We routinely block nations where we have no customers from some assets, because why would they be there other than doorknob rattling hoping for some security issue. "No customers" is now racism? If we block people from the UK be

Well, yes, there was a product that never worked, and conviction + prison sentencing for fraud, and the bankruptcy, and out of work workers and shafted suppliers...but we shouldn't let that detract from the positive!

Faggin started the 4004 in '69 and Hoff was pushing off the bat for it to be more than a calculator chip so it could be used as a general purpose processor. So they might not have specifically been 'dreaming of controlling a toast

But when people tell me “it’s so much more efficient if you never have to take your hands off the keyboard”, I don’t buy that. When caught out, try denial and sanctimony. Common tactic.

DMR was remarkably kind, helpful and accessible. As an undergrad in the mid 80s I read about 'the first' port of Unix (v6) to something other than a PDP-11, the Interdata 8/32. On a whim, I sent an email to dmr@research.att
