Tell us what you came looking for and could not find, what you found but did not trust, or what you
would want to exist before you would send a colleague here.
Requests for specific articles are welcome and useful. If a request turns into an article, we will

What are you building, and what did you have to work around? Encoding negotiation, clipboard
behaviour, authentication, session lifecycle: the awkward parts are the ones worth writing down,
because they are the ones missing from the documentation.

after an update, with nothing obviously wrong.
If you have hit that, say which macOS version you moved from and to, what stopped working, and
whether you found a route back. Version numbers matter more than usual here, because the answer is

something specific and unglamorous: a platform you had to support, a protocol feature you needed, a
packaging decision that made deployment tolerable.
What did you pick, and what was the deciding factor? Equally useful: what did you try first and…Read more

allowed to install and who signs off on it.
If you tunnel, what do you tunnel over, and what does that cost you in setup time when a colleague
has to reproduce it? If you do not tunnel, what compensating controls are you relying on?

whatever burned them last.
Ours usually starts with: is the server actually running, is the port reachable from where the
viewer sits, and is something in between quietly dropping the connection.
What is on your list, and what order do you work…Read more
