This guy seems smart. He should steal data or something
Not stealing when you give it to them
@@zeitgeist2720 still is stealing when the consent is manufactured
@@zeitgeist2720 yeah totally, the multiple lawsuits including one on the misleading of customers about their data privacy were all just for pretend
He should ban people for no reason on his own platform
Oh wait
Crazy that Mark Zuckerberg gave a lecture on computer science and only like 20 people showed up
Who dat?
@@nassiratti8542 yea and someone got there late lol
It's to ensure social distancing.
This is not a lecture. He does not go into many technical details. I'd call it a presentation of a real world application of some of the things the students learn in the course. It's cool anyways, but ain't a lecture.
@@ev.c6 it is a lecture
It's crazy how few people were in that massive lecture hall. All my CS classes are almost fully packed. It goes to show how competitive it is now.
first lecture: even larger halls are crowed, but at the end the semester: only a fraction of the students are around. And once you reach higher levels: lots of people already stopped studying or won't visit lectures
They didn't have apps back then 😭
yeah it’s way too over saturated now
@@derekmeade1741 no such thing as over-saturated. its just really competitive.
@@hamzaanegm uh no there is definitely such a thing as over-saturated
40:57 “If people feel like their information isn’t private, then that screws us in the long-term…” - Mark Zuckerberg (2005)
i like how you have to put (2005) next to it as mark has since gotten numerous software updates and shares very few attributes that mark version 2005 had.
It didn't aged well xD
That aged like milk.
now ppl don't know about it
ppl here are talking like they are the head of NSA huh, yall dont know jacksht
This feels like a rare look into a very important piece of history.
I wonder how many people have been adversely affected by Facebook
The crowd exemplifies the enthusiasm in the field at the time... Back then, cloning a web page's layout & functions - wasn't availible, and MOOCs were the campaign for affordable education
I don't think it's particularly important.
It would be nice to take a time machine back in time and stop this piece of shit from hurting humanity
Nothing he has done could be considered “important” whatsoever
I undersand why he added a Like button on facebook
😂😂😂😂
Like I know right
🤣🤣
Awesome 😂
looooool
He was 21 during this presentation!
He’s incredibly insightful from both a technical and business standpoint here. If you met someone this young with this much knowledge on distributed systems even today you’d be shocked. Not to mention all the great points he brought up about where technology was headed (e.g. renting servers and cloud computing paradigm).
this is basic for highschoolers now, idk what you mean
He sounds surprisingly dumb actually.
@@JoshOdhiambo basic for high schoolers??🤣😂🤣🤣😂, I j left high school 6 months ago in may, I can tell u rn….👀, no one Including me, knows a thing about wtf mark is sayin in this vid, at least rn I’m trying to learn but bro, don’t underestimate the current gen, they don’t give a fuck abt building an empire, they stuck.
@@JoshOdhiambo fr? Maintaining redundancy requires consensus algorithms like Paxos. I think most of the undergraduates have no clue abt what Raft, Paxos or MVCC is rn.
@@JoshOdhiambo bullshit. tell me one school with this much cs in their correculum. but then again, youtube comments... full of pretenders.
Did he just start his lecture by saying "Yo"?

