Existing users who read Bloomberg’s phrase “new downloads” as “it’s a new download since I just downloaded it today” will be sorely disappointed. (Yes, I am totally expecting some HN readers to read “new downloads” and then consider a download’s ctime while asking “is it a new download?” rather than realize the above.)
