Please read Resolve issues caused by changing the permissions of items in your home folder.


As for the old "disk permissions" read this excerpt from Repair disk permissions with Disk Utility:


"Beginning with OS X El Capitan, system file permissions are automatically protected. It's no longer necessary to verify or repair permissions with Disk Utility."
