Bill Gates reflects, in detail, on his early programming career. From a 2010 interview with the Academy of Achievement.
The media makes it seem like he just dropped out and became a billionaire. I like hearing about the whole background and story.
It's worse, he went from dumpster diving to world richest man.
I feel like people want to become rich and famous without doing all the work that comes with it
seems like he probably already had his 10,000 hours in before he hit mid 20s and so much exposure to the early Tech world since he was 16+... Yeah this is not your typical college dropout.
Well, yes, it’s called spreading communism.It’s what the media has done since its inception. Why do you think they hate Trump? Or Howard Schulz? Success is unforgivable in this world. You can be anything but successful.
Its what happens you steal software and ideas from John George Kemeny
This is one of the few videos where bill gates talks about programming rather than philanthropy. Enjoyed it.
I agree with your priorities.
@@alexanderscott2456 6:17 he bruteforced his way into Jeffrey Epstein's virgins
Hearing about Bill Gates writing normal applications in his early career is inspiring. He wasn't JUST a genius who wrote machine code and built Windows on his first day as a software developer. He went through the same grimy steps as the rest of us.
Especially when his mom (who happened to sit on the IBM board) managed to get him the interview that lead to the MS-DOS contract, she also presented him to Warren Buffet. I am poor and stupid so the Steve Jobs story is more relatable to me than Gate's.
That's what he wants you to think. In reality he bought some nerd's code (DOS) and used it to start his business.
@@alainportant6412 !1aa
He did not write windows. He hired the guys from Xerox that wrote the drop down menus in which --Steve Jobs stole to make the Mac. At least Steve Jobs guys figured it out on their own Bill Gates just hired the OG from Xerox and the wrote it on top of DOS.
@@alainportant6412 jobs was an ahole but karma got him
man, not only did he have to learn how to make a payroll system at 15 but he also had to learn how taxes worked at multiple levels to make the system work as needed. that's some crazy stuff
imagine being there in 1971 and seeing the first microchip ad. and KNOWING how significant it would be. mindblowing.
Yeah working microprocessors at 15 with some years preciously careeer...even he when he stated that didn’t believed it and it’s obvious if you look him.Microprocessors from intel came in 1971 which means you couldn’t have at least in that system all the required information in order to use it and especially a kid under 15 as he said.
everytime he says "Paul Allen" I want to see his business card for some reason
Hopefully plastic covers and axe are ready
I bet you his card has a subtle off-white coloring, with a tasteful thickness. Oh my God, it probably even has a watermark…
paul allen i killed paul allen with an axe to the face his body his dissolving in Hells kitchen
haha yes
@Dave Hardy reference is to the "business card" scene from the movie American Psycho
Remember, dropping out of school/college only works if you have brains.
And good connections that allow your brains to be recognised properly
Brains,... and the will to succeed, no matter what. I always hate how many people see Bill Gates as this overnight millionaire who basically got lucky with Windows. It couldn't be farther from the truth. Yes, Microsoft made him a lot of money but he is super-smart and worked his ass off day and night to get where he is.
@@thomas_xsg but don't forget that he did steal the dirty operating system.>> dos kzhead.info/sun/pqiCe5F7bZZ9nqs/bejne.html
@@13thbiosphere thanks for sharing, very interesting. It just goes to show that working hard and having a great idea is not enough. It takes business sense to seize the opportunity and get rich from it. Gates understood that.
@Markus Allen and your proof of this conspiracy theory is... what exactly?
School: “We need to create something called software.” Bill Gates: “Hold my chocolate milk!”
more like "Don't worry. Daddy's here."
For the slaves who love worshipping their gods: He invented computers, he invented internet, he invented everything, even my life. Poor slaves.
@@shubhamchandra9258 lol true
Bill should take a look at the youtube recommendation algorithm. It's generally is shit but once in a while, it throws up gems like this.
Recommender systems, do a quick search on that, and you’ll notice that the algorithm has nothing to do with pre-determined programming instructions, but rather fully influenced by your watch history, likes and comments. In other words, this machine learning algorithm is learning from your behavior on KZhead. Do an experiment if you will: keep watching videos about one or a few number of topics, and you’ll start seeing shift in recommendations toward that topic or related ones. Simple as that
Won't happen! KZhead is owned by Google, deadly rival of Microsoft.
@@dukenukem5768 I mean... Google has published a few publically available research papers on the topic. (Newer DL based approaches.)
Microsoft doesn't own KZhead lmao
How does a algorithm searching for a gem in a sea of shit will find more gems than shit? The perpetual problem. Discernment across vast oceans of useless crap.
