I've already given a clue, but does anyone who this is?Ada Lovelace? It is.It is Ada Lovelace.
They split when Ada was about a year old.Ada never met her father.He fled the country in a cloud of scandal, never came back.
I'm going to read and then maybe ask you a few questions to help me out."Ada was born into a world of poetry, but numbers, not words, captured her imagination.Her mother, Lady Byron, had a passion for geometry.
So scandalous that Lady Byron bundled up her new baby and fled London to her parents' home over 100 miles away.Ada never saw her father again.Now Ada could only know her father through his books.
You're going to see a lot of Mrs. Puff as we go along."Ada's latest invention was a flying machine.She had built a set of real wings, but could they actually fly?
Multiplying and dividing over and over again.Ada loved numbers, but these calculations seemed endless.Wasn't there an easier way?
Rain pounded on the roof and pelted through the open window.Ada jumped up to latch the shutters.The curtains flapped in and out like sails billowing in the wind.
Sails? Sails were like wings.Ada could use the wind to do an experiment for her flying machine.She grabbed her journal and charged out into the howling storm." What is her expression?
She was worried. She cabled mama to come home right away.Ada had the measles.For many long days and nights, mama read Ada her favorite books.
If Ada flew, she'd be able to reach London in only a few hours, just in time for tea!Ada's number company. 15 times 12 was still 180 and always would be, whether Ada could see or not.Over the next few weeks, her eyes got better, but it was three long years before she could put away her crutches.
She hired tutors so Ada could learn math at an even higher level.Ada's favorite was Mary Fairfax Somerville, the well-known scientist and mathematician.Somerville was living proof that girls could do math and do it well.
But I was in the Babbage room."Ada brought her journals to show him her own experiments and inventions.Their tea grew cold as they talked about their love of machines and mathematics.
Now Babbage was a friend as well." OK.Ada's looking at a mechanical doll that Babbage had.But look at her magnifying glass.
He knew Ada would understand how his extraordinary invention worked.Ada did more than understand.She couldn't wait to see the difference engine in action.
He ran out of money.Ada carried home a stack of Babbage's lab books, 30 in all, filled with notes about the analytical engine.she studied the technical descriptions and pored over the diagrams.
she studied the technical descriptions and pored over the diagrams.Ada quickly realized that without instructions, the analytical engine would be a useless pile of metal parts.It needed numbers to make it work-- her numbers, her friends.
It needed numbers to make it work-- her numbers, her friends.Ada decided to create an algorithm, a set of mathematical instructions for the analytical engine.The machine could follow these instructions and solve a complex math problem, one difficult to figure out by hand."
Who wrote "Harry Potter?" JK Rowling!Ada couldn't know that one day a computer language would be named after her-- Ada.
to celebrate diversity and inclusion.ADA is the Americans-- The Americans with Disabilities Act, which you talked about before.Yeah. What's interesting is there's a beautiful dance company out west called Axis, and they've been around a really long time doing
This notion that technology can destroy us was ingrained in Lord Byron.Ada felt the opposite.She had this friend, Charles Babbage, who had made a pretty good calculator called the difference engine, was trying to conceive one which he never got
built called the analytical engine, which uses punch cards to do the processing of the numbers.Ada writes a set of notes that are totally fascinating.You've got to read them.
But as I learned more, I heard they receive educationadapted to their needs.Disabled or developmentally disabled people need special care more.
So here are some of the leadership character traits and competency examples.Adaptability and resilience, communication, professional impact and poise, developing others, influence and collaboration, initiative, problem-solving,respect for others, results orientation.

much warmer future, where rather than changing course on the mitigation side, yes, but also more profoundly, perhaps, on theadaptation side, rather than changing course and designing a much more responsive and resilient future,we will just find ourselves defining more and more suffering as acceptable and normal
You know, five or six years ago I might have said that that would that spelled doom for ouradaptation, and there may be considerably more that we need to do to help them on that front.
emotional conflicts or stressors and to think about them and engage with them in a way that'sadaptive. So so it helps us. Some people call it like an overnight therapy during during sleep that is helping us to adaptand to engage more in in a better way the next day.
emotional. They're so stressful that you're woken up out of sleep um before any sort ofadaptation can take place. So, you just keep having this kind of nightmare on a loop.And it builds to a point and even often even physiologically builds to a point that someone their sleep is
