  • The story of Alan Turing, father of modern computing. His journey as a young man and how he achieved what was thought at the time impossible, the decryption of the most complex German enigma machine.
    In private life Turing was hounded because of his sexuality. We hope we have done the incredible story of Alan Turing justice. Please let us know what you think below.

    @ShadowRider711 Рік тому +90

    Turing should have received _both_ an apology _and_ a pardon. This man saved countless lives and shortened The Second World War by, only god knows how many years. I remember sitting in my Grandparent's living room doing a history project for my class when I saw an article that the Queen had pardoned Alan Turing. I was only ten at the time yet I knew who Alan Turing was because of my interest in history, I picked up my phone searched for the article as I had been on a computer for the research, and ran to the backyard to show my Grandfather the article. He straight out said, "Well, that's a little late, but it's what should have happened years ago." Then he looked at me and said "Maybe one day you'll get to be the one to reveal how much of an impact this great man made on our world." then he smiled and ruffled my messy hair at the time and he led me to the house to watch the newest documentary on the Second World War.

      In india we believe guests are like gods and we tried to embrace people of all faith. The parsi community(remnants of the old mesopotamian empire after the original inhabitants were driven by uslamic crusaders) . We alwsys thought of being kind to foreigners, held them in equal regard and stupidly believed we can trust them. We believed that if we are accepting and nice to them, they would return us in favour
      Look what it did to us. One of the ancient civilizations on earth, we never tried our power to capture european lands while they were running butt baked and living in jungles.
      AND LOOK AT THE END RESULT. 800 YEARS OF PERSECUSION AND SLAVERY, COUNTLESS SLAUGHTERS, ENDLESS GENOCIDES AND OUR OWN POPULATION BEING STARVED WHILE EUROPEANS BEING FED ON IT IN A WAR WHICH WE HAD NO INTEREST IN FIGHTING
      SO YOU SEE MY FRIEND, KINDNESS IS A HABIT OF THE STUPID AND YAA, IT IS REGARDED AS A WEAKNESS.

    To be fair, an enigma codebook fell into British hands, recovered from a captured submarine. But no one except Turing could have figured it out.

    • @sol2544
      @sol2544 4 роки тому +203

      I was at a presentation by some government workers at a college, they worked on cybersecurity and did an explanation about the enigma machine (because it is kind of the same concept, it itself being cybersecurity of a sort)
      They explained that the enigma machine wasnt entirely secure because it was actually very easy to crack using Turing's machine, because the germans didnt produce new rotor designs on a regular basis.
      The machines he made basically tried to copy the layout of them, almost being an emulator of the enigma machine, emulating a new layout for every combination.
      Had the germans produced more rotors faster, bletchley park would need to create a brand new computer for every change to rotor designs.
      Because they didnt do that very often, although they did sometimes, his machine was able to crack an astoundingly large amount of messages.
      Probably the second easiest way they got messages was by old fashioned cryptology.
      Some messages started with EXACTLY the same phrase, or were the same phrase. Such as a U-boat captain saying "FOUND NOTHING" every single day that they didnt find a convoy. This was used to crack the code by simply finding out the rotor settings this way, mostly by running through what setting it would take to produce that message.
      While I do commend the sailors that got that codebook, and they certainly did help crack many messages that way, undoubtedly Turing's machines and Bletchley Park were almost certainly the most important source of message decryption.

      Doesn't do Alan a shite of good, does it? He put himself to death with a broken, hurt conscience.
      And to me, that is *the. absolute. WORST. thing.* to happen to a person or animal.
      When you die, you don't take anything physical with you. *However,* I firmly believe that you take _you_ with you. Your consciousness. Your personality. Your feelings. Your memories. And most importantly, your conscience and state of mind.
      I don't consider myself christian or whatever. But I do believe we all have a soul. A core whole, and the ultimate culmination of who we are. (What we are has nothing to do with it)
      I believe the key to leaving this world on a good note, or at all even, is to have a clear conscience at the time of destiny.
      And Alan Turing, bless him, did NOT have such a state of mind. So I'm pained by the knowledge that he is not at peace because of what his accursed country did to him as a token of their "grattitude."
      As far as I'm concerned, the only way their apologies are going to mean anything is if they bring Alan back from the dead and apologize to him then. Right all the ways they wrong him. Restore his clearance credentials and everything. And PRAY that he finds it within himself to forgive them.
      Untill then, as far as I'm concerned, anything they say or do on the matter is absolutely pointless and purposeless.
      If it doesn't make Alan feel any better, it doesn't make me feel any better. And it certainly doesn't make me want to do a damn thing to help this fucked up species. (Which i do have plans to do)

    I spent months doing a school project on Alan Turing. Usually I’m not a fan of research projects, I just find them quite boring, but this one was exeptional! His story is so interesting, and you’ll just keep on finiding more and more interesting facts about him, and his “journey”. Now actually about him, how England treated him after he basically, no he did save their’s and many other people’s lives is discusting and unfair. Although this was a long time ago, some people still do get discriminated like this today, even if it is rare. He was brilliant and cracked the German Enigma code. So, just because he was gay he wasn’t as “important” as straight people. I’m glad our world has gotten better on accepting people sexualitites today, if not, I’d be discusted of the earth people call “home”. This is just my opinion, and if you have one of your own, that could possibly be rude, or if I offended anyone in any type of way with anything I said, I apologize, none of the things I typed/said were meant to be rude, contridicting, or offensive.

      Senti77 the poles only broke one version of the code which was replaced after a month like every enigma code and was then useless. This doesn't take away from their achievement though as when the enigma code was first used no one knew how to crack it and was believed impossible. The poles gave a lot of hope to the UK to design machines and processes to decode it.
