Apple dreams of campuses
1983 - 2017
Hey there! Did you know Steve Jobs wanted to build an awesome Apple campus waaaay before Apple Park? Like decades before? In 1983? I wrote about that today in my neurotic episodic memoir over here: scottknaster.substack.com/p/apple-drea...

Me too. I know Iβm enjoying a TV show if Iβm thinking about it and listening to the podcast after (I am), and in the case of a Vince Gilligan show, marveling at how they got the big scenes on film.

50 posts! I'm over here telling stories about my decades working at Apple, Google, et al., and other nerdy adventures on Earth. I think of it as an episodic chaotic memoir. Only a few hundred more posts and then I think I'll be done. scottknaster.substack.com/p/50-posts

We need some stinking (Apple) badges!
1983
I wrote about the time I was in an Apple ad that never ran. Because I don't know anything about tariffs. scottknaster.substack.com/p/we-need-so...
