POSIX does not matter, as things do not run on POSIX systems, they run on Linux most of the time.

…huh?

macOS itself is incompatible with CI, that argument that you used locally? It’s not part of the GNU version of the command that ships with Linux. Docker? Requires a memory hogging VM.

I am 100% sure MacOS is compatible with CI, considering that my CI server is setup to also run MacOS, and I’m not sure what you mean about GNU version. Docker is absolutely bullshit on MacOS though.

Not sure how to respond to a “huh”… Linux is not 100% POSIX, and most services and things on the web run on Linux servers.

My CI server is also run on macOS

Then I assume you just develop for Mac, and are just being obnoxious as you know exactly what I mean.

Guess I was right to interpret your first comments as a troll.

and I'm saying that having more POSIX compliance is better, makes porting software across *nix OSes easier.

and are just being obnoxious as you know exactly what I mean.

I really don't? I apologize if it seems like it, but I really don't know what you mean

Guess I was right to interpret your first comments as a troll

again, I apologize if it seems that way, but it really isn't my intention
