Who is Richard Feynman referring to in the book "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman" chapter "Alfred Nobel's Other Mistake" when he talks about "A friend of mine who's a rich man - he invented some kind of simple digital switch"? #72
A friend of mine who's a rich man - he invented some kind of simple digital switch - tells me about these people who contribute money to make prizes or give lectures: "You always look at them carefully to find out what crookery they're trying to absolve their conscience of."
This feels like the type of thing that Robert Noyce would have said given his experiences with William Shockley, but I can't find any link between Richard and Robert.
