dispatch_sync(dispatch_get_main_queue() UI weirdness

This is for MacOS not iOS. If your running code on a GCD queue dispatch_sync(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ //do UI stuff }); is pretty much the way to do UI stuff on the main thread/queue which seems to work well for iOS. MacOS seems to be a different story. Try this for a simple example -
