Not every startup idea needs to exist, and the world doesn't owe anyone attention to their startup. I can also imagine bootstrapping a startup that squeezes juice out of a bag using powerful motors and running into widespread skepticism, because someone did it. The answer there isn't to write "Hand-squeezed juice from actual fruits is bad" articles, the answer is to find a better startup idea.

(hey love your thinkpad posts btw <3) Yeah I mean, I'm bearish on their idea too; but I'd expect there to be some discussion of it vs. what's in this thread, which is mostly like "this post is thin, feels like just a tricky ad". Or, idk, I'm open to the "huh, I suppose we now find ourselves on the slippery slope of 'everything is paid/advertiser content', FML" discussion too, which is happening. I guess I just thought there was a world where this company forgot the "by the way our company automates this" on the post, and we didn't need to jump to conclusions or w/e. But, maybe we do?

  Hm, I haven't used a ThinkPad in half a decade so I think you're thinking of someone else. :) 'ggreer perhaps?

    Eek yeah you're right sorry. Though I have read "signalfd is useless" and found it super informative. Lot of cobwebs up in the old attic apparently haha.
