When Hackers Met Hippies: The Unlikely Birth of Silicon Valley
In 1968, a Stanford researcher named Doug Engelbart did something that seemed impossible-he made a computer talk back. Not literally, but close enough. At a time when computers were room-sized behemoths that processed punch cards, Engelbart stood before a thousand stunned engineers and demonstrated something that looked like science fiction: a device with a screen, a keyboard, and a strange wooden block he called a "mouse." For ninety minutes, he showed off hypertext, videoconferencing, and collaborative editing-technologies we now use without thinking. The audience sat in disbelief. What made this "Mother of All Demos" revolutionary wasn't just the gadgets-it was the philosophy. Engelbart believed computers shouldn't just calculate; they should amplify human thinking. This vision would ripple through Silicon Valley for decades, transforming a sleepy agricultural region into the innovation capital of the world. Through oral histories from over 200 tech pioneers, we witness how this transformation happened-not through corporate planning but through passionate misfits who genuinely believed technology could change everything.
