it's not like we wouldn't have any programming languages without Ritchie's group's work, they were just the most successful. There were languages before, C was just the best attempt at something portable, but the time for portable languages had just come. If not for Ritchie, somebody else would have invented something similar to solve that problem. Today's languages probably would just look a bit different…
@funkycoder1 Thats terrible logic. You can say that about anything. If not Newton figuring out F = mdv/dt someone else would have came along and done it. If not Einstein coming up with G = 8piT then someone else would have eventually done it.
@floopsie666 well exactly. In science you combine things nobody thought of combining before, but you don't pull things from thin air. So if Newton hadn't invented calculus, somebody else would have (and indeed, Leibnitz did). What's false is the statement "without the inventor, we wouldn't have what they invented", because somebody else could have invented it. Same with the personal computer. If Jobs hadn't combined Xerox findings with his own, somebody would have.
@eMGeeGFX No, you misunderstand. I do know about C and Unix plenty. I want to know about the history of the *man* who eventually made these things. In other words is there a biography? I might as well go to Wikipedia now that its come to mind.
@nightowl8936, that has little to do with understanding or misunderstanding. Your inquiry wasn't all too specific, now was it? I guess Wikipedia, for all its flaws, could be a good starting point for that.
@TheNatie500 So? He popularized computers. The GUI and mouse were not invented by him, but he made them essential parts of the computer. And by the way windows os (pc, call it whatever you want) was "borrowing" A LOT of ideas from Apple operation systems. Dennis Ritchie was a very (times 1000) talented and important personality for IT world but without Steve you would have no use of what he've done. So think before exposing your stupidity (and lack of grammar knowledge) to public.

Lol, Dennis Ritchie wasn't ignored... I thought anyone who knew anything about C/UNIX or programming in general had heard about him. the only thing "ignored" about him was his death.
With all due respect, Steve Jobs is NOT retarded. Without him, we would have computers in our homes, apartments, etc.! Because he made the computer available for regular people. He made most songs costs 99cents! Even if you're using Windows, you still owe Steve. He made the first personal computer, and Windows just made it better. So without Mac, there is no Windows! So please, research before you call an innovator a retard.
It is pretty sad that one of the most important pioneers in the computing community died and almost nobody noticed. Of course it's sad that they both died, both being innovators, but Ritchie undeniably did more than Jobs.
this always happens when commercial is just for young and ignorant people, could you imagine if one of the kardasshians or whatever theyr names are, if they hear about unix or C , never mind, even the money makes or gives some inportance the ignorance is brightg on all them, but is just for convenience, the real life the most important people is ignored by stupids, but never by the most of smart and available to understand that is
not important when they really satisfy creativity and makes usefull over al the word and may be for eternity, an iPod could or will be foregiven, not apple maybe, but nobody will remmmeber to bill gates, or no one alse, even you or me, or the people like paris hilton or kardishians, who cares at last
Thanks you for all . You're the Einstein of Computing, I hope that you going to be reminded in the next generations by all computing students as Father of computing.
It's so sad that the person that influenced more the world of computing dont received the same attention that Steve Jobs.
Yes, and without Alan Turing, we would have no concept on which to build the whole idea of computation in the first place. Does that mean we should say fuck you to Dennis because without Turing there would be no Unix and no C? Sure, he deserves praise. But equally so does Jobs, who introduced personal computing to the masses and single-handedly saved us from the corruption of the greedy media companies who, without his idea for iTunes, would have pushed bills like SOPA through a decade ago.
@PoliticalHell yes this is true, but the whole point of the video is to acknowledge the fact that there was no equal praise, they died 7 days apart and yet there was almost no mention of Dennis Ritchie dying on the news because all of the attention was given to steve jobs
@marianopaz09 It always was and always will be an inner-circle thing. People who don't know about programming or computers as much as the "experts" or hobbyists likely don't even know what C is. But they all know what a computer is, and they all know Apple. You can't blame society for that, especially in a culture where everyone is trained with either expertise in one specific field, or none at all. You're right, he deserves praise, but he does get it from the people who matter.
@PoliticalHell This video is about Steve Jobs and Dennis Ritchie because they died 1 week apart yet Steve jobs was all over the news and there was no mention of Ritchie. Alan turing died decades ago, but while we're on the topic, Dennis did win the Turing award :)
@Nikon05 Yeah, but I just don't see why everyone has to take it so personal and bash on Steve Jobs. Its not his fault he died 1 week apart from Ritchie, who wouldn't have gotten any media attention regardless. If they died months apart, videos like this wouldn't exist. I find it sad that people use anything as an excuse for hate these days.
