<p>Recently I was reading about blind people’s experience of Netflix having been poor (no audio descriptions) for years and years and the media never picking it up despite organized groups begging them to do so…until Daredevil was released and outrageous headlines like “blind people can’t enjoy a show about a blind superhero” became possible.<p>And of course, Netflix released audio descriptions post haste once the headlines hit…turns out it was trivial all along.<p>The moral of the story is, if you want it in the press, make it outrageous first.</p>

<p>Yes, but it’s the same level of garbage as “Facebook was built in a week”, where the hidden part is “after The Harvard Connection spent two years iterating on the product and got everything stolen”.<p>Society and people in general don’t want to hear these “sour grape” gripes. Unless they are the ones affected adversely.</p>

<p>Look their product up, look at their story, and consider this joke:<p>"Do you want to be a millionaire? If so send me $10 and I'll send you the instructions."<p>Let me put it this way: if someone came to you and their story was that they could never figure out how to make money from investing and decided to make money from telling others how to invest instead, what would you think?<p>The glimmer of hope here is that they have customers, who will with any luck guide them to a real value.</p>

<p>Or rather, because Steve took great care not to hire the bozos most companies are staffed with. This is an extremely difficult and underappreciated thing to do, and Steve himself failed spectacularly at it on at least one occasion (which probably made him even more cautious).</p>
