Use Touch ID for Sudo on Mac
What type of work or activity on macOS requires sudo repeatedly enough that it needs to be automated in this way? I mainly need sudo for the occasional dmesg or for adjusting routes after activating my VPN for work.

Not that I install new software all that often, but macports requires sudo for quite a lot of operations.
