[OFF-TOPIC] Steve Jobs vs Dennis Ritchie

Steve Jobs as a hipster and seller of stolen ideas, died 05 October 2011. Without Steve Jobs we would have: No iProuducts and No ever-expensive Laptops. Dennis Ritchie, the inventor of UNIX and C, died 12 October 2011. Without Dennis Ritchie we would have: No Windows, No Linux/Unix, No C and descendants such as C++ Java C# etc, A large setback in Computing, and maybe we would all read in Binary!! Whereas Steve Praised by Media as Jesus of Computing, Dennis Ignored . . . . . . . . .

That's sad. But you know , we can do this work better by creating a code on Dennis Ritchie!

ritchie...created languages...os ..man... no way of comparing him with any1 and with respect to everything... i wanna say that... jobs was an high skilled businessman.. who knew what is it to get the world... without him apple would be like a normal..phone... "you wont make billion dollar company..without any wrong doing" so they both are inherenly incomparable... both created there and worlds new history..

it was apple only which started gui application and started a personal computer revolution(definitely along with microsoft),without this computer may still be a thing for universities and govt. And maybe there would be nothing like sololearn. both denis ritchie and steve jobs are responsible for where we are today.

I don't really like Apple, ... maybe it would have been different if Steve Wozniak had been CEO. Dennis Ritchie! 👍
