I didn’t personally know your dad, but like many others here depended on his work with QModem during the late 80s and early 90s. The fact we are all on Hacker News is evidence of how it impacted our lives - and the relevance of the community here.
Thank you for posting - I’ve enjoyed reading the outpouring of history and stories and hope it brings you the same sense of wonder it has me. Godspeed to you and your family.
Similar to all the rest of you HN lurkers, especially the grey beards - thanks for being here and thank for keeping the “hacker” in “hacker news” alive.
