Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon computer science professor whose last lecture became an Internet sensation and bestselling book, has died of pancreatic cancer. He was 47.

At some point we will need to talk about the things he said, for now, let us mark his passing.

He, imo, was a remarkable man.

Yeah. I saw that yesterday and was quite sad about it.

E.G. (AKA The Professor) was sent the video back when it first went viral and it made a huge impression on him.

I haven't seen the video or read the book, but I get the idea.

A friend emailed a video of his "Last Lecture" to me a few months ago. Very powerful and very moving.

Yes, he was a remarkable man. So sad to hear that he is gone now. Sad
