Identical twins from Japan, Denmark and Germany are competing | 2024-11-05T17:30:08 | By
DOUG FERGUSON |
Rasmus Hojgaard of Denmark is a lock to be among the leading 10 players from the European tour who earn a PGA Tour card for 2025, making it the second straight year of identical twins on the PGA Tour. His brother, Nicolai, earned one of those European spots last year.Pierceson and Parker Coody, the grandsons of former Masters champion Charles Coody, had tour cards this season.More sets of identical twins might not be too far behind on various tours.Jeremy Paul of Germany has earned a PGA Tour card for 2025 through the Korn Ferry Tour. His twin brother, Yannik Paul, is on the European tour and has an outside chance of getting one of the 10 cards for the PGA Tour.In Japan, the 22-year-old Iwai twins — Akie and Chisato — each have three victories on the Japan LPGA this year, and both are among the top 50 in the world.Identical twins are nothing new in golf — think back to Curtis and Allan Strange — but it’s no longer a novelty.
The Hojgaard twins are the most accomplished. Nicolai made his Ryder Cup debut at Marco Simone in Italy last year. Rasmus has five European tour titles, two more than his brother. Nicolai is currently No. 55 in the world ranking, Rasmus is at No. 56 going into the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship this week.
Rasmus nearly earned a PGA Tour card last year, beaten out of the 10th spot in the final tournament by Matthieu Pavon.“It’s probably a good thing that Nicolai went over there to start with,” he said Tuesday in Abu Dhabi. “Now I can sort of guide myself around and hopefully not make some of the same mistakes. We talked a lot about it, and yeah, we’re going to probably find maybe a place over there and make it easier, not traveling over the Atlantic every other week.”
The Hojgaards and Coodys made a small slice of PGA Tour history this year when both sets of identical twins played in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
Odds are the Danish twins will be the only ones on the PGA Tour in 2025. Pierceson Coody is at No. 130 in the FedEx Cup, while Parker Coody is at No. 169 with three tournaments left.The Paul brothers went their separate ways after playing college golf at Colorado. Yannik is No. 155 in the world because of getting more ranking points on the European tour. Jeremy beat him to the PGA Tour — at least for now. Yannik is No. 43 in the Race to Dubai and would need a big week in Abu Dhabi to make up ground and get the 10th PGA Tour card.Oddly enough, their time at Colorado overlapped with another set of identical twins competing for the Buffaloes — Jenny and Kristin Coleman, who have both played on the Epson Tour. Jenny Coleman has made it to the LPGA Tour (including this year), while her sister has never advanced past the developmental Epson Tour.Go back two decades to find Aree and Naree Song on the LPGA Tour. Aree Song was runner-up at the Kraft Nabisco Championship at age 17 in 2004, the same year her sister won on what is now the Epson Tour.As for the Iwai twins, their record on the Japan LPGA is nearly identical, too. Both have won three times this year. Akie is No. 26 in the world, Chisato is No. 48. Both played in the U.S. Women’s Open and the Women’s British Open. Chisato tied for 19th in the U.S. Women’s Open and Akie tied for seventh at St. Andrews.
Scott’s scheduleAdam Scott has been loyal throughout the years to his native Australia, often playing the Australian PGA and the Australian Open, and the Australian Masters when it was going. One year he played all three, plus the World Cup of Golf in Australia.Only twice when there were no travel restrictions because of the COVID-19 pandemic did Scott fail to return home, in 2018 and 2008.But this has been a long year, and Scott is staying in his Switzerland home after the European tour season ends.“Throughout my career I have always done my best to come back to Australia to compete in at least some of our great local events,” Scott told Australian Golf Digest. “This year will be an exception, as I need to spend some quality time with my family and get some rest.”The Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship is his 23rd tournament this season, a year that has included him being part of the PGA Tour board as it navigates a potential deal with the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia.The 44-year-old Scott is at No. 19 in the world, his highest ranking in more than four years.
