The fact that the human race has been able to extract raw elements from the earth and discover the way to transform them create a machine like a computer will never fail to amaze me
It’s pretty much modern day alchemy
Same feelings bro. The way our creation has evolved makes it even more amazing.

Inventing the first RAM chip must've made for some nice memories.
Log out and get out.
Hey Bobby
Ngl, this made me exhale
Albeit more randomly accessed
I’m sure this invention led to some much bigger gigs
Mad respect to Hilda.
ROLF!!!
Hilda was next level. She'd have decked you if you asked about DDR though.
😂
Amen
His alter ego
Breaking news: local madmen make metal think
Thing?
@@mdlatham7 think because it's a computer...I think lol
Mark Latham no
'Are they Soviets? No.. Just mental'
and they weren't even from florida
this just reminds me of a warm day during class in high school an unair-conditioned room, listening to the teacher drone and staring sleepily out the window but not missing a word. I loved those classes, and I loved those droning teachers because their voices calmed me and it felt like I could relax and learn at the same time
Well put!
Great imagery, reminds me of highs school
ugh you suck
RespekonmaName classy
felix ugh
The way he speaks with such calmness and certainty and how he doesn't stumble upon his words, you can really tell this man is intelligent.
you should see Elon Musk talk.
Social skills dont correlate to intelligence.
Both statements are true
@@Jourmand1r having proper diction has nothing to do with "social skills" nor is what Schweppes lemon was referring to. The person in the video has a deterministic way of thought in which he consciously and orderly choose each word and shared it with the camera verbally. Such a rare trait these days indeed.
Get a greencard fatass
Arc can’t you tell he’s reading off a queue card or something. He’s always looking just above the camera and you can see his eyes going left and right like he’s reading.
My first Computer had 24mb ram. Now it's 8Gb. This was one of the man who made it possible. I thank you good Sir. Also what a nice voice.
Mine had 256K
My first PC was a 386 with 2mb ram. Those were the days.
Of course some folks would laugh at my 256K, because they had Apple IIs or Commodores and such, with 64K or even less. But really the IBM PC was the first serious contender, which wasn't a hobbyist product, so a lot of folks started there. Or, actually, a lot of folks like me started with those first clones. Compaq, Edge, and others started doing clones that were a lot more affordable.
I remember going to the local computer store and buying a book, from IBM, that had all of the original PC BIOS code in it, with documentation. I learned a lot from that, though it was seriously spaghetti code due to the memory limitations. I think that the original PC BIOS was in 8K or something like that?
I got an Edge clone, and really splurged for 256K and TWO 5.5" floppies. Of course back then, there was no 'system drive'. You booted DOS off a floppy and the OS was in memory and never had to go back to disk, so you could pull out the boot disk and use the floppy for application purposes. These days the OS makes enormous and on-going use of the hard drive.
I remember when this first started happening on PCs, in the OS/2 days. It used to really drive me crazy because before that the hard drive never operated unless your program asked it to. So it was a bad thing if it started doing something when you didn't think it should be.
Later on I got a massive 10MB hard drive for it, which was like, I'll never fill this up.
My first PC was a DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) VAXmate... 8mhz 80286, 1mb ram. I played Zork and Hitchhikers' Guide To The Galaxy on it, and I catalogued my baseball cards :D
My current pc has 64gb of ddr4 3200mhz... what am I doing with my life
Sweet! After the zombie apocalypse I'm going to knit me a computer.
Caleb Official The hell they aren’t!

Hilda isn’t real.
"Hey Hilda, what d'ya do at work today?"
"Oh not much, just knitted this weird copper wire thing for the MIT guys, I don't even think they know my last name to be honest..."
Underrated
Without Hilda computers would not exist.
@@zacharygentry3465 That's why I now refer to computers as 'Hildatrons'
My goodness, so people truly not know the difference between men and women? If it wasn't for men there would be no woman technician. Who manufactured the wired? Who told the woman what to do? Who invented the concept? Laid out the plans? Built the facility in which the compupter was built? Who paved the roads on which she walked to get to the facility? And so on and so on. If you were joking about your comment, then okay, but if you truly believe that Hilda would even be able to conceive of a computer without men, then you need a lesson on the difference between men and women.
@@yougetagoldstarIf It was't for women, men would not exist
I was watching the entire vid and forgot it was asmr
Filthy Whale same lol
"At the time, all the computers in the world were hand made. And I think there were approximately 6 computers in the whole world. "
I'm laying on my bed and I count more than 6 computers in this room alone.
how? 2 phones 2 consoles 1 pc and 1 laptop?
@@wabbajocky8235clocks? Thermostats?
@@KaygeeFromNanotrasen who in the world is counting a clock as a computer -.-
@@wabbajocky8235 I mean, technically it is lol
"IBM was making some pretty crude computers..." SAVAGE!
It is hilarious to me that 90% of us (myself included) don't understand the electronic processes of a machine even as elementary as this, and they have progressed extremely exponentially farther than this
@@logenmattsen nothing to be ashamed about. This is the culmination of countless geniuses' life's work
Yep. Modern computing technology is a completely abstract concept to me.
