TL;DR
Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of Intel and a pioneer in the design and manufacture of semiconductor chips, died at the age of 94. Moore famously predicted in 1965 that computer power would double each year for a decade, a forecast he modified in the mid-1970s to every two years, which became known as Moore's Law. He was a central figure in the history of electronics and his innovations helped launch Silicon Valley. Moore's Law became the driving force in computer technology for the next half-century, and Intel led the rapid advance.