His story needs to be made into a movie... just incredible.
There's a Bill Gates Docuseries on Netflix
He’s a POS, he’s a pedophile and a murderer
Globalist attempts genocide using computers and vaxx is the sum of the plot of his story Not very appealing Think ive seen it before
yeah they should make a movie on it i would excited to watch it
Actually he didn't create windows, it was created by his friend. And it was purchased by him , because IBM was needed operating system on those days.thz is fact ,. finally the same purchased software became windows 😁
Bill Gates is the alpha nerd.

@@Kauffman578 Bill Gates paid a crackhead to do it then never spoke of it again.. lol
RIP
Very interesting. Success born from a passion. As a kid he was working on projects most developers don’t even manage as adults. So at an early age he created a high level understanding of negotiation, project management, coding, what value automation adds to daily corporate life and how to implement it. A lot of times you see these parents going crazy having kids in a million activities and they miss what the kid was really interested in. Looks like he was encouraged and coach very early on to follow his passion.
yea imagine if bill gates mom forced him to do some stupid activity like to play the saxaphone or piano instead of negotiating all these contracts with the software.
I can't write 10 lines without StackOverflow and these guys wrote a payroll software in 80's.
I'm so dumb that it often takes me multiple reads and tweaks just to be able to _understand_ many of those StackOverflow solutions. One can feel like a Salieri surrounded by Mozarts.
@@kdub1242 Same here mate, funny thing is I am not even a teenager I am 26 with 4 years experience in development still dumb as fuck. I wish I could do something else but I suck even more in everything else.
By the time goes you will always think that why I can't understand that solution and why it's not working, well the answer it's not that u dumb, it's because of how you didn't read the given solution in right direction. And always if you something misunderstandi, youtube is the one who can give a hope to be more successful than school.
I spent 5 years of coding in c++ and a lot of time it's just mistake by mistake never getting right code to finish the solution, but today literally I can do every solution in c++, because of my mistakes. More mistakes you make more dumb you feel, but in reality more mistakes you done more information you get. Everything is easy when you do a lot of mistakes. (:
I wrote a payroll software 4 years ago in 2 months for the UK HMRC thingy without the knowledge of English and in a programming language I knew nothing about. Also covered with tests and everything. It's not that magic as it seems but they were 15 back then. I remember writing software that helps writing poems ( so I can pick up girls) when I was 15 in Delphi.
I wish he named the phenomenal programmer that picked apart his work in a very constructive way.

@@cardcode8345 this is partially true - now - Gates learnt on an old computer that was time shared. He didn't have a computer at home, and he didn't have access to anything you recognise as a PC. So yeah, the reason being rich helped, was that he could go to a school with a computer - and he worked out a way to get access to the time shared computer system (I think he hacked it or found a bug). So yeah - being rich helped... But it kinda leaves out the whole thing that he still had to learn how to program on systems that are infinitely less intuitive to what we are used to now, with no internet. He had to put the time in and to intuit the answers. He still deserves credit - it's not like all the other rich kids at his school also became amazing programmers.they didn't.
@@cardcode8345 the definition of jealous lol
@@cardcode8345 nah. just cause you're born into a rich family doesn't been shit. he could easily have become a spoilt rich kid and yet he was blessed with a smart brain and utilized it's capabilities. you don't know what you're talking about. you seem bitter as hell man

Well this project is over, let's get rid of him 😂
Remember he told at age 13-17 he started programming. I am 27 now, when I was 13 I had never seen one until I started engineering at age 19. That's sad about us that when we start exploring, we don't have resources, but definitely I will make sure my kids gets all the facilities which I didn't had during my childhood days.
Not necessarily the resources, like the other person said.. books were always available but in this life not everyone can be super smart, ambitious, skillful, etc. specially at an early age.. so I believe Destiny comes into play with our lives and at this point all we can do is provide our kids the support/advice that we never had.
I started programming when I was 14. I didn't even have access to a computer. I basically did my brothers homework.
Same here. Quite unfortunate we weren't exposed to these at the very young age.
He didn't have a computer at home either :) There's a big difference between waiting for an opportunity to come around and going stalking opportunities through dark alleys.
@@LuaanTi exactly! Gates succeeded not because he HAD computers, but because he actively seek those opportunities like no tomorrow.
