It's likely not a single person understands the entire MacOS stack anymore, at least since Mavericks, all the pre-1985 old guard engineers having retired by then.
- Clamchop 3y agoInteresting take given that a Mac today has virtually nothing in common with a Mac of the late 1990s, let alone 1984.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoSays who?
- Kwpolska 3y agoMac OS X is a descendant of NeXTStep. It shares no code in common with classic Mac OS.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoHow is Mac OS Classic sharing lines of code, or not, even relevant to the question?
- s3p 3y agoBy definition. If they used the same code, they would be similar.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoYes but the opposite is not true, zero line of code shared does NOT necessarily imply zero or near zero similarity. Which is the case under discussion.
