Good work Dagogo! - a really interesting episode! Having lived through all that you talk about and being involved with a lot of it, it was great to see you consolidate the histroy into a digestible couple of episodes!

I can't even imagine how the people who started Fairchild and Intel must feel about the drastic change their invention brought to the world. It won't be exaggerating if I say it was as revolutionary as the invention of Wheels.

Coldfusion on Intel while cooking, nice day to everyone from Greece

edit: wow, so many kind people around the globe watching, keep it on guys

It's fascinating to realize that Fairchild Semiconductor is The O.G. startup that define the 'startup culture' as we know today.

Yes, every company has a starting point (either big or small), but the contemporary term of "start up" as a culture (especially in tech industry) is an entirely different story.

For example, agriculture has been around since tens of thousands of years ago, but modern Agricultural Revolution (between mid 17th to mid 19th century) made it much more EFFECTIVE and EFFICIENT because of the increasing number of labor and land availability.

This is parallel with the current tech industry. The discovery of silicon as semiconductor makes everything much more efficient. And history has told us that everything will eventually be replaced with a more efficient version of that thing (mostly on economical standpoint).

But this idea of "startups" is going to be problematic if we glorify and romanticize it too much. It'll create another bubble.

I was an ASIC Engineer thru the 80's an 90's. In the late 90's Intel approach me about employment. Their salary offer was half of what I making at the time. I told them no and why and they're response was "but we're Intel."

14nm: *exists*

Intel: “I can milk you”

I never stop getting amazed how many incredible, talented people has YouTube enabled to emerge, on their own. Look at the quality on this video! 20 years ago you'd only get this on TV... maybe. You'd have to pitch the show to some producer, and jump through all the hoops. Now you just create a video and the world decides, nobody is holding you back.

My father was a young engineer with IBM in the 1950’s when he was recruited by Shockley to join his venture in California. My father declined Shockley’s offer and stayed with IBM. I think he made the right decision.

Sometimes I'm just amazed at the fact that content like this is free. Thank you, ColdFusion.

Edit: It's honestly hilarious how butthurt so many people are by simple words. You must have a great life 🤣

At the very beginning, and throughout this video, they confuse a "CPU" with "a CPU on a chip". The term CPU has been around since the 50s. It just means "central processing unit". All computers have them. Intel's big innovation was to put an entire CPU on a chip.

I can recall that the original IRON-MAN comics always bragged that Stark's armor was powered by transistors.

7:15 AMD stands for “Advanced Micro Devices”

[Snipstryker]

Everyone: You can't get blood from a stone
Intel: But we can squeeze the blood from 14nm

This is very reminiscent of a documentary called “something ventured” one of my all time favs, can’t wait for part 2!!🥂

CPU engineers get to say they literally engineer logic for a living

[ricardorbarron]

I worked at Intel, from 1978-80 and stood in line behind Ted Hoff, at a scrap pc board sale that the company held for engineers and technicians to get rid of the "dog" boards. (Broken). He was in line in front of me and talking to a younger engineer, whose posture told me he held Ted in high regard. So I consciously took a mental photo of his face and name. A few years ago I saw his face in a web page. That's him, I thought. It was a link to an obituary. I remembered his name too, so I read the article and it said that he was the creator of the first microprocessor. My gut told me that I was standing in front of greatness and it was wonderful to finally learn who he was. I was a test and repair technician working on their microprocessor development system. I fixed the boards I bought. 🙂

Fun Fact: Pat Gelsinger was Intel’s first CTO. There is some hope that a man like him is the right person to bring Intel out of the mess it’s in right now.

Edit: Turns out he’s not *the* first. Correction’s in the replies

I watch MANY channels here on YouTube across MANY different topics, but I gotta hand it to you, you are without a doubt one of the BEST content providers I’ve ever come across. Your research is impeccable; your topics are unique & highly relevant; your editing, graphics & narration is spot on and your content output surprisingly frequent & consistent. I can’t say just how much I value and appreciate all the effort you put in for the benefit of us viewers. Cheers my friend!
