Quote:
quoted from "https://lwn.net/Articles/462859/" As one of the founders of Unix, and more importantly the philosophy unix embodied, Dennis Ritchie has an echo in practically every company and technology in use around the world today.

By the founder and visionary of the free OS and "C" coding language

RIP

die hard Linux supporters (i'm not) would probably no him the most any way
Linux is such a small computer community that most of the time it is unnoticed

Let me reword that second sentance so it has atleast a thread on structure to it. It looks like a dictonary just sneezed.

Die-hard Linux supporters (which I'm not) would probably know him more then most.

If I'm correct Dennis Ritchie was the creator of the C programming langauge and more or less created the Unix OS as well.

I haven't heard of Unix OS either. C programming, like the C++ programing class or am I thinking of something else?

Was there really any topic to begin with? Not to back-seat mod or whatever they call this, but all I've seen in this thread so far are spam posts and personal attacks, with vague "R.I.P." messages stuck between.
I don't think we need a thread here for every semi-famous computer guy who dies.
