Tech Trivia: AMD's Lisa Su and NVIDIA's Jen-Hsun Huang are relatives

Not a lot of news to post today but I did come across an interesting piece of tech trivia. BabelTechReview translated Chinese-language news that reveals that AMD CEO Lisa Su and NVIDIA co-founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang are relatives. To be more specific, Su's grandfather is Huang's uncle.

IT IS WORTH MENTIONING THAT ANOTHER TAIWANESE SEMICONDUCTOR ELITE, NVIDIA FOUNDER HUANG RENXUN (JENSEN HUANG) ALSO CAME FROM TAINAN, AND HAS A RELATIVE RELATIONSHIP WITH SU ZIFENG (LISA SU). SU ZIFENG’S GRANDFATHER AND HUANG RENXUN’S MOTHER ARE BROTHERS AND SISTERS

It's sometimes pretty astonishing how small the world really is.
