Behind the bastards podcast did a four-part series on just how big of a piece of shit Steve Jobs was. We all knew that, but what I didn’t know especially was just how fucking stupid a lot of his business decisions were, coming from his enormous hubris.
Comment on Thomas Edison was the Elon musk of his era

Jobs was the same ilk, he just had better optics at that time. If he lived today, he’d sell out to whatever party they let him to outsource the manufacturing (and coding) to the cheapest possible country. Maybe he’d even double down on the whole AI thing.
