For all the recent supply chain security attacks, I find it fascinating that C++’s standard package manager hasn’t been attacked. Tells you a lot that nobody is criticizing C++’s security right now!

@jfbastien this, but unironically.

Complexity of dependency management makes developer to think carefully about every added one therefore a tiny shell tool does not have 300 of deps to build.

@jfbastien tbh it’s only a matter of time before Mythos finds a CVE in the /dev/null driver
@jfbastien
security == painful
C++ package management == painful
==> C++ package management == security?
