So starting just the last month or two, an old version of my Mac app which has been available for download for users with older systems has started being flagged as having malware by macOS. I checksummed the file and it's literally the same file that's been available for like 7 years. I'm pretty damn sure there's no malware, so something must have changed in Apple's detection. Anyone ever dealt with something like this? Any way to get whitelisted somehow? Contact Apple DTS I guess?

I wish the Combine framework would live up to its name and harvest some grain.

My god can they just kill the stupid macOS place name thing already? They should have used one more cat name for 10.9, then drop the names with 10.10 and call it macOS 11.
Remember the famous Steve Jobs quote about shaving a second off the Mac's boot time and how many lifetimes it would add up to? I wonder how many lifetimes of brain power have been wasted trying to remember what fucking version of macOS comes first.

Sad to see Script Debugger going away, though I totally understand the decision. This tool has saved me sooooo many hours of time over the years, I very much do not look forward to whatever future macOS update that ultimately ends up breaking it. 😩

Spent a nice weekend at Yosemite after Thanksgiving. Had great fun ice skating, which ended when I fell pretty hard on my hand.
Was sore, tender, and swollen the next couple days, so I went and got it checked out. Nothing broken, just a nice giant bruised area around the base of my thumb, so I get to wear a cool splint to keep my thumb immobilized for a week or two.
Stil totally worth it.

I set up a Bluesky account, but I don’t think I’ll post there. Mostly using it to follow folks coming over from Twitter who never made it here. https://bsky.app/profile/brian-webster.bsky.social

Well, my neighbor's new Cybertruck made it almost 9 months before it had to go into the shop. Not bad! #ActuallyPrettyBad

I think I can count on one hand the number of DTS incidents I've ever filed with Apple, but I just submitted one for a nasty PhotoKit bug on Sequoia. Using PHAssetCreationRequest to import a DNG produced by an iPhone will fail every time (crashing photolibraryd). The same problem manifests if you try to use the "Duplicate" menu item in Photos to duplicate an iPhone DNG file.
Filed as FB15596102 as well, I'm hoping to at least get some sort of workaround while the underlying bug gets worked on.

Trump couldn't fix the ice cream machines when he was at McDonald's but the Biden administration is getting it done. Put another one down in the "How is this election even close!?” file. https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/113369755235402152

From now on whenever I can't figure out something with Swift protocol, generics, and the type system, I'm going to call it an existential crisis. #swift

Gotta love online gaming. Won a game of Hearthstone and my opponent sent a friend request afterwards. He called me a “fuckin fagity faggit”, told me to drink bleach, then unfriended me. ❤️ #hearthstone

Welp, made it over 4 years but COVID finally caught up with us. The kiddo tested positive a couple days ago and I got my double red line this morning. She's still very energetic, I have a fever and headache but so far not too bad. 🤒
