Blazing a literal trail while talking about a trailblazer is genius
not really, since "trailblazing" is mapping uncharted lands. I mean I know, but still
I don't know if it's by design by her but some of her videos are replete with double entendres.
@@yousarrname3051
Could be laying out a trail as well but nothing else in english could have worked for the pun
not to be blunt here, but how was she blazing?
As a CS student who likes exploring outdoor, I love the concept of this video
Same and I thought I was the only one who likes the outside as well
BREAKING: CS major reveals they WILLINGLY go OUTSIDE
Impossible.
If i ever get a terminal disease, please let it be Tibees to break the news to me. I don't think I'd get upset with that sweet voice
tibees manages to describe existential crises in a very sweet and calm voice.
Honestly, there is such a thing as having too soft a voice. I find I have to crank the volume excessively high just to make out what she is saying.
@@sevenpenceLOLZ
It comes in through my ears as a calm, sultry voice.. then my inner monologue translates the existential nightmare into panicked screaming
Amazing view over that valley, NZ's landscapes are freaking magical.
Of course it's magical with all the dwarves, elves and hobbits. 😃
And deadly hoho
Integration while trekking- that is quite me!
Also, Marie Curie and Ada Lovelace are my inspiration.
Perhaps each generation of scholars, at any level, is blessed by having better tools for learning but as with all improvement things never get easier because that which must be achieved (learned) also increases. I stagger to think how difficult learning via letter must be and maybe in a hundred years scholars will stagger to think how difficult it was to learn in the 20th and 21st centuries.
Wonderful NZ ! My favourite landscape in the world of countries I have visited. Like a more accessible Switzerland with more variety.
There are so many captivating things happening in this video. An amazing intellectual, great revelation of historic figures, amazing scenery, hiking, mathematical equations, excellent information, and a most soothing vocal cadence.
Thanks for your content, T!❤
What a wonderful "article" about Ada Lovelace. She was definitely a woman ahead of her time. And also, how wonderful that all these learned and historically significant male mathematicians took her and her work seriously. Thanks for a great trip down history's lane.
As a software developer since the late 80's, Lovelace has always been close to my heart. To perceive a problem, and find a solution to it, and then develop upon it, it's an approach that speaks to me. No, I don't make websites, I'm more involved in low-level stuff on the processor level, and translating runtime things to bridge programming languages. The mathematics with its roots in Turing (and Ada, at least in terms of implementation) is something that makes my blood flow. Anyway, I named one of my cats after Ada Lovelace, Ada. My other cat is named Curie after Marie Curie, but that's only because Cecilia (Payne Gaposchkin) didn't really translate well in cat-ish, sounding very hissy and hostile. There's so many great women historically, and I find them utterly uncelebrated.
My computers are named Ada, Margaret, and Hypatia.
Fun Fact: Marie Curie was the first person ever to win TWO Nobel Prizes - one for physics in 1903, the other for chemistry in 1911 for her work on radioactivity.
I also have a cat named Marie Curie
Why? As a software developer? She never had any part in software, just translation work and did propose using loom design cards as a means of entering data - that's it. Everything else is made up in the name of female empowerment, like so many things since the 90s.
Grace or Hopper might be another good option for a cat name. :)
Few people know that Ada Lovelace was Lord Byron's daughter. That Lord George Gordon Byron :)
Interesting they both died aged 36 years.
Ada's Bernoulli Numbers program was the first published piece of software. Babbage had obviously already written a few programs (though not as complex) while designing the Analytical Engine and we can now see his notebooks, but it is fair to say Ada started the Open Source movement.
You're kidding, right?
its good to walk, the spine doesnt have circulation all the way to the core so depends on the pumping action when we walk to give it circulation. Be kind to your back and walk.
Ada mentioned the idea that computers might be used to make music - it would be quite something for someone over 100 hundred years ago such as her to time travel to now and observe (and hear!) audio synthesis, recordings, and generative AI to make music!
