i'll be so fucked when twitter decides they want to start improving tweetdeck

Twitter down?

back now

Thanks - need my hot takes for the day.

I can't change my facial hair into a sandstorm :/

i came to the same conclusion :\

But you can’t steal something that isn’t owned. You have to own something for it to be able to be stolen.

Yeah, that’s a fair point. But I feel like the skinning of a game is really important. Brenda Romero designed a game that was about the Holocaust, right, and the same set of rules could just be Candyland, and that’s the way we think about it too. It’s not supposed to be about people, but about these representations of them as cards and you’re collecting them because you like them, not because you want to own this person.

$twtr has lost 67% of its value in the past 8 months. Their burn rate is reportedly $3M a day with no chance of seeing profit in the near or distant future.

nice

I'll miss it when it's gone, I suppose

maybe not

twitter not gonna die, they cld be profitable tomorrow if they just gave up trying to grow to facebook size

even if they go bankrupt someone will buy the service and keep it going too many user to fail

now on the other hand if they start losing users

why would anybody buy a service that doesn't make money

The idea is there so it'll probably survive in some form.

I'll buy them when it's really really cheap.

cause u cld make money off of it pretty easily it wld just involve laying off 3/4 of the company xp

revenue != profits

I should know better than to try and make sense of the internet economy

twitter had like ~$2b revenue last year

just out of curiosity, what are the 3/4 of the company doing if they aren't adding value to the company?

can we back up to the Stolen debacle, because holy shit

twitter is trying desperately to grow is the thing but its not working so theyre putting a lot of resources toward something thats not paying off

a large part of their valuation is based on the idea that they cld become facebook sized, but if their stock drops low enough that cld justify giving up on the world domination project and instead just trying to maintain twitter and make it good

twitter does about 1.5 billion in revenue im sure a PE company could buy it and gut it if they wanted to

lol xp

sry dan u got out thought leadershiped

twitter also spent 1.5 billion on R&D and sales and marketing last year i mean seems like there's a lot of fat to trim

when you get out thought leadershiped <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

seems inevitable that they will eventually arrive at the smaller twitter model

I seriously need to come up with an insanely stupid idea and then find a white or Asian man to present it to some venture capitalists

im aways open to stupid ideas

can we back up to the Stolen debacle, because holy shit

would it surprise anyone to learn that the writer of that article was harassed overnight for writing it

[seriously nsfw image here: https://twitter.com/holly/status/688034893536858112 ]

the app has been pulled, and now gamergaters/breitbart and the like are attacking the writer as a 'censor' and defending the app. this shit is like clockwork.
