Developer Peter Hajas has done amazing notification tweak for iOS devices MobileNotifier available in Cydia . The new tweak has soon evolved into a viable notification alternative.

Recently, out of nowhere, Peter blogged about his departure from MobileNotifier, He said he was taking a break from MobileNotifier effective immediately and couldn’t mention why he was leaving:

I’m taking a break from MobileNotifier and Widge for a while. I have other opportunities and priorities currently. I won’t be able to do much (if any) work on the projects, and I won’t have time to respond to many Tweets or emails. The project is in capable hands, with Kyle Adams, Tim Novinger and others (like Marc Easen) keeping things going. This is definitely not goodbye.

I can’t say why, but it’s worth it. Trust me. If you look around hard enough, you’ll probably figure it out.

I hope you guys understand, and I look forward to bringing you more awesome, great, free open source software in the future. Stay tuned for some amazing things!

If you absolutely must get in touch with me, send me an email.
Until then, stay hungry and stay foolish.

Now, the interesting part of Peter’s post was the cryptic line about why he can’t say why he’s stopping work on MobileNotifier, but if we look around we’ll figure it out. Now, here’s the fun part.

Steve Jobs’ speech at Standford, where he refers to the farewell message in the last edition of Whole Earth Catalogue, that read:

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

By watching the historic video above, around 13:50, this apparently leaves us to think that he was hired by Apple actually.

Later, the guys at RedmondPie was able to dig up an old deleted tweet by Hajas, that stated he was “off to work in CA at a ‘fruit’ company”.

@brittaahh I’m glad you like it! I’ll see what I can do 🙂 I will be back for a few weeks, then I’m off to work in CA at a “fruit” company.

More evidence kept rolling up as finally, Peter’s Facebook had been updated to show his current employment status as an “intern” with Apple Inc. as noticed by CrunchGear

Peter’s hard work does pay off and got him noticed by Apple, well done.
