Dennis Ritchie has died too

He died on october 8'th. He was the father of C and Unix. Truly a year of loss for the computing world, no?

Indeed.

RIP.

Very much so, I'm surprised by the fact that the news barely even mentioned his death, considering the fact that without him, there probably wouldn't have been an Apple.

Wow, October gotta suck for Apple.

My guess is mainstream news didn't mention his death as much because fewer people know who he is, in comparison to Steve Jobs
