> my perception of the judge being biased. That perception was possibly influenced by the HN title "Siding with Amazon" vs the title the NY Times used "Judge Halts Work on Microsoft’s JEDI Contract in Victory for Amazon". At no point in the article do the words "sides" or "siding" appear. Edit: The HN title has been changed since I wrote this.

  They usually run multiple headlines for each story, and I think they're A-B tested over time.

"Judge sides with side A" is to my recollection pretty standard terminology in legal reporting. Interesting that they felt the need to change it.
