computers are so bad
Just tried to install a ruby gem bundle and wtf, no, if you can't write to /usr/bin the answer is never "silently call sudo in the background and do it anyway"

@emily aka delete sudo now, it is a giant security hole all by itself.

@crashglasshouses meh, not any more than su.
I have, however, now been convinced to turn off NOPASSWD.

@emily NPM and Bundler ecosystems try to do this shit SO MUCH . It's also how folks attempt (fail) to fix Ruby/Python dep stuff locally too because they're handed fish and not enabled to fish correctly on their own: "oh bundle install failed, what if I just slap sudo in front of that shit and try again"
And then queue SREs getting dispatched to clean up the cryptic mess lol

also btw this definitely said "ruby gem bundle thing", in a "humorously using many related words together" sort of way, but I accidentally dropped "thing" and now it looks like I don't know what I'm talking about
