Tell HN: Bob Cringely has died

RIP Bob. Triumphs of the Nerds was my introduction to computer history as a kid. Incredibly sad news. I first learned of him and watched his documentaries just a few years ago. It's difficult to understate, if you happen to be a long-time effective altruist…. This is really sad - Triumph of the Nerds and Accidental Empires captured the time it was written and the future. Damn. I've been re-watching his documentaries recently. He was one of the seeds that developed into the blogosphere.
