I think this is basically related to apple's SIP system protection: they haven't figured out a way to update this quickly and would need to roll this out in like an OS update, which can take a while.
They might need to make a way to do this outside of os updates

Re:macOS Golden Gate Is a Buggy Mess
on Tuesday September 29, 2026 @12:13PM (#49895782)
My understanding is that Apple has this culture of we must ship things by this date no matter what. They really should slow down and make sure things are fully baked before they get out to the final RC.
Golden Gate works pretty well so far for me.

This is sad. I grew up with him as a columnist in like MacWorld or MacUser, to later on see him become an Apple troll. I think he broke his hand off patting himself on the back after his prediction of Apple moving to Intel chips came to fruition.
I was sad when he got fired from PC Mag over that 5g column.
Re:TLS certificates for internal services done right
on Thursday July 09, 2026 @01:28PM (#48849488)
Split horizon DNS is not something I'm willing to do.
I'll just rock out with .internal or .home.arpa, have step-ca and bind communicate to each other, either in step-issuer in kube or maybe even rfc2136 if i feel like a bit of the dns-01 strategy is in order. I slap the internal ca root certs everywhere, and keep my home infra out of the crt.sh logs.
I get it, I could just do *.mydomain.com and slap that wildcard cert everywhere, but it's still in the public logs..

What is with the phrase "increase spend"? It just seems gramatically .... off. Why not say "Apple partners with Broadcom to produce billions more US chips".
Re:Show HN: Davit, a Apple Containers UI
on Tuesday July 07, 2026 @10:07PM (#48826637)
I can’t speak about orbstack, but I’ve worked with docker desktop and podman desktop for years on macOS. Those programs start up a virtual machine that consistently eats ram regardless of whether or not you are running containers in it. Apple container looks lighter weight. In the age of ridiculous ram costs, you gotta save resources.

The sheer amount of internet disruption that goes on in Spain during soccer matches is just absolutely insane. People who pay for internet service and use it responsibly should not have their service disrupted by people pirating soccer matches. I can’t imagine the investors of the internet companies in Spain are happy about this either.
