I worked for Apple from 1983 (employee number 408) until 1996 in sales, marketing and systems engineering.

I 'been there' and still support the platform in the face of constant criticism and belittlement from co-workers.

I do not post until I read the docs, code a sample and observe the results.

If the results do not match the docs I ask the question as it is more productive that spelunking Apple documentation for what at times are semantical obscurities.

In 1985 I taught myself 6800K assembler so I could program a Mac on a Mac ... at that time the only way to do so.

I have a degree in math from Berkeley.

I know how to study, learn, experiment and implement.

Screwing around as a mental exercise when there are resources available is total nonsense.

So, please, knock off the judgmental and be helpful for the platform that is only 9% of the market.