Don't feel bad, there's people who don't understand internal combustion engine or how DNA works. Not everyone can know everything.
Closer to 99% I suspect, and of course myself included.
Extremely exponentially is a lot. Id only pick one next time
But can it run Doom
Probably not, dude. Lmao.
Dave T, Maybe not Doom. But Wolfenstein 3D for sure
What about minesweeper
@@ASMRRetro you both are dumb this kind of computer is way older than 1992
Zayden Gestures r/wooosh
You can tell by his voice and cadence that this man has killed many people.
A stone cold serial killer....His gimmick is explaining the history of computers before bashing your head in with the memory plane
All by hand
He sucks the memory out of their heads
bgrace94 huh?
Lol
I started watching for the unintentional ASMR, but became very interested and intrigued by this story. If IBM took his idea and used it to build their main frames, I hope he received compensation! I live in Mass and did not know that this originated at MIT.
It doesn't work like that. This is how all high technology has been developed. The government pay for it, usually for some reason like to track Russian bombers. The technology is then handed over to IBM. He would have received nothing except the example of the Ferrite Core STore that he took from the lab some 50 years ago.
He most likely just received his regular salary from the university, but I'd say this definitely secured his job for a number of more years.
It's too interesting for me to fall asleep XD
Lol right?!
Likewise
😄😄😄😄😃😃
Then: Can we make this RAM more reliable?
Now: Can we make this RAM more RGB?
The topic might not seem all too intriguing, but I very much enjoyed this guy's voice (Dr. Bernard Widrow), and also found the Computer History quite interesting (considering 60 years ago computers looked like this). Thanks to the user who recommended this piece, and thanks for watching!
Best Unintentional ASMR , man this is cool, it really makes me appreciate my PC, they never could have imagined a graphics card... and here I sit with a 3000$ glass box with rainbow LEDs playing a video game that is basically shooting millions of lines of binary per second, translated thru lines of code, while also reading code for 3d shapes animations sound... I mean it's crazy, my computer chips literally in the blink of an eye do more work than a skyscraper full of people with pen and paper would do in a day... imagine the heat, the speed, a flash of lightning thru the chips and millions of equations done... it's like a damn Lamborghini engine in my pinky nail

@VerdensDejigste thanks! wish I would understand Danish!
Wildboy789789 it is amazing. I wonder what it'll be like 50 years from now
its more than intriguing, its fascinating, thank you
Without this man we wouldnt be even watching this , thank you!
You could say that about any man you're currently watching
coff81 god damnnn
Finally a channel that isn't some girl whispering in my fucking ear. I remember ASMR before it became a thing to make channels about, had to find it the hard way by searching up boring videos like this one. Can't believe ive become an ASMR hipster...
Check out Jason Bowen's painting channel.
Frivolous Fox comes to mind ...
For real. Now it’s just a bunch of thots chewing into their ear shaped binaural mics and going “tingles tingles tingles tingles tingles”
Gucci Malcs oh god I know . Too true. It’s like it’s a hobby all these girls have to just cake themselves in makeup and pout and play with a microphone. Annoying
I used to go to Soothetube blog! I detest intentional ASMR, and I’m a proud ASMR hipster.
Fascinating story and calming voice! Thank you!
the way this guy talks is hypnotic
joe pera’s grandpa.
YES came looking for this comment
How is this not #1 comment
The irony of someone on the 'Edison' channel having their technology stolen is thick.
Corvus Morve...
You mean Edison, the good business man who tried his darnedest to keep the world using DC electricity? That Edison?
I don't understand how anything works. How things get saved to memory. How images and sounds get recorded. It's magic.
Hilda!!! I bet she knew how important her metal knitting was to the future of mankind.
Bet, or she wouldn't have liked it one bit doing 4096 of those.
That's how I fall asleep in class
Same. I had a teacher like this . Relaxed me so much I stpoef staying awak in his class. I failed the class of course
Is this Joe Pera's dad?
Even down to this basic level I still don’t understand how this works
2:35 ugh that cable management
Thank you for all your contributions in science and technology.
I remember seeing this video a really long time ago on the original channel, great ASMR!
Hilda sent me
so *soothing..*
Thank you so much for uploading my video request!!! It seriously deserves to be noticed as an ASMR video.
When you're grandpa is the one you call to help you with your pc instead of the other way around....
That thing looks to be about an inch thick. To get the same amount of RAM that's in the laptop I'm using to type this, you'd need a tower of these things about as high as the orbit of the ISS..
Forgot this was supposed to be ASMR, this is just genuinely an incredibly interesting tech video.
Wow man, the type of the channel's content it's very rare, and incredible the idea.
Modern computers are wonderful machines.
The old ones are mythical.
It's amazing how we as humans can create digital worlds and store digital data using elements and materials. Magnificent minds and creations.
Amazing how something so simple laid down the fundamentals of human technology
"Hey what are you guys doing today?" "Oh we're just going to build some computer chips and microprocessors, no big deal."
What a great story, love this guy's voice and his story telling ability. He should do audiobooks.
