For the past 10 months, I’ve used a 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro supplied by my employer. Most days it’s great, with exceptional battery life and excellent speeds, and is an overall massive upgrade over my previous 2016 model.
But some days it’s nearly impossible to get anything done. More than any Mac I’ve owned, this MacBook regularly experiences freezes, crashes, and restarts that often seem to be related to memory issues. It’s been nearly impossible to pinpoint a pattern, but I assumed it was something installed on my machine by my company.

I've had a nice weekend messing with my little PHP scripts that deals with data feeds and such on my little Mac mini, after I switched from MAMP to Homebrew. It's nice that everything is working as I expected. (Unlike, well, SwiftUI.)
