> After launch, MobileMe was widely panned, full of embarrassing bugs. Jobs gathered employees in an Apple auditorium and asked them, “Can anyone tell me what MobileMe is supposed to do?” And when his team started to answer, Job snapped, saying, “Why the F doesn’t it do that?” He spent the next hour berating the group, saying they had tarnished Apple’s reputation and that they should all hate each other for having let each other down. He then fired the head of the team and replaced him on the spot. Steve wasn’t happy at all. He clearly felt very deep shame and took it out on his team”

Can you imagine “Apple Intelligence” being this bad under Jobs?
Contrast that with Cook…
“where can we put more ad units that make the product worse”
“Let’s ignore Phil Schiller’s advice, the judge’s court order and make the experience of paying outside of the App Store as shitty as possible”.
“Let’s keep our base model Macs at 8GB for over a decade to save a little money and get people to pay for upgrades”
I really hate Tim Cook.
