Nobody is arguing about that. Least of all Nish (Nishant). Just look up a few of his articles to see his credentials in that department. What he was pointing out to you was that this had already been reported here in The Lounge, earlier today[^].

Is that exchange rate current? I would expect to get more Jobs to the Ritchie than that.

Totally. Not only dis hos language get used for almost every OS, embedes syatem, and driver in the sorld. But it also went on to provide a landuage for a lot of applications, and provide the base for C++. Its syntax was also copied by two of the other most used languages in the world. Java and C#. Clrearly, his contribution to IT is immense, beyond measure.

Best eulogy I've seen today found here[^]:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
printf("goodbye, dad\n");
return 0;
}

Kevin Spacey would agree.
