Which programmers or systems architects are overrated? I'll start with picrel.
>>108113644iirc von neumann was one of the most intelligent people in human historyterry davis is probably overrated, not because he wasn't good, but because normies think he was the best
>>108113644Indians.
literally all of them
>>108113672Indians invented numbers. Brahmins are the original programmers.
None of the highly-regarded programmers/software architects are really overrated. Even Dijkstra with some of his nonconforming opinions was great because of exactly that. You should be able to stimulate someone's intellectual curiosity through unconventional thought without being called a faggot on 4chan decades later.
>>108113644idk if johnny boy was a good programmer specifically but he was an incredible computer scientist and mathematician which is more importantalso we're not on /sci/ but this is still required viewinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nJBF_H56Oc
>>108113724this. even richard stallman gets bragging rights. either you were there or you weren't
>>108113644how is Von Neumann overratedhe is a strong contender for the most intelligent person in modern history and he was funny as shit too
>>108113644>von neumannalright nice bait OP you got a reply from me
>>108113644nice bait, here's an actual one
>>108113644How is it even biologically possible to be as smart as him? How can a random sequence of alleles produce a being that isn't merely one step ahead, but basically a world apart from everyone else? Most importantly, how has natural selection not produced more like him?
>>108113644Neumann contributed to so many fields. He is extremely underrated.
