Why This Interview Matters

This interview was recorded during Jobs' "wilderness years" between Apple stints. It captures him at his most reflective, discussing failure, product philosophy, and what he learned from being fired from Apple.

Key Topics

The importance of saying no to 1,000 things
How great products come from great teams
Why technology should be invisible
The role of liberal arts in technology
What he learned from his failures

My Notes

What strikes me most is Jobs' focus on craft. He talks about products the way an artist talks about painting. There's a deep care for detail and user experience that's rare in tech.
