- werber 7y agoYeah, i automatically assumed they meant released.
- andai 7y agoI think it's more like, when you drop your phone, it lands on its face, and stops being a phone.
- JohnFen 7y agoI totally forgot that "drop" could mean "release". The usage of the word here seemed entirely unambiguous to me.
- Angostura 7y agoIt was unambiguous to me too, until I started reading HN where it seemed to consistently used to mean 'released' or 'shipped'.
