OMG why are people so blind and autistic about this. I thought I was helping, both the author and other people who came along. Just sounded entitled. Will try not to make that mistake again. Too many people here unable to take things in a non-autistic way. Ah sorry. You see yet again I have a lot to learn about supposed HN cultural norms. (Sorry, am fed up with people picking on me about this.) edit: Ahhh hehe I just noticed the title is now "Julia v0.7.0 Release Notes"! When I commented yesterday it was "Julia Lang v0.7" I think. So I've been wondering why on earth the comments about 'Release Notes', and the late commenters must have been wondering why the earlier talk about 'Lang'. So.. there was confusion. That makes more sense of why people were getting weirder and weirder about this—false assumptions. I learnt something, hopefully the people lecturing me about not understanding how HN works learnt something too. Apologies not expected, but that would be lovely. p.s. Yes, the new title is much much better! |

The change means that the person who submitted the post was in error. HN guidelines call for using the original title, with a few exceptions.
The page's title when the posting was made was "Julia v0.7.0 Release Notes", which you can confirm from this snapshot of 4 days ago: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/eb94b8c3d8e8ee2294ed... .
This suggests that you did not even click on the link to learn more about the project before complaining about the lack of context.
The practice I try to do in situations like this is not to complain about the problem, but to figure out the solution to my complaint, and post that. For example, you could have written: "The submitter used the wrong title. It should be 'Julia v0.7.0 Release Notes'. Julia is a programming language for technical computing.

That would be helping. Complaining about such a basic topic is not helping.