thx man
I’m actually glad I clicked on this video. Lot of useful information to anyone who is interested in carving there own way in the tech world.
👍
Several thoughts
1. His communication skills and intelligence at the age of 21 is off of the charts.
2. He clearly saw the greatness in Google and Amazon back in 2005.
3. He was very open in his lecture here. He was not holding any information back.
4. If you could go back to 2005, what questions would you ask him?
5. These Harvard students asked some very high quality questions back in 2005.
These are 5 thoughts
I would've asked him how he plans to scale the system, but i already know the answer now
@@Alex-wn8qh not too sure about the first one
@@Alex-wn8qh your mom a thought
@@PabloDiaz-lm2it true, lmao. Mark kept saying ‘like’ and took forever to get to the point of what he was trying to say.
Watching this in 2021 is fascinating. I just played the whole thing while editing a video. Seems like a nice guy with good ideas who is trying hard.
wait why is this suddenly being recommended to all?
Love your channel, if you ever come to Utah I’ll take you to a soccer game
Yeah, I know right? He should start a tech company or something.
I believe people stop seeing the human behind a person once he becomes that rich and exposed to the public. I'm pretty sure he's still somebody with good ideas it's just that it's hard to pull them off at such a scale. No matter what Facebook does it will reflect back on him and thus there will always be more bad than good PR about him.
Brainwashed ^^
I love when he talks about the "lawyer" issues... at the time we didn't really know what he was talking about, but now looking back... wow
Here in 2023. Thank you so much fir the person who filmed❤
He actually sounds human. Eventually he was replaced with a robot
Reptilian
The more intelligent one becomes, the less emotionally oriented one appears to others. That doesn’t mean he is not human. It just means he doesn’t have the emotional intelligence of an ape.
He said he was human. Seems this is from his transition
Flow Ryan but he is implying Zuckerberg is currently less human or not even at all human nowadays.
@@logusgraphics exactly. Now he is a robot
Harvard: "Mark Zuckerburg is a good influence"
Mark: "This is like the first times I have been to a lecture at Harvard..."
Regardless of being a lizard, that was a good joke
Good influence for stealing data and selling it to who know? Not mark. Just sell the data
“Maybe some of you guys will come out of this thinking that taking CS or engineering stuff at Harvard is actually sort of useful” lmao
Listening to what he says, he clearly knew what he was talking about and was probably ahead of the curve. Why waste time in pointless lectures when you can be innovating.
Harvard never thought that lmao
It is interesting to observe everywhere so much time. Such performances inspire a young computer science student like me.😊
The part of the video where he mentioned how much work goes into open-sourcing software gave me a new appreciation for github.
It's crazy how fast it all happened. I started college in 2003 and I believe I made a Facebook account in 2004 when they added my university. You could go in and add your specific courses and use it to easily contact people in your classes. Just a year later Zuckerberg is giving lectures? Currently I've disagreed so much with the company's actions that I've since deleted my account, but I still find it amazing how quickly Facebook took over the world.
I wouldn't say amazing, but terrifying since it only got this big because of CIA's money trough In-Q-Tel. So it's just been an spying scam for so long
It’s almost like a plan is unfolding
Once they went public, and really accelerated monetization efforts, the company really went from benign to malignant.
And now what do you think of Meta?

For each technology or technique, he was talking, He mentioned " I don't know if you guys have used it". Just shows how he was ahead in the college days.
Professor: Here's a great influence in computer science, creator of an already popular social platform. He will be lecturing you today
Mark: Yo
ngl when he opened with "yo!" i was like..."alright. i might work for this guy if he ever becomes big."
42(1) likes lol
He was pretending so hard to be a human
🤣🤣🤣
The professor should of just said "this man stole ideas from his classmates and now is profiting off of it."
Unbelievable how this was recorded for all of us to view 15 years later...
Yeah its kinda hard to think!
What about it?
Harvard and many Universities record most of their lectures. Espessially guest lectures.
Why is that unbelievable? There was cameras in the 1800's too. Mark just happened to be successful. I'm pretty sure there's 100's of videos of those who 'failed'.
What's so unbelievable about it?
who in 2024 watching this? this video is gold, such an inspiration for me :)
he is talking about things that were almost non existent back then but now these are fairly common
now he talks about metaverse and the next phase of the internet, truly a visionary

That philosophy backfired a bit.
I think this is why Facebook is now declining... they added whole new extra features without caring of the end result... Facebook is no as interesting as it was before.
@@nikhilsati and thats why came up with instagram, as the backup to catch up on the wave. hes the genius no doubt
He is 21 years old in this video.