It's really amazing hearing his story. I was so interested in programming during age 13-17, and I volunteered to make about 3 programs each taking over 1 month to make (1 was a cross words games, 2 were function graphics drawing software) under the goal that people from the government would notice it and maybe give me a hand in pursuing a career in programming. But being Syrian in Saudia Arabia. They literally did not care. The promised they would come, and came to see it (sent 2 people who just said good job) then promised me to show this to people would would appreciate it and help. But after over a year of waiting. I finished high-school and left for collage. I ended up working online for a nice guy, and after awhile he left due to my inexperience with mistakes and bugs. that demoralized me, and I found not much people to explain some of the more complex stuff. They came to the school with an entire delegation of people, and made a big celebration with big gifts and stuff. Yet that was for the Football team, who didn't win anything, they just won in the school contest. No I hardly have any interest in programming anymore. But I learned a lot on my own. Hopefully would find sometime to go back to it. Edit: I just felt that I could share this here. Thank you for reading if you did.
Awesome MR GxxG it was very inspiring man👏👏👏👏👏
pursue it again man
@@stannisbarracuda5693 Now I have work + collage. I can't really find much time. But I still work on a fun 'Robots fight' project I started along time ago. only on vacations tho.
i really hope i dont end up like you i dont want to leave coding
im in the same situation i dont even have a pc i learned coding on qpython and later when i got a net connection i started using kaggle and collab from my phone i have made some applications such as machine translation, sentiment analysis , text generation and question answering systems and tried to replicate a few papers but apparently nobody gives a shit
i really like that Bill Gates shares his memories with us, it's fun to hear about and there is at lot to learn. I got into IT by accident and i have allways loved the work and all the fun and surprises. Yes you have to put in hard work, but it is rewarding too....not in money allways but in fun memories.
A reason I'd get into any coding is the funny things you can run into during creating a project. Especially with web or game development, So many funny things can happen and you can have lots of fun working on projects when you least expect it.
And my programming skills are basically "Hello World"
@Peter Lustig He is a programmer and still writes programs.
@Peter Lustig he.. is.. tho..
@Peter Lustig FYI Gates made a bet with Paul Allen back in the day on who could write the shortest bootloader for the MITS Altair hardware. They wrote in 8080 machine language. Gates won.

If he saw this he'd answer that question for you for sure but the odds of him seeing are about none!
You ain’t injecting me with anything mister!
Some of us have seen Accidental Empires and we know Bill Gates had no vision to how important DOS would be to Microsoft. He turned down IBM two times and put "Big Blue" in touch with the developer of CP/M to build an OS for their PC. When IBM came calling a third time, Microsoft didn't build an OS for IBM; they purchased QDOS renamed it 86-DOS and licensed it to IBM where it became PC DOS 1.0.
Sure he bought DOS but I think it is silly to believe everything that happened after that point was accidental.
Thanks, Bill. A valuable story to hear.
0:29 "How can you make it fast, how can you make it small".... Bill, go back, something went wrong with Windows.

Nice comment.
Uninstalling and pausing the bloatware makes windows 10 fairly fast. The need to increase profits is where it went wrong, but still the best operating system out
@@panblacksolutions only if you ignore how much of a threat linux is to windows.
DR Dos was kicking MS's ass with Dos so it went downhill for MS when they made Windows 95 that combines the Windows GUI and the Dos under layer. ( started the problems for Windows in general ) It has been bloated ever since. I wish I had been born 5-7 years earlier, I was all in to computers in the early 80's, just a few years late to the game.
Studying Computer Science in his time was REALLY HARD there was no internet and you have to go to the library and besides that, the Assembly language was in early-stage you have to translate it in human-readable I took Assembly before it was full of codes that are not human-readable. Image his life back then how tough learning programming was! awful indeed, trial and error
assembly is not hard it is actually fairly simple. you just need to memorizing the various instructions, addressing modes, have some knowledge about the CPU and its registers.it is tedious work but by no means "really hard". stop talking out off your ass
It can be said, there was less distractions
I have 18 years of IT experience . I heard with rapt attention. I wanted to see where is missed. Now i know it was Interest in tech, Persistence, Programming and outlook not for money but towards learning .
About fixging product new i use unstill around 1 year ago . and old .3d i draw it around 6 or 7 year ago . what do you think .it weasting my time .
Lesson to learn from this is that having an experienced person critique your work will advance your ability way more than any other learning resource.
True, watched an artist talk about having other artists critique his paintings and then going back to work on the weak points of his technique

This is wonderful first computer was DEC VMS for myself
This is great, showing the human side of himself who also came from humble beginnings. It makes me feel better that even he admits that he had superiors and wasn't just some unmatched god programmer.
Wow, he’s so much more brilliant and well off than I could’ve ever imagined at the same age.
