Catalina and Mojave were the closest releases in terms of quality that we got to Snow Leopard. Catalina in particular since it was the release that removed more 32-bit cruft (like Snow Leopard before it).
New feature development in web and mobile apps is absolutely 10% more productive with these tools, and anyone who says otherwise is coping. That's a large fraction of software development.
This is by choice, no? In most cases I see stuff like this, it could've been a bash script. That said, the environments in different CI's are different so it won't be totally portable, but still applies.
Spotlight has really been bothering me lately, for months now, and it’s not even indexing all the time. I disabled all but applications and the calculator, because that’s all I use Spotlight for, and it still can’t find some apps that are in /Applications. Sometimes it’s some apps, sometimes it’s everything, and after rebooting it’ll sometimes reindex. No idea what’s going on, but today might be the day I install Quicksilver, if that’s still a thing.
I also had to type over reindex 3 times to get it to stick :)
Most (all?) Spotlight replacements depend on the same underlying index and system services that Spotlight provides and uses. High chance Quicksilver is just making 'mdfind' calls like everything else, especially since it doesn't look maintained anymore.
LaunchBar doesn't use Spotlight's data. And so, as a result, can't search for data inside files. That said, it provides a Search in Spotlight command – that you can assign a shortcut, if you wish – which returns its results in a new Finder window.
If you’re showing off a UI framework, I shouldn’t be accidentally scrolling left and right on the page on mobile / my iPhone. Couldn’t be bothered to scroll down the page to look at components while accidentally activating horizontal scrolling.
