I’m about 10 years behind most of the tech industry on reading Walter Isaacson’s biography on Steve Jobs. I never watched the movies the book spawned. And I didn’t pay much attention to Jobs when he was alive. 2022 felt like a good time to dive into it. There’s something about waiting a bit for the paint to dry on something before thinking too hard about it that allows for a cleaner perspective. I’ve read the book now. And with the buzz around Elon Musk purchasing Twitter this week, I think it’s worth sharing some thoughts about Jobs. I bring up Musk because there’s a useful discussion that includes Jobs of the past and Musk of the current.
