Am I crazy or is Microsoft announcing new open source or dev friendly stuff everytime there's a PR bomb here on HN?

A day later they announce Power Shell is open source.

I remember a few months ago they blasted HN's frontpage with news after a few discussions about telemetry and EEE (first wave of Windows 10/UWP showing its true colors).

I don't care enough to do a reddit-esque investigation on HN stories. I just find it funny, that's all.
