rails exploits, given they are such low hanging fruit.

  You're right, but the pastebin leaks adds "... and here's an exploit".

  Every security bug of this severity in every major language reaches the HN frontpage, especially if there's an easy proof of concept exploit for it.

  Remotely exploitable vulnerabilities in commonly used languages and systems are not the same as "every security bug". These are important because knowing about them allows people to make a (usually) easy fix to protect themselves from something that could destroy their startup. Also, providing an exploit, rather than just the notification makes it clear how important it is to act quickly.