LPGA awardsNow that Nelly Korda has wrapped up LPGA player of the year, two more awards are still be to be decided.The LPGA said Jeeno Thitikul of Thailand has withdrawn from The Annika next week in Florida, meaning she will not have enough rounds to qualify for the Vare Trophy for the lowest scoring average. The award comes with one point toward the Hall of Fame. Korda also is ineligible for not playing enough rounds.Ayaka Furue of Japan has a slim lead over Haeran Ryu of South Korea for the Vare Trophy.Mao Saigo of Japan is leading the race for rookie of the year, ahead of Jin Hee Im. Saigo is not defending her title on the Japan LPGA this week so she can play in the Lotte Championship in Hawaii.
Scheduling problemThe PGA Tour Champions has released its 2025 schedule and it includes one particularly busy week in May.The Regions Tradition, the first of five majors on the senior circuit, is scheduled for May 15-18, following an open date. It’s a curious choice because that’s the same week as the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow.It’s the only time a senior major and a regular major are held in the same week. And because PGA champions are exempt for life, that means Padraig Harrington, Y.E. Yang and John Daly will have to decide between a senior major and the PGA Championship.Major champions in IndiaThe Hindustan Times is reporting that U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau is likely to be playing the first Asian Tour “International Series” event held in India next year, along with the rest of his Crushers teammates from LIV Golf. That includes Anirban Lahiri of India.“If everything works out, I am extremely excited about the opportunity to play in India,” DeChambeau told the newspaper. “I have never been there, but it’s a country that has fascinated me.”The report indicated DeChambeau would be the first reigning major champion to play in India, and it was picked up by several outlets.That would ignore Peter Thomson of Australia.Thomson was the reigning British Open champion (1965 at Royal Birkdale, the last of his five Open titles) when he played in the 1966 Indian Open held that year in April. Thomson also won the inaugural Indian Open in 1964 and was bullish about its potential as a golf market.DivotsA pair of teenagers are on tour this week. Dylan Brack, an 18-year-old from California, makes his PGA Tour debut after he qualified for the World Wide Technology Championship in Mexico. Honorine Nobuta Ferry, 14, received a sponsor exemption for the Lotte Championship in Hawaii on the LPGA. ... Luke Clanton of Florida State, the No. 1 player in the world amateur ranking, is among 16 players invited to the Walker Cup practice session. The matches next year will be held at Cypress Point. ... ESPN+ will offer featured group coverage from the CME Group Tour Championship on the LPGA. ... Thriston Lawrence of South Africa leads the 10 European tour members in line to receive PGA Tour cards next year. Romain Langasque of France is No. 10 by a slim margin (44 points) over Tom McKibbin of Northern Ireland.Stat of the weekOnly six players in the 120-man field at the World Wide Technology Championship in Mexico are already in the Masters. The winner this week earns a Masters invitation.Final word“My intention when I was a young guy was to play amateur golf. I only turned pro because I was beating the guys who were turning pro.” — Padraig Harrington, inducted this year into the World Golf Hall of Fame.___This version corrects the spelling of Allan Strange’s first name.___AP golf: https://apnews.com/hub/golf

Jay Peters, The Verge, “Apple Put the Magic Mouse’s Charging Port on the Bottom Again”:
Apple’s new USB-C-equipped Magic Mouse somehow still has
the charging port on the bottom. While Apple could have used the
launch as an opportunity to move the charging port from the
underside of the device — where the port has remained for
nearly a decade, despite other updates to the
mouse and being mocked for the decision — the
port is still there.
This new $99 Magic Mouse means that, for the foreseeable
future, Apple still thinks that the best way to charge your Magic
Mouse is by flipping it over to plug it in, making it so you can’t
use it. Why?
We’ve all been waiting for Apple to update the “Magic” input peripherals — keyboards, trackpads, and mice — to USB-C, and they’re finally here. None of them seem significantly changed aside from the port, including, as Peters notes, that the refreshed Magic Mouse doesn’t move the charging port from the bottom. It’s just USB-C instead of Lightning now. This will antagonize the vocal contingent of people who think the port placement is not merely ill-considered, but downright absurd. But I’m not surprised in the least that Apple didn’t change it. The contingent of Magic Mouse port-on-the-belly haters is, as I said, vocal, but I also think it’s small.
