just a question as it’s quoted in this article and elsewhere, but does anyone have a source for the “you’re holding it wrong” quote from steve jobs. Instead following all the leads I can only find the quote “Just avoid holding it in that way.”
I think “you’re holding it wrong” was just a hot take on Jobs suggesting holding the phone differently. I don’t know if there was only one way to hold it to trigger the problem as I could never reproduce the problem. (It seemed to only affect some people.)
Jobs seemed to be feeling a little defensive in that event and probably not really thinking through everything that he said so it came off more harsh that it might otherwise.
The reason I ask is because that phrasing is particularly arrogant and seems to come up a lot when describing his character - while the email that started it all is relatively polite
Didn’t someone just post about this a week ago ( not in relation to a bug bounty submission but pointed it out as an issue )? Was that you? Did you collect the bounty on it?
