Tejashwi Yadav roasted for comparing himself to Steve Jobs & Mark Zuckerberg: 'He proved that he is 9th fail'

Tejashwi Yadav, RJD leader, recently attempted to downplay concerns and criticisms over his lack of formal education by citing tech billionaires such as Steve Jobs and Meta (formerly called Facebook) owner Mark Zuckerberg, both of whom famously dropped out of college. After facing long-term allegations about his education, the 35-year-old politician finally responded to the criticisms in a recent interview with The Print. In the video, the leader says, 'Gyaan aur shiksha alga cheez hai' (knowledge and education are two different things). He goes on to say that both Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg didn't have a degree, which is what many saw as a defensive justification for his own academic shortcomings. However, the comparison hasn't gone over well online, and the critics were quick to point out that Steve Jobs built Apple and Zuckerberg created Facebook, while Tejashwi has built nothing of his own, aside from inheriting what some call his father Lalu Prasad Yadav's "corruption empire." Tejashwi Yadav says 'Jobs & Zuckerberg didn't have degrees' to justify his own zero education. 😂~ One built Apple. Other built guy? Built nothing. Just inherited Lalu's CORRUPTION empire. Have some shame😹 Netizens slam and troll his statements, which affect his education Amid this, an X (formerly called Twitter) post has gone viral that points out Tejaswi's statements, saying that he himself hasn't built anything aside from just inheriting his father's corrupted empire. "Have some shame," one netizen wrote, echoing widespread sentiment on social media. Another wrote, "9th fail comparing himself to tech legends? Full Comedy. But where is the shame 😭" 9th fail comparing himself to tech legends? Full Comedy But where is the shame 😭 "Bro literally think Harvard drop out and 9th fail is same 🤡🤡🤡. Bihar have no chance in next 50 years also," one said. Bro literally think Harvard drop out and 9th fail is same 🤡🤡🤡.

A new camera placement on the M5 iPad Pro could make Face ID more reliable in any position

Referential image of the M4 iPad Pro. | Image credit — PhoneArena Apple's next iPad Pro may solve one of the more divisive changes introduced with last year's model. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the upcoming M5 iPad Pro is expected to feature two front-facing cameras — one positioned on the landscape edge, and another on the portrait side of the adjustment could be Apple's way of accommodating how differently people use their iPads. In 2024, the M4 iPad Pro introduced the first landscape camera placement, a shift from the portrait orientation used in all previous models. While this change made sense for users who keep their tablets in landscape mode — particularly when using a keyboard or making video calls — it created new issues for those who typically hold the iPad upright in new dual-camera setup would give users the best of both worlds. Regardless of orientation, there would be a front-facing camera that feels natural for FaceTime, selfies, or facial recognition with Face ID. This also aligns with Apple's broader push to make the iPad more versatile for work and personal use.

Gurman points out that Apple originally planned to include dock connectors on both the portrait and landscape edges of the very first iPad back in 2010. That feature was canceled before launch, reportedly by Steve Jobs himself. While this new camera setup isn't quite the same, it reflects a similar goal: to support flexibility in how the device is held and of the camera change, the M5 iPad Pro is expected to carry a new Apple Silicon chip — likely the M5 — and continue Apple's recent design direction with thinner hardware and tighter accessory integration. But for many users, the ability to reliably use Face ID or join a video call without adjusting the device's position may be one of the most noticeable also worth noting that the dual cameras are likely to be unobtrusive. Gurman expects them to be embedded within the bezels, which would maintain the clean design Apple has prioritized in recent iPad update may not be a huge attention-grabbing overhaul, but it shows that Apple is paying close attention to how users are interacting with its most powerful tablet. And in some cases, the most meaningful upgrades come down to simply making everyday tasks more convenient — no matter how you hold your iPad.

Is being a ‘996' workaholic essential for start-up success?

