Java Hello World, LLVM Edition

I'm always a bit shocked how casual people people wget and execute shell scripts as part of their install process.

This is the equivalent of giving an author of a website remote code execution (RCE) on your computer.

I get the idea that you can download the script first and carefully read it, but I think that 99% of people won't.

Equally I don't like how many instructions and scripts everywhere use shorthands.

Sometimes you see curl -sSLfO. Please, use the long form. It makes life easier for everybody. It makes it easier to verify, and to look up. Finding --silent in curl's docs is easier than reading through every occurrence of -s.

   curl --silent --show-error --location --fail --remote name https://example.com/script.sh
