We lost computer pioneer John von Neumann on this day in 1957; the "von
Neumann" architecture (stored program etc) is the basis of all modern
computers, and he almost certainly borrowed it from Charles Babbage.

John von Neumann halted in 1957; without him, we probably would not have
had computers as we know them (CPU-buss-memory etc).
