I think the most important reason to reduce consumption is due to everything being carefully curated. Actual issues from a particular fruit company like the butterfly keyboard was cause of getting flagged, you weren't allowed to talk about it. Similar problems happen to this day.
Mac fans being rabid Mac apologists isn't something leaving HN is going to change.
Wow, this is such a simple application of ML and it is incredibly valuable. On their website, they charge $100/month per device or $1000/year per device [0] and I bet they're making a killing. [0] https://countthings.com/en/

I wish I could get a bead on how useful ML is. Hackernews makes me think it’s all hype.
It turns out companies have wildly different maturities and proficiencies with these precursors, in addition to simple company ages. Many from having under-invested in actual (not consulting BS) technology transformation and skilling for decades.
Consequently, ML is ridiculous to consider and doomed to failure for company A. While company B can toss a simple model at their well-architected data systems and get immediate ROI.
This is underappreciated, because VPs and consultants are not typically in the business of saying "Our systems are out of date and have poor hygiene, and we can't do this new thing because of that."

Users flag content on HN for dubious, political reasons all the time. Why would this need to be a conspiracy, rather than simply a vocal minority?

I don't know about others, but because a lot of IT news comes to me from American medias, I _always_ consider it hype. The reason is cultural: american can't seem to do without superlatives. They didn't eat good carrots yesterday, there were AMAZING carrots. They don't introduce me to their friends, but to their VERY BEST friends. They are always EXCITED to do X and SO something about Y. The result is that none of th…
It's INCREDIBLY annoying.
You need to know that the underlying technology is really basic and old. 15 years ago, I used a free library (blob counter) to build a VB.net application that counted and "sexed" fruit flies. The app as presented in this website is really similar. No rocket science going on here.
