"But Kermit would leave the cast of Sesame Street shortly afterwards and enter what are now known as The Tortured Years.

While he did star in a number of high profile movies in the late 1970s and 1980s, behind the scenes he was suffering according to his closest friends."

A lot less punishing, a lot more pitying.

The Roku box was one of the good ones… about ten years ago. Though maybe this is just a TV thing. TIL Roku makes actual screens.

In the past few years especially, I’ve seen so many unshakable “good ones” go bad. Some, in the worst possible way.

My personal favorite is the Christmas decoration wars.

Calling the stage units prototypes is being nice. The reality was that at that point the iPhone had barely gotten to a proof of concept stage. Months before this event, the developers were still using a giant desktop tower to simulate the phone’s hardware.

That the photos of the phone were real and not concept art, that the stage units weren’t just unusable rubber dummies was a magic trick itself.

When the developers revealed years later that the iPhone presentation (just the presentation, not even the actual launch) was a make or break moment for the company, they absolutely were not kidding.

And then they went from “should not even be working” test units to fully functional production units in six months!

Whatever your opinion of Jobs or Apple, credit where credit is due.
