Richard Stallman was the greatest programmer in history

That's right, better than Dijkstra and Steve Wozniak

Disagree and you're a fanboy


Oh wait a minute, you pre meds don't know anything about relevant information like politics.

Pitiful, pitiful.

ahaha, continue learning about how supernova are classifed in your little astrophysics seminar.

Knuth is maybe a second place, but only because he can write more books than anyone

Stallman likes to ride on people's coattails. Pic related.

If you are reading this, there's a good chance it's my fault.

>Dijkstra

>Despite having invented much of the technology of software, Dijkstra eschewed the use of computers in his own work for many decades. Almost all EWDs appearing after 1972 were hand-written. When lecturing, he would write proofs in chalk on a blackboard rather than using overhead foils, let alone Powerpoint slides. Even after he succumbed to his UT colleagues’ encouragement and acquired a Macintosh computer, he used it only for e-mail and for browsing the World Wide Web.

Badass, that's someone you could look up to
