The numbers 2-4 at Apple come up quite often, but “how annoying it is to work with Tim Cook” isn’t a recurring thread, despite his also being one of the most famous, wealthy, and powerful people on Earth as well.
Joel Spoksky’s meeting with Bill Gates about Excel is famous lore in our circles as well, although I doubt Spolsky was ever even top 10 at Microsoft.
Werner Vogels comes up fairly often, too.
- barfingclouds 2y agoI’ve never heard of those people
- panick21_ 2y agoI don't know who 2-4 at Apple are, and I think most non Apple fans don't know them, and neither to most Apple fans. And there is a big difference between people generally known and being a character in on famous 'lore' story. I challenge you to compare all threads about SpaceX and Amazon and and see who gets more mentions, Shotwell or Vogels. I have never hared about Vogels despite reading many theads on Amazon, that said, I don't read many about AWS details.
