# Steve Jobs · the top man of the 2010s

*Decade of 2001–2010 — TOP MAN OF THE WORLD.*

## Why number one
The iPhone (2007) reshaped the human day, hour by hour.

## The margin
By the rule of the board, **Steve Jobs is exactly +50.495495% more right than number ten** — who, this decade, was **Barack Obama**. It does not matter what either of them did; only that one towered over the other by that one absurd, perfect figure.

## The kind of dominance — electrical
This is **electrical** dominance: invention and the machine (`#3fd0e0`).