Of cause he's a Genius. A Genius brain 🧠 works faster than a normal human brain; they learn to read in the earliest age, they wiser in many ways, etc. their iq is higher, too.
"got the source code of the operating system out of the garbage can" what a magical man
I dont believe
He got the DEC operating system out of a garbage can, That explains why MS DOS is a direct copy of the DEC operating system Tops 10.
Back in the day, all of the source code was available on microfiche. Most people didn't have fiche readers and they probably just threw it out, so I actually believe it is true that Bill got it from the trash. I read a lot of the VAX/VMS microfiche and learned a ton from it. I recall finding a problem in their YPDRIVER which caused VT220 terminals to crash in DMA mode. A BBS (Branch Bit Set) should have been a BBC (Branch Bit Clear), or vice versa. I patched the EXE and rebooted the operating system: problem solved. I reported it to DEC and they said it was really rare to get patches like this from end-users. Nice to know I was in good company with Bill and Paul. I guess I should have kept programming. By the way Windows NT (WNT) = VMS+1 (add one letter to V, M, and S to get W N T). Go look up Dave Cutler.
@@davevaebutuoy Mindblowing

He wasn't a good programmer, this is all exaggeration. Bill gates is good at BS, selling himself and making money, nothing else. Microsoft got rich because of dirty tricks, stealing other people code and luck. The only thing Gates is good at is making money by conning and stealing. Dishonest, stupid pig is what he is. All good programmers who know the real Microsoft story know this, but you won't read it anywhere because the only thing that's worshiped in America is money.

@khairuddin...my past time student, sirs on the way lead Microsoft company&negotiable with ibm also negotiable for laws pratice especially for publicity news....fomerly dbs&dba student from local college...
What was the tech stack?
At the time DEC-PDP computers and the Fortran programming language were quite popular. Bill talks about using BASIC, FORTRAN, LISP and PDP-10 assembler at school. Later on he also programmed in COBOL for Traf-O-Data on the CP/M operating system. americanhistory.si.edu/comphist/gates.htm#tc2 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates#Early_life
Back in high school when my teachers used to make me find the value of “x” I never understood why or what the purpose was but when I took a college class the teacher took the time to tell me “that’s the beauty of this it can mean anything” he then proceeded to give examples and next class I had was web design and it lead me on to have an interest in programming.
Back in those days programming was way more difficult than now.
Ummm yea no lol it was much easier than it is now. Sure we have libraries that help us with our code but algorithms have become so much more complex. In 1995 a CRUD program was top of the line stuff now CRUD programs are things I see in Computer Science 101
Born in 1956 age today 63 years old
GATES talking about how phenomenal he was in programming at 16 and here is me, can't even write a program to solve a fibonacci series at the age of 26 :p
All the information he knew were from books.
Remember Kent evans😭😢
BRO RIGHT LONG LIVE KENT EVANS
who?
Was it BASIC programming, for the school scheduling software?
In high school I didn't even have a computer.
I could listen to his whole life story. he is an inspiration to me and many other programmers.
Paul Allen did the real leg work for Atair BASIC. Not only did he have to write the assembly code, but he had to write the emulation software for the PDP-10 minicomputer which was used as a developer environment. Sure, Gates got good at BASIC but that's not a particularly challenging language, try it. This is not to say that Gates isn't an intelligent man but I do request reconsidering and looking a bit more deeply before considering him to be a top programer on the whole. Top business man, sure. That cannot be denied.
Bill is an inspiration to me. He along with Elon Musk are my role models.
Back in the day I was so fascinated with Bill Gates. This was in the late 90’s to mid 2000’s. When I was college my interest peaked. Now not so much.
Most surprising to me was that programing was way harder to write these program back then. It was in Assembly. I’m baffled that people were able to do these things at all.
11:00 ~ where are those people, what became of them?
Probably ended up working for him or got some other high position because of their legendary skills.
1:23 this is why "You need experience before you can get experience" is a joke. Here Bill was, 15-16, and was able to do what adults couldn't really manage to do themselves.
I never heard that in my life.
Computer programming was so new at the time, there weren't comp Sci majors
And the in have to rerate with the bank coss i gonna test the money ba system.did you get idea.?
It is very nice to hear & see. Bill Gates speak about his younger years. Knowing he knew. How smart Mr Gates and his friends were at such a young age. Understanding himself and friends were coding better than any one else. 🙏👍❤️🤍💙💜 GREAT JOB!!!! 😊
I don't think I've ever heard his voice before
Instructions to get this into your recommendations...watch a couple shark tank videos, then Kevin O'Leary videos, then Mark Cuban videos, then wham you are into the billionaire recommendations...
