  The only reason we think so highly of Jobs is he died before social media

    I mean, he died in 2011 and pretty much all of his worst behaviors are well documented and I think he’s well regarded in spite of those things, but importantly also because he seemed to learn and grow through his life. The worst things Jobs seem to be responsible for are barely a Tuesday for Elon these days, and the level of talent are also so disparate that putting them in the same sentence is a little absurd.

    To think he would’ve lived if he didn’t act like a total nutcase and rely on alternative medicine…

      Honestly crazy to me. Access to the best doctors and medicine in the world with no worries about money. Easy curable disease and yet you are so fucking high on yourself and your ways you die from it.

        I guess money won’t fix arrogance mixed with stupidity. Such a shame…

        Isn’t pancreatic cancer one of the lowest survival rate cancers?

  Haha I have no love for Apple but musk would immediately tank it. His first decree on day one as ceo would be that all apps in the apple store would have to make fart noises when you open them

    Honestly they would likely manage the same.

    Both are obsessed about micromanaging every aspect of the device.

    Both work their staff to death and expect the impossible.

    Both create a company that is a brand. That is, there are better products out there, but people will pay a premium just to say they own an Apple device/Tesla.

    It’s actually extremely logical/a great fit.

    If you read their biographies instead of just idol worshipping Jobs I think you’d understand a bit better.

    Seems like people just want to think Jobs wasn’t a piece of shit when he definitely was.
