I have! And I am loving your channel!
I adored this content. Anything about old or ancient history, I'm all about it. Surprisingly, I'd never heard of this genius of a Baroness and her sadly short but interesting life. I think it is very interesting that a woman went down in history as the first computer programmer. How cool is that?
Very good video, bar one thing. You are actually showing photos of Florence Nightingale on two occasions, NOT of Ada.
@@TheDemonchy That's what I noticed too.
Ada died at the same age her dad, Lord Byron died. Both a young 36 and drawn out deaths. Byron was basically exiled- he didn't just leave because he wanted to, he was under suspicion for homosexual activity and incest with his half sister, which could get you hung back then. Byron Bios' have better info but this was awesome to see because Ada deserves so much more acknowledgment.
Wasn't his sister her mother?
@@BognaZoneNo, Ada was legitimate. Medora Leigh was Byron's daughter by his half sister Augusta. (Ada was also given Augusta's name.)
Thank you!
To be fair, she is well known in programming circles and has been for a long while. A very influential language was given her name in 1980. There was a minor bug in her note G program but she can certainly be forgiven for this as the hardware was not available to run her program and so had to be simulated in her head.

Thank you for so much for your spendid presentation on the life of Ada Byron. She was not only a remarkable child, able to overcome her father's abandonment and her mother's distant coldness, but also to make a remarkable life and great mathematical discovery that is the foundation of computers today. It's terribly sad and confusing that her mother or her husband, and former close friends especially Babbage and her husband, did not have the grace to attend her funeral. Even to overcome the awful illnesses she suffered is remarkable and to die in agony at only 36 is cruel indeed. Xxxx ❤ ❤
What an incredible woman, goes to show how isolating genius can be. Thank you Ada Lovelace & Babbidge for your marvelous minds.
Babbage.
What a SiLiUiT! Amazingly evil woman.
Relax bro.
Babbage is kind of a jerk in this story, truth be told. In this story.
@@owmacc Thank you.
Thank you for this. Ada Lovelace has always been one of my heroes.
One of ours too ❤️
Her story has always fascinated me, She's one of the great seminal minds of the modern era and hardly anyone knows her name. Thanks for the succinct overview.
You are so correct!!!
“That brain of mine is something more than mortal.” WOW!
I love the history of Ada and further the life of her only daughter, Anne, who also led an extraordinary life. She loved Cairo Egypt and wrote about the Bedouin people and illustrated her books in watercolor. She also had the Crabbet Arabian stables in England, acquiring many of her purebred desert Arabian horses from original stock of the great Arab breeders of the Middle East. She was the first white woman traveler of those Arabian deserts.
Fascinating. I am in love with Arabian horses. I have two in fact.
I wonder if Afar daughter Anne met with Gertrude Bell? Another British absolutely brilliant woman, who left high society in britain to live the rest of her life in the middle east, also enamored of the Bedouin people (who called themselves Amazique, free)

After listening this story and reading about another brilliant female scientist and mathematician, who may be the creator of the theory of relativity, Mileva Maric, I am grateful to live in the times where women have rights. I hope all female scientists from the past get recognition they deserve.
Oh, you enjoy fake retcons for narrative then?
What an amazing life Ada had. Brilliant in her own right, she was daughter to Lord Byron, assistant to Charles Babbage & friend to Charles Dickens, incredible.
In every computer science class I ever taught lady Ada Lovelace was centerstage while Charlie Babbage came in as a close second. - - - Thank you for the video
Why though? Not trying to discredit Lovelace, but she would of contributed nothing to computer science without Babbage's invention. Doesn't make sense to make Lovelace centerstage
@@Bokuzen035 Computer science classes are involved with teaching people how to program computers; not how to build them - - - if I were involved with teaching people how to design computers Charles Babbage would've taken center stage.
Another thing about Ada is that she was basically raised by her maternal grandmother and practiced playing music several hours each day. Music and the mathematics incorporated into it enchanted the girl.
Makes one wonder when she slept ! ? 😊
@@hjd832 most days have 24 hours in this part of the universe
@@SanGeet0510Lololololololololololololololololol
This is simply not true.
