It would be interesting to see how many of us that has had conversations with Pieter Hintjens. I suspect a sizable chunk of the HN crowd has interacted with him. I've enjoyed his company on many conferences, and while he presents himself in a very direct manner, he is also friendly and enjoyable to talk with.
- PieterH 10y agoFunny, that is how I feel about 95% of the thousands of programmers I've talked with over the last years. :)
- augustl 10y agoI'm not sure why, but something makes you stand out. I love that you present without slides, for example, and I can't think of anyone else doing that.
- rbanffy 10y agoI am a bit saddened I never had the chance. He seems like a great guy. Knowing how to die is as important as knowing how to live, perhaps more. As he leaves us, he is giving us all an important lesson.
