“Ada Lovelace lived a tempestuous life”
Me: Especially when she met the Doctor and helped save the world from the Master.
Wich Episode on Doctor Who ( i hope) do you mean? Sounds great .
AAAH, YES (omg, sorry for screaming but that was exactly what I was thinking😹) I loved the episode so muuch
OMG when I saw the title of this video I was like... "Lady! Apparating LADY! (every time...)"
@@lisasmile4025 it's the latest ep and it's called "Spyfall part 2" but it's a two parter
@@joodle_doodle Thanks, now I have something to look forward to.
And the hero that we all know and love who made the first computer-like machine, shortening WW2 by at least 2 years saving thousands of lives, was gay
Alan Turing 🙌
And massively shortened WW2 !
And sadly, but not surprisingly, killed himself after being punished for being gay.
I guess fuck the discoveries that literally saved lives (WW2...) They had to focus in the part were he loved men...
You should definitely do an episode on Turing. And Steven Hawking.
@@stephaniehight2771 And Rear Admiral Grace Hopper!
Whenever a date of mine does something problematic, I sincerely hope that I hear Jessica's voice in my head saying "Red flag!" repeatedly until I remedy the situation.
I would LOVE an explainer on the British Peerage system!
Firefly 24601 yes, please
Me too, yes please!
TLDR Pay alot to the PM
Yes please!
Ditto!
"her christian duty to support him and improve his behavior" - well if that doesn't sound like a great basis for a marriage
sadly...there are still women that feel obligated to do this...
TehMomo I know. I still just can’t even ... 🤢🤮
I highly recommend "The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage: The (Mostly) True Story of the First Computer" a comic book that begins as the tale of Ada Lovelace's life and work, before spinning off into a pocket universe where Babbage actually finished the Analytical Engine and the two of them used it to solve crime and get into mischeif. Despite the latter half being fictional the tales are based on real events with very interesting footnotes linking it all together. Overall just a really fun way of learning more about Ada and the Difference Engine.
I can't believe you did one of my primary computing heroes! I had no idea she was chronically ill.
Twas the Master's fault
When photo of Alan Turing popped out I nearly started to cry. I adore his work and literally no one knows about his work in my country (Its shame). Thank you for sharing information about these interesting people.
My daughter Ada, named after Lovelace, just turned one! She's a fascinating historical figure. Thanks for doing a video on her.
Wow! Same!
that sounded like you were saying your daughter is a fascinating historical figure :)))
She was in the most recent episode of Doctor Who
Great timing then!
I'm from where her and lord Byron are buried and it's so annoying to see her forgotten, it's known as "lord byron's resting place" and we have a few signs saying this but no mention of Ada ☹️
Having just watched Spyfall: Part 2, can definitely can agree you on tempestuous life. But at least The Doctor kept life interesting 😂😏.
Alan Turing’s story was heartbreaking so I am looking forward to your video on him.
I would love to hear a profile on Oscar Wilde, he has totally fascinated me for so long!
There are some really good documentaries on his life and the attitudes of the times.
+
You forgot the part about when she helped the doctor to defeat the master 😜💕
Hi! I love your videos, and ones about historical figures are a special treat! If you take suggestions, may I propose you do a video about Croatian painter Nasta Rojc? She was an out lesbian in the early 20th century, an avant-garde thinker, and painted a portrait of herself in drag nine years before Romaine Brooks painted hers. Unfortunately, a pointed effort was made to erase her from history precisely because she was a lesbian, and still she is never mentioned in art history classes, even though she was a crucial figure in Croatian modern art.
There is also a programming language called Ada which is named in her honour.
As a Web Developer with a degree in Math and a love for poetry and metaphysics, I think this is my favorite historical video you've made!!! Ada Lovelace is officially one of my favorite people in history, she sounds like a kindred spirit to my own :)
Perfect timing! I've been meaning to Google her ever since Doctor Who last week 😂
Greetings from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 I just know about Ada from the new episode of Doctor Who and I think she is an amazing person who accomplished a lot. Thank you for this video that I could know more about her❤️
Please do a historical profile of Mary Shelley. The mother of science fiction.
