TL;DR: Google is consolidating behind the whims of the hardware org, which are orthogonal to OS' that can't ship (what ppl outside Google call Fuschsia), and here, OS' that can't sell premium 1st party hardware. The old platform org head left recently, combine that with the CEO's eagerness to display Efficiency™ and the lack of interest the CEO has in practical work, that means VP shuffle people around to keep constant/shrinking headcount and the CEO loves it.

Fuchsia has already shipped. It's also called Fuchsia internally.

Let's not be obtuse -- if you're familiar with internal info on this, you should/could understand exactly what I'm talking about. If you're just trying to do a drive-by dunk about spelling, and just thought it was cute to add on "internal" while doing so...more power to you, I guess.

Considering how you mangled the name of the OS, I have a hard believing you're remotely familiar with the internals of Fuchsia.

Yes, there's an extra S in Fuchsia so I'm 3 trolls in a trench coat pretending to be me.

I hope your day gets better! However you're feeling, it's temporary, it's not worth trolling and doing a know-nothing thing in public, it's too demeaning to yourself.

People can see my comment, profile, and site, and then see you're completely anonymous.

Then they're left with either: A) you're so hung up on an extra S you're lying on purpose B) you're a vindictive liar: you don't care enough to find out who I am, even though it's right in my profile, but you do care enough to pretend it's unknowable or C) youre having some sort of psychotic break from reality

You seem to be very troubled to resort to such childish attacks because my opinion differs from yours. You've presented no evidence that you have any internal knowledge of Fuchsia.

Okay so you're still refusing to acknowledge who it is? Great talk, thanks for your thoughtful contributions. Btw, you haven't expressed any opinion here other than "THERES AN EXTRA S" and some weird insistence you can't figure out who OP is. idk what conversation you're inventing in your head, but it really is embarrassing, especially when they clearly had the scoop on the news by a couple weeks. Nobody can take you seriously here, it's obvious trolling

Why are you using an alternate alias to reply to me? Did you get confused and mix up your aliases? I just have one.

Because HN caps posts, and I wasn't going to let you off with a post 24 hours later with more lazy trolling.

Both of my Nest devices that got the update were bricked into an unrecoverable state. Forums and Reddit are full of similar stories. "Shipped" is a very generous label.

I don't know anyone outside the Fuchsia team that takes it seriously.

They're a troll with an extreme sense of grievance and unclear motivations. Perhaps this whole extra-S thing is actually it, but I hope not, for their sake.

Now you're attacking me in replies you're not even part of? You should seek mental health help as you don't seem like a very well person.

Both of my Nest Hub devices got the seamless update without any issues.
