Computing pioneer Evelyn Berezin, Lyudmila Alexeyeva 1927~2018,The grandmother of the human-rights movement in Russia


美國電腦先驅 Evelyn Berezin 日前辭世，終年 93 歲。Berezin 於上世紀六十年代發明世界上第一台擁有編輯、刪除、「複製及貼上」等功能的電腦化文字處理器，為當時的辦公室秘書的工作帶來革命性轉變。
雖然 Berezin 的名聲不如其他電腦先驅般家喻戶曉，但英國作家希德利（Gwyn Headley）曾撰文表示，如果沒有她的發明，「我們就不會有Bill Gates，不會有Steve Jobs，不會有互聯網，不會有文字處理器，不會有試算表，不會有 21 世紀的所有遙距企業。」
