Rockets are bad technology. iPhones are good technology
change thinking long
It's just not right that so many things don't work when they should. I don't think that will change for a long time.
dog nice smart
Will we be the gods? Will we be the family pets? Or will we be ants that get stepped on? I don't know about that ... But when I got that thinking in my head about if I'm going to be treated in the future as a pet to these smart machines ... well I'm going to treat my own pet dog really nice.
funny humor successful
I think that the anti-Microsoft sentiment is simply due to their having been so successful selling a lot of crap.
jobs block technology
Steve Jobs made the case to Xerox PARC execs directly that they had great technology but that Apple knew how to make it affordable enough to change the world. This was very open. In the end, Xerox got a large block of Apple stock for sharing the technology. That's not stealing outright.
investment wanted company
Neither one of us could be sure we'd get our money back on this investment, but we just wanted to have company of our own for once because we were best friends.
design
Somebody who's designing something for himself has at least got a market of one that he's very close to.
running thinking people
Like people including Stephen Hawking and Elon Musk have predicted, I agree that the future is scary and very bad for people. If we build these devices to take care of everything for us, eventually they'll think faster than us and they'll get rid of the slow humans to run companies more efficiently,
technology disappointed hard
Hard disks have disappointed me more than most technologies.

He [Steve Jobs] had come from the surplus electronics parts world.So he came from that world, and he said let's sell PC boards for $40. We'll build them for $20 and sell them for $40.
jobs ideas no-friends
What Steve Jobs and I did-and at the same time Bill Gates and Paul Allen did-we had no savings accounts, no friends that could loan us money. But we had ideas, and I wanted all my life to be a part of a revolution.
genius mathematics economy
In some parts of life, like mathematics and science, yeah, I was a genius. I would top all the top scores you could ever measure it by.
jobs way
The way I did it, every job was A+.
jobs simple ideas
I started passing out the schematics and the code listings for the computer, telling everyone here it is. It's small, it's simple, it's inexpensive: Build your own. No idea to start a company. Steve Jobs came by later and say, you know, people are interested. Why don't we start a company?
