At some point I might try to determine whether I can get a useful python3 setup using Macports, but it is time-consuming and the status pages do not help, as the comments indicate. When I tried a few weeks ago, I could install either py38 or py39, and that is fine if I want to write "hello worl

2021-03-07 Thread Todd Doucet
I think one can only get so far with purely qualitative analysis of the characteristics of SSDs and HDs and then the end of that analysis will be one-size-fits all advice, for example "recommended" or "not recommended" for servers. Surely the answer might vary depending on the particular server

I have read everything I can about this warning, but none of it corresponds to exactly my situation, hence this report. I have a brand new Mac Mini M1, and a fresh MacPorts installation. This is not an upgrade--I have never had MacPorts on this machine, ever. I definitely have both Xcode 12.4
