Yeah, I run a macOS server (on 10.13.6 no less) that regularly has several months of uptime without issue, and I ran my new MacBook Pro for six months since I bought it perfectly fine without rebooting it until a recent update forced me to. I’m not sure what the problem here is.

    there may be some “secret sauce” here that combines a certain version of OS, hardware and DHCP. I thought it was an interesting read and thought I would share.

    I suppose it is interesting, and I wasn’t complaining about you posting it. I was more a bit puzzled about the somewhat grandiose claims that the headline makes. That’s on the author, not on you.
