Oct 4: Apple launches Siri

Oct 5: Steve Jobs dies

  One kind of side note. On October 5th, Steve Jobs died.
  He had been involved in a lot of the process leading up to it.
  We know that he was watching this launch from his house.
  I don't know what he thought about it, but I like to project
  that he saw it, said "It is good. This is the future, Apple's
  in the middle of it. I can go now." I don't know if that's true,
  but that's a projection that I like to put onto it.
I suppose this is the kind of statement you could expect from the creator of a predictive personal assistant, but wow.

I too found this extremely gratuitous.
