We've changed the URL from https://www.essential.com/blog/essential-update to an article that says more directly what's happening. The site guidelines call for original sources (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html) but corporate press releases increasingly feel like an exception to this rule. Maybe it's because they're as much a mask for information as a source of it.
If anyone can suggest a better URL, we can change it again. I just picked the first item from some search results.
