 With macOS the second arg needs to be a `void *` and this also necessitated some
 casts to `int` (on the second arg) in the call to `write(2)` (in `read()`).
 
+Later Cody corrected the mistake where the `"hello, world!"` string was on one
+line rather than two lines which the author told us (Landon) that they liked.
