You all know by now how I feel about this tragedy that shouldn’t have happened!

One of the world’s first freelance programmers logs off

Rest, in Peace Mary Lee Berners-Lee! She had a great run that lasted 93 years! And a true pioneer, as were the crew of Challenger.

Her kids weren’t too shabby either.

The Challenger disaster was so predictable. It is really appalling that they let the launch go forward.
