Best Answer

I am not sure if I am remembering a different scene, as it has been a while since I watched the movie, but I thought it was an Operating Systems lecture (CS 161. Operating Systems). I searched for Operating Systems lecture and The Social Network, and came across a blog by the lecturer who was portrayed in the film.

The question: Suppose we’re given a computer with a 16-bit virtual address and a page size of 256 bytes.The system uses one-level page tables, that start at address 0x0400. Maybe you want to have DMA on your 16-bit system, who knows? The first few pages are reserved for hardware flags, etc. Assume page table entries have eight status bits. The eight status bits would be?

Mark's reply: 1 valid bit, 1 modify bit, 1 reference bit and 5 permission bits

It sounds like the right scene.

Answer 2

He falls asleep in a business meeting with a venture capitalist. IIRC, it was the first meeting that Eduardo set up, and it's set up in a flashback where he says something like, "He came, but I wish he stayed home."

He walks out of a class after being handed a note from a girl that said, "u dick". It's on his way out of that classroom, after being ridiculed by the professor for "giving up", that he rattles off the correct answer.
