Steve Wozniak: The Engineer Who Built Apple [Outliers]

Steve Wozniak is the engineer who built Apple. Then he did something Silicon Valley still doesn't understand: he gave millions of his own money away to early employees, walked away from power, and refused to play the game everyone else was playing. While HP rejected his design and competitors built walled gardens, Wozniak's philosophy of open architecture, the very one a young Steve Jobs fought against, is what saved Apple long enough for it to become Apple. This is the story of the reluctant founder who won by refusing to compromise, and a blueprint for success without selling your soul. ----- Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (01:31) Part 1: Pranks and Paper Computers (18:11) Part 2: The First Personal Computer (30:46) Part 3: Apple Computer Corporation (41:02) Part 4: Apple's Decline (46:02) Epilogue (48:02) Rules To Live By ----- Upgrade: Get hand-edited transcripts and an ad-free experience, and so much more.
