Apple is already beta testing the 15.2 versions of iThingies OSes and the 12.1 of macOS. That is a lot of major updates for newly released OSes. I still believe they must have taken a huge hit in productivity due to the pandemic causing developers to work from home. Too many distractions I guess. At any rate the bug counts were off the chart and several promised features were not ready for the initial releases.

That is a shame too. I had always advocated for more work-at-home opportunities to help lesson the transportation impact on the environment. But it looks like this accidental experiment in same was a failure, at least in the tech industry. Looks like they are going to have to go back to chaining people to their desks. Maybe in the future new management techniques will be developed for work-at-home employees to ensure work gets done and the quality is top notch. I also noticed that school-at-home in my location was pretty much a failure too. Again, perhaps they can develop better management techniques to ensure the kids are actually studying, the teachers are actually teaching, and the kids are getting the educational attention they need.

Oh well, no discipline equals a major failure. Figure out how to retain discipline and maybe it will work better in the future. It would certainly be beneficial not to have to cram employees into overcrowded geographical locations near work centers and let them work from home, even half way around the globe.
