No matter how disgusting the notion of patron is to me, I feel Ada
Lovelace would have to be considered too. She's not as freshly dead but
is Den's father too. This is to put an end to the Jobs / Ritchie mise en
abime.

Re: Dennis Ritchie
Reading openbsd source code is like reading eloquent poetry, and in itself is a fitting tribute to Dennis Ritchie. It is hard to imagine that one man developed a software language that is so versatile, and not only is not just a historical milestone, but after it's release by Dennis, and Brian Kernighan in 1978 is still a mainstay after over 30 years. Thankyou Dennis. I love C and you created something I love, and I don't think I'm alone. I think that there are few things in this world that are held in as high esteem as the C language. It is a privilege to be able to write it really, and now the creator of that privilege is on his way to heaven : ) -Original Message- From: Dunceor Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2011 8:56 PM To: dco...@gmail.com Cc: misc@openbsd.org Subject: Re: Dennis Ritchie On Thu, Oct 13, 2011 at 12:14 PM, David Coppa wrote: Today is a sad sad day :( Rest in Peace.

Re: Dennis Ritchie
Like Theo has said "The world doesn't live off jam and fancy perfumes - it
lives off bread and meat and potatoes." Den was a bread guy.
It's worth noting too, that Steve Jobs (deservedly) has quite the memorial
going on TV and the internet. But some of his biggest innovations (OS X,
NEXT, iOS) were UNIX based, and without Den, most people might not know
Steve Jobs.
Long live the bread meat and potatoes guys.

Re: Dennis Ritchie
I pointed out that Dennis Ritchie did something we all should admire:
Got to watch what he created blossom, and change the world.
Remarkably, for the better.
We should all be so lucky.

Re: Dennis Ritchie
That's true. However, I don't think we should feel upset about it. I'm
sure Mr Ritchie just wanted to contribute to the world, as many hackers
of that time and he did it. This is his greatest achievement. Great
people don't wait for an admiration. They just do whatever they can to
make their dreams come true.
I truly admire all individuals and genuses who make our world even
little less problematic.

Re: Dennis Ritchie
So many lives touched, so many that don't even know about it. That
saddens me the most, that so many are using products of his
achievements daily to make their lives comfortable and only a small
minority know what it took to get here.
