Learned about Terry today

i'm really sad for him, he was really a genius and he could've given a lot more than more famous IT people roaming and boasting around, I hope his family is alright and that he can rest in peace now.

i find it really hypocritical how tech industry is so obsessed with "diversity" and "inclusion", and they weren't able to help a guy so brilliant with his mental health problems. we should make his story widespread so that all these hypocrites look at themselves and are forced to do some self examination (or at least to put such matters to the public eye and make them realize that people with actual disabilities should be the one to take care of, especially if they're such geniuses that would be wasted otherwise)

it really is pretty amazing what he accomplished on his own despite his illness. makes ya wonder what he could've accomplished assuming he wasn't afflicted with mental issues

RIP truthfully an inspiration

>tfw basedboy Terry will never call me a retarded nigger faggot again

These feels

Terry was a white male. Diversity and inclusion have no place for white males. Even suggesting that a white male was anything more than average is a cardinal sin. Please delete this post immediately.

He wasn't a genius. Any CS undergrad will make a basic operating system in just one semester. It's only reasonable that in more than ten years of full time development he could add some colors, a C-like compiler and a basic 3d renderer.
He really wasn't above the average C programmer. He was only famous because of his schizophrenia. There are other single man OSes such as Visopsys, but they aren't as famous because their authors aren't outrageous schizos.

yeah or if he had some aid, both professional and personal, from a team instead of being ignored and treated like a fool. we're all "accept this, accept that" but when it's people who actually our help we turn our back huh?

look what you did
