Attorney, journalist, and Elon Musk biographer Seth Abramson eviscerated both Elon Musk and his āfanboysā who have attempted to use the billionaireās IQ as an indication of his intellectual prowess in a series of messages shared on X Thursday evening and into Friday.
Time has been kind to Mr. Jobs. Read about his early years at Appleā¦ he was famous for skewering anyone that disagreed with him. He also had lovely habits like parking his sports car in handicapped spots so he didnāt have to walk as far. You canāt disagree with his talent for running a company that did an awful lot of innovation, but he wasnāt a nice guy. He named one of his first products, the Lisa after his daughter, but didnāt treat the actual daughter that well.
He also told the daughter it wasnāt named after her for most of her life.
I may be misremembering but I think she wasnāt a child anymore by the time he acknowledged that he was her dad.
For a āsmartā person, his death was quite possibly a very unintelligent way to go. He basically decided to give all kinds of āholisticā crap a chance to treat his cancer and avoided medical intervention for almost a year. If he had gone with the medical path from the onset, he might still be alive today.
But he did have his moments. Like how he basically told the music industry to cut out the DRM, because it just made the ecosystem impossible. Or one time when someone was picking at him over abandoning OpenDoc in favor of Java (Java didnāt work out either, but his response was on point, without being dismissive of the person).
Cancer sucks. Itās hard to judge someone from dying when everyone dies. I do agree with you that treatment would be better. However finding out you are going to die has a grieving process. He took too long. But I kind of get it.