Alan Turing was a theoretician, who was into metamathematics and computability, and laid down important foundations for physical machines that would later be designed by John Von Neumann and others, such as Seymour Cray.
We do owe a very important debt to Alan Turing: Freedom/Victory during WW2. He was one of the chief designers of the British machines that broke the German enigma code, that helped win the war against the U-Boats. US code machines begat supercomputing.
No Programs? We would all read in Binary? Fortran, Lisp, BASIC, Pascal and many other programming languages were created before C. I do agree though, that Dennis Ritchie was a great great man.
All innovators stand on the shoulder of giants. Steve Jobs is as famous and loved as he deserves. No need to credit Edison and the likes (or even Ritchie) for his accomplishments.
it is just about visibility. Jobs is more well-known because of his visibility. But it doesn't mean Dennis's contribution is being ignored. People just don't understand his work ( as a founder of C and Unix) as they are not into computer science and technology.
i think both steve jobs & dennis ritchie are outstanding but in different ways. About why media over-praise Steve Jobs, it is because they (media) do not understand anything about technologies. To me, Dennis Ritchie is greatest computer scientist and Steve Jobs is the greatest business thinker.
You made an error when you said, "No iProducts" without Steve. It's true we would not have iPods or iPads, but we would still have MP3 players, still have tablets, and still have music for sale online (through amazon and other venues). They might even have been called iPlayers and iTablets
.
Trivia - The name "iPad" was not invented by Steve. It was invented by Star Trek in 1988. Go back and rewatch the electronic pads everyone carries around the enterprise
@harleykman Without Dennis Ritchie, there would be no iProducts. Mac OS and iOS were written in "C"(invented by Dennis) and "objective C"(modification of C). That means without Dennis, no Steve
And without Ritchie, we wouldn't even really have apple. Because we wouldn't have Unix, which would make Mac OS X non existent, and since iProducts are based off Max OS X we would have never got that far.
I am just learning about Mr. Dennis Ritchie. From what it seems like, he is to Steve Jobs, what Nikola Tesla was to Henry Ford. Tesla did all the work, Ford received the credit and popularity. Not at all saying that Steve didn't work hard. He did a lot. In conclusion, RIP to both great men. Ritchie and Jobs will be missed.
No dude, Ritchie created the C language, which was a milesone among programming languages back then. The C++ is an extension of the C language created by Bjarne Stroustop. So yeah, If we had no C, we wont have C++ today. RIP Dennis Ritchie...
then i will go worship the person that invented computer, and with that i should know who invented electricity as well.. without them there is no computer and there will be no C.. You should understand now..
Oh boo hoo hoo, sniff sniff. We can dig up even more important contributors to computer science, machinery, and languages. We can sit here and smugly do it all day. (Who will cry when Chuck Peddle dies? Were you at Konrad Zuse's funeral? Did you visit the Alan Turing memorial?). Steve Jobs lead brilliant people to turn bus signals, conditional statements, data structures, and daemons into touching human experiences and powerful tools for "mere mortals", while commanding one of the greatest t
Indeed media ignores all the important people and everyone who actually does something "HUGE, AMAZING" as Steve Jobs would say. Media is too focused on making news of Lady Gaga and good damn athletics. What they have done??? Achieved something on personal level yea! But people like Dennis has achieved something that affects billions of people on Earth.
That may sound bad but I really don't care about Steve Jobs, but Dennis Ritchie... That's definetly a big loss, almost all the computing world in based on his work.
@aliancemd I agree at a point, myself would never purchase an Apple product, but Steve did a great job separating money from his customers and mind-washing them that his device is essential.
Dennis Ritchie; the only person which people and media should be commerating. RIP both.
@HorrorMusicSorcerer I think as time goes on society changes. I'm lucky at the old age of 20 ( I mean old because as all do, I wish was younger) I just discovered the brilliance of science. Sure the media will always portray all the glimmer, but as the worlds advances and more scientific discoveries are made I think youngsters will respect brains more and more. Take a look our new rising tech billionaires. Entrepreneurs are getting younger in the tech field and its cool to be a nerd. : )
Bad comparison, SJ was a CEO and a very public figure. That's the reason his death wad more publicized. DR is know better among geeks (among which I count myself) than among regular folks.
@agusvegafrias It's a good comparison but the idea that people would renown a social figure over someone who's accomplished more is depressing, as a human society to acknowledge popularity over greater development. So really as Kanye would say
"Apple fans Imma let you finish, but Michael Jackson had the greatest funeral and worldwide acknowledged death of all time"
This is an amazing video.
