Damn, that's sad. I had a similar moment yesterday while thinking about Max Allen, the interviewer during that CBC show with Ted Nelson where they were talking about computers in 1979.

I wonder if these people ever got to know a bit about the things they didn't understand at the time. I also wonder if I'll ever get to know about the unknown unknowns in my life :)

What's also sad is some idiot went there from that link and left an abusive comment on his memorial website referencing Hacker News. Pretty pathetic, whoever did that.

I think I speak for all the developed brains on this website when I say that defacement is pathetic and weak, clearly coming from an impotent individual.

Rest in peace Mr. Traister, we love you even though C kinda thorned ya. :-)

Or as my mother taught me: "people who write in public places have stupid names and ugly faces."
