Perhaps being a billionaire changes your view on perfection but I'm not sure I buy the narrative about him being a perfectionist given how decidedly mediocre a lot of what he's touched is.
- paradox242 2y agoAping Steve Jobs without anywhere near the same sense of style. A perfectionist of crafting the mediocre experience. Also the line about caring that they were "humans" and not "users" is particularly rich. I am not doubting he probably said something like this, but I doubt his sincerity knowing everything we do about the man now.
- hnbad 2y agoTurns out becoming a billionaire is not about being a super genius at everything for all eternity. Actually it's more like ten percent luck, twenty percent skill, fifteen percent concentrated power of will, five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain. Wait, what were we talking about?
- stackghost 2y agoI think it's way less than 20% skill, and way more than 10% luck.
- hnbad 2y agoOh, absolutely. I just got caught up by the lyrics to Fort Minor - Remember the Name.
