This article is garbage. The only thing that Steve Jobs did was have ideas and enough narcissism to force them on other people. Engineers and designers far smarter than he did the actual work.

To be fair, he also had an eye for good product design. Not the skills to implement it but the ability to see whether a design is good.

Of course he expressed this skill by yelling at his engineers and designers. A lot. Because he was an asshole.
