TITLE:
Dennis Ritchie dissertation
DESCRIPTION:This fuckin guy FINISHED his phd but never officially received one from harvard because he didnt want to pay the binding fee to the university. This is what the fathers of computing were like. That's what birthed computing. Now when we look at the reality of what computing is today, what do we see? What are computers used for? To solidify the position of the rich, to assert themselves as those in charge - despite the fact that the people who MADE the tools that the rich and powerful use to conquer and dominate USED their facilities to create said tools, and didn't care at all for receiving their names or symbols of power, intelligence, or capability.
However they weren't cognizant enough of how these tools would be used - RMS is off on his own complaining about how mobile phones are monitored instead of coming up with ways to make the fact that ISPs and big tech HAVE all of our data unimportant.
