macOS System Preference Pane Links

Some might be outdated.
Taken from (404 as of today): https://macosxautomation.com/system-prefs-links.html

Example

$ open "x-apple.systempreferences:com.apple.preference.security?General"

macOS 10.15 System Preference Panes

Below are a list of System Preference pane URLs and paths that can be accessed with scripting to assist users with enabling macOS security settings without having to walk them through launching System Preferences, finding panes, and scrolling to settings. Not all panes have an accessible anchor and some are OS specific.

To find the Pane ID of a specific pane, open the System Preferences app and select the desired Preference Pane. With the pane selected, open the ScriptEditor.app and run the following script to copy the current Pane ID to your clipboard and display any available anchors:

tell application "System Preferences"
	set CurrentPane to the id of the current pane
	set the clipboard to CurrentPane

How to Find ANY Icon

Open the application such that you see the icon on your screen.
Open Activity Monitor
Double click the name of the application (i.e. Finder or System Preferences)
Select "Open Files and Ports"
Copy the output to a file and then grep for .icns

Similarly you could run this command, but it may take several minutes to complete:

Big O notation is a way for us to describe how long it takes for an algorithm to run. We can use Big O notation to compare how efficient different approaches to solving a problem are. In big O notation we describe the runtime of an algorithm in terms of how quickly the runtime grows as the input to the algorithm gets very, very large. Let’s break down the definition a bit:

How quickly the runtime grows:
- We can’t give an exact amount of time that an algorithm will run for because it depends on too many things. Is it running on a supercomputer, a really old desktop, or a calculator? Which language is it written in? Is the computer running anything else at the same time? All of these can affect the runtime, so we remove these variables by focusing on how the runtime grows.
Based on the input:
Since we are removing runtime from the description we need another way to express the speed - we can’t use seconds anymore. Instead we’ll use the size of the input to describe it. We will use
