It also explicitly says "rental", so I'm not sure how one can possibly arrive at the conclusion that they meant "$2 to own an H100"

It didn't say that at the time, the article still has the submitted title: $2 H100s: How the GPU Bubble Burst

Even so, I genuinely don't see how anyone who might be clicking this article could possibly interpret it the way GP is saying.

Well, case in point, I did. When I read the title I thought – "IIRC these were going for thousands, could they have really dropped so hard? Well, sometimes companies, cars, real estate properties cost $1, but there's always of course a catch. Let's see what the catch is here... <click> ah, it's a 4x reduction of rental price, boring"

Anyone who isn't an "AI" fanatic can and will interpret the title as the sale price :)

Holy fuck.

"Good morning!"

"Who are you talking to? Me? You haven't specified who you're interacting with. Which morning? Today? What metric are you measuring by good? This is too confusing for me."

"Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?”

The HN title has been editorialized, perhaps recently.

The original article title is:
