Lucid's Findings
My name is Gianni Hemp, im a 20 year old guy who has his Associates in CNS Computer Networking Systems. I LOVE tinkering with computer/ smartphone gadgets. This blog is about half naked women (naked women at times), funny shit, tech shit (rarely), lots of good fucking FOOD, and video games. And I hope you enjoy my blog, Welcome.

wired: Let’s talk about Steve Jobs. I know, I know. It’s been a year since his death. What is there possibly left to say about him, and why are so many people still saying it? There will be scores of stories about Steve Jobs published today. That may seem tiresome and overwhelming, if not totally unnecessary. Perhaps you are sick of hearing about him or never really liked Apple products and don’t get what all the fuss is about. Or maybe you just think that for all this genius, he was a horrible human being. Me too. I feel you. But we’re both living in his shadow and will for the rest of our days. So settle in, because all of us are going to be talking about Steve Jobs for decades to come. Jobs has joined the pantheon of greats who advanced science and industry and society itself — a modern-day Tesla but appreciated in his own lifetime. He’s our Thomas Edison or Henry Ford, one of those rarefied individuals who had not only a vision but the will and force of personality to execute it through America’s greatest cultural triumph: the public corporation.
