  • Jobs was an asshole to his colleagues and he made grave mistakes about how to treat his own cancer which led to his death.

    But with that being said, he helped make Apple, left Apple to make NeXTSTEP, then when Apple was in the dumps they re-hired him, at which point he turned the ship around and put Apple onto the path to becoming the hegemon it is today. Apple’s well-being appears to have had a clear response to Jobs’s presence. So while he may have been an asshole, but he was at least a functional asshole who got stuff done professionally.

    That’s pretty much the exact opposite of what Elon is doing with Twitter.
