There were a number of exciting announcements from Apple at WWDC 2024, from macOS Sequoia to Apple Intelligence. However, a subtle addition to Xcode 16 — the development environment for Apple platforms, like iOS and macOS — is a feature called Predictive Code Completion.

There’s a memory requirement for Predictive Code Completion in Xcode 16, and it’s the closest thing we’ll get from Apple to an admission that 8GB of memory isn’t really enough for a new Mac in 2024.

        I really like their pagewide xl printers, but those are purely aimed at businesses. Just to name one thing I like :D

        And those xl printers are the only thing that I can think off. I won’t even consider buying a current HP computer/laptop/small printer/…
