History Rhymes 18:30 - The whole idea of the Macintosh was a computer for people who WANT to use a computer rather than learn HOW to use a computer. What Steve meant was the new paradigm is for people who are READY & EAGER to embrace it (and SYNERGIZE IT) 19:24 - The OLDER people all WANT to KNOW HOW it does what it does but the YOUNG people just WANT to KNOW WHAT it CAN do. Huge difference! User interface - it’s a NATURAL thing that happens. (Aka if it isn’t natural to you, you’re doing something wrong) 21:55 - the making of CHOICES and controlling their OWN destiny using these TOOLS 22:15 - the problem: we’re still ISLANDS and we’re still NOT really CONNECTING these people using these POWERFUL TOOLS, into a FABRIC 22:33 the real challenge: achieve the benefit of BOTH passenger train + automobile. SYNERGY + AMPLIFICATION 24:30 Vision: 1. Powerful TOOL in people’s face(s), easily affordable (low barriers to entry) 2. Integration of NETWORKING + interpersonal computing: pcs couldn’t achieve this, but IPHONE later DID just that 3. SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURE from ground up - laying the foundation (ecosystem) for what was waiting ahead 25:50 - PLATFORM software is the bottleneck to what future APPLICATIONS can STEM FROM (rise/springboard from) 30:05 - Seamless transition 31:12 - means rather than an end 34:00 - PARADOX: to make a TOOL easier to use you needed a more powerful TOOL in the first place. I actually think this is a paradox within a paradox! (The USER of this tool defines how easy it is to use it) 37:22 - The people who really did it are the ones who worked through the hard intellectual problems as well 47:52 - Market research can only tell you what your customers KNOW, but not what they don’t KNOW yet. (USER nuance + TIMING matters) 49:00 - How has it changed our daily lives? Steve was VERY disappointed in this question. The right person to ask is YOURSELF. 50:00 - Steve could only answer things the interviewer WANTED to hear 50:31 - Steve really wanted to express: “You could only GET what I’m saying if you knew what I was thinking, but you couldn’t get what I was thinking despite me speaking my heart out for 50 minutes” The difference is understated.

不过也好，股价保住了。

sb interviewer 被老黄多次混淆概念，被带节奏了。

and of course, Jensen and Nvidia are not cars. precisely they are what makes cars possible. they are national treasures. treasures need to be protected.

@hamptonism For example, the risk of something happening is a type of "extreme" - the extent varies. confidence intervals. the whole point of national security is to minimize these risks.

People will dunk on Jensen for this, but this is the exact mindset that it takes to be the best in the world. America will win.

if you know, you know

the ultimate irony is: if you had to learn all this through the market, it actually hasn't been learned.

the (one of many) irony is: if you do somehow manage to acknowledge the path of the market - aka close your puts and plan to buy calls - your inner self increasingly lacks sufficient conviction to do so

the more the market acts differently from your expectations, the more you unconsciously try to rationalize it with actions that attempt to prove yourself correct—it is this action itself that soothes the fragile self.

the problem with absorbing information (aka noise) is letting it affect or cloud your own judgement. Less info can hurt, but more info might not help.

people trying to call a top and short the market are the ones who missed the wicked run up