Ada did NOT play the violin... "She was a pianist, singer and dedicated harpist, and her letters show that she put music on a par with maths. In 1837 she told Somerville, 'I play four or five hours generally, and never less than three'."
The moment I learned about Ada Loveless I wondered why I hadn't heard of her before. She's truly a pillar in history and legend of science. I'm waiting for a writer/director to make a biopic about her.
And when it comes, Ada Lovelace will be played by a black woman, and will be a paragon of every imaginable virtue. Byron will of course be played as an over-the-top sort of Bond-villain type character by a white male.
@@nickmiller76no he will be played by some low talent transexual eg Mulvaney to bolster the LGBTwhat ever push.
Another who gets scant attention was movie actress Hedy Lamar ,another mathematical Genius whose invention gave us WiFi.
The reason is simple "white woman" comes to mind
@@Mercmad and bc of that few will watch and no one will enjoy it
Thank you for your reporting, it is much appreciated
Definitely needs a movie about her life and her discoveries.
it could be called "note g"
What discoveries?@@ara.may.sauvage
@@ara.may.sauvagePerfect!!!!!!
This is what I was thinking just now.... bless your heart 💖
Oh absolutely!!
Such a wonderful video, thank you! I would definitely love to see a video about her daughter. Moving so far, to a completely different culture, and breeding horses ...there's an amazing story to be told.
Ada Lovelace, known for her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine, did not make a famous deathbed confession that is widely recognized or documented in historical records. Her contributions are primarily noted for her work in mathematics and computing, rather than any dramatic personal revelations.
If there was any personal revelation or confession she made on her deathbed, it has not been recorded as a significant part of her historical legacy. Much of what is known about her life comes from letters and other contemporary documents that focus on her intellectual achievements and her role in the early history of computing.
pure clickbait, still I am glad I succumbed and learned about Ada's accomplishments
Ada’s husband had already left her quite a while before she died. She had to send for him to come see her. What did they discuss? No one knows but he would not have come back anyway. There is no evidence that she said anything new that would have made him decide not to return.
Much enjoyed and definitely fascinating. Ada's life story and contribution to computing need to be better known about and acknowledged. You have done an excellent job.
But her story's been told endlessly for at least the last twenty years. I'm afraid most people just couldn't give a damn though.
I did. It told me more than I already knew. BTW, don't be so pompous. Your intellect isn't up to it. Just sayin...
I've enjoyed your work casually for some time, but this story moved me deeply. Thank you.
I'm a huge fan of Ada Lovelace; thank you for doing this piece on her 👍🏾
That truly was facinating! I had learned she was the first programmer, but didn't know anything about her life. Thank you for doing such a great job.
We're glad you enjoyed it!
She was not the first programmer. History revisionists are trying to steal that from Babbage because "muh girl boss" 🤦
In reading through the comments, the word "fascinating" comes up over and over. I think that sums it up perfectly. Ada Lovelace's life is truly fascinating, and your synopsis is perfect. Subscribed.
This info, now affects me on so many levels, I feel a deep connection to this woman, I sadly knew nothing about. Amazing & inspiring ✨
A sad story beautifully told. Thank you. Well done.
How did I live my life and not ever hear of this amazing woman before? Thank you.
Me too.
Because she's not a man...... Women have been consistantly sidlined by history. There achievements often being claimed and/or sidlined and belittled by men...
Because she is a women ……..even today women must be better than men in their chosen field of expertise to be acknowledged , we remain in a world still dominated by men ! Regardless of the propaganda that tell us otherwise !
Women have been sadly ignored throughout history. It still goes on today.🎉
So true.@@iriscollins7583
It is obvious to me, both in pained suffering as well as an intellectual certainty, that there are many profound geniuses walking among us every day, and we'll most likely never know the profound depths from which their abstract minds viewed the world. From isolated savants to the hardest laboring factory workers, we are surrounded by unique and brilliant minds that are often hidden from us due to societal reasons, robbing us of their deep and unique creativity. Their understanding, and moreso their perspectives and projections in the natural and scientific spheres...
...it warms and saddens me to contemplate this.
What sort of world we could be if we humbled ourselves enough to hear and value all that is around us.