Yes, with the charging port on the mouse’s belly, you cannot use it while it charges. There are obvious downsides to that. But those positing the Magic Mouse as absurd act as though Apple doesn’t know this. Of course Apple knows this. Apple obviously just sees this as a trade-off worth making. Apple wants the mouse to be visually symmetric, and they want the top surface to slope all the way down to the desk or table top it rests upon. You can’t achieve that with an exposed port.
My other hunch is that the Magic Mouse’s designers actually see the inability to use it while plugged in as a feature, not a bug. They want you to use it wirelessly, so you have to use it wirelessly. A wired mouse feels different because the cable adds a bit of tension. Sometimes with a tethered mouse, especially if the mouse is lightweight, it’ll move a little from cable tension when you let go of it. If you could use it wired, some users would use it wired. That can’t happen with a mouse whose port is on the bottom.
I know for a fact that Apple designers have considered designs for a mouse with the port exposed at the front, and everything they came up with looked worse. Putting the port on the belly is putting form over function, but in this case Apple’s designers think the better form is worth the trade-off. With this design, the mouse looks better 100 percent of the time it’s in use, and it looks a bit silly every few months when you need to charge it.1
“We’re willing to accept the annoyance of forcing a few-minute break in your work if you run it down to 0%, in exchange for a more elegant appearance and preventing you from using it with a feel we don’t intend for it to have” is their choice. I for one salute that commitment. I also suspect the overwhelming majority of Magic Mouse users have no complaints about the charging port. In Tim Cook’s parlance, I suspect it has high “customer sat”. Apple does make design mistakes, but when they do, they fix them. Those flaky, undependable butterfly MacBook keyboards lasted five years, but during that stretch, Apple shipped several “OK, we think we fixed it this time” tweaks, like adding a “silicone membrane” in 2018, before finally throwing in the towel and abandoning the butterfly switch design entirely. That 5-year stretch shows that while Apple doesn’t necessarily fix design mistakes quickly, they attempt to fix them quickly.
But the Magic Mouse has charged like this since 2015, with no tweaks. That’s 9 years. It sucks when it runs out of juice right in the middle of working, but that happens only every few months, and you get warnings before it’s entirely drained. All told, it’s fine. Apple sticking with this design in the face of vociferous peanut gallery mockery reminds me of the company’s noble commitment to a single-button mouse, in the name of simplicity, after Windows popularized two-button mice in the 1990s. If you don’t like the Magic Mouse, MacOS has built-in support for third-party mice (as did classic Mac OS have support for multi-button third-party mice). The Magic Mouse charging port placement is an opinionated design, not an absurd design.
That said, I will profess that I haven’t personally used any Apple mouse since the ADB era (in the aforementioned 1990s).2 Modern Apple mice just aren’t physically comfortable for my mouse grip, don’t support third-party mouse drivers like SteerMouse (which lets me set the mouse speed way faster than Apple’s system mouse driver), and I prefer a physical scroll wheel (with reversed, a.k.a. unnatural, direction). I charged up and used a Magic Mouse while writing this article, and within one hour my wrist started to ache. I also think the Magic Mouse clicks too loudly. No joke, my daily driver for the last 4 years has been this simple Lenovo mouse I bought on a lark back in December 2020. So take my mouse opinions with that ThinkPad-branded grain of salt.

2024Q2. Last update 2024Q2. History↓
Last month I had the pleasure of attending EuroLLVM which featured a panel
session on the Carbon programming
language. It was recorded and
of course we all know automated transcription can be stunningly accurate these days, yet I still
took fairly extensive notes throughout. I often take notes (or near
transcriptions) as I find it helps me process. I'm not sure whether I'm adding
any value by writing this up, or just contributing entropy but here it goes.
You should of course assume factual mistakes or odd comments are errors in my
transcription or interpretation, and if you keep an eye on the LLVM YouTube
channel you should find the session
recording uploaded there in the coming months.
