Moonshot’s Kimi timing gets mocked for being geared to U.S. hours

- The post jokes that if the product is called “Moonshot,” it should not be surprising that there is “no moon visible at noon.”
- The reply argues that Kimi’s timeline being implicitly tied to U.S. hours looks awkward, since 22.5 hours later it will already be 11 PM in China.
- It is mostly a timing-and-positioning joke, but it still points to how the rollout cadence is being perceived around Moonshot/Kimi.
