One morning this past spring, I was working at my desk when Biz, a fellow tech reporter with a bloodhound's nose for news, texted me a screenshot of my husband's Twitter bio.
Something was missing. Kyle had deleted the name of his startup.
"What happened to Playbyte????" Biz wrote.
Confused, I wrote back, "Wait that's so weird. I'll talk to him."
Kyle and I both work from home, and I wanted to confront him then and there. But talking about my husband's battle-scarred startup always had the potential to turn into a fight. And if his reason for scrubbing Playbyte's name was that he was winding it down, well, that would be an even longer conversation.