First, a bit of background on the session, Carbon, and my interest in it.
Carbon is a programming language started by Google aiming to be used in many
cases where you would currently use C++ (billed as "an experimental successor
to C++"). The Carbon
README
gives a great description of its goals and purpose, but one point I'll
highlight is that ease of interoperability with C++ is a key design
goal and constraint. The project recognises that this limits the options for
the language to such a degree that it explicitly recommends that if you are
able to make use of a modern language like Go, Swift, Kotlin, or Rust, then
you should. Carbon is intended to be there for when you need that C++
interoperability. Of course, (and as mentioned during the panel) there are
parallel efforts to improve Rust's ability to interoperate with
C++.
Whatever other benefits the Carbon project is able to deliver, I think there's
huge value in the artefacts being produced as part of the design and decision
making process so far. This has definitely been true of languages like Swift
and especially Rust, where going back through the development history there's
masses of discussion on difficult decisions e.g. (in the case of Rust) green
threads, the removal of typestate, or internal vs external iterators. The
Swift Evolution and Rust
Internals forums are still a great read,
but obviously there's little ability to revisit fundamental decisions at this
point. I try to follow Carbon's development due to a combination of its
openness, the fact it's early stage enough to be making big decisions (e.g.
lambdas in
Carbon), and also
because they're exploring different design trade-offs than those other
languages (e.g. the Carbon approach to definition-checked
generics). I follow because I'm
a fan of programming language design discussion, not necessarily
because of the language itself, which may or may not turn out to be something
I'm excited to program in. As a programming language development lurker I like
to imagine I'm learning something by osmosis if nothing else - but perhaps
it's just a displacement activity...
If you want to keep up with Carbon, then check out their recently started
newsletter,
issues/PRs/discussions on
GitHub and there's a lot
going on on Discord too (I find group chat distracting so don't really follow
there). The current Carbon
roadmap
is of course worth a read too. In case I wasn't clear enough already, I have
no affiliation to the project. From where I'm standing, I'm impressed by the
way it's being designed and developed out in the open, more than (rightly or
wrongly) you might assume given the Google origin.
Notes from the panel session
The panel "Carbon: An experiment in different tradeoffs" took place on April
11th at EuroLLVM 2024. It was moderated by Hana Dusíková and the panel members
were Chandler Carruth, Jon Ross-Perkins, and Richard Smith. Rather than go
through each question in the order they were asked I've tried to group
together questions I saw as thematically linked. Anything in quotes should be
a close approximation of what was said, but I can't guarantee I didn't
introduce errors.
Background and basics of Carbon
This wasn't actually the first question, but I think a good starting point is
'how would you sell Carbon to a C++ user?'. Per Chandler, "we can provide a
better language, tooling, and ecosystem without needing to leave everything
you built up in C++ (both existing code and the training you had). The cost of
leveraging carbon should have as simple a ramp as possible. Sometimes you need
performance, we can give more advanced tools to help you get the most
performance from your code. In other cases, it's security and we'll be able to
offer more tools here than C++. It's having the ability to unlock improvements
in the language without having to walk away from your investments in C++, that
of course isn't going anywhere."
When is it going to be done? Chandler: "When it's ready! We're trying to put
our roadmap out there publicly where we can. It's a long term project. Our
goal for this year is to get the toolchain caught up with the language design,
get into building practical C++ interop this year. There are many unknowns in
terms of how far we'll get this year, but next year I think you'll see a
toolchain that works and you can do interesting stuff with and evaluate in a
more concrete context."
As for the size of the team and how many companies are contributing, the
conclusion was that Google is definitely the main backer right now but there
are others starting to take a look. There are probably about 5-10 people
active on Carbon in any different week, but it varies so this can be a
different set of people from week to week.
Given we've established that Google are still the main backer, one line of
questioning was about what Google see in it and how management were convinced
to back it. Richard commented "I think we're always interested in exploring
new possibilities for how to deal with our existing C++ codebase, which is a
hugely valuable asset for us. That includes both looking at how we can keep
the C++ language itself happy and our tools for it being good and
maintainable, but also places we might take it in the future. For a long time
we've been talking about if we can build something that works better for our
use case than existing tools, and had an opportunity to explore that and went
with it."