THANKS FOR YOU BEAUTIFUL VIDEO TIBEES!!🙏🙏😊👍😊
Beautiful mountains 🗻 , clear water and blue skies ☁.
I want it.
Casually returns after two months talking about the origins of computer science from the top of a mountain
Great video! Walking through the mountains and going through math must be a wonderful experience
So glad we have those letters of correspondence. A glimpse into the past of these incredible mathematicians is so rewarding to hear about. Great video
OMG That is a beautiful place. I have added it to my bucket list.
Beautiful video Tibees. A lovely voice describing math with a beautiful background. 🙂
I work in a computer store and there is a little computer museum and its nice learning more about the first software engineer. Cool video.
She had nothing to do with software engineering.
I really enjoy this video format! It reminds me of how I like to take an afternoon off from software development to go hiking and reflect. It's a wonderful way to recharge.
Welcome Back!!! Much love and respect from the USA!!!
I took a course on complex number theory in college as an undergrad. It was definitely an interesting course and has some interesting use cases in science and engineering.
Wow! This is what you call content. I recently found your channel and I'm in love with your content and your personality. Also, explaining this while trekking is the coolest idea ever! Your voice is so soothing and the video editing is awesome!
A beautiful hike, and mathematics! You are living my dream!
Amazing story and great trail. Thank you.
A new genre of videos is born... Great hiking and thoughtful science! Plus that relaxing asmr-ish voice (on purpose?) And of course, pretty on the eyes (but this is last in the list, a bonus)
So glad to see a new video :DD
I can't believe you tricked me into watching a calculus video. See, this is how you get a computer science student to pay attention to calculus.
ada’s rush to get to the good stuff is something i am going through as well as a middle schooler. so to solve this problem of mine i downloaded khan academy, and swore that i would complete all the math courses in order. (like first early maths-kindergarten-1st grade…) so by the time i DO get to the good stuff, i’d be prepared.
there is something in math that i love so much about it. and i wanna explore more of it. i just *feel* that there is more to know. i hope to achieve my milestone one day.
I think that she’s one of the most interesting personalities in the history of math!
Fascinating and intriguing, as well as educational, very informative
Great view of a New Zealand landscape! Each of mountains and rivers can be represented with mathematical functions.
yes!!! what an incredible video idea i feel so relaxed AND i've learned a lot! thank you :)
So beautiful!! Your explanation, you, the scenery, your content. Ahh! Love to you, Tibees!!
Beautiful nature!
Wow Tibees thank you, this is both informative and quite wonderful 😊
Thank you so much for valuable contents
Serendipitous for me in the extreme! I'm just starting Walter Isaacson's best seller, The Innovators. Chapter 1 is on Ada and Babbage! Thank you. I'm very excited to read this book. I just finished his Code Breaker about Jennifer Doudna and gene splicing. He must have a great editor because every sentence was worth reading.
Lovely to see you back home :)
What a beautiful video. Lovely presentation! Bravo! ❤❤❤❤
Cutest and calmest voice
That was really interesting. Thank you 😊
Thank you for such a Brilliant video :) I found this to be the motivation I needed to push through finals !
thank you for the math history!
This is lovely ❤
Mount Cook looks gorgeous and I'm looking forward to learning more about Ada Lovelace :)
Thank you 👍❤️
What a beautiful place!
It was really nice seeing you on Jet Lag recently!
Thanks that was really nice.
I could watch your vids and listen to your dulcet voice all day! Oh, and Ada Lovelace is awesome also! Love your detailed explanations.
how beautiful, Tibees!
I ❤this video. Will go back to the math when I’m done with unit testing.
She was a real genius and the first computer programmer. Makes you wonder how far developed the world of today would be if men and misogyny didn’t hinder women and girls from higher education for thousands of years.
Right
Misogynists are the real problem.
Men ☕🤡☕
Sooo interesting!! Thanks!
