"Everything that has occurred in Silicon Valley in the last couple of
decades also occurred in the 1850s. Anyone who thinks that wild-ass high
tech venture capitalism is a late-20th-century California phenomenon needs
to read about the maniacs who built the first transatlantic cable projects.
The only things that have changed since then are that the stakes have gotten
smaller, the process more bureaucratized, and the personalities less
interesting."

Neal Stephenson " Mother Earth, Mother Board" 1996 for Wired
