Bill Burr destroyed Steve Jobs

> shameless crook Over a decade after his death, there is plenty of observable, egregious shamelessness and brigandry in the world. Jobs was a successful player in a big, bruising corporate world. Jobs was ruthless in business and cruel in some personal relationships. But he had skills and talent too. Apple wouldn't exist today without his leadership through a critical juncture. He was also a driving force for usability in products. Notice how no one seems to promote usability anymore. (We do however pay lip-service to sustainability .) I never liked the cult of idolatry that developed around the person. Comedian Bill Burr offers the best excoriation of that phenemonon. [0] "New phone can't fit the old charger? This is your hero?!"

Bill Burr has a pretty unique take on Jobs, reducing him to "he told other people what to invent": ▶ this video

Good. Reminds me of the Bill Burr bit about Steve Jobs: «New phone can't fit the old charger. This is your hero?» Link: ▶ this video

When I think about the cult of Steve Jobs, I then immediately think of this skit by Bill Burr - ▶ this video I recommend you have a look in case you haven't.

Probably everyone's seen this, but if you haven't..I thought it was very funny. Didn't know much about Jobs until recently, but watched Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine and Pirates of Silicon Valley and some other stuff shortly before seeing this – and thought "Ohh - he was Joe McMillan in Halt and Catch Fire , only Joe evolved into a decent guy" – and it seems pretty factually accurate at least : Bill Burr on Steve Jobs (5 mins) ▶ this video p.s. My answer is No, I didn't know the guy. Strange question. List of dead people I miss: my mother.

If you haven't seen it yet, try Bill Burr's : Nerd Jesus Died [1]. You should enjoy it, I do. ▶ this video
