I think that we can all agree that of all the things Steve Jobs was, a nice person was definitely not one of them. And I think it really is a trend among big-league innovative people. So we know as a fact that being "nice" isn't a requirement to be extremely successful, but the question I have is: Is being a "douche" an advantage?
