R.I.P. Frederick Phillips Brooks Jr., architect of IBM's OS/360 and author of "The Mythical Man-Month". - Nov. 17, 2022. I thought he had passed away decades ago. It would have been possible for us to cross paths during my stint in NC 1988-1991.

I was in NC 1990-1992. I also enjoyed IBM 360 (and Magnuson) a million years ago. Frank Farmer FTW.

That makes two near-misses with greatness during my NC sojourn. ;)
