Title prior to admins changing it was "Trevor Moore, co-founder of Whitest Kids U Know, dies at 41"
I think it's especially tragic when someone so talented dies at what many of us would consider a young age. Trevor's comedic takes on a wide range of topics (occasionally touching on technology, AI, robotics) left a profound impact on me.

- Exmoor 5y agoSeems like HN policy is that all death announcements get the "John Doe Has Died" title. Probably makes it easier to avoid weird comment threads proclaiming that "John Doe didn't really invent the robotic sex doll!" or what have you.
- asxd 5y agoSame here. In the back of my mind I was always kind of looking forward to what he would create next. I grew up watching WKUK and am a bit biased, but in any case he'll be missed. Also, if you're a fan and haven't seen it, it's worth checking out the movie-length Civil War On Drugs: https://archive.org/details/thecivilwarondrugs https://archive.org/details/thecivilwarondrugs.
