Allen School 配发的 MacBook

UW CSE 的 PhD 要约信中提到新入学的研究生都会获得一个免费电脑（有多种选择），我选了（标准选项里的）MacBook。这篇博文记录我初探 macOS 的事情。作为探索结果，我居然又给微软报了一个 bug！

Default font smoothing parameters on MacBook Pro 13-inch might be suboptimal

Having received my MacBook Pro 13-inch, I started to alternate between my Surface Book and MacBook, to get used to macOS and keep everything synchronised. Today when I was transcribing my notes to OneNote, I noticed a rendering problem on the screen. Propaganda (from Apple fanboys) has it that macOS supports high DPI displays well (of course including its very own screen), it turns out the story isn’t as true as the propaganda claims. Later, it was revealed that the reason is font smoothing is on (by default for me), and turning it off resolves the problem.
