TIL: Today I Learned...

TIL - Gordon Moore & Robert Noyce were two of the pioneers of the semiconductor & integrated circuitry industry. They basically built 'Silicon Valley'. When it came time to name their company, they were initially going to call it 'Moore Noyce'. However they felt the name sounded too much like 'More Noise', so they scrapped it and their company is known today as the INTEL Corporation. The name was derived from INTegrated ELectronics.
