Dennis Ritchie died over the weekend. He was most notable for being the the co-creator of UNIX and C.
Fuck Steve Jobs, his ideas over the past decade have not been invoative, and he seemed to be a pompus asshole, as most mac users are. So yeah…the world lost somebody great. :(
RIP Dennis. I <3 my C.

Live and let live, we're all assholes.Steve jobs was a very popular marketer and did his best to help make quality products.
Making a language is different because it takes a different kind of skill. Also, relatively speaking, the number of people who know how to program is incredibly outnumbered to the number of people who know of apple, or even who own apple products.Different people, different reasons to be remembered.I agree with Alert Games. Couldn't have said it better.
lmao @ Steve Jobs.
RIP Dennis.Death is here to listen to us discussing his handiwork.
I agree with Rawrspoon. Obviously the accomplishments seen of some people could be seen as shortcomings by everyone else. But its true that once the person is dead there is nobody who is the same person. If you liked the guy or not you wont be able to love or hate him anymore. edit: for anything else they would have done.
cuz he deadSorry, I forgot your first post too AG:
and let's make this sentence run on longer. Sure some of their stuff was good, but it's not like if another company wanted to, they couldn't come up with the same things.
