>him and woz were building computers by hand out of perf board in their garage
yeah, they were forced to build them because byte computers didn't want kits. they wanted working systems. woz and jobs weren't working alone either. during this time woz already had a prototype of apple 2 working, tried to sell it to commodore but jack tramiel apparently wasn't interested after there were some disagreements on who should get the lion's share of the profits. >as teenagers I thought
jobs was 20/21 (i think) and woz 25 or so.
He was able to walk in the shoes of the average joe to know how to simplify technology that even your grandma can use since he wasn't as antisocial, nerdy, greasy, and smelly like fat Woz.
That's a good point. I can't be the only one who feels like if I know something then everyone else does as well so there's no need to simplify stuff. I know it's ridiculous.
that Aston kutcher movie showed it to be when he wasn't working at apple, but I don't think him being the boss with a shitload of cheddar helped things, I bet it did the opposite, homie must have REEKED frfr, I can't even imagine the smell towards the end, unwashed cancer ridden rotted fruit smelling sweat musk enveloping the room when balding turtleneck apple man walked in
>Thought he didn't need to shower because he only ate fruit
This is the same genius that crafted a product that melted itself because he thought air vents looked dumb. And he got a book, a documentary, and people still cream themselves over the crypto-pajeet.
Thank you. His death ruined the industry. E.g. he didn't like bluetooth file transfers because of his tooth aches. Tim "Gay moron" Cook didn't get the memo and still doesn't allow BlueTooth file transfers.
>not cumming during sex
Too real. The amount of times I've heard entrepreneurial types claim they did nofap for extended periods of time for motivation... It does give you a certain stimulation, but eventually the constant arousal ruins it. I'm rambling, but it's been something that's been on my mind for a long time.
programming works in close to natural language metaphor for machine instructions. minds capable of visualizing abstract concepts as useful metaphors write better code
basically rode on the nutsack of woz until woz said frick this shit i'm out and sold most of his shares. even this Black person sold all his apple shares except ONE, only so he could keep getting financial reports on apple.
He came of age in a (better) era where society hadn’t been so completely stratified by higher education that you’re completely discouraged from doing anything you don’t have a loicense (ie degree) in
Writers would mess around with hobbyist computers, medical doctors would know how to fix a car, and so on
>hadn’t been so completely stratified by higher education
things were far worse in the 1970s. did you forget about the vietnam war protest movements and the feminist movements? >Writers would mess around with hobbyist computers
wow. who would have thought that "writers" would be interesting in WORD PROCESSORS? amazing. zoomers ideas of what the 1970s were like are bizarre, delusional and frightening. it's a good thing you useless fricks aren't writing history books.
Yes, anon. People of one discipline were forking into other disciplines because they saw potential cross-application of technologies and skills. Truly a hellscape of a magnitude that defies description. Unlike the utopia we have now, with everyone micro-focused on a particular aspect of a particular field, and refusing to do anything that might violate the orthodox of that technical channel. It's a good thing we have anons like you to put silly anons like

I have zero respect for Jobs and I can honestly say I have not used one of his products. In the UK, Clive Sinclair was the real hero of home computing.
The other thing about Clive was that he wasn't a massive vegetable eating homosexual who died of AIDS.
>In 2010 Sinclair married Angie Bowness, a former dancer at a Stringfellows nightclub and who represented England for Miss Europe 1995. This second marriage lasted for seven years before also ending in divorce.
Based?
This idea that people are defined by their undergraduate major needs to die. If you are still doing what you studied when you were 20 years old when you are 35 you majorly fricked up.
Businessmen rule everything, nerds are just their slaves
But businessmen in the 21st century are nerds as well, at least in the tech space. He’s the exception
did he even graduate college? him and woz were building computers by hand out of perf board in their garage as teenagers I thought
being immersed in tech, and being in the right place at the right time is all it takes, thats every successful tech companies beginnings
tim cook is a businessman, steve jobs is all hardware computer science

How would jobs have benefited from a CS degree? The average CS major can barely form a coherent paragraph, not good for selling iphones!
We've automated writing paragraphs.

now ditto I don't know about woz but jobs was as much a filthy hippy dropout gay as they come
>banished from his own company by employees
How

The thick plottens.

*ruined the industry
no need to thank me
Thank you. His death ruined the industry. E.g. he didn't like bluetooth file transfers because of his tooth aches. Tim "Gay moron" Cook didn't get the memo and still doesn't allow BlueTooth file transfers.

men like steven are basically the modern gengis kane

Are you serious ?
it is how we build and harness our jing energy anon. it is the way.
linguistics has many parallel ideas to tech
Such as?
programming works in close to natural language metaphor for machine instructions. minds capable of visualizing abstract concepts as useful metaphors write better code
The same way a struggling Art Student almost took over the world. By being Charismatic.
And also by being right about almost everything
Clearly not since he's dead after a pathetic loss.
It's widely acknowledged that he was an excellent marketer.

Fix'd
The best people at an industry are the ones who arrived at it by chance and not because it was their dream. Another example is George Lucas.
I have zero respect for Jobs and I can honestly say I have not used one of his products. In the UK, Clive Sinclair was the real hero of home computing.
The other thing about Clive was that he wasn't a massive vegetable eating homosexual who died of AIDS.
The resemblance isn't really that remarkable, and yet I can't unsee it.
>In 2010 Sinclair married Angie Bowness, a former dancer at a Stringfellows nightclub and who represented England for Miss Europe 1995. This second marriage lasted for seven years before also ending in divorce.
Based?
By being a sociopathic narcissist and bullying nerds, like Woz, to his will
His powerful stink
>how did he do it
Conceit and hubris.
>business administration majors are racing an industry of freetards to the bottom
it's not that hard
>Is called "jobs"
>Jobs to a curable tumor
