Andrew Tanenbaum is in a no way Dutch. States as much in his Wikipedia article. There are plenty of Dutch scientists, including in CS, so no need to gekoloniseren another one.
- tgv 3y agoHe's lived and worked in The Netherlands since over 35 years, possibly 40.
- FeistySkink 3y agoDoes that make him Dutch?
- tgv 3y agoIt's 52 years: https://www.cs.vu.nl/~ast/home/cv.pdf https://www.cs.vu.nl/~ast/home/cv.pdf, but he's still an American citizen. You be the judge, but it's certainly not unfair to call him American-Dutch.
- helloooooooo 3y agoIs calling any permanent resident who is not a citizen Dutch reasonable?
- 29athrowaway 3y ago"Tanenbaum! You SOB" [handshake sound]
- oefnak 3y agoIf he speaks Dutch, and rides a bike, I'd say he passes the duck test.

- FeistySkink 3y agoYou're right, this was unnecessary.
