This same crash occurs whether I run from the launcher or from the command line 
within the app bundle and with or without GUI. Here are my system specs:

MacOS 10.13.3 (I am waiting for the semester to be over before upgrading)
Homebrew is up-to-date

If you want me to send you the entire crash log, let me know.
