I was following him on Twitter, and it was always amazing that a genius like him took the time to respond to people on Twitter with insightful comments. Showed what a great human being he was. RIP Joe.



Not just that, but he also struggled in public with things we all struggle with, often with incredible humor. His struggles with Grunt.js come to mind. His humanity and charisma was in full force, and you can tell he worked in full grace and gratitude. His work of course is a testament to this.


same. i had some interaction with him on twitter, years ago, and somehow he wound up following me(!). RIP Joe.
