GPU’s are a family business it would seem.

Su’s mother and Nvidia co-founder and former CEO Jensen Huang are first cousins. Su’s maternal grandfather is the eldest brother of Huang’s mother.

    I tell people all the time, feudalism never really went away, it just became capitalism. Folks try to argue and I’m like “so did you or anyone you know pay any rent to a landlord lately? Interesting word, lord.”

      Eh. There’s a real difference between an intergenerational perpetual land endowment and a couple of cousins who got rich in the same high growth industry at the same time.

      Capitalism killed feudalism, often in the literal sense. A bunch of the folks dropping guillotine blades on French nobles’ heads were members of the bourgeois.

      Not a defense of Capitalism here, but that’s a bit off base from what the concepts are.

      What you are talking about is general hierarchy of power with large disparities and concentration of power. Both systems are characterized by them. However, Capitalism by definition rejects the fundamental rules that make up Feudal systems.
