RIP Niklaus Wirth. :(

Creator of various programming languages like #modula #modula2 #oberon #oberon2 #oberon07 #pascal and more... the Oberon OS, and interesting computing hardware, such as the Lilith computer, has passed on the 1st of Jan.

He was one of the few people who actually made the full computing stack, from a language and compiler to OS, to hardware to run it on.

I'm hoping that re-imagining computing from the ground up like that, didn't just die with him.
