Ignoring his daughter for years

Steve Jobs fathered a child when he was just 23. But he spent years denying that he was the father, going so far as to swear in a court document he was, "sterile and infertile, and as a result , did not have the physical capacity to procreatea child."

很多年不承认自己的女儿

乔布斯23岁的时候就当上了父亲。他很多年都否认自己是父亲,甚至在法庭文件中发誓:“自己没有生育能力,所以,从生理上讲不可能有一个孩子。”

Steve Jobs was young at the time and under the impression that he needed adult supervisionto run Apple. With John Sculley he got someone that didn't understand Apple. Eventually Sculley pushed for Jobs' ouster.

当时的乔布斯还很年轻,他需要有经验的管理人员。于是他让一个不懂苹果文化的人去经营苹果,结果还被他赶出了苹果,那人就是John Sculley。

Dumping all of his Apple stock when booted from the company

Steve Jobs' decision to dump all of his Apple stock probably doesn't seem like a good idea when the company dumped him in the mid-eighties.

被踢出苹果的时候,抛售了自己所有的股票

乔布斯在80年代中期被踢出苹果时,决定抛售自己的所有股票,这在今天看来不是个好主意。

Trusting Eric Schmidt for as long as he did

Google now competes with Apple in just about every major business line for Apple. Both make software for tablets, smartphones, and desktop computers. Apple foolishly gave Google a front row seat on how it operates those businesses by allowing Eric Schmidt to sit on the board for three years.

过分信任Eric Schmidt

谷歌现在所有产品线都在与苹果竞争,包括平板电脑、智能手机和台式电脑等。苹果让Eric Schmidt进入董事会,这使谷歌知道了如何经营那些生意。

Emailing an iPhone4 customer to say, "Just avoid holding it in that way."

"Just avoid holding it in that way," when a customer emailed to say the signal dropped when the phone was held tightly with the bottom left covered.

给一个iPhone4 使用者发邮件说:“不要那样握着。”

“不要那样握着。”——当一个iPhone4使用者发邮件说,如果遮住机器左下方并且紧握,就会掉线,乔布斯就这样回复了他。

Having done no philanthropy, neither does Apple

Steve Jobs is worth billions. And yet, he seems to keep it all for himself. He is not attached to any big donations.

他和苹果都没有做任何慈善

乔布斯的身价高达几十亿美元,但是他似乎没有向社会做大的捐献。
