Vint Cerf is often referred to as "the Father of the Internet"; I suspect at his insentience. Really tho it was Jon Postel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_P

- LukeShu 4y agoFrom your link: > [Jon Postel] was referred to as the "god of the Internet" I think that beats Cerf's "father of the Internet". But really, IME (but maybe I'm just a nerd) Postel is at least as famous as Cerf.
- convolvatron 4y agoI've never heard that. Jon was just reallly nice person who genuinely wanted to help. personally I think he would have been a little offended oh, I'm right https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Postel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Postel
- LeifCarrotson 4y agoIs insentience a bit of parapraxis? I expect you meant to say at his insistence.
- samiam_iam 4y agoIDK, insentience certainly works too, and maybe better. Plus I learned two new words today. All good. Carry on.
- h2odragon 4y agoYou are correct, that is an error. Serendipity perhaps :)