Love to see her learning path. We usualy only see the end resuls. But its much more interesting to learn how someone struggled to learn and see its not always a straight path. Just like walking. 😅
Linda Lovelace was mentioned in an episode of QI with Stephen Fry, where they talked about the first computer program, written on “punchcards” for looms. Apparently the new technology was too much for French textile weavers, and fearing loss of livelihood, they threw their wooden shoes into the looms to damage/destroy them. The shoes are called sabots… and this is where the word “sabotage” originated. The more you know.
we love you toby tibees
Your voice is divine
The math is all over my head, but I love the beautiful scenery.
Great video.
Ada Lovelace was an incredible mind! Thank you for sharing her story with us. It would take me forever to finish hiking the trail you were on. I'd have to stop continuously to gaze in wonder of that incredible landscape! Thank you for sharing your beautiful country with us.
You're my new favourite youtuber
One of the many brilliant minds taken from the world far too young.
Got a CS degree from a good university and we didn't once learn of this matriach. What a shame.
excellent Tibee
Thanks
What a nice video! 😀
I paused the video at 4:11, proved the expression in 30 seconds, thought I was a genius, unpaused the video, and realised I wasn't so smart after all. I envy Ada Lovelace so much, as I'm always yearning for the deepest secrets that maths, logic, and physics have to offer, but still can't understand elementary stuff like Gram-Schmidt orthogonalisation or integration by parts.
always interesting history
What Majestic views. thanks for the story of Ada Lovelace. I am going to reward you with a special women and a quote from her. "Life is an unfoldment, and the further we travel the more truth we can comprehend. To understand the things that are at our door is the best preparation for understanding those that lie beyond" (Hypatia of Alexandria. Mathematician, Astronomy, Philosophy) there is a cool movie made about Hypatia it's called Agora played by Rachel Weisz.
i like your voice
Very calming and peaceful. Thank you.
Good morning 🌞 ❤
Just reminded of De Morgan's therum, which lions have never used.
I would have blasted my ankle a dozen times if I tried to talk and walk like this on a trail 😂
ur da BEST
Nice
Amezing
Is this New Zealand? Wow it's very pretty! Interesting talk.
It's really no mystery how Ada developed her interest in maths. Her mother Anne Isabella Noel Byron had an life long interest in the subject--Lord Byron disparaged her as "the Princess of the Parallelogram") Indeed during the Regency period maths was consider a suitable subject for young ladies. It was thought to order the mind
Zen proverb, do one thing at one time. While you hike enjoy hiking and when you study then enjoy studying. By the way, this is not rule and depends on individual.
Im hypnotized 😂❤🎉 I wish I could hold a conversation with you but I would need to study 😂😢
Hi Toby, I’m a big Gordon Lord Byron poetry fan.
I can't imagine learning Calculus by mail! Though I guess it's not that different from our modern asynchronous online courses.
Always great channel- down and dirty
Ah New Zealand how I miss thee...
It is rumoured that ada lovelace saw a dung beetle carrying a portion of dung to it's home, observed it's handling of the portion and derived the concept of algorithm and programming.
4:17 For that equation, some use ratio and proportions.
ok this is going under my playlist called "mind edibles"
my mind would need some of these edibles.
1:24 You know she told him if he was doing his job, she wouldn't have had to waste her time finding and reporting this bug.
Analytical Engine 'harumph harumph'! It'll never catch on, or I'll eat my stove pipe hat!
beautiful video as always.
Its so nice to learn about these name, after QI dropping their names but not really telling a whole lot about them. (except for talking about a pet lobster)
I think in the future all explanations of integrals should be presented on a rock 🪨 in a national park 🏞️
Ada's mother encouraged her interest in math in part because it was the opposite of the interests of Ada's absent father, the poet Lord Byron.
Your voice is so sweet you are like the Luna Lovegood of math and physics
Another reason to move to New Zealand.
Thank you soo much for sharing this..
