#AdaLovelace (paraphrased):
Watch Out for Two Big Mistakes
When people first hear about the Analytical Engine, they tend to make one of two mistakes. The first is getting too excited and thinking it can do more than it really can. The second is going too far the other way — once they realize it has limits, they decide it’s not that impressive after all. Both mistakes miss the truth.(1/4)

Le code a été inventé par une femme. 🙍♀️
Bien avant nos ordinateurs, Ada Lovelace a écrit le tout premier programme informatique. En 1843, elle imaginait déjà un monde où les machines pourraient créer de l'art et de la musique.

Si Mary Shelley dio vida a un monstruo de ficción, Ada Lovelace le dio vida a una máquina real ⚙️✨
A mediados del siglo XIX, cuando las mujeres ni siquiera podían votar, ella escribió el primer programa informático de la historia. Aquí tienes lo más fascinante de la “Encantadora de Números”:Hija del escándalo: Era la única hija legítima del poeta Lord Byron (sí, el mismo del reto de Mary Shelley).
Su madre, aterrorizada de que Ada heredara la “locura poética” de su padre, la obligó a estudiar matemáticas y lógica desde niña.La Máquina Analítica: Se hizo amiga del inventor Charles Babbage, quien diseñaba una calculadora gigante. Mientras Babbage solo veía números, Ada vio posibilidades.
El “Algoritmo”: En sus famosas Notas sobre la máquina de Babbage, describió cómo la máquina podía calcular los números de Bernoulli.
Ese es, oficialmente, el primer software del mundo.Visión de futuro: Fue la primera en predecir que las computadoras no solo servirían para matemáticas, sino para crear música, arte y gráficos, siempre que se les dieran las instrucciones adecuadas 🎼🖥️
Hoy, su legado es tan grande que el lenguaje de programación Ada lleva su nombre en su honor.
Efectivamente, ese nombre es un reflejo directo de su linaje y de su ascenso social por matrimonio.
El cambio de Ada Byron a Condesa de Lovelace se debe a la estructura de la nobleza británica del siglo XIX:Nacimiento (Ada Byron): Nació como Augusta Ada Byron, única hija legítima del poeta Lord Byron y Anne Isabella Noel Byron.
Matrimonio (Ada King): En 1835, se casó con William King-Noel, quien en ese momento era el octavo barón King.
Al casarse, ella pasó a ser Lady King.El título (Condesa de Lovelace): En 1838, su esposo fue nombrado Conde de Lovelace (un ascenso de barón a conde).
Por derecho de matrimonio, Ada se convirtió automáticamente en la Condesa de Lovelace, el nombre con el que pasaría a la historia.Pero Ada Lovelace no solo fue una visionaria de la computación.
También tenía el espíritu rebelde y arriesgado de su padre, Lord Byron.
En la década de 1840 intentó aplicar su “ciencia poética” a un terreno mucho más peligroso: las apuestas legales.El “Sistema Matemático”: Junto a un grupo de amigos (incluido Charles Babbage en un inicio), Ada intentó desarrollar un modelo matemático complejo para predecir los ganadores de las carreras de caballos.
Creía que, si una máquina podía procesar datos lógicos, su mente podía encontrar patrones ocultos en el azar 🏇📉El sindicato de apuestas: Creó una red secreta de apostadores.
Sin embargo, las matemáticas no pudieron contra variables imprevisibles como el clima, la salud de los caballos o las trampas humanas.
El sistema fracasó estrepitosamente.Deudas y chantaje: Perdió una enorme cantidad de dinero, equivalente a miles de libras actuales.
Se vio obligada a empeñar joyas familiares en secreto, y algunos socios intentaron chantajearla con revelar el escándalo a su estricto esposo.El final del juego: Su madre, Lady Byron, tuvo que intervenir para pagar las deudas y evitar un escándalo público que habría destruido su reputación científica y social.
Ada Lovelace murió en 1852, con solo 36 años, a causa de un cáncer de útero.
Los tratamientos médicos de la época —sangrías y altas dosis de opio— agravaron su estado.
En un gesto profundamente simbólico, pidió ser enterrada junto a su padre, Lord Byron, a quien apenas conoció en vida.Este episodio final, como toda su historia, demuestra que Ada no fue una académica fría ni una figura decorativa de la aristocracia.
Fue una mujer apasionada, brillante y temeraria, decidida a explorar hasta dónde podían llegar los números… y hasta dónde podía llegar la mente humana 💡▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣▣

I'm in the process of #renovating and restyling my place, rugs, paint, #decoration etc.
I purchased a set of posters from #Etsy to frame them and hang them in my man's cave where I already have others from topics of my interest or special occasions like concerts signed posters and such.
But this time I wanted to do something different; have portraits or drawings of people I consider revolutionized the world, especially around my area so I've got these:

Nel 210esimo anniversario della nascita di #AdaLovelace, un #film fantart-scientifico che credo non sia mai arrivato nelle sale italiane nonostante la presenza della sempre favolosa #TildaSwinton. Ed è giustificato che, per omaggiare la "prima programmatrice", vennero sperimentati set virtuali e ci fu pure un cameo di #BruceSterling. Conceiving Ada (1997) | https://ok.ru/video/1799043025455

Whenever I see a generated image of what is supposed to be Ada Lovelace, I feel compelled to work on my portrait drawing of her. Based on the only two photographs of her.
She wanted to be remembered, not turned into an AI-generated Victorian Bratz doll, and she thoroughly disagreed with the usage of machines without vision.

"Pray do not corrupt the cats with poetry" (Ada Lovelace to George Eliot in The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage).
In her riotous, rigorously researched #GraphicNovel, Sydney Padua invents an alternate universe where, instead of dying young, #AdaLovelace teams up with #CharlesBabbage to build a monumental #steampunk calculating engine. Padua's zany drawings are a delight, as is her zest for scholarly (and cheeky) footnotes!

Happy #AdaLovelaceDay! 🤗A day to celebrate #WomenInSTEM 🎉, named after ‘poetical scientist’ #AdaLovelace, who in the 1840s (!) envisioned machines that could compose music, draw & calculate, & who wrote what’s considered the first algorithm for a computing machine - 100 years before computers existed!💻

"Babbage saw the analytical engine as a mathematical device. After all, it primarily stored and operated on numbers. But Lovelace recognized that a machine designed to crunch numbers could do much more if the numbers represented other things.
“Supposing, for instance, that the fundamental relations of pitched sounds in the science of harmony and of musical composition were susceptible of such expression and adaptations, the engine might compose elaborate and scientific pieces of music of any degree of complexity or extent.”"
Happy Ada Lovelace Day!

[This happened already and was recorded. Description from the YT recording]
«This year at PyCon UK, you’re warmly invited to a world premiere: Ada, a brand-new play inspired by Ada Lovelace, written by Emily Holyoake, and staged as a rehearsed reading by Nottingham-based theatre company Chronic Insanity
'You may turn the handle, and I will whirr and calculate without error!'
Decades before the first computers are built, Ada imagines machines that can do anything, even compose beautiful pieces of music. Far beyond Ada’s future, a learning machine called Ginny breaks free of her routine and tests the boundaries of what ought to be possible.
Ada is an intricate re-telling of the life and legacy of Ada Lovelace, pioneer of computing, paralleling her history with a contemporary story about the potential of artificial intelligence.

Great book! 👍 Here's the hardback over art.
Note to the curious... the first few pages are a very jocular but accurate depiction of Ada's origin, upbringing, and influences (a great way to learn her story). The remainder is a mash-up of historical figures like #GeorgeEliot, #steampunk fantasy (all on the mark), & early #information_science.
It is a wild and rewarding ride!

i find all of this extraordinary:
#MaryShelley created "#Frankenstein"
the seminal work (arguably the first work of #scienceFiction)-
humanity creating artificial life
in a ghost story writing contest suggested by #LordByron
the father of #AdaLovelace
who predicted #AI (the first person to seriously address the topic)-
humanity creating an artificial mind
something to think about this #womensHistoryMonth:
the artistic and technological mothers of our age

an interesting connection:
it was #LordByron who proposed the ghost story writing contest that led to #MaryShelley writing "#Frankenstein", and he was the father of another #womensHistoryMonth notable: #AdaLovelace
her story is well known, but less well known is that she predicted #AI
she rejected it
her rejection was not without teeth, because the first non-#scienceFiction champion of AI, #AlanTuring, spent an inordinate amount of time refuting her critique

Hello world!
Zum Geburtstag der Mathematikerin #AdaLovelace gibt's eine etwas andere Hommage. -
not only was #lovelace the world's first #programmer, she was also the first #AI detractor
and i know that because the first non-#sciencefiction proponent of AI, #alanturing, cited her in his defense of/ argument for AI
#turing framed the foundational thoughts of the entire field of AI, as an argument against ada's thoughts
and she lived many decades before turing!
#adalovelace was an amazing woman
she deserves her own hollywood movie

Today we remember #AdaLovelace Day, famed for her work on #CharlesBabbage's proposed mechanical computer, the #AnalyticalEngine.
In 1843, Lovelace published what would now be recognized as a #computerprogram to generate Bernoulli numbers and was the first to see the creative potential of Babbage's machine.
As for the day honoring Lovelace, its goal is to increase the profile of women in STEM and encourage more girls into #STEM careers.