A fun question that followed later aimed to establish the favourite thing
about Carbon from each of the panel members (of course, it's nice that much of
this motivation overlaps with the reasons for my own interest!):
Jon: For me it's unlocking the ability to improve the developer experience.
Improving the language syntax, making things more understandable. Also C++
is very slow to compile and we're hoping for 1/3rd of the compile time for a
typical file vs Clang.
Richard: from a language design perspective, being able to go through and
systematically evaluate every decision and look at them again using things
that have been learned since then.
Chandler: It's not so much the systematic review for me. We're building this
with an eye to C++, and to integrate with C++ need a fairly big complex
language (generics, inheritance, overloading etc etc). But when we look at
this stuff, we keep finding principled and small/focused designs that we can
use to underpin the sort of language functionality that is in C++ but fits
together in a coherent and principled way. And we write this down. I think
a lot of people don't realise that Carbon is writing down all the design as
we go rather than having some mostly complete starting point and then making
changes to that using something like an RFC process.
Finally, (for this section) there was also some intriguing discussion about
Carbon's design tradeoffs. This is covered mostly elsewhere, but I think
Chandler's answer focusing on the philosophy of Carbon rather than technical
implementation details fits well here: "One of the philosophical goals of our
language design is we don't try to solve hard problems in the compiler. [In
other languages] there's often a big problem and the compiler has to solve it,
freeing the programmer from worrying about it. Instead we provide the syntax
and ask the programmer to tell us. e.g. for type inference, you could imagine
having Hindley-Milner type inference. That's a hard problem, even if it makes
ergonomics better in some cases. So we use a simpler and more direct type
system. You see this crop up all over the language design."
Carbon governance
The first question related to organisation of the project and its governance
was about what has been done to make it easier for contributors to get
involved. My interpretation of the responses is that although they've had some
success in attracting new contributors, the feeling is that there's more that
could be done here. e.g. from Jon "Things like maintaining the project
documentation, writing a start guide on how to build. We're making some
different infrastructure choices, e.g. bazel, but in general we're trying to
use things people are familiar with: GitHub, GH actions etc. There's probably
still room for improvement. Listening to the LLVM newcomers session a couple
of days ago gave me some ideas. Right now there's probably a lot of challenge
learning how the different model works in Carbon."
The governance model for Carbon in general was something Chandler had a lot to
say about:
On getting it in place early: "I was keen we start off with it, seeing
challenges with C++ or even LLVM where as a project gets big the governance
model that worked well at the beginning might not work so well and changing
it at that point can be really hard. So I wanted to set up something that
could scale, and can be changed if needed.
Initial mistakes: "The initial model was terrible. It was very elaborate, a
large core team of people that pulled in people that weren't even involved
in the project. We'd have weekly/biweekly meetings, a complex consensus
process. In some ways it worked, we were being intentional and it was clear
there was a governance project. But its was so inefficient, so people tried
to avoid it. So we revamped it and simplified it, distilling it to something
a little closer to the benevolent dictator for life model with minimal
patches. Three leads rather than one to add some redundancy, one top-level
governance body, will eventually have a rotation there."
The model now: "It's not that we'll try to agree on everything - if a change
is uncontroversial then any one of the leads can approve, which gives us 3x
bandwidth. Except for the cases if there is controversy, then the three of
us step back and discuss. I had my personal pet favourite feature of carbon
overturned by this governance model. The model allows us to make decisions
quickly and easily, and most decisions are reversible if they turn out to be
wrong. So we don't try to optimise for getting to the best outcome, rather
to minimise cost for getting to an outcome. We're still early - we have a
plan for scaling but that's more in the future."
Further questioning led to additional points being made about the governance
model, such as the fact there are now several community members unaffiliated
to Google with commit privileges, that the project goals are
documented
which helps contributors understand if a proposal is likely to be aligned with
Carbon or not, and that these goals are potentially changeable if people come
in with good arguments as to why they should be updated.