I used to watch videos about poor people, but I've come up in the world, and now I only watch videos about billionaires.
we're literally listening to the history that shape the last 30 years of mankind. weow.
LITERALLY 30 YEARS OF HUMAN-KIND, DAMMN
Indeed. But his greatest moment was the shotgun in the trenchcoat Windows 95 "Doom" promotion!
45 years
I read about this in "Fire In The Valley" 2014
There are many problems with America, but what I love about it was the opportunity. There was a computer that Bill and his friends could use to do what they loved. But people were not going to just give them use of it. They needed to barter, negotiate and trade things for the use of it. If they were willing to put in the work, then they could achieve whatever they want.
Bill trained himself to be a businessman and negotiator, so these are his advantages than other programmers at his time. If anybody can learn computer programming but the one who knows business is destined to be successful, the rest will just be employees until they retire.
so, you're businessman which still needs to learn programming?
First he gave us windows, now he gave us corona.
It’s jaw dropping that’s this camera quality existed in 2010, no idea why we don’t see this quality often after a decade, I’m just flabbergasted.
I wish it was longer
All this without the internet, that we have today. Nowadays, to every challenge programmers face, they go to Stackoverflow.
Jules A to be fair, the programming languages have evolved A L O T since then. Many new complicated features that make things easier and faster have been added
Note guys those werent the times whre you could just copy errything off of stack overflow
I still have my Windows 95 install discs and my old pc I’m never getting arid of it I like Windows 95
I wonder if Bill still codes as a hobby in his spare time.
No
Doubt it
Bill tries to eliminate polio worldwide as a hobby in his spare time.
He probably dabbles in Javascript --- but he'd rather just hire his own army of programmers to do his bidding
Why do you think VB6 is still running on Windows 10?
Today's programming 60% git hub 20% why does my code not work?! 20℅ why does my code work?!
@@ohio yes he's one of people who invented OS so his coding kinda . . more complicated
@@kelvinxg6754 He bought an OS, tweaked it, then sold it to IBM.
It's so true
Nice to hear him talking about something he actually has an authority to talk about as opposed to vaccines.
I am surprised these companies would just go to two high school kids instead of asking McKinsey. Nowadays companies would go find consultants to solve intractable problems.
You can see in his face that he's so proud of what he did and how mad he made some people when he was younger 😄
@tiny5384 Ya good call. Telling the story how he saved the Day beating out the older guys Paul Allan and he did most of the work. I like how he takes credit for getting the contract too. Im sure his Lawyer dad had nothing to do with setting up the contract.
This guy is really smart, he should start a company or something idk
I need some motivation to study, yet i wonder whether this video will give me some motivation to study...
Am so delightful that Bill exist even if am not suppose to say but I like him so much to reflect onto my happiness with a gigantic heart of red!!!!!
Y’all seriously believe this guy is legit? His father was an extremely wealthy eugenics enthusiast lmao
And the father of one of the world’s richest men to date.
@@ooo8188 who’s that?
@@Jordan_99 who do you think? Have a guess
When he mentioned he was 15-16 during this, I was pretty astounded. But then I remembered, I too was pretty freaking good at programming when I was 16. In school, they had me and my good friend who was also skilled do programming tests separately from the others so that we wouldn't assist them. I had already made programs that I sold, one of them to a hospital. But 8 years later, even as I went to college (now graduating) and kept improving my skills, the grand total of money I made programming is still under $500. I can't get a programming job here in Serbia; like other well-paying jobs, it's a good old boys' gig and I don't have any good connections. I would prefer to work by myself anyway, I kind of like being the starving programmer working on my own projects and open source stuff. But a man's gotta eat...
Simply truthful and honest. Respect.💛
@Juan Really? I wish Paul Allan was there while he told the story of him taking over and fixing the problem and doing most of the work. Kinda like Ringo taking credit for writing most of the Beatles songs.
I wonder if he can tell a story how he got a deal with IBM, that would be interesting to understand.
I bet nobody has ever said this before about Bill Gates, but I think his tan looks great.
no homo
Can you do interview about his doctor career please.
You don't have to be a doctor to want better for humanity
Hello guys, tell me how to find Bill Geitz's personal channel and how can I send him a message so that he can read it, I would be grateful if anyone can tell me, with respect to you Rezvan?🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
First I thought he looked younger than before, his skin has improved. Then I saw the description it's from 2010.
Sadly he's looking kinda old now
10:50 We got Jobs
