The inventor of the "cut, copy and paste" feature, which is used in the field of computers, has died at the age of 74, according to the company "Xerox" reported in a Tweet.
Lawrence Tessler, born in New York in 1945, worked for several years with this American printer manufacturer. The company explained, "The former researcher in Xerox invented several computer orders, including cutting, copying, pasting, searching and replacing."
Lawrence "Larry" Tesler K, a Stanford University graduate in Silicon Valley, California, specializes in human-computer interaction. He worked especially with Amazon, Apple, Yahoo! and Xerox Research Center in Palo Alto.
He appears to have been inspired by the "copy and paste" feature of a pre-digital technology that cut and paste parts of printed sentences with duct tape elsewhere.
This feature was included in the diaries of individuals thanks to "Apple", which included it on the computer "Lisa" in 1983 and the computer "Macintosh" in the following year.
Steve Jobs hired Apple founder Larry Tessler in 1980 while he was still working for Xerox. The engineer spent 17 years in this group leading to the position of senior scientists there.
He then founded an emerging education and education company and conducted missions around the user experience for Amazon and Yahoo!
