good to remember

This is a summary of a “Last Lecture” from Randy Pausch, a professor at Carnegie Mellon. He is a pioneer in virtual reality and CA techniques, and did pretty amazing stuff relating to technology and IT. But he has contracted cancer, and after trying everything he could, the cancer remains, so a few weeks ago, he gave his last lecture to his students, and any last lecture is a poignant showing of who someone is, but it’s even more so when it’s death and not retirement knocking at the door. If you have time, watch the full version here, or just watch the 10 minute summary after the jump
