2/10. Surprised that Hans Reiser wasn't on the list. (Or I didn't see him.)

  That one is a trick question if sorts.

    Personally I think of him as a murderer first and a programmer second.

    Nope; he wrote a file system, not a programming language.

  wow you are almost exactly backwards. do you hate language inventors?
  • Jigsy 3y ago
    Not really. I just assumed nearly everyone was a programmer. "Wow, what a sweet old lady. I'm guessing she invented Fortra-- oh, she, murdered people for their social security checks."

  As far as we're aware, he doesn't belong to either category (yet).
  • Jigsy 3y ago
    Oh yeah, that makes sense. I keep forgetting he killed just his wife, not his kids as well.

      And I think spree and serial killings are different things.
