They waited until the memorial service (yesterday).
Ok having the whole HN front-page covered with stories about Jobs' death on the day wasn't something I would have done, he's massively overrated in my opinion, but I can understand it. For many people on HN he's a huge influence, inspiration and they use his products so fair enough. Many of the evaluations of his life and career were also relevant, as well as ruminations on the future of Apple. Most of these things I don't mind even if I think most of the premises about Apple are wrong. But this post is just pure cult, it's a link to the Apple front page because the page no longer has a tribute to Jobs. But given he's dead and the funeral has been held, wouldn't the news rather be if they left it up for too long? So this is entirely non-news of a non-event from RVijay007. HN quality is in decline I think, and I have become uncomfortable after someone made a plausible accusation of moderator censorship.
If you look closely, Steve's still there at the bottom of the page.
