Washington Post: Steve Jobs and the idea of letting go.
How many times have some of us here lamented this or that technological loss? A scrapped feature we relied upon. An abandoned idea we thought was great.
We don't like some decisions Apple makes and can never love them all. It's impossible, unrealistic and childish. And pointless.
The memorial linked to above makes a strong case for the bigger process behind all of that, whereby an atmosphere was dreamed, demanded and created with a relentless message of moving forward often without regard to the past's advantages. It's not a concept many will ever accept.
"Skating to where the puck is going to be."
