Un étrange communiqué de la part d'Apple : http://www.apple.com/stevejobs/

J'espère que ce n'est qu'un buzz un peu glauque... Pourtant...

Qu'est ce que tu trouves étrange dans ce communiqué ?

Un buzz ? Soyons sérieux quand même !
C'est annoncé en boucle sur les radios et télés depuis ce matin.
Il a survécu 7 ans à un cancer du pancréas où l'espérance de survie est de 3 à 6 mois.
Même dans la maladie il a été assez exceptionnel !
RIP

j'ai eu l'info 15 min apres son deces mercredi (zulu-7) tard dans l'apres midi par notification sur mon Iphone en provenance des grandes chaines de media. Vive la technologie.

C'était attendu, comme le dit Alain les chances sont faibles avec ce type de cancer.

N'empêche 56 ans ... ça fait jeune pour partir, quel qu'en soit la raison 

A+

Oui... Thank you Steve...

Je ne suis pas forcement un grand fan d'apple mais je ne peux nier l'influence qu'à pu avoir ce Monsieur.

Seul regret : ne plus pouvoir lui dire : "thank you Steve"...

Merci pour tout

Steve était un "pionnier" de l'informatique. Sans lui ainsi que beaucoup d'autres génie, nous n'aurions sans doute pas toute cette avancé technologique aujourd'hui.

Toute mes condoléances à sa famille.

Repose en Paix Steve Jobs

+1, Alain, tu fais bien de le relever ...
Pour ceux qui veulent vraiment exprimer quelque chose aux proches de Steve Jobs, ils ont ouvert un site spécial

Sans Paul & Mike, je profite de ce dernier message pour relever un travers qui sévit paticulièrement dans le milieu de l'aviation où les accidents et les morts sont "fréquents": on ne présente des condoléances qu'aux personnes concernées. Comme tu le dis "à sa famille", donc c'est à sa famille que tu envoies ou présente des condoléances, pas à nous sur un forum. Ca perd tout son sens.
C'est un peu comme une "standing ovation" pour benjamin biolay : ça veut rien dire ...

J'allais faire la meme remarque. Mais en faisant un parallèle, à la mort de Mickhael Jackson, on a vu un phenome similaire où des gens disaient dans le genre "tu vas nous manquer MJ" alors que non seulement le defunt avait totalement été oublié pendant plusieurs années avant son deces (donc ignoré du grand public à part ses fans bien sur) mais que ces gens n'ont jamais fais partie de son cercle d'amis intimes.

J'adore les inventions de Steve Jobs et sa maniere de vivre en general. Je suis moi-meme un consommateur heuruex de ses produits. Il a inventé des expressions très inspirant mais sans etre hypocrite je ne vais pas jusqu'à dire qu'il va me manquer puisque je ne le connais que de photo et de video.

Voici ses propres mots (source: http://www.ctv.ca/CTVNews/TopStories/20 … es-111006/)

On life:
"It's more fun to be a pirate than to join the navy." (Steve Jobs, 1985)

"You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

On money:
"Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me…Going to bed at night saying we've done something wonderful…that's what matters to me." (Steve Jobs, 1993)

On work:
"I didn't see it then, but getting fired from Apple was one of the best things that ever happened to me." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

"Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

On design:
"When you're a carpenter making a beautiful chest of drawers, you're not going to use a piece of plywood on the back, even though it faces the wall and nobody will ever see it. You'll know it's there, so you're going to use a beautiful piece of wood on the back. For you to sleep well at night, the aesthetic, the quality, has to be carried all the way through." (Steve Jobs, 1985)

"Design is a funny word. Some people think design means how it looks. But of course, if you dig deeper, it's really how it works. The design of the Mac wasn't what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it's all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it. Most people don't take the time to do that." (Steve Jobs, 1994)

On motivation:
"That's been one of my mantras -- focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it's worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains." (Steve Jobs, 1998)

"When people sell out, even though they get fabulously rich, they're gypping themselves of one of the potentially most rewarding experiences of their unfolding lives. Without it, they may never know their values or how to keep their newfound wealth in perspective." (Steve Jobs, 2000)

"There's nothing that makes my day more than getting an e-mail from some random person in the universe who just bought an iPad over in the UK and tells me the story about how it's the coolest product they've ever brought home in their lives. That's what keeps me going. It's what kept me five years ago, it's what kept me going 10 years ago when the doors were almost closed. And it's what will keep me going five years from now whatever happens." (Steve Jobs, 2010)

On innovation:
"Innovation comes from people meeting up in the hallways or calling each other at 10:30 at night with a new idea, or because they realized something that shoots holes in how we've been thinking about a problem. It's ad hoc meetings of six people called by someone who thinks he has figured out the coolest new thing ever and who wants to know what other people think of his idea.

"And it comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We're always thinking about new markets we could enter, but it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important." (Steve Jobs, 2004)

On death:
"Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

"When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: ‘If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.' It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?' And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything -- all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure -- these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart." (Steve Jobs, 2005)

Bref, paix à son ame
