RANDY PAUSCH, RIP
The young (47 years old) father and professor of computer science at Carnegie Mellon University has died after a brief battle against pancreatic cancer.
Not long ago, his “last lecture” at Carnegie Mellon made him famous, as the apparently fit and healthy young man explained his situation, the way he was dealing with it, and the life and learning that made it possible for him to face the future with such grace.
The guys at POWERLINE have posted an announcement with all the relevant links, including one to the video of his last lecture, and another to a great obituary.
You can get all of it HERE
RIP, Randy Pausch.
