wow, this really is crappy news.  I had just dug out a bunch of old school projects to mess around with last night using Mono in Mint.

I half remember C#, but am totally clueless when it comes to C++ and before.  Time to self teach during my free time.......

Yeah, I wonder if he died on purpose so he could go find Jobs ghost and punch him in the cock.

I was sorry to hear about Dennis Ritchie, but I guess he led a full life. Here's to someone who actually did influence modern computing.

That has to be the most popular programming book ever. It's been out for decades, and people are still buying it and finding it useful.

They publish new editions.  I have an edition from 2004 I think. 

It really is a sweet book.
