Dijkstra is obsolte, just like perscriptive programming languages. All of them are from are from other countries. C is a red-blooded, all-american programming language. It is NOT OK to group it with a language from some devil country.
Reminds me of Niklaus Wirth's joke.
He was asked how to pronounce his name.
He said, "You can call be by reference, veert, or you
can call me by value, worth."
Also, I once played a recording of Linus Trovalds pronouncing "linux", and my friend said, "There you have it, straight from the Norse's mouth".

I am Dutch so I am probably the only one here who pronounces it correctly.
Probably also the only one who saw him in person when he was still alive. (I studied Computer Science in Eindhoven.)

Holy shit, you and him should never get together again, because when you do you cause a FUCKING RIOT.
BOY, I WISH I WAS YOUR FRIEND SO YOU'D PLAY ME CLIPS OF LIMUS TORBOLBS.