A very wonderful mini-documentary of an extraordinary person, both intellect and unique life-story. Thank you for your hard work, Factinate and team.
Yes, and how many brilliant minds are aborted everyday now.
I totally got lost in this wonderful telling of Ada's life. What an interesting & priceless piece of history. The pace of your story telling is perfect. I have subbed & can't wait to watch more of your content. Feeling lucky to have found this. Thank You from Australia :)
What a wonderfully sad story her life was. I can imagine what she could’ve become if allowed the resources to learn more. Thank you for this video !
yet another tragic example of women being repressed throughout history while men were allowed to rocket to their highest potential. if there had ever been gender equality, just think how many women would've been close to or even surpassed figures like Einstein, Tesla, etc. same goes for today, women are still repressed and treated badly in many spheres, ironically enough computer programming being one of them.
An amazing woman. Thank you so much for sharing her story. 🫶🏾
I'm amazed and truly thankful to know this brilliant woman's story ❤️
Fascinating to learn of her and her efforts in what was to be computing. I still can't help but feel sad at how people treated their parents, their children, and each other. So many heartaches.
Ummmm sorry Byron had it coming he was a COLOSSAL AZZhole…….I’m sure a raging destructive narcissist…..you must have any knowledge of him…..whatever he touched seemed that he destroyed it…….awful man . WAY overrated imo
Especially the wealthy who were educated and blessed with servants!
Nowadays it is even worse.
some things will never change
AI too
Her light shone so brightly that it couldn't be sustained. 🕯
Genius marred by loneliness, sad that she was misunderstood & hamstrung by "society".
Sad that on her deathbed she was deserted by Babbage who couldn't find it in his heart to forgive her.
Sad that she was ill for most of her life & suffered terribly
I'm glad she found some happiness & pray she has peace since 🙏
This was wonderful! Great job and thank you. I can't wait to watch more.
I enjoyed this very much. Thank you
It's such a shame that Ada was not given the recognition she so rightly deserved during her life time. The arrogance and pomp of men during this time and well into the 20 century, caused so many delays in health, mathematics and social issues to this day.
I do hope there is a factual book about her life and accomplishments, without the gossip of the 19 century assumptions.
Thank you for educating me about this amazing Lady.
Wrong @@DPhoenixPoet. It's the other way round, but carry on pretending poor men aren't given the credit they deserve 😂
Um, if you're going to blame anybody, blame her mother, and if you don't believe me, ask Lord Byron, how "moral and proper" she was not. Better yet, did you even notice how the author (intentionally or not) went from calling Lady Byron "moral and proper" to "cold and distant" within 30secs to 1 minute. My inference is that he (the narrator) would claim they're not mutually exclusive, which is quite frankly stunningly hilarious.
Awww bummerrrrr!
I learned the programming language named after her. That's quite a recognition.
What a truly fascinating woman who was way before her time. Great video…..thank you
I think it was really lovely that her husband had her back and totally supported her. Just goes to show when you have the support of your partner you can achieve anything you put your mind to. For those times when men ruled the world to have a husband who treated you as an equal was quite unique. What a very interesting couple they must have made.
True, which is probably why he left her bedside after the confession. If I were him I think I would have rather not known, so as to be allowed to have a good untarnished memory of her.
So supportive that he denied her morphine when she was dying in agony. Yeah, sure.
Wonderful video! I've always been a Lord Byron fan. Now I'm enchanted by his daughter as well!❤
Byron was a scoundrel with no morals
There's a play: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childe_Byron
What an extraordinary woman and a genius. I would guess and say how many women were so intelligent that were not given the opportunity to excel in areas of science medicine and all the rest.
God bless her for her genius leading to the invention of the computer eventually.
She was ahead of her time.
Thank you ma'am for your contribution to the wonders of modern life! I'm glad your husband supported you and could see who you were.
Also thank you Factinate for sharing with us!
Can we just appreciate how great the name "Ada Lovelace" is?
Very shmornxxxy.
😜 lol the answer to that game “what would be your stripper name?” 🚨💃🏼✨💋🚨

yes, it's terrific!
Linda Lovelace stole that gem
Ada Lovelace was a brief incept in my Math & Computing degree way back when but left a spot on my heart.
