Another pioneer in the IT passed away: at age 70, Dennis Ritchie (aka dmr), pioneer, creator of the C programming language and key developer of Unix died this weekend.

Within a week, two pioneering IT people went. Let’s remember them for what they were and wish the people left behind all the best.