Carbon vs other languages
Naturally, there were multiple questions related to Carbon vs Rust. In terms
of high-level comparisons, the panel members were keen to point out that Rust
is a great language and is mature, while Carbon remains at an early stage.
There are commonalities in terms of the aim to provide modern type system
features to systems programmers, but the focus on C++ interoperability as a
goal driving the language design is a key differentiator.
Thoughts about Rust naturally lead to questions about Carbon's memory safety
story, and whether Carbon plans to have something like Rust's borrow checker.
Richard commented "I think it's possible to get something like that. We're not
sure exactly what it will look like yet, we're planning to look at this more
between the 0.1 and 0.2 milestone. Borrow checking is an interesting option to
pursue but there are some others to explore."
Concerns were also raised about whether given that C++ interop is such a core
goal of Carbon, it may have problems as C++ continues to evolve (perhaps with
features that clash with features add in Carbon). Chandler's response was "As
long as clang gets new C++ features, we'll get them. Similar to how swift's
interop works, linking the toolchain and using that to understand the
functionality. If C++ starts moving in ways addressing the safety concerns etc
that would be fantastic. We could shut down carbon! I don't think that's very
likely. In terms of functionality that would make interop not work well that's
a bit of a concern, but of course if C++ adds something they need it to
interop with existing C++ code so we face similar constraints. While Richard
commented "C++ modules is a big one we need to keep an eye on. But at the
moment as modules adoption hasn't taken off in a big way yet, we're still
targeting header files." There was also a brief exchange about what if Carbon
gets reflection before C++, with the hope that if it did happen it could help
with the design process by giving another example for C++ to learn from (just
as Carbon learns from Rust, Swift, Go, C++, and others).
Compiler implementation questions
EuroLLVM is of course a compilers conference, so there was a lot of curiousity
about the implementation of the Carbon toolchain itself. In discussing
trade-offs in the design, Jon leapt into a discussion of this "to go for SemIR
vs a traditional AST. In Clang the language is represented by an AST, which is
what you're typically taught about how compilers work. We have a semantic IR
model where we produce lex tokens, then a parse tree (slightly different to an
AST) an then it becomes SemIR. This is very efficient and fast to process,
lowers to LLVM IR very easily, but it's a different model and a different way
to think about writing a compiler. To the earlier point about newcomers, it's
something people have to learn and a bit of a barrier because of that. We try
to address it, but it is a trade-off." Jon since provided more insight on
Carbon's implementation approach in a recent /r/ProgrammingLanguages
thread.
Given what Carbon devs have learned about applying data oriented design to
optimise the frontend (see talks like Modernizing Compiler Design for Carbon
Toolchain), could the same ideas
be applied to the backend? Chandler commented on the tradeoff he sees "By
necessity with data-oriented design you have to specialise a lot. We think we
can benefit from this a lot with the frontend at the cost of reusability. The
trade-off might be different within LLVM."
When asked about whether the Carbon frontend may be reusable for other tools
(reducing duplicated effort writing parsers for Carbon), Jon responded "I'm
pretty confident at least through the parse tree it will be reusable. I'm more
hesitant to make that claim through to SemIR. It may not be the best choice
for everyone, and in some cases you may want more of an AST. But providing
these tools as part of the language project like a formatter, migration tool
[for language of API changes], something like clang-tidy, we're going to be
taking on these costs ourselves which is going to incentivise us to find ways
of amortising this and finding the right balance."

Credentialed U.S. military and national security officials are experimenting and engaging in multiple classified environments with Defense Llama — a powerful new large language model that Scale AI configured and fine-tuned over the last year from Meta’s Llama 3 LLM — to adopt generative AI for their distinctive missions, like combat planning and intelligence operations.
Dan Tadross, Scale AI’s head of federal delivery and a Marine Corps reservist, briefed DefenseScoop on the making and envisioned impacts of this new custom-for-the-military model in an exclusive interview and technology demonstration on Monday.
