Follow-up comment: I love how the author’s one brief take-down shot at VLC is currently the dominant criticism in the HN comments (inc. mine). 10,000+ words and the entire lot is being questioned because of one dubious throwaway comment about VLC.
A lesson to learn in that.
Lol
There was an article[1] yesterday where a single poor word choice derailed much of the comment section with rat-holing and nitpicking until the author revised the article. HN's gotta HN.

If you're talking about the use of the word "hover", I think that was quite justified, given that it was a critical element of the claim, and the poor wording made it neigh impossible to reproduce the author's claim.
