Please don't take HN threads on generic tangents [1] and especially not snarky ones. This isn't a response to the article - it's simply repeating a pre-existing association to a recognized name.

We're trying for more interesting conversation here and that requires specifics, not generics.

Another way of putting this is that we want reflective comments rather than reflexive ones [2].

While you're at it: a couple of the OP's comments in this thread have been flagged and are now dead, which really is a shame.

Most probably they got classified as genai. Looks like users have vouched for them all now.

Can't say I've had better experiences with GE appliances but their jet engines seem fine.

I also can't imagine what you thought this comment was contributing to the conversation but that's not my problem I guess.

Agreed on all points, and I'd like to point out that most GE appliances aren't actually made by GE. They're essentially selling their name to a manufacturer. Wouldn't be surprised if Samsung is the same.

Frankly a dumb move since it tarnishes their brands, but.. profits?
