Another great person is gone. In case you 've never heard of him:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niklaus_Wirth
. He was the father of Pascal and Modula. And there's also Wirth's law: software is getting slower more rapidly than hardware is becoming faster (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wirth's_law
).
