1821 - O matemático inglês Charles Babbage

No ano de 1821, as engrenagens da Revolução Industrial ganharam impulso com a visão visionária de Charles Babbage, um matemático inglês destemido. Nesse ano marcante, Babbage concebeu a "Difference Engine", uma máquina de calcular movida a vapor que transcendia as fronteiras do pensamento matemático da época. Esse feito revolucionário não apenas redefiniu a maneira como números eram processados, mas também lançou as bases para o futuro da computação. O legado de Babbage ecoa até os dias de hoje, pois suas ideias pioneiras pavimentaram o caminho para a era digital, transformando a maneira como interagimos com a informação e moldando o tecido da sociedade moderna.

It's October 12th, 💻 Ada Lovelace Day. Ms. Suw Charman-Anderson founded this event in 2009 in celebration of the life and achievements of respected English mathematician Augusta Ada King, Countess of Lovelace, commonly referred to simply as Ada Lovelace.

During her lifetime, Ms. Lovelace rubbed shoulders with many of her era's most well-known scientists, including Michael Faraday and Charles Babbage. It's her work with Babbage on his proposed mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine, that Ms. Lovelace is most famous for. She recognized that the machine had capabilities well beyond simple calculation and published the first algorithm designed to be run by such a machine. As a result, she's generally regarded to have been the world's first computer programmer.

Ada Lovelace Day has grown from a London Science Cabaret in 2009 to become an international celebration of the achievements of women in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). It's goal it to increase the profiles of women in STEM and created new role models who will encourage even more girls to embark upon STEM careers. Ada Lovelace is a perfect role model to emulate. ☮️ Peace… Jamiese of Pixoplanet

But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction." -John F Kennedy # "If you plan on being anything less than you are capable being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life." -Abraham Maslow # "Errors using inadequate data are much less than those using no data at all." -Charles Babbage # "Less is only more when more is no good." -Frank Lloyd Wright # "People who treat other people as less than human must not be surprised when the bread they have cast on the waters comes floating back to them, poisoned." -James Baldwin # "There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living." -Nelson Mandela # "Honesty is for the most part less profitable than dishonesty." -Plato #getmessyartjournal #getmessyart #gmseasonofless #getmessyseasonofless #artjournal #artjournaling #visualjournal #visualjournaling #quotes #collage #artjournalpage #artjournals #artistsoninstagram #visualjournals #acrylicpaint #gelplateprinting #gelplateprints #permapaque #charlesbabbage #jamesbaldwinquotes #nelsonmandelaquotes #franklloydwright https://www.instagram.com/p/CBHb6EpASNG/?igshid=ycmcg8ysiamq

26th December 1606, King Lear by William Shakespeare is performed for the first known time at the court of King James I at Whitehall, London on St. Stephen’s Day, the saint's day to commemorate Saint Stephen, the first Christian martyr. Today St. Stephen’s day would be known in Britain as Boxing day. King Lear originates from the legend of Leir of Britain, a mythological Celtic king recorded by Geoffrey of Monmouth in his 12th-century work, the ‘History of the Kings of Britain’. 26th December 1682, birth of the English pirate captain Jack (John) Rackhan, also known as Calico Jack, due to the calico clothing he wore. Calico Jack operated from the Bahamas from 1718-1720, in the last period of the Golden Age of piracy. After serving as a quartermaster on fellow pirate Charles Vane's sloop Ranger in 1718, Rackhman deposed Vane of his captaincy. While in Nassau in 1720 Rackham met and started an affair with Anne Bonny who joined his crew. Aboard Rackham’s ship ‘The Revenge’ also was Mark Read, who it was discovered was Mary Read. Read and Bonny are the only two women known to have been convicted of piracy during the early 18th century. 26th December 1716, birth of English pre Romantic poet Thomas Gray. Despite publishing only 13 poems, Gray was well known during his lifetime, mostly for his poem, ‘Elegy Written in a Country Church Yard’, published in 1751. The poems themes of the contemplation of death and afterlife, foreshadow the Gothic movement, beginning with the first Gothic novel “The Castle of Otranto” (1764), written by his childhood friend Horace Walpole. Gray was a popular influence to the Romantic poets of the succeeding generation, such as Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth.

The calculating engines of English mathematician Charles Babbage (1791-1871) are among the most celebrated icons in the prehistory of computing. Babbage’s Difference Engine No.1 was the first successful automatic calculator and remains one of the finest examples of precision engineering of the time. Babbage is sometimes referred to as "father of computing." The International Charles Babbage Society (later the Charles Babbage Institute) took his name to honor his intellectual contributions and their relation to modern computers. #charlesbabbage (at Uno Business Park by McCoy Pal's Infrastructure Ltd.) https://www.instagram.com/p/CX7nLpzIM5n/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is one of the difference engine made by Charles Babbage. . Babbage is credited with inventing the first mechanical computer that eventually led to more complex electronic designs, and the essential ideas of modern computers can be found in Babbage's Analytical Engine. . .