Thank you for the wonderful presentation. The story, the narrator's voice, the photos and graphics were all excellent. Look forward to more.
This fascinating historical account has left me eager for more! I have always had a hard time maintaining interest in history, but your account brought it all to life and now I want to hear more 😄
Really enjoyed that, thank you. The painting shown right at the end is captivating, again thank you.
What a beautiful, sad and informative story. I enjoyed it very much.
This is extremely well done.
Glad you liked it!
Working in the computer industry for over 30 years Ada’s name always popped up, my hubby brought her to my attention when he stated with her we would not be where we are now. The fact so many tried to bury her name during those early years knew that she was a shining light and hated her for the fact she was a woman and not a man.
Thankfully woman are able to shine like they should in their chosen field of academia today, some still struggle but they are beginning to win.
If it were not for fallen angels, we would not have the "technology" that we have today. Women have the appearance of "winning." Not sure what you have been smoking or who has been programming your mind, but it is working. You have no concept of this world and of the world we cannot see. Look, you do have eyes.
Truth ALWAYS comes to the light!!! 😊😊
I never knew it was a competition, there has always been extraordinary women, we know this
@@fav6587 Many women didn't know it would be a competition until men began to try to bring them down. I've been through it both in Academia in the form of my work being stolen, and in Tradeswork in the form of having my tools destroyed and my work sabotaged. I am in no way special, because my experiences are shared by many, many women.
@@fav6587seriously? More like a domination // no cake for you!
Great presentation. Excellently written and delivered.
Great job, added many details I was unaware of to her story.
I had learnt of this incredible woman through an interest in the life of her daughter, Annabella, or more precisely, Ann Isabella, and her determination to reignite interest in breeding Arabian horses. I absolutely urge you to do a video on the daughter's life as she truely was an amazing woman and achievements continue to resonate today.
So she named her own daughter after her mother...confusing!
That's the way it wa done in those days. Liking or disliking didn't come into it.@@Padraigp
@lmp8932 ah sure I know. Everyone in my family is called Joseph Mary Patrick in some combination. Either as a middle name or forename ...my uncles middle name was Mary!!! Lol!
Great video! I will note that what I was taught was all about Babbidge and nothing about Lovelace. And I didn't think to question it.
Thankyou for this very interesting video and also for letting people know about this extraordinary woman ..I had heard her name but could not recall why and I did not know she was Byrons daughter .. I am glad she has a plaque to show people who she was and is not forgotten ..subscribed
I first learned about Ada Lovelace when I was in the military as a programmer. One of the languages I learned was Ada, named in honor of the first computer programmer.
That's a myth. She didn't have a computer to program, let alone a language. Algorithm program.
I do realize that computers themselves where not around until the mid 20th century. However, Ada's brilliant work, along with Babbage, laid the foundation on which developed into today's computer programming. So, I see nothing wrong with calling her the mother of programming. Or you could call her the grandmother of programming. Either way, programmers today like myself, owe her, Babbage, and the wonderfully, brilliant Rear Admiral Grace Hopper for their work
I was surprised that the Ada programming language was not mentioned. My familiarity and experience with Ada (also from the military) is what drew me to watch this video.
Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense in an international open competition in the 1970's, the Ada programming language was finally codified in 1983 in Military Standard 1815 (MIL-STD-1815). Numbered specifically from her birth year instead of just the next available number. The language has continued to evolve and is now an ISO standard last updated in May 2023. (ISO/IEC 8652:2023)
Sadly, despite the DoD's requirement for new software development to be written in Ada, most projects (i.e. contractors) took advantage of the waiver system (or just ignored the requirement) and didn't use it because of their vested interest. Since it was a new language, the pool of available developers grew too slowly for it to really take hold and eventually the DoD gave up requiring its use. It lives on in many aerospace and transportation systems (used in TGV trains, Ariane5, F-22, etc.) due to its inherent safety features, built-in multitasking, and other features that make developing reliable and readable code easy. Despite the inherent safety of Ada, an even stricter subset and usage guidelines, called SPARK is now the de facto for safety critical development in Ada.
It's years since I did any coding. Just a retired old fart these days.
