@wilshipley I think most people thought the unreasonable part was that they shut down his main account without notification or explanation.
@siegel @grynspan Which may be fine when amortized, but in my case I only needed to check each file once, so it was all wasted vs. stat().
@siegel @grynspan With large numbers of files (some years ago), the lower level stuff seemed to have a lot of caching overhead.
@grynspan @siegel The NSURL API is nice for these higher level properties. Not sure about, say, NSURLIsDirectoryKey (speed, caching).
@grynspan @siegel Got a bunch of crash reports and a frantic e-mail right after shipping, so apparently customers are using 10.10.
@grynspan @siegel I miss being able to use old SDKs to prevent these types of bugs. But I guess in theory Swift addresses this.
@wilshipley Didn’t he say it was his mother? imore.com/dash-developer… Or are you referring to something after that?
@siegel That actually makes me feel better. Thanks. But looks like it’s time to file a bug in Deploymate for not catching it.
Stopped using LSCopyItemInfoForURL on 10.12 because it wasn’t working, but turns out the replacement NSURLIsApplicationKey crashes on 10.10.

@lapcatsoftware Must have been a different bug, because I was seeing this with the release version.
@lapcatsoftware I switched to os_log because of problems with regular NSLog messages not appearing in Sierra.
