Ask HN: Intel drawback of patches; Should I update (my Mac) or not?

#1
Recently I read that Intel drew back their patches.

Having not caught up with the discussion of meltdown/spectre, I am left with a question meant for the "average user".

Could you highlight brief reasons - not to update now? - when to update?

I have a Mac.

Thanks :-)
