XProtect has a wider scope than notarization, though, and its detection rules are different. Notarization and XProtect are both focused on stopping malware but they don't actually operate on the same principle, notarization happens in

I don't think they expected to lose 30% of their workforce. That doesn't seem like something you'd do intentionally except in dire circumstances.

I hardly notice the cost as a user. Sometimes I have to right-click and application to open it the first time, same as it’s been since Gatekeeper was introduced as far as I know. As for developers, well. Apple clearly do not treat their dev

We will see if most of the company stays after losing a third of its staff including several directors and some of its most senior and longest-tenured engineering talent. Would you? I’m not sure I would.

I believe the GP was talking about discrete circuitry vs integrated circuits, not so much supporting peripherals.

What point are you trying to make? The federal minimum wage is not enough to cover people's expenses, whether those expenses come from holding the job or not is irrelevant as to whether such a situation is "sustainable." This

I read their comment differently than you did, but even if I hadn't I don't quite understand your objection. By definition if you're spending $55/day to survive, you're spending $55/day to earn your pay, if not

I think the suggestion to cooperate with Google, like they did with COVID-19 tracking, is a great idea. I'm not sure they will go for it, though.

macOS has a native BSD terminal experience, more or less. Docker is definitely slower. I like using Linux on the desktop, but I don't like maintaining it and my installations always seem to break eventually. To me, Windows is worse tha

Just because similar devices already exist doesn't mean there isn't also a potential for harm with this device, particularly since these will be sold at every Apple Store and have much more exposure.
