10:07 Close, the ON/OFF symbol is the line (1) completely surrounded by the circle (0), the symbol with the line 'peaking out' of the circle, as shown here, is for ON/STANDBY, to indicate that the machine isn't fully OFF, it is still drawing power, it is just 'asleep' and ready to 'wake up' either by pressing the button, or from another signal, such as from a remote control.

There is actually is 1000 MB in GB The thing with 1024 is MiB & GiB - informatical units The other are used for marketing because if you just 1000 things instead of 1024 the number written on the harddrive is bigger

That google maps pin story is incorrect; pins are literally a thing you physically push into maps offline. Always have been. You're old enough you should know that lol. Apple Maps uses a pin that looks like a pushpin still. It makes more sense.

"Correction: 12:35 There is a typo in the number, the correct one is 9,223,372,036,854,775,806" no that's 2^63-2, its actually 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 which was actually correct the 1st time however it's 2^63-1 not 2^63 like it says in the video it's 2^63-1 because they are stored as a signed 64 bit integer (i'm assuming), it is 2^63-1 not 2^64-1 because the 1st bit of the number is the sign meaning if its 0 then the number is positive and if it's 1 then the number is negative, and the -1 is due to computers counting from 0 so since there's 2^63 combinations of 63 bits and one of them is 0 then the maximum must be 2^63-1, also yes this means that the highest negative is -2^63 not -2^63+1 because -0 is just 0

@yuu-kun3461 2 месяца назад
12:34 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 is 2^63 - 1, and not 2^63. This is because 0 is counted; so for example if you have 2^3 max bits you can count from 0 to 7 which is 8 numbers in total.

@@ssl55 There is no such thing as "everyday standards"; what you probably mean is that most people believe a Gigabyte is "the" unit, and don't understand the difference between binary and decimal, or rather they don't even know that binary units exist. That's not a standard, that's a misunderstanding. In reality, there are both Gigabytes (GB) and Gibibytes (GiB). GB are decimal in nature, and are worth 1000 bytes (the atomic unit). Gibibytes are binary in nature, and are worth 1024 bytes. Actually, that's just a decimal representation of a binary number, but nobody is going to write everything in one's and zero's, so we convert. We can also use parts of decimal math, like powers of two, to talk about stuff in binary. But back to the topic: There are situations for each unit. When dealing with physical things, like hard drive capacity, GiB are better, since you'll have a nice clean number for your size, like 100000 GiB. If this were in GB, it would be something like 148906370 GB (not a real conversion). That's harder to work with. On the other hand, when doing higher level stuff like storing photos, GB are better. Let's say each pixel of my photo is one byte. There are 100 rows and 100 columns. That's 1000 B, or 1 GB. If we used GiB we'd end up with an arbitrary number like 1321 GiB. Again, that's harder to work with. Computers don't store things in GB or GiB, they just use huge numbers of Bytes (the atomic unit, worth 1). This GB/GiB stuff only exists for human-readability. Although using the wrong one can make things harder, it would be a lot harder if we had to use numbers like 567746885357985367466 B all the time. Which is why we cut it down to MB, KB, GB, TB, etc.

In the video you actually see the letter Grace Hopper wrote, with words "First case of an actual bug..." The term "bugs in the machine" was already in common use. The unfortunate moth was just the first documented case of an actual bug causing problems in an electrical machine. Grace Hopper may have been the first to coin the term "debugging" (fixing faults in a machine/program) as a reference to the poor moth incident.

@@EverDodd No, the moth story is true. But it's not the first bug. The caption written on the paper says "the first bug" but they wouldn't have said that at the time if they were truly inventing a word. They were likely being tongue-in-cheek and saying "oh look, this is a bug that's an actual bug".

1. The moth story is incorrect. Please be better and research your videos and claims before publishing them. 2. The pushpin thing is also incorrect. As other commentors have pointed out. 3. You literally stole footage from Tom Scott's video on the CloudFlare lava lamps: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1cUUfMeOijg.html. Shameful. (also you called it SSL/TLS even though it's been TLS for a decade, since SSL was deprecated) 4. Gibibytes have 1024 and gigabytes have 1000. Yes this is very niche knowledge, but don't speak with authority on things you don't understand. 5. The Beethoven story doesn't have much evidence backing it up. HALF of these items have issues. Seriously. Be better. This isn't a private talk with your friends, this is a public RU-vid video where you are claiming to know what you're talking about. You have a certain responsibility about your words when you put them out in a public platform like this.

He credited Tom Scott (although it's not visible for long as it zooms in), I don't think it's shameful to use a couple of seconds of video of something as background footage of something that probably doesn't have a free alternative.
