1
00:00:00,170 --> 00:00:03,285
Isn't the history of
computers supper interesting.
2
00:00:03,285 --> 00:00:05,430
I love going back in
time and seeing how
3
00:00:05,430 --> 00:00:07,430
we got to this exciting
point in computing.
4
00:00:07,430 --> 00:00:09,060
You've already taken
the first few steps to
5
00:00:09,060 --> 00:00:11,130
building your foundational
knowledge of IT.
6
00:00:11,130 --> 00:00:12,510
Before we dive deeper,
7
00:00:12,510 --> 00:00:14,295
I'll just take a moment
to introduce myself.
8
00:00:14,295 --> 00:00:16,020
My name is Devan Sri-Tharan.
9
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:17,790
I've been working
in IT for 10 years.
10
00:00:17,790 --> 00:00:19,890
I'm a Corporate Operations
Engineer at Google,
11
00:00:19,890 --> 00:00:22,995
where I get to tackle challenging
and complex IT issues.
12
00:00:22,995 --> 00:00:24,870
Thinking back, my
first experience with
13
00:00:24,870 --> 00:00:26,940
tech began when I was
about nine years old.
14
00:00:26,940 --> 00:00:29,680
My dad brought home the
families first computer.
15
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:30,960
I remember my dad holding
16
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,330
a floppy disk and telling me
that there was a game on it.
17
00:00:33,330 --> 00:00:35,460
To my dad's amazement, I
somehow managed to copy
18
00:00:35,460 --> 00:00:38,095
the game from disk onto
the computer's hard drive.
19
00:00:38,095 --> 00:00:40,460
While it might seem like
a trivial task now,
20
00:00:40,460 --> 00:00:42,880
this device was just so
new to us back then.
21
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,090
Sure, I loved the different
games I could play
22
00:00:45,090 --> 00:00:47,690
but what I really loved
tinkering with the machine,
23
00:00:47,690 --> 00:00:49,670
trying to get it to do
what I want it to do.
24
00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:51,125
While that floppy disk in
25
00:00:51,125 --> 00:00:55,070
computer might have ignited
my passion for technology,
26
00:00:55,070 --> 00:00:57,350
was actually my first
few job experiences
27
00:00:57,350 --> 00:00:59,710
that really started to
shape my IT career.
28
00:00:59,710 --> 00:01:02,120
One was in retail
selling baby furniture
29
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,950
and the other was at a
postal store where I helped
30
00:01:03,950 --> 00:01:06,050
customers chip their packages
31
00:01:06,050 --> 00:01:07,970
and became the
one-person IT crew.
32
00:01:07,970 --> 00:01:09,260
It might sound all that
33
00:01:09,260 --> 00:01:11,180
working in retail
inspired my career,
34
00:01:11,180 --> 00:01:12,710
but I've realized I've really
35
00:01:12,710 --> 00:01:14,585
enjoyed communicating
with customers,
36
00:01:14,585 --> 00:01:17,730
trying to understand their
needs and offering a solution.
37
00:01:17,730 --> 00:01:20,210
My first experience working
directly in IT was in
38
00:01:20,210 --> 00:01:23,300
college as an IT support
specialist intern.
39
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,550
From there, I worked
as an IT consultant
40
00:01:25,550 --> 00:01:28,050
to decommission an
entire IT environment.
41
00:01:28,050 --> 00:01:29,540
This was my first
experience working
42
00:01:29,540 --> 00:01:31,430
directly with large
IT infrastructure
43
00:01:31,430 --> 00:01:32,990
and pushing myself outside
44
00:01:32,990 --> 00:01:34,820
my comfort level as
a college student.
45
00:01:34,820 --> 00:01:37,030
I bring up these few
jobs for a reason.
46
00:01:37,030 --> 00:01:40,655
These experiences helped
shape my career in IT.
47
00:01:40,655 --> 00:01:43,850
I knew at that time that
I wanted to go into tech,
48
00:01:43,850 --> 00:01:47,045
but I struggled where I
want it to focus my career.
49
00:01:47,045 --> 00:01:49,460
Starting at Google as an
IT journalists allowed
50
00:01:49,460 --> 00:01:52,000
me to experience many
different areas of technology.
51
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,560
It allowed me to figure out
the jobs I didn't want to
52
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:55,910
do before I was able to identify
53
00:01:55,910 --> 00:01:57,655
exactly what I did want to do.
54
00:01:57,655 --> 00:01:59,960
Really passionate about
IT infrastructure,
55
00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:01,475
but you can't understand
56
00:02:01,475 --> 00:02:03,260
infrastructure until you
understand hardware.
57
00:02:03,260 --> 00:02:05,045
Let's dig in, in IT,
58
00:02:05,045 --> 00:02:07,285
hardware is an essential
topic to understand.
59
00:02:07,285 --> 00:02:09,830
You might find yourself
replacing faulty components
60
00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:12,550
or even upgrading an entire
fleet of machines one day.
61
00:02:12,550 --> 00:02:14,015
By the end of this lesson,
62
00:02:14,015 --> 00:02:16,010
you'll be able to describe
all the physical parts
63
00:02:16,010 --> 00:02:17,870
of computer and how
they work together.
64
00:02:17,870 --> 00:02:20,170
You'll even be able to
build your own computer.
65
00:02:20,170 --> 00:02:22,340
Once you figured out
how one computer works,
66
00:02:22,340 --> 00:02:23,585
you'll be able to understand how
67
00:02:23,585 --> 00:02:25,085
any type of computer works.
68
00:02:25,085 --> 00:02:28,200
Excited, I am.
Let's get started.
