hello san francisco

It is with great remorse that we mark the passing of programming language pioneer and A.M. Turing Laureate Niklaus Wirth, who passed away on Jan 1, 2024. Wirth developed a sequence of innovative computer languages, EULER, ALGOL-W, MODULA and PASCAL, which provided a foundation…

Wonderful to see you included here, Alishba.
