    I’m pretty sure his wife already did that.

        Nah, he fucked himself with that. Had a highly treatable form of cancer and chose to feed it a sugary fruit-only diet instead of going to a doctor.

  Why, exactly? Genuinely asking. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m no Apple fan, and he was absolutely an insufferable douchebag to nearly everyone he knew; and was a verifiable self-righteous fuckwit who Darwin’d himself out of existence by choosing woo-woo bullshit over medicine for a very treatable cancer.

  Evil, though, I think might be a stretch – Elon, Thiel, Vance, Trump, Murdoch, the Sackler family, the Koch brothers, etc. all excellent contenders for being truly evil – but afaik Jobs was just a dickhead with an ego the size of a blimp, and I think we ought not dilute that term with just your run-of-the-mill dickheads. Unless you know something I don’t about him.

      This told me nothing I didn’t already know. Like I said, he was a dickhead. But “evil” requires a level of maliciousness that transcends the people you are in physical contact with, imo – you have to be actively striving to make life worse for at least a few thousand people.

      A dickhead and a shitty father, sure. But “evil” would require him to have done something much worse than just treat his kid and the people in his immediate orbit like shit. Just my opinion.

        That’s a very strange definition. He also led moving manufacturing to China. You may have heard of the suicide nets they had to put up in their facilities.

        He was the ringleader of an illegal anti-poaching agreement between tech companies that kept worker salaries down.

        He’s the root cause of much of what is broken with modern tech hiring. Bill gates is responsible for the other half (trick questions, etc)

    It shouldn’t surprise you. Being evil is practically a requirement for that level of success as a capitalist.