One year later, at the age of 23 years old, he became a BILLIONAIRE!

call him an asshole you probably have or had a Facebook account. Get a life you sheep@thomas jacobs
Came here after the announcement of CS2, didn't realize its already CS50 out there
Watching this video in 2023, gives you goosebumps with the fact that how enormously the tech industry has grown in the past few years. Mark talking about renting servers in room that's a history for newer generations now, given we have cloud now.
The data "cloud" is still hosted on physical servers.
😂 The professor introducing Mark must feel very silly now. “Social media network or something” 😂
Actually no, that pretty much sums up Facebook today. It’s something - is it a publisher, advertiser, ad clear house?
Exactly what I was thinking... He clearly didn't believe that social NETWORKS would become a THING 😂😂😂
Trendee Prod Why did he invite him to his class then? 🧐
@@samanshp probably out of curiosity 😂
Professor : "oh yeah sure this kid is doing this "THING" let's invite him and see what it is all about 😏"
You think researchers care about these silly industrial things like Facebook?
They don't. Their work is infinitely more difficult and interesting.
This guy looks very smart, he should look into entrepreneurship
dnam82 lol 😂
Lol
funny and original comment
@@gnx10111 sheeeeeeeesh, what a nerd
Well he is Jewish so has the advantage to be 1
Seeing Mark talking about PHP and the connection that usually does with Apache Xampp to a MySQL database, 17 years ago is just amazing mate
it's amazing to watch this video after 8 years, just waaw
The interesting thing is that in this video he's like just 21 years old, but talks with an experience of a senior software engineer. I'm amazed of how well he knows the system, and also, how well he managed to fix the problems, and do bear in mind that it's like 2004, where internet data wasn't that available... with most of the problems they've battled... it's awesome.... no wonder he went with Facebook where he went... he definitely was in charge of the situation!
It's more like a software manager or software salesman I'd say, albeit a very well read manager or salesman. This is pretty high level, it's not that technical. But maybe that was intentional.
It’s actually almost 2006 In the video. He was on his way to get with Sean Parker and raise hundreds of millions in founding
That's why he built fb lol
He's an incredibly smart dude, but also an asshole. Guess it comes with being a robot.
@@ExtraordinaryFate go play sonic dude
15:02 - small people have significant leverage.
22:31 - don't be just too careful; it's more useful to make things happen and then apologize later.
24:51 - surround yourself with smart people.
thanks for this one!
i mean the second one is true in a way, if you ask for permission and get denied then nothing new will ever change. easier to ask for forgiveness than beg for permission. obviously that doesnt apply to him now
@@clementyau7192 hey, if it wasn't for the slaves we wouldn't have discovered the world. We just apologized for it after.
Funny, I was reading this particular comments, at the point the video got to that particular part, where mark made the statement.
2nd statemtent makes a lot of sense if you view from a dev's perspective instead of CEO
The contrast between this old lecture and his recent stuff with the meta verse is fascinating. Two completely different people.
This Mark guy seems capable. I look forward to observing his career as he gets into tech.
he seems extremely intelligent and aware of what he was doing even at such a young age. he was not just a CS nerd with a lucky idea, he had and still have deep understanding and instinct on how to make a company work, how to manage and organize a business. No surprise he became who he is now.
But I bet he doesn’t know how to manage his pointers

wtf I thought for sure this was a guest lecture series type of elective and thats why it was empty. Nope, CS50 is their intro to CS lol fukkin scrubs
i would say mark is the most underrated CEO, while he is really technically sound and also have extensive understanding of the business side of product, quite a rare combination imo.
not in tech these days, you heard of elon musk?
@@RazorIance have you failed to fathom the essence of what i have just said there, or you just want to disapprove everything that doesn't seem suiting for your inferior mind?
@romelbdp haha that was such a good reply, he couldn't say anything back.
Protip for this talk: turn on UA-cam Captions and you can read people's questions.
Ironically it's the only class that isn't spending time on Facebook.
+flatline7310 Lol that's so funny I actually had to take the time out of my busy day to write this comment.
flatline7310 they are looking at Facebook itself
flatline7310 software development weren’t hot back then
Uh I was a freshman at the time . Facebook was pretty popular at my university at the the time. I didn’t have a smartphone or the app at the time though
They are doing a debug session on Facebook. That’s why
Back in 2005 he was a guest speaker for 10 students, and now this lecture has been watched by more than 2.4 million users! I think the lesson here is to never feel discouraged by a small audience and for sharing your knowledge. You never know who, where and what can you reach. Great video to watch!
Thoughts? Agree?
an awful choice for a role model
this guy sucks
@@sunsetman22 maybe back in the days, nowadays not such a good role model when you actually find out what he’s doing behind the scene when it comes to digital privacy and trust. Add to the fact that his social media platform became as shit and toxic as Twitter, you could say he created the deadly sins of modern times.
Given that Facebook is amongst the handful of most significant entities of the 21st century so far, perhaps it's more significant that this video has not had at least 250 million views. I presume the answer is that the same video can be accessed on many other sites.
I have watched this lecture 8-10 times over the past five years, yet it always feels fresh to me. It doesn't seem like the 2005 lecture where he discussed interesting things at that time.
Helped you in your career?
It's amazing, this feels like an alternate reality. Who knew back then that this guy would become who he is now.