Back in the day, I did try a little coding in Ada, simply out of curiosity and respect.
What a remarkable woman. Easily on a level with Da Vinci imho.
@@BrettCaton i spy a misogynist
So for anyone looking for what she told her husband on her deathbed: it's unknown, yet they build it up like there's a huge reveal. Clickbait as far as I'm concerned. Thumbs down...
TYTYTY & bless you! 🕊️
Thank you saved some time.
Thank you! That's 3 videos out of three, I'm unsubscribing. Hate supporting clickbait. 😡
Well it is an interesting true story...so whatever she said..he left..lol
Yeah
Thank you for sharing this. It was particularly touching for me...
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely amazing story into the life of Ada Lovelace ! Who knew she had such an interest in numbers. I really enjoyed your video and style of presentation and have subscribed for further interesting videos !
Very interesting and entertaining! I’ve become a fan! Thank you!
The photo that appears at minute 8:07 and again at minute 14:40 is a well-known photo of of Florence Nightingale. There may to be some resemblance between Miss Nightingale and Ada Lovelace, but if the photo is supposed to be Lovelace, I’m afraid this is an error.
Agree. That is a photo of Florence Nightingale. It’s puzzling to see it here because Lovelace and Nightingale did not look much alike. See Wikipedia “Florence Nightingale.”
Could this be because AI has been used to compile this video?
Why be afraid?
Great video! Well narrated, fascinating story, and beautiful background music!!
I love this channel. I am a history buff.
Me too! Love knowledge
Wonderful, engaging and beautifully done. Thank you!
Very nice. The picture of Florence Nightingale was a nice touch.
Except they didn't identify it as her! Did they meet? Nightingale's main contribution to medicine was translating records, data, statistics and numbers into good policy.
At least it wasn't Mary Seacole.
Mary Seacole is my hero. Totally selfless. And smarter than Flo.
Thank you for making a video about Ada.
Well researched. Have read her father and Shelley's lives over the years and understood Ada's contribution to mathematics. Byron's record of his treaclemoon (honeymoon) with his new wife is like something out of a gothic novel. Why her married her has always remained unexplained - perhaps his Princess of Parallelograms offered a hint of respectability, but thankfully for the existence of their daughter Ada - like Shelley wife's creation Frankenstein, an enduring legacy was born.
The Shelley branch also brought about Mary Wollstonecraft who was quite the extraordinary woman herself
Yes, though there was no relationship between Mary Wollstonecraft (author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792), and Shelley other than he married her daughter through organizing a meeting with Godwin . Sadly Mary's mother had died giving birth to her child who later became the famous creator of Frankenstein.
Both women are worthy subjects of discovery and have been given various biographies as I sure you know.
She was attractive And extremely intelligent. Women like that are Rarely appreciated and lauded
frankly many fear and persecute them to this day
Never heard of her before. Wonderful yet sad life story.
Thank you for this amazing life story!
Thank you for this video. What a sad story; what a tragic life.
Beautiful story, beautifully spoken .
Indeed lovely Scottish accent
Great video, well researched and nicely presented
???? research !!!!
She may have died young but she left a mark on history. Nvidia Even named one of their recent GPU lines after her
The way her family members treated her and health issues was sad. Why did all the parents of this time period never cared for their kids. 🤦🏽♀️ smh
If your child had something like a 25% chance of dying before the age of 5 and death was all around you even as adults, it was probably best not to get too emotionally close.
My English cousin, born into a wealthy family in 1951, was really raised by a nanny and was not loved by her parents. There is no question that many aristocratic English families for generations were raised by nannies and sent off to private boarding schools. Things have changed. I can’t imagine sending my child to boarding school. We also see mistreatment of children worldwide even today.
Great video. I had only briefly heard of Ada Lovelace before but very interesting to hear about her life. Seems she was a very brilliant and interesting lady. Just imagine what she might have accomplished if she hadn't died at such an early age.
Thank you! She’s always been a heroine of mine.🥰
this episode left me like WOWWW. that last quote "as time will show." So so deep!!! She was right. just wow. I love your channel.
Wonderful bio of a fascinating woman. The narrative is so well written!
