When posts exude self-righteous anger and present "me against the world" rhetoric then they become narcissistic ramblings which obscure any salient kernels of information that may lie beneath layers of loathing.
Dr Ritchie and Mr Jobs were very different people who worked in a field so broad in many respects that it easily encompasses such diversity. Whereas Dennis Ritchie was a creator, inventor and scientist, Steve Jobs was an entrepreneur and technologist. Both will be remembered for different reasons. They were both important figures but Jobs sacrificed a certain degree of privacy while Ritchie chose to live a quiet life. Consequently, the general public were more aware of Steve Jobs passing while, on the whole, only a select portion of the population knew about Dennis Ritchie's death.
In a number of respects, Steve Jobs may have stood on the shoulders of Dennis Ritchie but he, in turn, stood on the shoulders of Martin Richards (Before C Programming Language ;-) and others preceded them. Innovation is frequently acknowledged as the work of one but often comes from the minds of many. Programming languages actually predate the computer so, sadly, there are a great many people who made a significant contribution to this field and slipped away almost unnoticed.
It's sad that two men, who both made contributions to our society, should be pitted against each other in a macabre debate about who is more worthy of being remembered.
