Macos big sur version 11.5 29/25/2023 ![]() I watched my father die with dementia a couple of years ago, and as I’m now 67, I’m determined not to let that happen to me. And although they’re a lot of work, researching and writing those and these articles keeps my brain ticking over, and stops me from becoming a vegetable quite so quickly. It’s bad planning on my part, and I should learn to say no more, but I hate to let people down. Until October, together with another commitment, I’m fully double-booked every week. Then I have the rest of the month to devote my time to this blog. Normally I write for print over the course of one week each month, for my regular six-page Genius Tips section. This year, that seems to have fallen to me, which is great in many ways, but it’s also a great deal of work. Among other things, he used to write some of the major features, including the year’s new macOS review and an article about preparing to upgrade. Late last year, one of my former editors at MacUser and a major freelance contributor to MacFormat (and Mac|Life) Adam Banks died suddenly. The problem is particularly severe at present, because of my workload for magazines like MacFormat. You are appreciated and I’ll personally understand whatever you choose to do and hope you figure out what’s best for you! (Or hell, just turn off comments when you need a break!)Īgain, thank you for all your effort and work to share valuable tools and knowledge over the years. Maybe just 1 Mac/art post a week and find a nice way to tell folks that you aren’t able to offer tech support via comments or something like that. I’m personally hoping you can strike a better blog/life balance if you end up wanting to continue with the blog at all. (And those who don’t understand aren’t worth your time and energy investment anyways.) I know I’m not the only one who has relied on you for incredibly valuable insights over the years, but you gotta do what’s best for you and I’m sure your readers and users will understand whatever you choose. ![]() I definitely understand that struggle, but maybe not quite on the scale of how prolific you have and continue to be with the daily blog posts and your tools! Thank you! But to release a 3.45 GB update without explaining what it’s supposed to fix is about the most unhelpful thing that Apple could do just over two weeks after the last 3.1 GB update. It appears that the bugs which this fixes in Safari and those frameworks were deemed significant enough to merit a ‘patch’ update before Big Sur goes into security-only maintenance on the release of Monterey. Among other private frameworks to have minor increments in build number are FileProviderDaemon, and other Safari frameworks.SafariServices and WebKit frameworks have an incremented build number to match that of Safari. ![]()