Your new subscriber
Excellent narrative! I absolutely enjoyed your video and look forward to more. Thank you.
Absolutely fascinating! Imagine if she had lived beyond the age of 36.....
Great! Very well edited and presented, thank you.
A wonderful tribute to one of our leading thinkers and innovators, whose only satisfaction may be their own productions.
Nicely put together, thanks!
Excellent, Interesting & Educational. Thank You Very Much. Best Regards,& Happy New Year.
I love your style of storytelling. It's calm and haunting at the same time.
My daughter went to The first computer scientist school aimed at women in London called Ada . Now she has mer masters and an amazing job .
I always wanted to know more about Ada Lovelace! Thank you!
Thank you for this video. It is good to see Ada get the credit she deserved. Also, isn't it incredible how she was given almost no love by her mother, and yet, due to her mother pushing the sciences on her, that gave the world the first computer program. Of course she might not have managed to make such a great discovery without Babbage's Difference Engine to spark off the thought, but she might have none-the-less, we will never know. Wouldn't it be wonderful for her to see how we use computers today. Her dreams realised by literally 90% of the planet. She would be a wonderful person to speak to I'm sure. Thank you again for this fascinating video.
She sees us. They watch us the way we watch television. Our lives are their entertainment. They still love their families and remain committed to them. Many return into the same family just playing a different role. We are eternal after all.
I don't think nobility in general spent much time with their children, to be fair.
She is dead.@@lorimiller4301
They still use the ADA language in computer tech. I’ve heard.
@@suzie2zWay back when I was a young programmer in the military, we were taught Ada. Similar to Pascal computer language.
Excellent video! Thanks for putting this all together! I've often said if half of humanity were treated decently, we would've been to the moon and back before 1900.
raising a child is not easy. If you are too strict, or too relaxed, you get similar "wild child" behaviors.
Fascinating woman. She is truly the reason we are all communicating right now. Sad that having children one right after another probably contributed to her cancer.
You think so? Lol....
"She lost contact with her husband after confessing something to him on 30 August which caused him to abandon her bedside. It is not known what she told him." Wikipedia.
What a great overview of the life of AL - thanks!
What did Ada Lovelace say?
“Religion to me is science and science is religion.” “The more I study, the more insatiable do I feel my genius for it to be.” “Your best and wisest refuge from all troubles is in your science.”
Thank you for this video. I had no idea who Ada Lovelace was until I watched it.
One of my true heroes.
I would say that it took a century to recognize her genius is a bit of an understatement. I personally was never taught anything about her and only learned of her after they invented the computer language Ada named after her in the 1970s. As an early computer nerd , I will understood how unusual it was even in the early 1980s to understand what was happening inside these black boxes called computers. I love explaining this to people and trying to get them to learn all that they could themselves to see what these tools could do For their productivity and creativity. For me, it just came naturally… And I imagine that Ada herself had this 19th century version of a geek mind.
It is especially interesting that despite her genius, she was clearly a social and somewhat outgoing person, family Unction set aside.
For an interesting take on an alternate history, where Babbage and love laces, ideas were influential in their own time, see the novel, the different engine. It’s very fun, especially if you’ve been any part of the computer revolution and it’s strange dynamics yourself.
Computers are a labor of love.
thanks for this book recommendation!
Yes! I'm old enough to remember when schools first started offering computer studies and even the teachers didn't understand it yet😆
Well written @lakefxdan !
By the way I owned a Commodore 64 Oh what a dinosaur!! Me and the ‘computer’.😊
Ever since I learned Lord Byron had a daughter that was noted in history as the 1st computer programmer, I've been intrigued. I've been searching through all content I could uncover about Ada Lovelace.
Any recommendations for books about Ada?
"Lady Byron and her Daughters"
The photograph of the woman with the bonnet, which is shown several times, is not a picture of Ada Lovelace. This is a famous picture of Florence Nightingale.
Wow! What a pleasant surprise. Thank you very much.
For a lady of only 26 years of life left a legacy and knowledge and learning still up to this day
Well before her time was she born ...
I really enjoyed this- thank you. I’ve listened to quite a number of stories recently where the gentry had unloving mothers.
