> Apple seems to have lost its academic roots, and suffers for it now. Or I should say, its customers suffer while it grosses almost half a trillion dollars per year. At least with vibe coding we can just whip up a Preview app in an afternoon, so maybe none of this matters anymore.

Eh, I'm with Apple on this one: we can just use Ghostscript. Apple's move effectively forces the few applications that need to use PostScript on macOS to migrate from a proprietary PostScript implementation to an OSS one, which strikes me as ultimately a good thing.
