http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/starting/install/osx/ says to run
$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
Whoops, the Homebrew installer has moved! Please instead run:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Also, please ask wherever you got this link from to update it to the above.
Thanks!

You can always check out the docs source, make the change and make a pull request. Chances are it will go through within minutes of being seen.

That said, my question for the powers that be is: why recommend a brew installation at all when the official Python installer will provide everything (with symlinks from /usr/local/bin to the OS X path)? In fact, I've only ever seen one thing complain about a proper install of Python from the python.org site and that was Homebrew (which complains about and interferes with lots of things it has no business getting into).
