Holy shit Sequoia is the biggest dumpster fire OS I think I've ever seen Apple release on the Mac. They would have been better off just skipping a year instead of releasing... whatever the hell this even is. Every time Apple shits the software bed hard like this I hope it will be something of a Vista moment for them and they'll clean house with the MacOS software team, but it never happens and things just get worse.

I just pray they never fire whoever maintains the iTunes Classic Visualizer, that thing is a gem and it still gets updates sometimes.

Isn't iTunes already dead and replaced with music?

It's just a bug. The system save panel (NSSavePanel) is only supposed to infer the file extension when it has been given a list of supported file types/extensions. If the user does not specify a file extension, NSSavePanel will use the first extension in the supported list. If the user specifies an unsupported extension, they see an error message. Text editors like VSCode and Sublime Text would configure NSSavePanel…

> It's just a bug. It's an unforgivable bug. File save dialogs have been around for decades. There's no reason whatsoever to not have very extensive unit and integration tests around it.

Exactly, and when you interview for companies like this you have to basically prove that you are in the top 1% developers in the world, just to find shit like this being released in the wild for millions of devices. It is absurd.

And entering my password in a different kind of text box is more secure how?

2FA support. Gmail requires 2FA.

It doesn't "require" it. Users might enable it or disable it.

If it's disabled, can you explain to me how is it safer?

Maybe I’m getting old, but my long time preference for Arch is slowly being overtaken by my appreciation for Debian. It’s not the usual complaint about stability — I’ve had one issue in a dozen years with Arch — I just reached a point where I feel like I’m living in the future running Linux software from five years ago, so maybe I don’t need to upgrade quite so relentlessly. Anything I don’t have, I can compile.

What Debian has nailed in the last 10 years is the package management situation that is so smooth. This is why I’m leaving Arch, everything breaks sometimes or a dep won’t upgrade for this or that reason. Debian you install and the package probably has a pretty good initial config and works. Any packages that aren’t recent enough can be built usually because the toolchain versions are probably recent enough. So it re…

My guess, having never used OSX: 1. In the save dialog, filetype can determined in multiple ways (maybe selected from a dropdown, or be set by the program opening the dialog) and not necessarily just inferred from user-entered filename 2. So when returning the path to the program, it appends the filetype's extension to the path iff it doesn't already end in it (so user can enter just `notes` and file gets saved as `n…

That explanation actually makes some amount of sense. So if the application doesn't supply a file type, the dialog Ingers the file type from the filename. So when the user has typed "database.s", the dialog sets the file type to assembly, and it keeps that setting even as the user goes to add "ql".

The user agent is defined by the browser. And it only contains: Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7 irrespective of what Mac you are using.

I’m seeing Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 14_7). What do you think the 14_7 stands for on MacOS 14.7?

I currently use M3 Max MacBook Pro. Mac OS 14.6.1（23G93).

Firefox 130.0.1

  "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:130.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/130.0"
Safari 17.6

  "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/17.6 Safari/605.1.15"
Seems like a Google Chrome-specific behavior, but I don't have Google Chrome installed to test.

I've recently come across a spectacular number of regressions on my M3 Max MacBook Pro, Sequoia as well as previous versions included. The most workflow breaking one (which really tempts me to throw the computer out of the closest window I can find in the room) is a Safari bug that basically randomly fails to open any website with a > Safari can't open the page. The error is: "The operation couldn't be completed. No…

What's your particular use case to keep using Safari if it's not working for you and there are alternatives available?

The only reason of having a Mac (sorry "real" Mac fans ;) is to be able to test your stuff with MacOS. Especially using Safari and the Iphone and Ipad simulators.
