Steve Jobs Talks about Creativity

“Creativity is just connecting things,” Jobs told Wired magazine. “When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people. . . . Unfortunately, that’s too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.”

Interview at the All Things Digital D5 Conference, Steve and Bill Gates spoke with journalists Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg onstage in May 2007.

Kara Swisher: The first question I was interested in asking is what you think each has contributed to the computer and technology industry— starting with you, Steve, for Bill, and vice versa. Steve Jobs: Well, Bill built the first software company in the industry. And I think he built the first software company before anybody really in our industry knew what a software company was, except for these guys. And that was huge. That was really huge. And the business model that they ended up pursuing turned out to be the one that worked really well for the industry. I think the biggest thing was, Bill was really focused on software before almost anybody else had a clue that it was really the software that— KS: Was important? SJ: That’s what I see. I mean, a lot of other things you could say, but that’s the high-order bit. And I think building a company’s really hard, and it requires your greatest persuasive abilities to hire the best ...

Foobar2000 组件安装教程

原作者博客地址汉化作者 Asion博客关于foobar 2000的一些资源前言 foobar2000 由于其软件架构特点以及开放的姿态，使得第三方很容易开发组件（component）来拓展它的功能。由于在官网下载的默认安装文件只带了少量几个默认的组件，满足不了使用的需求，例如：默认不带 ape，tta，tak 等音频文件格式的解码器，很多无损压缩格式音乐没法播放。所以自己下载安装组件是必备的基本技能。 foobar2000 的中文汉化版（Asion 汉化）为了方便使用，集成了无损压缩文件解码器以及一些其它有用的插件，安装时选上即可，不喜欢折腾的建议使用汉化版。这里组件指的是 foobar2000 标准组件（*.dll 文件），而非 vst 插件等其它插件，姑且把组件分为两类：官方组件：英文版安装包自带，安装时可选择；第三方组件：非官方自带的组件除了 foo_input_std.dll 和 foo_ui_std.dll 这两个组件是必须的外，其它的所有组件都非必需的，可以随需要增删。第三方组件可以去官网、官方论坛或者官方 wiki 去找，也可以去贴吧等地逛逛。下载还是要强调一下，这里说的是 foobar2000 component ，不是中文网上通常说的 vst 插件。下载好的组件包一般是 xxx.zip 或 xxx.fb2k-component 格式的文件，也有用 7z 打包的。前两种都是 zip 压缩（只要把 fb2k-component 改成 zip 文件就变成了 zip：包）。标准状况下压缩包里的内容结构应该是 xxx.zip yyy.dll README.txt (可能没有) LICENCE.txt (可能没有) (其它杂七杂八）除少数外一般只有一个 xxx.dll 文件.一定要注意压缩包结构不能是: xxx.zip yy folder (文件夹） zzz.dll … 否则要解压缩，提取那个 dll 文件。安装方法一（推荐）打开 foobar2000 的菜单文件 > 首选项(file >preferences) 的组件(components...

Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone on January 9, 2007.

This is a day I’ve been looking forward to for two and a half years. Link Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything. And Apple has been— well, first of all, one’s very fortunate if you get to work on just one of these in your career. Apple’s been very fortunate. It’s been able to introduce a few of these into the world. In 1984, we introduced the Macintosh. It didn’t just change Apple, it changed the whole computer industry. In 2001, we introduced the first iPod, and it didn’t just change the way we all listen to music, it changed the entire music industry. Well, today, we’re introducing three revolutionary products of this class. The first one is a widescreen iPod with touch controls. The second is a revolutionary mobile phone. And the third is a breakthrough internet communications device. So, three things: a widescreen iPod with touch controls; a revolutionary mobile phone; and a breakthrough internet communicat...

