Theranos Charged for Massive Fraud /  by Muhammad Amir Ayub

Do people remember this company, the one that promised accurate blood tests with only a fraction of the volume requirements (and other claims)?

Modern medical miracles are rarely extravagant.

All right guys, here it is. I ate 10 beef ribs in a Malaysian record time of 7 minutes 59 seconds. Got various footage from my wife, my mom, and the press.

Steve Jobs' Management Genius Doesn't Work Well in His Personal Life /  by Muhammad Amir Ayub

Steve Jobs' eldest daughter on his late father:

“In the book, titled Small Fry, Brennan-Jobs recounts how Jobs was “rarely present” in the early years of her life, as he denied paternity. As she grew older, however, Jobs began to show an interest in her and apologized for his behavior.

The memoir’s description notes that Jobs ushered his daughter into a “new world of mansions, vacations, and private schools.” Brennan-Jobs was “thrilled” to receive attention from her father, but he could be “cold, critical and unpredictable” at times, echoing stories about his management style at Apple.”

Nobody's perfect; everyone's flawed in some way. Balance is not possible. Get over it.
