So your assertion is that developers should get in a big huddle to decide how they’re going to consume L1 between applications? Which of course no dev has control over since the OS determines what runs and when.

> The amount of things a computer can do in a single thread are amazing, and computers now have a dozen or more threads to do work. If developers cared about performance, things would easily be 20x as performant as they are today. Why? A

Was it not obvious from what I posted that it didn't load the "entire" application? These solutions generally don't do that.

The NT kernel/executive are the best parts of the OS, better than Linux in various places. I wouldn't give those up -- I'd give the userland up with a 100% bug compatible Win32 shim.

macOS has MDM tooling like Microsoft's InTune, or JAMF, and I'm sure a few others. macOS is designed for MDM profiles, just like iOS is. This is what makes Mac manageable.

There are no enterprise alternatives to Active Directory. Just like there are no enterprise alternatives to Exchange. They're simply too well integrated, too easy to manage, and have more features than their competitors.

That would be an implementation deficiency. If Windows can be FDE and load faster than macOS, then the way macOS has implemented the FDE solution is suboptimal, if startup time is your primary measurement. I personally don't have issue

The Office Startup Assistant was a thing and did improve startup times. I'm not sure where you're making up this rumour stuff from. https://www.betaarchive.com/wiki/index.php?title=Microsoft_K... > The OSA

Yeah, I'd take that with a giant grain. You can't "hide" features that the system uses -- they're all visible. This is why NT APIs get used, even though they're not supposed to be leveraged outside of the kerne

Safari does the same thing on macOS; it has a launch agent to speed the first instance of opening Safari up, as well as a process to send notifications presumably from web apps you've allowed to do so.

Autosave has only ever been a SharePoint/OneDrive feature. You may be confusing it with auto recovery.

It's focused on web tech as COM add-ins are a huge source of security and instability in Office apps. It's also more flexible for developers as they can modify the backend without having to update the client and the deployment mod

You put yourself behind a login. If that's intentional, ok. Otherwise, you've isolated yourself from an audience. You may end up on /r/LinkedInLunatics/. If you believe all publicity is good publicity, that's a

I should be more clear, it's not simply about mouse acceleration, but rather the overall movement curve. It is different from Windows (that's ok) and it feels strange in games if your primary platform has been Windows.

Amazingly enough, things can be surprising when you don't know anything about them, regardless of their intended purpose. But I suppose forums/Internet can be grumpy about other's amazement.

No what? That’s a 3rd party application. MacOS runs just fine with a case-sensitive file system.

I have a 27” 5K display with 218 ppi running at 75Hz. It’s a newly released monitor from Viewsonic. 75Hz would be acceptable however macOS has funky mouse acceleration that makes gaming feel weird.

Linux works because it runs the most stable Linux ABI is available— Win32. Mac users are generally running on aarch64 rather than x86, so you have the binary compatibility barrier. Plus no 32bit support.