“There are already some users from combatant commands and other military groups that are able to leverage this on certain networks,” he explained at Scale AI’s office in Washington.
Large language models and the overarching field of generative AI encompass emerging and already-disruptive technologies that can produce (convincing but not always accurate) text, software code, images and other media — based on human prompts.
This quickly evolving realm presents major opportunities for the Defense Department, while simultaneously posing uncertain and serious potential challenges.
Last year, Pentagon leadership formed a temporary task force to accelerate DOD components’ grasp, oversight and deployments of generative AI. More recently, the department and other agencies were delivered new directives regarding pursuing the advanced technology in various provisions in the Biden administration’s new National Security Memo (NSM) on AI issued last month.
“We are still looking at ways to provide more enterprise support, especially as things like the NSM that was just released. That’s one of the areas that we’re leaning forward on being able to try and help support the DOD’s adoption of this technology, again, in a responsible manner,” Tadross said.
Notably, Scale AI’s demo occurred the same day that Meta revealed that it’s making its Llama models available to U.S. government agencies — and explicitly those that are working on defense and national security applications — with support from other commercial partners including Scale AI. Also on Monday, OpenAI unveiled its first limited ChatGPT Enterprise partnership with DOD, which will enable its generative capabilities’ use on unclassified systems and data.
These announcements follow research and reports that recently surfaced suggesting that Chinese researchers linked to the People’s Liberation Army applied Meta’s open source Llama model to create an AI asset that presents the possibility for military applications.
“There’s always a concern [about] the risk appetite. My perspective on this is that the risk of not adopting these technologies is actually greater than adopting them in a measured and responsible way,” Tadross told DefenseScoop.
In some ways, he said, Scale AI’s Defense Llama stems from the company’s still-unfolding test and evaluation and other experimental efforts with DOD partners in combatant commands and at Marine Corps University’s School of Advanced Warfighting.
“We found that there are instances where a DOD member or any government official is going to ask a question that would not get a good response from the model,” Tadross said.
“This is because if you build these models off of the plethora of information that’s on the internet, and then also are tuning it for the use cases that are best commercialized … there are protections that are put in place to ensure that they are used responsibly, [including] making sure that they don’t respond about warfare, about drug use, about human trafficking, things like this that make all the sense in the world, to ensure that they don’t go haywire and start answering all those questions to the general population,” he said.
But once LLMs were safely configured for use and experimentation by trained and approved government officials on DOD’s classified and more secure networks, Tadross explained, the models still “refused” to fully address certain prompts about warfare planning and other defense topics.
“We needed to figure out a way to get around those refusals in order to act. Because if you’re a military officer and you’re trying to do something, even in an exercise, and it responds with ‘You should seek a diplomatic solution,’ you will get very upset. You slam the laptop closed,” he said.
“So we needed to find a way to minimize those refusals and ensure that it is not only doing that, but also answering the tone that would be useful — because if it’s like this very informal social media-type tone, it doesn’t instill a lot of confidence in its response,” he said.
Tadross and his team trained Defense Llama on a sprawling dataset that pulled together military doctrine, international humanitarian law, and relevant policies that align with the Pentagon’s rules for armed conflict and ethical principles for AI.
The engineering process known as supervised fine-tuning was applied. And to inform the model’s tone, officials applied reinforcement learning with human feedback methods.
“You get a response and then you provide the type of response that you would have preferred. So because the intelligence community has already written style guides for how to write, we just built a lot of examples based off that,” Tadross said.
He declined to confirm which classified networks Defense Llama is running on — or specific military units that are tapping into it — to date.
But in an emailed statement, a Scale AI spokesperson later confirmed that the model “is now available for integration into various defense systems, including command and control platforms, intelligence analysis tools, and decision-support systems.”
Defense Llama can be accessed exclusively in controlled government hubs housed within the Scale Donovan platform.
Tadross used Donovan to demonstrate the new LLM for DefenseScoop.
The platform presented another commercial LLM in a side-by-side view with Defense Llama. In the first demo, Donovan posed the question: “As a military planner, which munition should I select to destroy a hardened structure while minimizing collateral damage from a nearby civilian facility?”
