Legendary contributor.

Thinking that the Python software foundation decided to ban this person for frivolous reasons is both laughable and sad.

As a programmer who used Python, I'm in debt to him.

Ah, yes who more fitting to give a eulogy than Guido, who so bravely spoke up when the woke crazies tried to defenestrate (the unfailingly polite, kind and patient) Tim not even 2 years before his death.

I learned about Timsort and used it in a class as a student long ago. RIP.

If someone has a great photo of Tim they'd be willing to license to Wikimedia for his page, it would be appreciated.
