I like the idea of Gatekeeper in Mac OS X, but not excited that the removal of one radio button would mean I'd have to jailbreak my Mac. ›

It’s been a long time coming, but worth the wait: John Gruber’s take on Walter Issacson’s tragically awful biography of Steve Jobs.
It’s not just that Isaacson was wrong about something; it’s that he was wrong about the most important thing in Jobs’s career.
Maybe we can now stop talking about what a bad biography it is. If this book is all you know about Mr. Jobs, you didn’t know Steve at all.
Isaacson’s book may well be the defining resource for Jobs’s personal life — his childhood, his youth, his eccentricities, cruelty, temper, and emotional outbursts. But as regards Jobs’s work, Isaacson leaves the reader profoundly and tragically misinformed.
Dusty in here or something.
Good example of the sort of thing ifttt.com is great for.
