Classic GitHub issue thread: Someone shows up and tries to explain it’s not a bug and never could have worked. Everyone else points out that it does work on other Mac hardware. Person doubles down and tries to claim that the bug was that it ever worked, and not working is the correct behavior. New Mac OS beta release fixes the bug and makes it work. Nothing related to the repo was changed.
remember how there used to be people whose lifestyle was answering Stack Overflow questions? 3 years from now we're going to be looking at charts showing engagement from GitHub Lifestyle people going straight down too.
Unfortunately most consumers put up with it, instead of handling it like shoes, returning them to the shop for a refund, or if surviving the explosion, a lawsuit.
As much as it pains me to toss shoes every year, I much prefer the light, flexible construction of disposable shoes to the heavy rigidity of made-to-last ones.
I wonder how much of the "shoes used to last longer" thing is down to individuals getting older and heavier over time. Also time perception changes with age. It's probably still true, though.
Analogy kind of falls apart when you consumers are willing to put up with quite a lot to save a buck. They happily build their own furniture for example.

This is actually what’s interesting
Like that probably still open huge github issue with hundreds of comments, the one about how docker will blow your firewall wide open.

I couldn't get bridged networking to work with my M5 machine and VMs running on Parallels. This thread here would seem to indicate it's a known issue (with no updates or resolution :/ ) - https://forum.parallels.com/threads/m5-macbook-air-windows-1...
The OP has a thing that solves it for many: update to a beta version.
The linked Github also states that updating to 26.6 works.
I love when things work out in the end!
(issue is fixed in the latest MacOS 26 and 27 betas)
The M5 Pro and M5 Max support Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6 via Apple's N1 wireless networking chip, while the base M5 supports Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3.

That's super weird.
Remember, if shoes were like software, they would explode while you're trying to tie the laces, because the first of the month landed on a Tuesday.

Shoes today are garbage that wears through within half a year; consumers are accepting it and coming back for more.

Depends, not everyone buys on street bazaar, and usually most that put up with low quality is because they sadly cannot afford any better.
Half of a year is getting awfully close to the timeline of a many return policies, and most people do like saving money. Just saying...
The Samuel Vimes Boot theory of economic unfairness comes to mind.
Oh wow, it has it's own wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory

Only a subset of them.
Don't try to do professional work on consumer hardware ...
you say that while I'm pretty sure the macbooks are the most popular laptop platform for developing software?
What kind of, ahem, "non consumer hardware" should I buy to run a virtual machine?
