Steven Jobs: Narcissus from Silicon Valley

Steven Paul Jobs (1955-2011), American entrepreneur and industrial designer, dreamed from childhood of changing the world around us, leaving his unmatched mark. He considered himself an exceptional person. "It's hard to come up with a name for new products right away." Irony has nothing to do with it, by the way. The new product is a person, and the new person, of course, is Jobs himself - one of the founders of the famous "Apple" corporation and the "Pixar" film studio. A genius designer, a convinced vegetarian, an admirer of Eastern teachings, an impetuous workaholic, an egoist - dozens of complexes hindered Jobs throughout his life. "He was too busy to flush the toilet behind him." But now we live in a world filled with technical creations from the most incredible of his fantasies. At the same time, perhaps the main thing that Jobs left in our world is the myth about himself, a myth created by him. A well-known writer Gennady Prashkevich (Novosibirsk, Russia) and a professional mathematician, writer Sergey Solovyov (Toulouse, France), attempted to understand this. What did Steven Jobs live for? How did he live? What led him to his tragic premature death? Yes, he changed our world. But in what direction - for better or for worse? It's time to ponder this as well.
