Re:Fairchild, Fairchildren, and the Family Tree of Silicon V... by omarhaneef on Thursday January 16, 2020 @07:05AM (#22063732)
This is too broad a brush.

Giving Fairchild credit for Google (because, I suppose, one of the founders of Kleiner Perkins worked there) is like giving DE Shaw credit for Amazon.

(Actually, I would argue the DE Shaw - Amazon case is stronger!)

I wish they would draw a more direct tree. People who directly founded companies. Is it Intel, Sequoia and Kleiner?