C an you build a successful business without giving up your life? The trope of the tireless entrepreneur is deeply embedded in our culture. We've all heard the stories: Steve Jobs sleeping under his desk at Apple, Elon Musk working 120-hour weeks — founders sacrificing everything to turn a pipe dream into a multibillion-dollar empire. These stories feed a seemingly incontrovertible belief: that to build something truly successful, you must go 'all in' — pulling all-nighters in the office, cancelling family holidays, ditching weekend plans and putting relationships on indefinite hold. But is that really the only path? Or is it possible to build a thriving business without sacrificing everything else? It's a question that divides opinion and sparks fierce debate on social media. In one corner are the '996' believers — advocates of a 9am to 9pm, six-days-a-week grind — who argue that success is impossible without extreme commitment. In the other are work-life balance advocates, who say the best businesses are built not just through relentless hustle but by living smarter, more sustainable lives, with time to rest and recharge.

Is it time for a new kind of CEO at Apple?

Apple 's continuing artificial intelligence (AI) problems mean a few brave analysts are saying the quiet part out loud: it might be time for Tim Cook to go. 'Apple now needs a product-focused CEO, not one centred on logistics,' New York-based LightShed Partners said in a recent note. The note made waves, but Cook's position is thought to be secure. Apple's board is loyal and while shares have lagged behind over the past year few investors are reaching for the panic button. Under Cook, Apple's market value has ballooned from $340 billion (€293 billion) to $3.1 trillion, a return that tends to silence complaints. Still, that Cook's position is even being discussed says something. READ MORE No one disputes Cook's achievements – even LightShed admits he has done 'a great job' since 2011 – but some wonder if the traits that suited Apple's past may not fit its future. A master of optimisation, Cook perfects rather than pioneers. That made him the ideal steward of Apple's golden decade. Under his tenure, margins stayed fat, supply chains got leaner and stock buy-backs flowed. He kept the iPhone at the heart of a sleek ecosystem and steered Apple through Covid and geopolitical headwinds. However, much of this success came from refining and scaling ideas inherited from the Steve Jobs era. Whether he's the one to lead Apple's next act is less clear, with some suggesting AI demands a different skill set, one rooted in bold product vision rather than operational mastery. For now, Cook remains firmly in charge, but the AI era is forcing even Apple to confront uncomfortable questions about what comes next.

Would Steve Jobs Have Hired You? Apple Founder Had This 'Glass Of Water' Test To Filter Talent

Last Updated: Steve Jobs' water glass test, used during interviews at Apple, assessed creativity, calmness, and initiative with a simple task—fetching a glass of water Apple's co-founder, Steve Jobs, was known not just for revolutionising technology, but also for pioneering unorthodox methods of identifying top talent. One such method—the 'Water Glass Test'—continues to spark debate in HR and corporate circles even today. What Is the Water Glass Test? According to reports and biographies, Steve Jobs would occasionally ask a job applicant to do something surprisingly simple: bring him a glass of water. While it seemed a basic request, it was far from meaningless. This informal yet insightful test was designed to assess a candidate's initiative, problem-solving, creativity, and ability to stay composed under pressure. What Did Steve Jobs Look For? Why Did This Matter? Steve Jobs believed in hiring people who embodied the mindset of 'Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish", those who dared to think differently. A small task like this could reveal a lot about a person's mindset, beyond what a CV or formal interview could convey. Is The Water Glass Test Still Used Today? Many companies today are turning to practical and situational hiring exercises, ditching traditional interviews in favour of informal assessments that reveal real-world thinking. As industries evolve, there's a rising demand for employees with creativity, agility, and the ability to act under uncertainty—qualities the Water Glass Test is designed to expose. Advantages Of The Water Glass Test Drawbacks Of The Water Glass Test Ambiguity: The purpose and evaluation criteria of the test are not clearly defined, potentially confusing the candidate. Lack of Objectivity: The test can be subjective, as its evaluation depends on the interviewer's perspective. Cultural Differences: In some cultures, such an unexpected request may be seen as rude or insulting rather than taken seriously. Limited Scope: The test does not assess technical skills or specific job-related qualifications. view comments First Published: July 08, 2025, 13:07 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
