Thanks for this! I love it! What's missing, however, is the Late 2009 Server version of the original mini design, which had a second HDD instead of an optical drive (and therefore, also no slot at the front). From a quick Google image search: appledb.dev/device/ident...

"41% of workers have encountered such AI-generated output, costing nearly two hours of rework per instance and creating downstream productivity, trust, and collaboration issues."

It likely wasn‘t. But then again, negative feedback didn’t stop Apple introducing other privacy permissions and alerts in the past.

There's also no mention in the macOS 26 release notes - and the last AppKit release notes were for macOS 14.

What happened to it? Is it still coming?

I had assumed that by not providing an OS or version number for deprecation, I had found a way to silence the compiler warning. Since that's not the case and it's just moving the warning, I'm deleting the original post. Sorry for the confusion. 2/2

Meaning that the deprecation warnings inside the respective methods disappear. But I now see this just moves the deprecation warning up to the calling sites of the methods. I didn't notice this when I posted this. 1/2

After checking the privacy info available in Xcode and settings in the ChatGPT account, it at least seems like it should also be possible to use an account and still not have your code used for training their models: bsky.app/profile/feli...

Presumably though, "your ChatGPT account settings […] will apply" when signing in from Xcode - so that, if you turned off the option "Improve the model for everyone" in your ChatGPT account, it also /should/ not use your data for training its models.

This document tells you which of your Mac's ports is the DFU port: support.apple.com/en-us/120694

Avoid that port when installing macOS on a external drive.

Why? I had plugged the SSD into the wrong USB-C port: on Apple Silicon Macs, you're supposed to NOT use the DFU port for this (support.apple.com/en-us/111336) - and of course I had. 🤦‍♂️

First impression of Xcode 26 auto-generating a comment for a new localizable string based on the surrounding source code: really good - it nailed it! 👌

The ChatGPT/AI stuff worked nicely, but as soon as I tried to run something in the Simulator, the Mac started to swap massively and everything came to a crawl - with really just Xcode + Simulator running.

Looks like 16GB of RAM really is the absolute minimum for development going forward. 2/2

I kinda get why the first three don't work. But I really don't understand how installing on an external drive should hinder AI usage. 2/2 #WWDC25
