Microsoft was mentioned in the article as the Fifth Horsemen. Not part of the original because it's more of a B2B company now.

A journalist among journalists.
He was probably Steve Job's most respected tech journalist. That's saying a lot. When the early iPhones launched, only a handful of journalists had a review device; Mossberg was one of them.
As opinionated as Jobs was, Mossberg was one of the few people where he would not criticize nor argue when Mossberg had feedback for Apple products.

Breaking out SF from "Silicon Valley" seems like an outdated approach to segment the data. I would say for the past decade, "Silicon Valley" includes SF, Peninsula through San Jose for all intents and purposes. I see people, who live in SF, commute down to Peninsula and vice versa. The job market in the Bay Area is all pretty fluid.

Andreessen Horowitz has stated they like to develop founders into CEOs, rather than replace them with a professional CEO. If a founder CEO needs development, is no leniency for another exec to develop? What about co-founder non-CEO execs? Does this apply to them as well?

Are there functional benefits of blurriness other than just being aesthetically pleasing or "cutting edge," as the author claims?

I think there's no question that apps have brought a wide range of interaction capabilities that couldn't have existed in a web browser-centric world. However, I believe that Gruber is missing Dixon's point that an app-only world bring forward many disadvantages as well.
I think both agree that without native apps, we wouldn't have many of the functionality that we have today. But, there's still the real risk that any app could be removed or prohibited from the App Store for unclear reasons.