Mary Shelly is fascinating, and a feminist as well. But I don't know if a woman who steals another's husband is Jessica's brand.
@@stephaniehight2771 none of the people who she's talked about have been perfectly moral people. No one is. Everyone does things that are in that moral grey area and everyone makes mistakes. She's talked about Alexander Graham Bell who is a complete garbage human, by comparison Mary Shelley is a saint.
@Meagan Wallwork You are correct! Full support here for a Mary Shelly bio, or better yet, a double featuring her mother, Mary Wollstonecraft as well.
@@stephaniehight2771 I love them both equally, I feel like her mother is often overlooked but also an incredibly talented woman
Oh! Please, make a video explaining more about the English peerage! I don’t find it so confusing as German aristocracy, but it will be definitely a great video since it's such a complex matter and your didactics are so ”simple” and funny. In the end, I just wanted to say how much I love your channel!
Also PLEASE make a historical profile on Alan Turing as far as you could! I love him so much! It will be delightful to see a video about him on your channel ☺️
Her mom didn't want her to be lusty like Lord Byron (Ada's dad) and was kept away from the "arts". At least that's what we were taught.
Just discovered this awesome historical woman through a doctor who ep, can't wait to learn more. Thank you for your amazing insight Jess keep up your amazing work, good luck in this new year, love to the family.
As soon as she said her name was Ada, I was "Ada Lovelace, well it's about bloody time" lol
I was unaware, until I saw this video, that the 'bouts of paralysis' that Ada talked about in Doctor Who was an actual problem the historical Ada suffered from.
Alan Turing seems like a good historical figures follow-up to this!
I don't know why, I burst into tears at the thing about her being buried at her request next to the father she never knew. And then felt ridiculous. It was the whole thing and a kind of surge of empathy for her and the pointless tragedies that weren't entirely pointless or without reason. But I'm sure her life is not the only one entitled to be felt for as tragic, by a long long stretch. Others needs ignored right now of course. But yes, the emotion of longing to reconcile connection with people where relationship was so important but fraught is sympathetic.
she was on a episode of Doctor Who which was on Sunday on BBC one ! 😇👩🏻💻
I love the music in this video.
I’m looking forward to your work on Alan Turing.
I love learning about Ada, she’s one of my favourite people through out history. In one of my maths teacher’s classroom, we had a mural of Ada, and that very same teacher named his daughter after her, which I think is just lovely.
I love all these historical profiles you're doing!
And yes, maybe a rough rundown of how British Aristocracy worked would be helpful! :D
Katzenschaf def need some kind of org chart to follow along with
I'm such a big fan of Ada I'm a female computer programmer myself
This was great! I knew bits and pieces of this, but it's delightful to hear it all laid out.
Also, 1) YAY for an Alan Turing profile! and 2) OMG, yes, pleeeeeeaaaaaase to an explanatory vid on the British aristocracy. Your very clear way of laying out a topic would be invaluable there!
Love Ada Lovelace! She is so awesome and inspiring. I get so frustrated that people try to discount her intelligence. Side note, Byron was also bisexual.
Regine Gilbert is my friend! She is amazing, a genius, and has the biggest heart.
Alan Turing
Would be nice to do a historical profile on him.
love this, just watched her character on Doctor Who!
A video on aristocratic titles could be very interesting.
So would one on Turing.
I am writing a long school paper on Alan Turing (I need to to finish school) and your explanations are actually incredible! I adore history and learning about important people 🙌
Perhaps you have already done this, but I recommend you watch "The Imitation Game" and play "Turochamp".
I love these videos!
Growing up as an American with an Anglophile teacher who majored in history as a father I couldn’t stand anything like this. And now I can’t get enough of it. Turns out I’m a visual learner and millennial that wants things fast and quick
Ah yes Lord Byron, quite possibly the world's most problematic bisexual.
Thanks Jessica ❤️ I have an interview with Amazon today (for software engineering) and this is making me more confident and inspired :)
I wish you the best of luck !
Much luck and many blessings for a positive outcome Nicole!! ♥
I hope it went well for you.
