Today marks the 69th anniversary of the death of Alan Turing, the "father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence".
"It is impossible to speak of Turing’s achievements and legacy without also mentioning the brutal, institutionalised homophobia that saw him persecuted as a gay man and ultimately cut his life short."
@stefan He was pushed to suicide for being gay. I would have understood that in Spain, where there was a fascist dictatorship. What was Great Britain's excuse to do so? @Drneuro
