All I know is that a crowded elevator is going to be strange experience for many now for a long time, especially those who work in tall buildings. A small cough in an elevator is the new fart.

Twitter has the reach though, especially if they launch it similarly to Instagram and just embed it into their existing app vs a standalone product.

ok - so now that they are in a better cash position (or at least in an environment flush with cash that tolerates money losing operations) what's $10M/month in losses?

my theory is that their current head of product, who was the founder of Periscope which Twitter bought pre-launch, made the argument for Live Video (his app) over Vine at that time when Live streaming eg Meerkat/Periscope looked to be

I don’t know why you think it’s less conspiratorial to believe this was just a regular joe vs a professional hit man. He had an electric saw and empty suitcase. left no blood and few clues. didn’t take anything from the apartment either. a

How could it not be professional? What would it be otherwise? The other clue is from the articles I've read is that there was no blood. No average person with a bone saw is going to be able to pull that off. Sorry.

He was facing an Uber-like regulatory situation in Lagos where his startup was facing a ban. If this was related to his startup (and not some other personal dealing) then a clear motive would be for a legacy carrier being disrupted to want

It was a professional hit job given the description here...the killer was wearing gloves, a mask, had an empty suitcase and rode the elevator with the victim to his apartment. The hitman was likely doing a deed for someone who paid for his

if you read the article it says he was in the elevator with his killer, who had gloves, a mask, a suitcase. this was clearly a professional hit job...

It’s entirely subjective. If you search for “has died” posts you will find plenty of posts of other public figures who are more similar to Kobe (not technologists) than Florian. Anyway it’s not worth spending more time thinking about I just

There isn’t a official HN guideline that clearly delineates between the two scenarios and says why one is allowed and the other isn’t. My point is that it’s entirely subjective, but everyone flagging the Kobe story in January was yelling ab

People justified flagging and downvoting the story at the time because there’s some guidelines around “no current event stories that you could read about anywhere” It wasn’t just downvoting it was flagging it for removal. All of them.