Please update us on how it went!
OMG!! I love this video. I work as a programmer and have a degree in mathematics. I only learned about Ada Lovelace AFTER earning my degree and working as a programmer for a year. I’m so glad you have made a video about her. Especially since the field really lacks inclusion
I already know a lot of this, but this video is already worth it for 'Princess of Parallelograms'.
I made project about Ada Lovelace in 9 grade at school, love her very much
I will finish school this year and since 13 i want to be a programmer. She inspire me a lot
When i saw her (haha not real Ada...) in Doctor Who and she sad "i'm Ada and this world in my head" i understoond this is Ada Lovelace
I can talk hours about her and sometimes think if i have daughter i will named her after Ada
Thank you for video
I first came across this name[Ada Lovelace] while I was studying discrete math in my first semester in uni but that's all I knew about her lol.Thanks to this video I can now learn a lil something about her
A video explaining british peerage would be great!
Ada Lovelace has been a hero of mine for YEARS. Thank you for this video :)
I love your historical profile series! Welcome back!
I had heard of Ada Lovelace and knew she did something with early computer programming, but I didn't know anything else about here, really. That's so amazing! She had such a cool life. Thank you for sharing her story so that more people can learn about this awesome, groundbreaking woman.
Looking forward to that Alan Turing video so much now!
Ada Lovelace and Alan Turing (along with Charles Babbage) were important figures in the earliest classes I took in uni (history of tech: I have a STEM-related degree and am literally a computer programmer. Ada - the programming language - is one of the first I used to make stuff. It's been, wow...12 years since I attempted to create the worst calculator ever, in her honour).
Please make a video explaining the British/English peerage, cos it's a confusing as Great Britain vs United Kingdom and I've never understood it.
How about Dr. Joanne Simpson? She was the first woman to get a PhD in atmospheric sciences.
Love today's headpiece! Excited to be here quick
I’ve been saying this for a while, but I’ll try again.
You should do a Historical Profile on Rosemary Kennedy
I've been reading up on her after a recent visit to Athens, where Lord Byron was mentioned several times in the National Historical Museum because of his exploits in the Greek Independence struggle. His story with all the women and children certainly makes for some interesting reading. And you're definitely right to call him a terrible father. Ada is a fascinating woman.
Did you watch the recent Doctor Who episode with Ada in it?! IT WAS SO COOL THAT SHE WAS IN IT!!!!!
i wonder if the timing was coincidental or jessica planned it :P
@@seeduboyou I would assume that it was planned, or that's what gave her the idea
Ada lovelace is a true inspiration to me as a young programmer and woman as the programming world can be sexist and prejudiced, she reminds me women can do it!
Yes, Ada Lovelace, my heroine!! Thank you for this video ❤
Thank you for the brilliantly researched video! My husband and I named our daughter after Ada Lovelace - Ada is her second name. Didn't know the last bit about bloodletting - thank god for modern medicine!
Please do a profile on Claude Cahun someday!
What a great video so much to think about computers that early mindblowing 🤯
I would love a video about why how titles in England work sounds fun 😊
Thx for the learnding made the flu more easy to get along with 🤧😊😘
As a student of computer science I really appreciated this. I learnt about her in one of my lectures and I was fascinated by her, especially because there are only 15% female students in CS at my university.
great timing after that doctor who ep haha! a truly inspirational woman xxx
I knew about Ada Lovelace, first computer programmer, but I didn't know Lord Byron was her father. Your history vids are so informative. Keep up the good work.
This brought me to tears. My partner and I were going to name our daughter Ada Lovelace [our last name] instead we have two sons, named after rock stars. (It's okay, I'm glad to have them too!) Thanks for this video, it's awesome!
Oh, Ada, one of my heroes since childhood!!!
Didn't know much about Ada Lovelace, so this video was really educational - and fun. Her ideas of mixing logics and language, science and poetry is truly beautiful and amazing
This is so interesting!
