Satya Nadella, shame on you!
Of course, I think every disease should be treated at the root. Maybe the father of the serial killer had a boring or inhumane job or they didn’t have enough money to send him to fancy college and projected all his frustrations on the children and the family and that child has the potential to become very dangerous to society. I agree not everyone would recover but a good percentage.
I guarantee that if you give every prisoner or delinquent to do what he likes or a normal job, he will be like the rest of us, a completely normal person. Bad government and lack of smart strategy and vision makes criminals, nothing more.

Love Matz & Ruby, Merry Christmas!
They made lot "invisible" improvements in 10.15 (apfs is finished, kern speedup, metal, ml, fonts on 4k etc..) but not sure about this iOS look on my MacBookPro, Now my os look like web page from '98. Way too flat. Icons are broken on toolbar, hated how it looks.

Suggestion:

1. One Pro OSX version for Pro users (cut all services that eat ram and can be security hole) and add more options for advanced users.

2. Cut price around $800 or if you can cut more without damage in "real" performance and quality. Because not all apps use all power anyway.

3. And most important, fix broken flat UI, find balance. We have lot talented designers without job.

4. Don't break old apps with new update, find way for LTS.

MacOS is still my favourite BSD distro and mac from 2013/15 is perfect HW. So, if you do not know how to improve it, then keep what works and what users like or ask.

Patterns of Effective Delivery (Embracing Uncertainty)

Agile software development was born ten years ago, with a gathering of industry luminaries in Snowbird, Utah. They were frustrated that so much ceremony and effort was going into so little success, in failed project after failed project, across the software industry. They had each enjoyed amazing successes in their own right, and realised their approaches were more similar than different, so...
