Still trying to update XCode so I can compile something. The problem is the bar has a WiFi access point that kicks me off the network when I've downloaded too much. 
Of course, I changed my Mac's address (I mean, MAC address), and reconnected to the WiFi to try again. Crossing my fingers that it'll complete. I already updated the OS using the previous MAC address.
Of course, I just admitted to the same crime as Aaron Swartz, changing WiFi MAC address to evade filters. Hopefully I won't have a 100 year sentence to look forward to.
Yea! The update is finally complete! Oh, wait, it needs more....
Sigh. It's still not the right version. I need XCode 11 not XCode 10. I just updated to 10.1 from 10.0 instead of 11.0.
Apparently I need a newer version of the operating system, yet I have the newest version of the operating system.
So, going the normal route of "Software Update" didn't work. Going to the app store and searching for "Mojave" didn't work. Using google, finding a page, that then had a direct link to the App Store download is what finally worked. Another 6 gig download.
I'm now about 20 gigabytes of downloads into the process of simply wanting to compile a little bit of code.
