Non sequitor here but both of these things happened during pablo picassos lifetime

As a great name in the artworld i was always surprised that lived in the modern era and not a previous one like many other "everyone knows these names" artists

In science, especially math, all the famous scientists lived long ago. Newton, Euler, etc.

In computer science only the very pioneers are dead already. A lot of groundbreaking work was done by people who are still alive, or even still in working age.

It's so weird!