But i’d argue the first “computer” was the Jacquard loom designed/developed around 1804/5 (based on designs from the early to mid 1700s by other frenchman) that used binary punch cards that told the loom to switch out threads and change patterns would inspire the binary coding used for computing! I tend to view this as more of a “base” for computers. And then I would place Ada’s work right after. Ada’s work really speeding up the development of computers, making the path to what computers would be (able to use math formulas, theories, etc.) in the future!
Great video Jessica! Your videos continue to broaden my mind and inspire me. 😁
As a mathematician, I already knew this one, but so glad you included her. 😊
ada lovelace is one of my favorite topics, but this presentation compels my mentioning the sadness felt on hearing your personal physical hardships. Bless you and your perpetual smile though all the muck that life throws your way. color me subscribed.
Loved the vid! Thanks!
Your knowledge is awesome and yes, aristocracy with the different titles is complicated. It would be great if you made a video on that topic.
Thanks for introducing such amazing forgotten personalities. I love such "dreamers" who set up cornerstones to later important discoveries and inventions.
I looove these historical profiles! They're so great. And, yes, a breakdown on British nobility would be great, lol.
I love your historical videos!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I like your story telling technique perfect and comical
I love this series. Thank you for doing them!
Love your historical videos! Thanks, very interesting!!
I love your videos so much!! Seeing them always lights up my day! You look beautiful as always! Hope you, Claud and the doggies are well
THIS WAS SO GOOD 💕
Always love these historical profiles and the little I know of Ada Lovelace is already really interesting! Glad to learn more
Amazing!!
OMG I LOVED THIS! I'm a female Software Engineer so obviously Ada is a role model for me and this was a great portrait of her! Well done Jessica!
grats on getting a sponcer and awsome vid as per usual .
I love that you are covering Ada Lovelace, shes such an inspiration to me!
Love this video 😊
Fabulous video! Ada Lovelace is one of my favourite historical figures-mostly for to purpose of using her example, among others, in arguments with sexists about women's math skills-but I had no idea about either her suffering chronic illness or her gambling syndicate, which I have to find out more about because that's fantastic. XD Lovely video, excellent work
Awesome job as usual Jessica! Such a good historical profile.
Love the video.❤👍🏽
As a disabled person that wasn't born with my disabilities. I am in aww by how positive you always seem. I mean to say, I go out of my way to be enjoyable company for most people around me. But you are a ray of sunshine in every video I have seen you in. You are a positive influence on the world.
Sounds like we might need a video on that cousin as well :0
Dear god, yessss, please make a video explaining the levels and layers and terms of the British royals. I am a fascinated and confused yank.
I do love these videos - they're like watching a mini documentary!
In 30+ years of software development, I've seen women just straight up drop fever: crisp code, impeccable designs. They like coding. They just don't want to put up with the dumb nonsense that used to go on / still goes on with a lot of team's dynamics. If they aren't key players on your teams, it's your teams, not women in code. Big cheer for doing a clip on Ada. Thoroughly legendary.
consider Patricia Highsmith, female novelist famous for the Tom Ripley series and the book Strangers on a Train. also one of the first female comic book writers, who penned the once famous Black Terror, The Destroyer, and Captain Midnight. he most recognized work today is The Price of Salt, later made into the film Carol 2015. Warning...she was verbally critical of Black people and Asians.
I am loving Jessica's Historical profiles so much. I have learnt a lot I didn't know. I would like Jessica to do a profile on Vita Sackville-West. She fell in love with Virginia Woolf and had affairs with women, although married to Harold Nicholson for security. She also was a great garden designer and left everything to the National trust. I think she made the gardens around Sissinghurst castle. That's as much as I know but I think there is a lot more to learn and I think Jessica can make a super profile of her. I would love to see one. xxxx
Brilliant video
I love your style, it's so beautiful. And the content is great
I’m an analyst and love sharing her story as the mother of analytics. My pup is named after her and i wish she were more well known.
I'd love a profile on Louisa May Alcott! (From what I understand) she had major health issues after being administered mercury to save her life, that left her in pain and somewhat paralyzed. (I think something like that?) I love her books, read biographies, been to her grave, and toured her home in Massachusetts. As someone with chronic illness and an interest in writing I would love to know more about her later life!!
