      @scottalanmiller Why OS X? You have all those nice and shiney Steam / GOG / Origin games just calling your name!

      But seriously... I quit with OS X around version 10.8 (MountainLion?)... Everything after that has just been painfully slow for me, and in general just flat out doesn't work well. (I know a lot of people who have it and love it, but that has not been my experience at all.

        If I recall correctly it is a Change.org laptop that he has to do development on.

            And I can only assume they have added something to it causing the unstable issues. Prior to moving to Chicago, I was on site at various clients at least 3 days a week using my MacBook Pro exclusively and I never have these kinds of problems.

                No agruments there... although I have ample anecdotal evidence that supports @scottalanmiller 's observations.

                      @MattSpeller Why not use a 2 stroke hotdog powered trolling motor (read: A pair of oars powered by you)... ?

                                    Trying to mitigate horrific recommendations being given on SW. It's amazing with so much good information there, how much people post the most senseless, random nonsense to things that should be pretty obvious. Especially when the OP totally knew what to do and why and was just looking for verification and literally every post but one was totally crazy with no logic or reasoning behind why they made expensive recommendations for something super simple.

                                          Thankfully it got better and turned into a good discussion. But those early responses were all very clearly people who knew a lot less than the OP and were just throwing out wild guesses about things they knew nothing about as if they were serious recommendations.

                                            That is the way I feel when going back and trying to fix old SQL Jobs that somebody else keeps messing up, lol.

                                            It's like they take random bits of code and shuffle them around to see what it does.
