| A huge number of us labor behind the scenes with no public acknowledgment or credit. For each idea brought to life we might hope for -at most- an epitaph carved in expired patent claims. This story is touching. |

| It is, indeed. Thanks for writing that up, it touched me. And thanks for being the historian of our culture-that-eschews culture (or so it seems to me sometimes, that tech tries to exist in a perennial present without acknowledging it's roots and history) |

| ▲ | hellojohnbuck 12 hours ago | parent [-] | | thanks isoprophlex for the acknowledgment. so many of the folks that i have interviewed, contributed so much to making tech or a product better for all. especially at or around apple. they receieved none of the credit that the 'names' got. ;-) you know who i mean. |
