I'd probably feel differently had I actual worked experience in a Jobs-led firm (Apple or NeXT), but for my money Larry "The Lawnmower" Ellison is still the worst. And don't forget history, William Shockley, e.g.!

Dude spent half of his time dodging paying child support too, there were actually confused and outraged articles at the time of like "Why is the mother of Steve Jobs' child on food stamps?"

My dad was part of Project Chess at IBM and worked with a bunch of founders in Silicon Valley. The only ones he respected were Woz and Bill Gates, he thought the rest were just sales people with personality disorders.

he was definitely the most personally outrageous and like, scummy for lack of a better term, but the modern guys certainly have him lapped for philosophical amorality. he would have loved This Shit, it’s so sad(?) he chose to die of cancer
