How to Add a User to the Sudoers File in Mac OS X
Advanced users may need to add a user account to the sudoers file, which allows that user to run certain commands with root privileges.
To greatly simplify what that means, these newly privileged user accounts will then be able to execute commands without getting permission denied errors or having to prefix a terminal command with sudo. This may be helpful (or necessary) for some complex situations, but it poses a security risk for others, thus this is not something that should be casually changed.
Generally speaking, most users are better off using an admin account, using sudo on a per command basis, or enabling the root user.

This is undeniably convenient, but not every user wants these toggles to be readily available to anyone who picks up their device, and in some higher security situations these functions may be considered inappropriate to have easy access to. If security is more important than convenience, consider disabling access to Control Center from the lock screen.

The tap-to-click ability is enabled by default on most PC laptops, while on the Mac side of things it’s usually disabled by default. For the unfamiliar, tap-to-click means that a single tap or touch on the MacBook trackpad or Magic Trackpad is registered as a click, thereby preventing the need to actually press down the trackpad to click on a screen item.
