I like your essay, but you're way off-base in your latest analysis of Paul Graham's essay. Your conclusion that 'Paul Graham's wrong on the value of a hacker culture (sadly)' can be contradicted with a single word. Software.
You make a great argument, but Apple is not in the software business.
- glhaynes 16y agoThis distinction between being in the "hardware business" or the "software business" is what much of the rest of the industry follows and, as a result, has allowed Apple many of its inroads in the last decade. People want and buy products, and good high-tech products are a result of good software running on good hardware.
