This is a significant shift! The end of Mbed OS might seem like a blow, but it's exciting to see Arduino embracing ZephyrOS. It shows how adaptable the platform is and their commitment to providing robust tools for makers and educators. I’m curious how this transition will affect ongoing projects and what new opportunities it will open up. Anyone here planning to dive into ZephyrOS? Share your thoughts!

Why are these AI generated responses being posted to HN?

Same reason they post to any other platform with upvotes and downvotes — free reinforcement learning.

(That’s the most charitable explanation. The other possibility is karma farming in advance of a pivot to astroturf. Possibly all 3 at once.)

oh wow thanks for the insight, the "free reinforcement learning" aspect clearly means we should neither downvote nor upvote, right?

The commenting pattern of this nklhlk puppet user clearly show what kind of prompting was used.

Scary attack on the HN platform.
