while i am generally loathe to comment on HN, i consider it truly sad to see the passing of grothendieck. he was a truly revolutionary mathematician and his contribution to the (hard) science of mathematics cannot be overstated. people who live on principle are rare, and those willing to go without salary as part of that protest are even rarer [1].
