Perhaps, just perhaps, there can be two smart people. Maybe not everything needs to be seen through the dimwitted lens of professional sports, where there is always a winner and a loser.

Dennis Ritchie was clearly a genius, though one who preferred corporate/academic structure to entrepreneurship. Steve Jobs was a genius also.

Though they both worked in technology and were very lucky to reach maturity in a time of technological disruption, they cannot be compared directly. They focused on very different goals.