Coz most of the people were busy building cool things in their dorm rooms. Those who build things are rarely seen in events. Just like Mark, he too used to skip classes and events.
what a troll lmao
this video is from 2005, maybe a lot of people didn't even know what facebook was
You're talking out of your butt. The internet was vastly popular in the year 2005 so your comment is irrelevant.
As soon as he said "Yo" I looked at the comment section
Hahahaha
same tf ;LOL
Haahhahaha i did the same
This lecture is amazing
"This is one of the first times ive been to a lecture at harvard" love this
The concepts he talked about are normal today but advanced CS topics at that time like microarchitecture, distributed systems, load balancing, caching layer, etc that big tech were just figuring out. If I was a first or even second year CS student this would flew over my head. But I’m amazed the students were asking some very good questions.
Agree, Im almost at the end of my CS degree and still had some stuff fly over my head
@@adamdubsky1105 Don't worry that's normal. That's because most concepts taught in school cannot be easily fit into a hands on project that fit into a single semester. Thus the hands on portion barely scratch the surface. Once you go to work and see them in practice everything will click into place.
Humble beginnings. Saying facebook is "whatever you wanna call it". 16 years later its a monster.
It was so new at that time, that there wasn't a definition for it. Right now we call them "web apps".
The Zucc AI became corrupted and went rogue
I thought it was gonna be a class of clt + C and clt + V, but he genuinely taught something
The most important thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.
That's so true. but if i may ask, do you trade all by yourself?

Yeah, intelligent enough to become a billionaire by selling your data...
@@sergiopepe2210 well sounds like an intelligent thing to do.
@danny supersell good save 😅
You brought it up
I think the craziest thing, to me, about this lecture is even a year into Facebook and he's still talking about outrageous numbers for the website. 6 million users, 100 million pageviews a day with 30-50 SQL queries on just profile pages alone - it's fascinating to look at Facebook's positioning today and still understand that, statistically, there *was* exponential growth between then and now, but that even in the beginning they were working with pretty serious numbers.
Graph of a surface given by z = f(x, y) = −(x² + y²) + 4. The global maximum at (x, y, z) = (0, 0, 4) is indicated by a blue dot.
How amazing it could be if Mark comes in 2022 with a new update of this lecture, enhanced with his 17 y experience in technology, business and senators
Yes! It would be perfect if it was advertised really low-key, like "web-site developer discusses his product", so only 15 people turn up again - of course he would have cameras recording from all angles for later viewing.
he wouldnt be as open as this video probably
Ans senators lol
we could learn about how he ruined his entire business in a single year
"please put on your VR headsets, this is a META lecture, thank you.. Hello? Where is everyone?"
I don’t know anything about CS or even plan to learn it, but I watched this lecture as a business major and I still feel like I got so much insight on entrepreneurship.

Idiot business majors think that every lucky guy that gets rich and has generic platitudes has "insights".
@@fictionisfake4280 Luck definitely plays a part but you can't deny that Facebook has not only remained relevant, but above the competition since its inception and Mark has definitely been key to their continued success.

this and the steve jobs lecture at a business school are just great
One of the most influential people in human history, being awkward as hell and genuine. Glad to see it
He was not awkward here just regular dude giving a presentation. _Now_ he is awkward.
He wasn’t awkward at all, he’s awkward now because he’s not being genuine
He was not at all awkward, he was confident as hell. Just look at the part where he loses his thread and consults his notes in silence for 20 seconds. The paper did not shake at all.
@@ShaferHart he's not awkward here because here, he was just a knowledgable man sharing what he learned in the process of making an innocent social media application.
now, he knows his app is a shitty cesspool of poor censorship and blatant data theft, and can't present himself innocently in public. he has no choice but to be awkward in public.
@@charleswhite758 at the time he was worth more then ten millions of dollars of course he don’t shakes
“They started off trying to make something cool not trying to make a company” real spill
Also a great way to burn out creating useless things that only you think are cool. These days he doesn’t invest in a business unless it has an Amazon-like obsession with customers.

