I actually think most security bugs have very low impact unfortunately

Prison personnel are often misaligned when it comes to the wellbeing of their inmates.

The great thing about prison tablets is that they are cheap and offer a low-cost selection of reading materials, with no incentive to have some scummy third party company in the loop to profit off their monopoly.

The first thing prisoners will do is destroy the tablet. I'm okay with both restricting prisoners' abilities to get direct mail, and I'm okay with allowing subscriptions go directly to the prison library. I am not inclined to want to give prisoners more privileges and I am inclined to remove as many privileges as possible, especially for first time offenders so that they realize that the path they are on is the wrong one.

I’m not ok with this

This is a valid way to solve the problem.

Yes, it’s made up.

They do, but documentation is not always complete or correct.

It’s “footprint” and no it does not do that

Perhaps it did a while ago. Now, https://www.bazhenov.me/posts/activity-monitor-anatomy/ is a good read. Thanks. It's much better than RSS, although I'm at still not sure that I like the inclusion of private compressed memory. In any case, thanks for the correction.

I think a surprising number of kernel engineers like Macs

Builds

Which Apple gladly sells their own Xcode Cloud infrastructure instead.

Yes. Somehow it’s actually even worse

You don't need any feature from the old server OS for this, though. You just need your workstation to be on a network.

My workstation is ill-suited to be a CI runner, even if it is networked

Right. A way to rephrase this would be: what feature from the old Mac Os X Server is missing from the current macOS desktop to make it possible?

A network connected to what

They’re not in swap if those processes wake up to do things

Yeah but they mostly barely do, and only the memory they actually access gets used, as opposed to everything they've allocated. You can observe the actual aggregate usage in Activity Monitor. This is why it's no problem at all to run something actively using 10-12 GB of memory on a 16 GB Mac.
