First time I've seen a windows update on the front page of HN. What's particularly interesting or news worthy about this update?
- lr0 2y agoNothing. As you can see almost 99% of the comments are not about it but about Windows itself and unrelated questions. This is a very common phenomenon in HN.

- wkat4242 2y agoTrue, I do wonder how it got upvoted then though
- _fat_santa 2y agoIMHO It's better to think about these posts as "proxy discussions posts". I think many HN users yearn for a post where they can argue about a particular topic but straight up posting "Hey lets discuss and argue about Windows" would be seen as a low quality post, even though everyone secretly wants to dive into the comments on those kinds of posts. I find that the HN community has many unique and charming aspects to it compared to other communities on the internet.

- throwaway888abc 2y agoIt serve as reminder that Windows (my laptop) will be potentially broken again ? Alert message ? Upvoted the news, appreciate. Will stay vigilant
