    Just try something, anything, throw yourself into it fully and see where it leads. Keep doing that. Not only will you gain lots of skills and knowledge about yourself you'll be really well prepared with transferable skills when you find what you want to do.

    I love that the video is provided as the un-edited roll. The interviewer talking in the beginning isn't being completely honest though, but he's doing his job in order to keep Steve comfortable and calm. In reality even the explaining he did to Steve in the beginning, is a great kind of B-roll to cut in later, when you - for whatever reason - need a cut-in of the interviewer speaking or asking about something. Oftentimes completely different audio is edited in over the interviewer speaking, though, since you only see him from behind. Edit: Oh lol I notice they do the question over-shoulder thingy at the end too. Must've been quite interesting to see for Steve to see how TV is actually produced from the vantage point of the interviewee.

    Apart from seeing a young Steve Jobs, it was interesting at the end to see all the raw footage and the way the camera angles are staged. He certainly nailed some big issues, like how difficult these computers were to use. But I was struck by how much my life has been affected by his early vision. I learned to program on an Apple II (like the kids from MN that he mentioned) because BASIC was the OS. You were confronted with a command prompt and you had to type BASIC code to have the computer do anything at all. As a kid using a computer lab without access to floppies or a hard drive, I found coding interesting, but most of the kids in my school had little interest or inclination. In contrast, I'm sure all the applications Steve spoke about used pre-written code and data stored on some kind of drive, which would have vastly increased the cost of the computer. Tape was the low-end storage solution, but I don't recall ever seeing a tape drive for the Apple II. I don't recall when Apple introduce graphical user interfaces, but 10 years after this interview when I could afford my first computer, they were still low-powered and hard to use. A 386SX with a 32MB HD was > $1000 and ran DOS and connected to the university modems at 2400 BAUD.

    When you realize you are smarter than your teachers I guess the thought is what is the point. It sounded like he had a vision for the world from this video. He might have just wanted to get on with it and not waste any time. He certainly did achieve what he set out to do. Listening to him here I have become convinced that some people are just born different. He was only 25 and had already accomplished alot and was able to articulate so clearly his vision for the world as it relates to technology.

    Why is that amazing? Schools and universities destroy people's minds.

    pretty astonishing to watch Steve talk about personal computers in 1981 on a 2018 MacBook Pro... on an iPhone, even more insane

    Right at the time of this interview, Jobs is earnestly pushing forward with the Mac and realizes the Apple II will be obsolete. Exactly one week after this interview many people working on the Apple II are fired and a few good people are moved to the Mac team which was already well underway. Steve expects the Mac to be released in one year. It will be 3 years but this is what he's hinting at in this interview.
