- Mehram Sahami's (Stanford CS Lecturer, Googler) end-of-quarter closing speech during the last lecture. The inspirational part starts around the 1:30 mark. It's kind of like the CS version of Robin Williams in Dead Poet's Society but not quite as theatrical. Hopefully this is covered under fair use.
Sahami is LEGEND! His CS106A classes kick-started my programming career, and I've never even met him in person!
You're awesome dude! (Thought I'd say thank you the american way ther :)
I'm a math professor, and I once received a negative student eval with the comment ``He thinks math is the most important subject in the world." I took it as a compliment.
He is THE best!
13 years has passed, open problems are still open problems
i wish all teachers were like him....
The analogy that we are living in the time of Euclid for the current breakthrough is indeed inspiring!
You made my day thanks Mehran Sahami you have such a good sense of humor that's makes you so Spaicial thanks again
A great speech from a great lecturer. His CS106A lectures are great!

I wish i had a teacher like that.
Damn, Stanford was such a different place back in the day - looked way more fulfilling, and the community + professors seemed really welcoming.
Stanford in 2022 looks completely different - cold, unforgiving, isolating, and very lacking in trust.
If you would look at the date this was uploaded you would see that this video happened in 2006. A lot of schools used chalk back then.
Currently attending Stanford and I can tell you for sure that they still use chalk boards (at least for math classes).
This one really inspired me to conc more on DS and algo.Thanx a ton!
Hello sir, i m from future
Life changing speech
That's a disappointing smattering of applause after such a rad speech.
They do slide. You start writing with all the "top ones" pulled down, then when you fill them up, you push the top chalkboard up, revealing a fresh new chalkboard.
"Don Knuth". Or Donald Erwin Knuth, to be exact. Author of the seminal multi-volume work The Art of Computer Programming
Stanford still use chalks..
great prof wish i was at stanford
is there a complete lecture that I could follow
amazing !
His cs106a lectures are so good. I suggest someone to watch and learn java using it.
I'm doing so now but I had to buy my own big bag of candy to throw around my room.
Very motivating .
good outlook on life.
@BlingBlingDo the boards slide up and down. Where you from?
Where can I find entire video?
What was he teaching here? Discrete maths?
Donald Knuth
guess what?.. hahah.. its 4.50 AM here in seattle... Man had i knew studying in stanford can be this great... i would have done everything possible to get thru... blah blah blah... \/ Peace
Shoutout to code in place
this is a cool cat
Whats the name of Professor to whom Mehram referred as 'Father of computer science' . I have played that part a dozen times where he spoke the name and i couldn't get it. I am dying of curiosity , plz anyone tell me the name , Thanks.
don knuth
uhhh....what?
Useless ! Just a regular prof. rambling on. Nothing special about it. He is just waving his arms in the air as if he is trying to swim
