Core Rope Memory, which contained the programs that landed man on the Moon in the 1960s, is insanely complicated. But that …

Hi Marc. I love your content. Unfortunately I hated maths in my teens in my french speaking european chool because of constant abuse to count only on speed and memorizing
question, Whats the read and write specs for some of these core rope memory ? like speed ?
"It's super obvious if you've got Mike's visual web tool, but unfortunately, they didn't have Mike or the web."
Flag on the play, unnecessary savagery.
Do you have the bit patterns uploaded somewhere?
i need a Ram chip implanted in my brain just to keep up with this stuff. For the first time I see how the rope memory is possible. Before, I could not see how wrapping a bunch wires, in and out of a frame could store data. Now I get it.
Didn't expect to see a shout out to Look mum no computer! LOVE THAT GUY! 🙂 marc you're awesome!
After seeing all these explorations, it baffles me that some people think moon landings were fake video productions 😢
You guys might not wear capes, but you're also a kind of heroes to me 🙂
Confusing stuff, more confusing stuff, SCHMOO PLOT!
What about the real Saturn V hanging from the ceiling in Huntsville?
What was the original intention of including the AB bit in the parity calculation? I see that it prevents the corresponding core in the B bank from being set, but since bank A has its own RESET wire that seems redundant. Did someone just get a little too creative for their own good?
WOW – great work Mike!
Was always curious how core rope memory worked but always struggled to wrap my head around it. Your explanation and visualization was fantastic.
I wonder if SpaceX would be interested in sending a Dragon or a Starship to intercept the Apollo 10 LM and recover it or the fixed and erasable modules.
That'd be the ultimate private industry flex (Not only are we colonizing Mars, we're recovering the historical artifacts that the government disposed of as trash on the way to doing it.)
Mike work on nasa or space x?
Thanks so much for taking the time to make such great videos – easily my favourite YouTube tech channel!
Now that computer programs code was hard-coded, more like it was hard wired!
Thanks!
Thanks for making these and for saving such an important part of our history. ❤
We as humans are amazing.
