That's a bit of a rude comment, I found the story to be very interesting. The device itself is from 2002.
Most people don't read everything published on the internet annually, and things that are no longer trending on TikTok or HackerNews can still be interesting.
I guess I am just getting old?
- asdefghyk 5y agoI agree . I thought it was a excellent article with good research and problem solving. It may motivate me to get my even older palm out of my storage and rabbit around for several books and other doc I have some where. Thank you to the author.
- asdefghyk 5y agoI have a palm3 from 1998. I recall I loaded a submarine game which was quite addictive. I also recall there was a Palm Treo around 2006? and later https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_Treo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_Treo Probably influenced Steve Jobs idea of the 1st iPhone Would be interesting to examine the differences between later palms and 1st iPhone ......
- 0cVlTeIATBs 5y agoIt is convention on hn to tag non-current articles with the year in the title, and this tag is missing, so the comment was likely not meant to be dismissive of the content.
- rob74 5y agoAFAIK the canonical way to do that would be a comment containing only the text "(2019)"
- flobosg 5y agoPresumably the intention of the GP was to mention it so that the year gets added on the submission’s title, as is usually the case with older articles.
- mulmen 5y agoThere's nothing rude about providing context.
