Oh, for sure. It’s extremely unlikely anyone else on HN is running a personal agent - that would be absurd!

This sounds like a fun project, so I went ahead and threw my personal agent at it. I’m having it put together a summary as well, and will reply to this comment with it later if I remember.

If by chance I happen to break it, I’ll be sure to make contact with you and forward the logs I have, and perhaps let you chat with my agent if you’d like to see what it did.

The article is about screenshots from pre-2020, if I’m not mistaken.

This has been happening for years, and the right was similarly impacted under Biden and, to a lesser extent, Obama.

To be clear, that doesn’t make it right in any way. I just hope that now that both sides have felt that way we might actually see some change.

> It is the best selling tablet brand, but that doesn't mean much when you look at the absolute garbage the rest of the industry is putting out.

That’s where I am.

I love my iPad, because I love the tablet form factor. I used an Android tablet for years prior to the iPad Pro releasing, and iPadOS is much better. I’ve played with Android tablets periodically since but they don’t seem to care about the form factor at all.

Just because it’s the best doesn’t mean it’s good, though. I don’t understand how they can justify selling a $300+ keyboard for a $1,700 device and never fix long-standing bugs with keyboard use, much less continue to add regressions in new releases that aren’t fixed.

Yep.

iPadOS 27 broke many keyboard use cases for me, including very simple things like using tab to move to the next field on a form in Safari. It worked in iPadOS 26, but doesn’t now.

This adds to the bug where switching between apps with modifier keys tends to cause those modifiers to “stick”. That bug has been there for years, and prevents me from using my iPad as a programming environment even though the software support is there.

Agreed - and I actually went up the 13” iPad Pro this time around specifically because I wanted to see if window management was better on it. It’s not.

That’s why do it, though.

I’ve worked on a slaughter floor before, and while it’s certainly not an enjoyable experience I can say with all honesty that a great deal is done to minimize suffering.

Treason is a line with which I’m comfortable.

> A flowchart subgraph keeps its own direction even when it links to nodes outside the subgraph.

This, in and of itself, is sufficient reason for me to switch, even if it were slower than Mermaid.js.

I’ve not even made it through the list yet and I’m sold.

I wasn’t asking because I trust them; I was asking because their denying it materially changes the situation.

If anything, the fact that they didn’t immediately deny it leads me to believe that they at least took the concern seriously.

Thanks!

I entered tech in 2007 - I strongly disagree that this is another “hype cycle”. This is the fundamental transformation of our industry.

They have formal proofs included, that’s the point.