《沸腾新十年》2007-2012

2007-2009 大幕拉启早期玩iPhone的人觉得：它不支持复制粘贴、拍摄视频，也不能更改铃声、壁纸，还不能换电池、插存储卡，手机里的照片和备忘录等也没法复制到电脑中。（但它有Killing Feature是沉浸式的屏幕、上网功能）在网龙的路演过程中，网龙创始人刘德建发现，在当时极为“高大上”的投资人群中，用iPhone已经蔚然成风 ──论有钱人带领的风潮苹果早期是不支持第三方输入法的，这一问题要等到2014年iOS 8的推出才正式解决。 ──居然也封闭了整整七年对于航班管家来说，好用户就是高频乘坐飞机出行的群体。以前，这个群体在哪里、如何捕捉，都是问题。但是iPhone的出现，天然筛选出了那些消费能力强劲的群体。苹果公司和联通也在为没有好应用来推广iPhone而发愁，所以它们精选了6款应用。王江的航班管家和搜吃搜玩都得以入选，吃到了iPhone大推广时代的官方预装红利。王江认为：“其实有了智能手机，才能说有了场景。你不拿着手机亲临其境，怎么叫场景呢？触宝输入法，深合安卓早期创业的三大奥义：“高频、刚需、工具化”。参赛是一个名利双收的大好机会，能帮助免费推广产品魅族黄章对之前毫无保留地和雷军交流有些后悔：“我连M9的UI交互文档都发给过他，请他一起探讨。” 安卓早期的最大刚需之一是系统优化。 CyanogenMod因此成为当时全球最大的ROM开发和优化团队。中国早期安卓生态的很大一部分是建立在CM的基础上的。最着名的有小米的MIUI团队、创新工场的点心团队、占据国内千元机市场的乐蛙OS团队等。当时的盛大创新院群星璀璨，除了潘爱民和许式伟，还有樊一鹏“樊大师”，也有郝培强和霍炬，有极客余晟，有陆坚博士，有黄伟和吴义坚，有庄表伟，还有白宁等诸多牛人。 2012年夏天，华为的任正非在一个讲话中提到两个“备胎”计划，一个是关于芯片的，另一个就是关于操作系统的。 ──布局早在10年前 2009年，张一鸣决意离开饭否，转而去房产网站九九房，这是26岁的张一鸣从南开大学毕业后的4年里准备开启的第4段工作经历，每份工作平均也就一年多一点的时间。此时的张一鸣与大部分同龄人相比略显著急，稍显无措，全然没有日后那种长期思考的定力和耐性。 2009年12月底，王兴确定做美团。 ──原来也已经10年+ 2009年的“双11”购物节只是给淘宝商城团队找点事情的自我安慰...

巴菲特致股东信-1972年

笔记：经营保险的思路是重视长期，不低价特别是不合理地低价抢保单获得一笔长达20年的贷款，利率仅8% 原文： Link： https://xueqiu.com/6217262310/131103213 备份：https://archive.ph/fjGyy the Stockholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.: Operating earnings of Berkshire Hathaway during 1972 amounted to a highly satisfactory 19.8% of beginning shareholders’ equity. Significant improvement was recorded in all of our major lines of business, but the most dramatic gains were in insurance underwriting profit. Due to an unusual convergence of favorable factors—diminishing auto accident frequency, moderating accident severity, and an absence of major catastrophes—underwriting profit margins achieved a level far above averages of the past or expectations of the future. While we anticipate a modest decrease in operating earnings during 1973, it seems clear that our diversification moves of recent years have established a significantly higher base of normal earning power. Yourpresent management assumed po...

巴菲特致股东信-1974年

笔记：价格战企业的逻辑：需要降价获取销量--->需要降低成本--->怎么降？扩大规模以摊低成本--->提高固定资产投入--->净资产回报率会降低翻译：雪球：https://xueqiu.com/6217262310/131257947 备份：https://archive.ph/5CEP6 原文： To the Stockholders of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.: Operating results for 1974 overall were unsatisfactory due to the poor performance of our insurance business. In last year's annual report some decline in profitability was predicted but the extent of this decline, which accelerated during the year, was a surprise. Operating earnings for 1974 were $8,383,576, or $8.56 per share, for a return on beginning shareholders' equity of 10.3%. This is the lowest return on equity realized since 1970. Our textile division and our bank both performed very well, turning in improved results against the already good figures of 1973. However, insurance underwriting, which has been mentioned in the last several annual reports as running at levels of unsustainable profitability, turned dramatically worse...