That's actually deep.
I feel like the audiance doesn't really know this guy that much... If they only knew what was gonna happen in the years following
Tangent Theta Are you kidding me who ever said he was a great programmer, a genius......
he is a rich man.......you all watch too many movies, he's a good programmer, sub par compared to his peers then and now.... Dustin M. is the person that you're thinking of.... wow its so crazy....but expected even if you saw the movie, where would you obtain hes a great programmer....
anyway i am not trying to bash him, if i was to sum him up in a phrase I would say....
"he has incredible timing"
as a programmer I would rate him on a scale from 1-10 a (4)
you want to know a great programmer check out my old professor from Harvard David Malan... cs.harvard.edu/malan/cv/malan.pdf
+Tangent Theta Well if you ask from anyone, why do they use facebook, probably nobody is going to answer: "Because their database management is great".
Technical details are of course important part, but it's just one part among many other important things. Often a technically better solution does not get people's attention and trust.
I think about how certain social medias get popular, it's a lot like a snowball effect. People join because their friends are in there.
+Dylan Barton Yes probably they don't. Video was recorded in 2005.
+wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20 This is a COMPUTER SCIENCE class. People are there because they think of stuff like "database scaleability."
Erebus Yes of course it is, but the discussion above was about social networks and which of them got popular . . . :) And that is not only about computer science, it has very much to do with other things too.
I understand the point. In nowadays many of these things have been already solved because we have already technology available but back in 2005 where just relational databases were available it was almost impossible to solve problems like Mark was talking about.
You can see how business savvy, and how not just architecture wise but business culture wise, built a solid foundation that can scale with the business. That's the secret sauce.
What’s strange is he sounded fairly normal here. Seems like his robotic demeanor came later
The elite bruh, they conquer 'em all.
He's worried about every word he says will get scrutinized by media and critics as he represents one of the largest tech companies in the world now. People truly hate the rich.
when your daily decisions affect a couple billion dollars i bet that comes immediately
Downsides of being a face of a corperate. You loose your own identity to the outside world and have to be carefull with what you say and do
Idk man. He’s got a lot on his conscience. Facebook has exploited and demonstrated evil in this world unfathomable to sane individuals. He’s seen a lot, and pays people a fuck ton of money to sit through the trauma of witnessing and filtering out all the most messed up content that gets reported. Include litigation issues he’s faced with left and right, and the kind of lobbying people are trying to do with him *always*. All the while continuing to pursue revolutionary tech (meta. The idea must’ve been in his mind since this video.) it’s a lot. I’d lose my humanity too, or at least, it would be at the bottom of my list of concerns. But hey that’s not to say I’d be surprised if he came out as a reptile or robot or some shit later lmao.
22:10 "amazon was a little more calculated ..." even Zuck knew Jeff was an evil mastermind compared to all these other tech startups . . .
That’s why he said it was more “calculated” not complicated lmao
He meant that in a positive way.. i think he was trying to say how visionary bezos was
For the record, I was enrolled at the Univ. of Texas at Arlington in 2008. At that time, no one was talking about (or using) Facebook that I knew.
The people that decided not to show up that day....oooof. No one will ever believe their story about how they decided to skip their CS50 class that day and it's hilarious.
everyone will believe their story they went to harvard
@John Worden No, not really. There are a lot of people that have gone to Harvard. I personally know 2 people that graduated from Harvard and have a friend that did his fellowship in medical bioscience at Harvard. So, a lot of people have been to Harvard, but not everyone was in a lecture with Mark Zuckerberg.
is mark zuccerberg that special?
@@tonyisnotdead His Political Influence is well above That of an average Harvard student, so is the Magnitude of his company. He might not be the Person anyone with a sound mind "aspires" to become. He had a lot of luck and "right place right Time Moments so as a Human beeing you might not Consider him that special. His Impact, The Political Power and the magnitude of the effect his actions had to this Planet are far avove average so yes: he is that special
