    you never downloaded a program on GitHub

    Precompiled binaries?!? Not even once. It’s a security risk akin to picking up gum on the sidewalk for a fun tasty treat.

      So when you just needed software to run on your machinr, you built it yourself. But first read every single line of code to ensure that it’s safe. Did I get that right?

      Because if you don’t trust the developer to provide safe binaries then you wouldn’t trust the same developer to provide safe code either.
