  This article is actually the opposite of a dupe: it's a denial from the company that the article you linked to is accurate. That's literally the first paragraph in the article. "Foxconn Technology Group said it will proceed with plans to build a factory in Wisconsin after U.S. President Donald Trump and company Chairman Terry Gou discussed the matter. The development follows reports that the company was considering jettisoning the large-scale project that had promised to bring 13,000 jobs to the Badger State."

    Exactly. Didnt say dupe or put a date (which would imply dupe) on purpose. I dont need to tell you it's better to read the news a week+ late if it's from a news maker[0]... those baked in assumptions are so much easier to identify. Looking back on the North Korea threads is going to be interesting. [0]: https://i.imgur.com/VUdcIou.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VUdcIou.jpg PS. The [dupe] flag was not me, and I doubt it's an actual dupe. It would be nice if HN required the [dupe] to link. I had fun failing to dig up your contact info: jk at v 6 y net