41:00 "If people feel like their information isn't private, then that screws us in the long term." LOL
Famous last words
wow you actually sat through this ?
Cringed at that part. Also the lack of detail and awkwardness of the question "How did you come up with the idea for facebook?"
It seems his sentiments on that changed over time.
@@markwashington7731 we just built different bro
this is insane that only like 15 people showed up to hear advice from Mark Zuckerburg, if he were to do something like this today an entire football stadium would be filled.
facebook was barely in the mainstream at this point, if at all. it was a niche website in use in universities and colleges. not really insane if you think about it. everything starts somewhere. oh wait, Gen Z thinks everything began with them.
Would the whole school show up? Sure, but a football stadium to hear a computer science lecture? I don't know. Definitely would be a turn out, but no where near that crazy.
@@FlockofSmeagles everyone and their mom wants to go into computer science now
@@ngndnd Mm, computer science is appealing to most people. I'll give you that. At least up to a point. A lot of people see the aesthetic of programming. Once they realize that it's mostly trudging through data day in and day out. They skate on it. I still doubt that a football stadiums worth of people would show up to a computer science lecture.
@@FlockofSmeagles that’s true, i’m in my first year of cs and after the first algebra exam we had, almost everyone dropped out
wow. amazing
Man u still scamming
this was an amazing lecture !
I see. People back in 2005 loved to sit in the middle rows too. This tradition carries on today
No one:
UA-cam algorithm: Here watch Mark Zuckerberg giving a lecture about CS for over 10 years ago
it really be like that
I watched the social network last night (on chrome). So Google knew. And they won, I clicked on this video obviously
Shit I’m hip, can’t say Facebook aloud cause google be listening to you
actually, 15 years ago
xD
even thou im in my 10years software dev, i feel like 2005 Mark is more experience than me today.
from giving lecture in Harvard to literally fighting richest man in an MMA ring
and in Rome like gladiator
At the time of this lecture, Facebook had raised about $12 million in capital and was already valued at $150 million. Mark held nearly 50% of the shares. So he was coming back to school a year after founding Facebook, with a net worth of tens of millions of dollars. And based on how he presented himself in this lecture, you can see he was worth every penny and more. Having a great idea (or stealing one) is step one, but that idea doesn't turn into a trillion dollar company without the key people being damn smart and very strategic. Kudos to Mr. Zuckerberg.
Very humble guy, I would have turned up in a helicopter so the whole college noticed, just to show off my success. lol.
@@charleswhite758 lol
Exactly, everyone has ideas...an idea holds no value in itself, the value is in execution
Well said.
He was worth millions of dollars on paper only though. The company was making losses. So let's say if he quits, the company could easily turn to zero.
"AS TECHNOLOGY BECOMES MORE GENERIC AND LESS EXPENSIVE, THE LEVERAGE POINT BECOMES MORE IN PEOPLE." - I couldn't agree more on this one.
I thought I was the only one who got that point. And the one about doing things then apologizing later (privacy issues).
What does that mean? Please elaborate
I think about streamers. Access to stream gear has become easier and streaming is oversaturated. Early adapters who were able to afford gear and have the knowledge on how to did well. Now, technology is more generic and less expensive. You’ve now got to have something that separates you from the rest. Leverage
@@aftabansari3845 I think something like how these days micro-transactions make more money than paid games
@@aftabansari3845 Yeah, I don't get it either. A good proverb needs to be more obvious.
"I have a lawyer working for me full-time" -- What a hell of an understatement this turned out to be
watching it at the same age as Mark was at this point... lets see where the future takes.
I like how he continually fishes for "CS questions", but seems more than happy to give genuine responses to whatever anyone wants to ask.
He was possibly in danger of giving away far too much sensitive info about his business model.
"Congressman!" "Congresswoman!" "Senator!" hits different now
"Make things happen, appologize later"
He means stupid by senator

I would immediately hire this brilliant young man! :D
