It's getting weirder. They've just responded to everyone who mentioned this debacle on twitter, saying that it's all resolved and all the posters on HN are spammers, banned users, and competitors.
I'm none of the above.
Go on guys, dig yourselves a deeper hole, you'll hit bedrock soon.
- DanBC 11y agoThe twitter account needs to STOP POSTING. https://twitter.com/livecodingtv https://twitter.com/livecodingtv It's honestly baffling how they think that keeping on posting is in anyway a good idea, especially when they say things like "most people are banned users or competitors" - demonstrably untrue - most people are not users of livestreaming, and are not competitors, and a couple of people they've "identified" (doxxed, really) have been incorrectly identified.
- madaxe_again 11y agoWatching their exchanges - they (Michael, clearly) are acutely insane. I feel for the guy, as his world-view is so incredibly warped he seems to be unable to even conceive of the fact that he might be mishandling this grievously. If I were him, I'd step away from the keyboard, and hire a PR firm NOW to try to sort out this mess. If I were PG, I'd be kicking his ass from here 'til next Tuesday for being mindblowingly irresponsible with both the investment given and his employees' livelihoods, and I'd be pushing for a strong customer-facing hire.
