published in the trade journal Electronics predicted the pace of miniaturization in computer chips and anticipated the development of home computers, smart wristwatches, automatic controls for cars and other inventions as electronic components etched on squares of silicon become smaller, faster and cheaper.
, as his prediction became known, proved a remarkably accurate observation about how quickly engineers would create advances in digital technology that have led to countless fixtures of modern life.
Brilliant technologist, leader, and philanthropist - RIP Dr. Moore. Fun Fact: 'Where Fairchild once sold transistors for as much as $150 each, a typical Intel microprocessor in 2019 contained 5 billion of them—each costing $0.0000001, or a penny per 100,000 transistors.'
Moore's Law: The number of transistors on a microchip doubles every 18 mos. We can expect the speed & capability of our computers to increase every two years because of this, yet pay less for them. The law is attributed to Gordon Moore, the co-founder and former CEO of Intel.
Intel 4004 changed the World.
Respect. Thanks!
😪
RIPGordonMoore mourning the loss of a great tech visionary who forever changed the way we interact with the world. Rest in peace🌹
Meanwhile billions of counterfeit shares in our markets. Innovative companies are being destroyed by 'smart money'. And when they get caught ? U3 Halt by the regulator to protect counterfeiters. $MMTLP Destroying our economy treasonous! FINRA ReleaseTheBlueSheetsForMMTLP
Thank you, Mr. Moore!
RIPGordonMoore - so much of the technology human beings rely on to function day-to-day extends from the work of this man! semiconductors chips

Died before his time…😔
May his soul Rest In Peace🥹
