We're losing them far too quickly.
Dennis Ritchie, co-creator of both the Unix operating system and the C programming language, has passed away at the age of 70.
And just to complete the day, Robert Galvin, a Motorola exec who, after seeing the communicator on the original Star Trek, gave us the cell phone, is no longer answering. He was 89.

Code:

printf("Goodbye, world.\n");
