Isn't it though? It's the "password" to the secure enclave which then provides a "password" to the OS.
Edit: I agree with your statement that "a password is something i can change if it gets compromised. a password is secure from others." Which is why I like that there is a method for disabling TouchID/FaceID with iOS 11.
Thanks for being so open to sharing. Do you have a blog? How do I find your blog? Before you posted this comment how would I even know to look you up.
Just because someone on the internet had a particular setup doesn't mean I want to follow it. Or that I have time to track down several people's opinions.
Getting install stats directly from the homebrew project, which I know because I use it, is infinitely more useful to me and much more easily discoverable. that's just my opinion though and you're entitled to your own.
+1 Though I do leave the occasional TODO or FIXME comment in code I prefer using deprecation attributes so that it results in a compiler warning. I spend a lot of time in Xcode so for me I like that autocomplete shows the method with a strikethru and the compiler warning is highlighted inline. It becomes glaringly obvious to everyone that we're adding to the technical debt by using the API.
Actually that's (almost) exactly how I did it joining Apple. I had already interviewed and been turned down with the group I wanted to join twice. Now I was coming in for another interview with a different hiring manager. I was willing to put up with another possible rejection because I really wanted to work at Apple. So I worked with one of the recruiters and had setup interviews with 6 other groups. I did 2-3 interviews a week and it was grueling but in the end I had several groups that wanted to hire me including the original team I wanted to join. They could only make one offer but nothing stopped me from interviewing until I was blue in the face.
EDIT: Another note, at least three of the roles I interviewed for had homework assignments. None took longer than 2 hours and I actually enjoyed them and the subsequent interviews much better.
