		DanBC on April 30, 2015 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Paul Hudak, co-creator of Haskell, has died On HN the top orange[1] bar is sometimes changed to black when someone significant[2] to computing dies. [1] orange unless you've got enough karma to set it to some other value [2] significant to computing is not the right phrase here, sorry for clumsiness.

Perhaps just: "someone significant to the community".
