- Sal Saghoians, "Czar of User Scripting & Automation," has departed from Apple. This roundup compiled by Micahel Tsai offers highlights of comments from the community. I join the mass speculation that this is a bad sign for the future of people like me who spend as much time automating Macs as they do working on them. The reason this is notable is not that Sal was let go, it's that his position was *eliminated*. It's not a matter of personal conflict, it's a sign that Apple might not see a future for the automation that I love on macOS (and hoped for on iOS, someday).