This is quite interesting tech history. He does a good job of explaining the technological advances in terms of speed increase and physical size reduction in a comprehensive way.
Okay, internet, you know what we have to do: locate Hilda and honor her memory
Hilda G Carpenter, an MIT technician. She died in 2013. There's a zine dedicated to her memory and work.
It's called Hilda Wove all Those Wires.
Pun intended?
@@eddieafterburner woah
2:24 Left side is the mother of all fire hazards.
2:14 I think he forgot to zip his pants before the Interview
He did that on purpose to allow for random access
I can’t unsee it
GozUnlimited ahahahahhahahah
Lol too funny! Hey! He's so smart thinking of much more important things than trifling matters of zippers.
@@GozUnlimited massively underrated comment
That’s actually really cool and impressive. Quite a lot of talent
It’s nice of Samsung for still using this type of memory in their phones, very retro
Did you know Samsung just made the screens for the iphoneX?
@@msf5681 apple is pathetic let's not even go there
This is so interesting. I love soaking up stuff like this!
“This could take up half a building,, the other half would be air conditioning.” Wow I love this guy XD
Yeah, must have been in Florida or something.
*wats the wecomended amount of dedicated wam*
*for my maycaf sewer*
*dedotated
I love the video, but the music at the start kills it for me. Have to skip the start every time
This is nuts. I want to learn more of this computer.
Her name was Hilda G. Carpenter.
How tough is Hilda? She knits RAMS.
That soft guitar bed is amazing. Some real Neuromancer shit.
I'm trying to fall asleep but this is interesting and shit.
I was in the servo trackwriter business (STW) - this is historical and fascinating
A future chapter in this story is detailed in a great book called The Soul of a New Machine (Kidder). About a decade or so after this, a group of folks from DEC leave to form a company called Data General and they compete with DEC - as well as another rival group within Data General - to capture the 32-bit machine market. Highly recommended read but no mention of Hilda, unfortunately.
Your civilization has entered the modern era @ 7:23
One of the most important figures in the development of computer memory is unknown apart from a first name. I really appreciate this mans testimony and credentials however,I wonder why IBM received the government contract when they weren't really in the same industry?
Half of the building was the computer and the other half was the air conditioning. In other words, they built the computer first and then built the building around it.
I wonder if, when this interview went public, he got into any trouble for stealing that memory plane?
Computers get invented: “We can do really fast math now!”
Me using a computer today: “I hate math homework, gonna play video games instead”
Thanks to this man we can today watch this video on a computer.
This is really nice to listen too, its calming and interesting
Digital!! Haven't heard that name in a long long time!
What a soothing voice he has.
Yes
Some people are fucking amazing. This guy.
im so hyped for quantum computers. if the development of quantum computers progresses at the same rate that "regular" computers did maybe we will have them in like 20-30 years if not sooner.
I hope Hilda was on the patent and got some of the money
I respect this man more than any god.
This was amazing! No tingles or asmr experience, but this topic is very interesting
This is actually a very important story. The US taxpayer PAYS for the research for memory storage research at MIT and then hands it over to IBM. Public subsidy and Private Profit.
I actually found this very interesting and relaxing, some respect to hilda though
His voice kind of sounds like Jim Morrison’s.
If you would like to see a piece of core memory, there is one on display in the Intel Museum, which is located at Intel's headquarters in Santa Clara, California.
You defined our Future !!
Thank you !!
He sheds your brain with his memory plane.
Wow, didn't know President Truman was into computers.
Hilda was a beast!
Nerd idea: Can this be replicated with modern methods to be superfast but high bandwidth for today's stuff?
This man is Google Chrome's favorite person (and/or food source) in the world
That memory got us to the moon.......hand programmed. Crazy sht
Back in those days they had a dedicated " Press any key" button of wood with glow worms to illuminate the keys..
4096 hand made bits... this is awesome
Came for the unintentional ASMR to have in the background while I worked, but ended up just watching the whole thing cause it was so interesting. P.S. Props to Hilda.
Search "Sage System" and watch the computer history video on that. It's a little over an hour long and discusses where the whirlwind computer went with the U.S. military
left to form " dic " oof i laughed a bit im soo immature.
Dec. Digital Equipment Corporation.
The control system for the saturn rocket used this :-) smarter every day has an interesting video about it
As a gamer and computer building hobbyist, I salute you, Dr. Widrow. Semper Fi.
"As a gamer" lmfao
@@juicejxmar5702 Games need RAM. This wonderful man helped make it possible.
This guy is also responsible for the LMS algorithm which is the basis for most Acoustic Echo Cancelers.
Love is like a rambling rose.
Old man would never have thought that people would be watching his video for getting triggers instead of wisdom :)
Govindan Thenkurussi Both.
This is actually really interesting...especially the fact that these were handwoven, and that there were women working on computers even way back in the day. I love technology, both old and new.
Not a chip, and not RAM as such. I mean it *is* random access, but so it a hard disc. It’s really it’s own thing. You can have a power disturbance and the computer would be able to carry on where it left off many times.
The electrostatic memory he talks about earlier is closer to RAM of today in working principles in some ways.
