> Under certain conditions, an external USB NIC stops working and acts as if it is not powered and shows no link. Trying another cable, another NIC, another switch port, no luck. But a quick visit to Network Preferences, deleting and recreating the “network service” in MacOS Settings brings it back to life

I too have this really annoying issue where my Mac decides a USB-C or Micro-SD peripheral is no longer readable if I am working through multiple SD cards and backing them up, not sure why. Would love to work at Apple for 2 weeks with Claude to fix it and then quit and come back home, tbh would love to just work at all sorts of companies to fix really obnoxious "never to be fixed" bugs, Discord's abysmal roles stack would be on my list as well.
