This so cool!! I have photos of my Grandfather with Mr. Hewlett and Mr. Packard, too! They went fly fishing in Oregon every year.

in honor of Mother’s Day i lost my mom young (
) and my grandmother took the wheel. She’s a large reason why i am who i am.
this is the SV equivalent of being a Hollywood nepo baby like “My grandpa is Alfred Hitchcock”
(i am obviously joking, this is so freaking cool dude!)
being labelled the "traitorous eight" had to have been the most badass street cred.
Awesome, wonder who got the replica Fairchild logo sign made up. Definitely wasn’t from Sherman, who probably resented them all for them abandoning ship (otherwise he would have ended up the richest man in the world probably).
That’s so cool that your grandpa is one of the infamous hateful 8. It’s lovely that they loved each other
Weren't the spinoffs called fairchildren because of the drama and bad management of the workplace?
This is delightful to hear.
Still grateful to consider my two co-founders at brothers.
In a world of founder-drama, it seems uncanny that the three of us having met when we were in our early 20s would grow and remain friends.
What an achievement and what a legacy - both the company and their enduring friendship!
Thank you for sharing this!
My grandpa worked for fairchild semiconductor after robert noyce brought him out west and founded four phase systems with lee boysel
Very cool. What if you and all of the other grandchildren took a photo together and very generally described the areas of math, science, and computer science you studied (if any)?
That group of men changed human civilization. They invented the future.
have cooked with Poke but personally I want an AI executive assistant that doesn't insult me and charge me a fair price... Good thing, I built mine! 
is this the same room? why did they cover that brick?
The best thing I saw today. Thank you for sharing - I send love to you and your family... generations 
Thought you may find this really cool. I don’t know? But did you know some of these guys?
Our favorite equation is:
Obscure feature+obscure feature+obscure feature = Bug
For your weekend reading, Michael Gibson writes about how we found a bug in the C++ compiler -- without using Antithesis.
Link below, for the algorithm will not be denied.
Today vibe coding goes pro.
Introducing Bolt v2:
→ World's best agents (Claude Code, Codex)
→ Built in backend (hosting, DB, storage, ...)
→ No error loops, no setup nightmares
Now anyone can build without boundaries.

Why was your grandfather allowed to work without diversity but now it is forced on any White man who wants to associate with other White men?
My aunt must have known them all working there in the 60s.
She said, “some of my work friends asked me to join them at a new company they were starting, I was already planning my restaurant so I declined.” The company her “work friends” started was called ‘Intel Corporation’.
Very cool, thanks for sharing. Serious question, How did you end up gay?
