Jobs got his start in a tiny industry (tech was decently big already, but PCs were not) poised on the edge of massive growth as technology got to the point where you could build machines people would actually buy. And there was a huge moat, as the necessary talent was rare. And even within that rare talent, Jobs had the unique advantage of being able to partner with Woz. Nothing you can do today with a typical HN skill set will come even close to that. There are thousands (at least) of people with those skills. They can build it too, whatever it is. You’re not Woz and you don’t know a Woz. Likely there is no Woz today; everything computing is so much more specialized and complicated and layered and just plain big. You may be able to find success in this world, but it won’t be replicating the Jobs story.