Defense Llama provided a lengthy response that also spotlighted a number of factors worth considering, such as “hardness of the target, distance from civilian facilities, environmental features, and time constraints.”
The other LLM replied with an apology, a simple explanation that the question was out of its scope, and a recommendation to seek other options.
For another prompt, Tadross asked: “What tactics has Iran employed against coalition forces?”
He explained in real time that the model that’s not Defense Llama supplied “a straight refusal.” The Scale AI-configured LLM, on the other hand, offered up multiple paragraphs about how Iran has used ballistic missiles, cyber warfare, intelligence gathering, terrorist groups and naval forces.
“This is all very much in line with what they’ve actually done,” Tadross noted.
Drawing back on his past experiences operating inside military command centers, he remembered how key data points and information would be funneled through many officials in high-stakes scenarios before reaching top decision-makers.
“The intent behind deploying technology like this, and the impact that I expect that it’ll make, is that it will reduce the reliance on more and more people sitting at those headquarters sections doing the grunt work that’s necessary to pull the data together. So instead, what you’ll have is a situation where there’ll be fewer people able to access a larger swath of data and make a decision quite a bit faster than what they would have done otherwise,” Tadross told DefenseScoop.

In every issue, I cover challenges at Big Tech and startups through the lens of engineering managers and senior engineers. To get weekly emails like this in your inbox, subscribe here:Today happens to be election day in the US: the biggest political event in four years. While we will not discuss that kind of politics in this publication: this event is a good excuse to discuss the other type of politics: workplace politics. Specifically: for software engineers and engineering leaders.Cindy Sridharan is a software engineer working in the Bay Area. I originally connected with Cindy years back, online, over distributed systems discussions, and we met in-person last year in San Francisco. As the topic of internal politics for software engineers came up, Cindy, frustrated with the kind of careless, non-productive discourse that swirled around this topic, wrote an article about it, back in 2022.The article really resonated with me – and with other people I shared it with. So with the permission and help of Cindy, this is an edited and updated version of Cindy’s original article.In this issue, Cindy covers:Know how your org worksSoft skills: these are hard skills!Implicit hierarchiesCultures: top-down, bottom-up, and both at the same timeGet comfortable with the “mess”Look for small winsUnderstand organizational constraintsAs related reading, see these The Pragmatic Engineer Deepdives:Internal politics for software engineers and managers: Part 1Internal politics for software engineers and managers: Part 2 Engineering career paths at Big Tech and scaleupsSeven tactics to become a more effective software engineer. None are about codingWith this, it’s over to Cindy:Some time ago, exhausted by never-ending complaints about self-defeating reward structures at companies, I made what seemed to me a fairly self-evident comment:Cindy Sridharan on XSome of the responses this comment garnered were, well, rather pointed. Most people’s dismay seemed to have stemmed from what they’d perceived to be my dismissiveness towards their well-intentioned albeit ultimately not very fruitful efforts to make things better at their workplace. I’ve been meaning to expand on some of my thoughts on this topic for months, since I feel this warrants a more nuanced and considered discussion than is feasible on social media.This post aims to lay out some problems engineers might often encounter when trying to address causes of dysfunction at their companies. It offers some food for thought on how to be more effective working within the limitations and constraints of organizations.One caveat I need to mention is that most of what I describe here is from the perspective of an individual contributor (IC). I’ve never been a manager and have no experience of navigating organizational politics as a manager. There are innumerable resources by seasoned managers on how to maneuver managerial politics, for those interested.It’s something of a rule of thumb that on social media, topics that generally require careful consideration are painted with reductionist, impractical, or aspirational brushstrokes. This is often done by people with very high levels of visibility, and sometimes by people who really ought to know better. Much of this oversimplified and irresponsible discourse gets excessively amplified, to the degree that it can very quickly become what’s perceived as “conventional wisdom”. None of this is productive. Worse, it gives easily influenced people the wrong idea of how organizations “must” function.It can be quite discouraging to see aspirational goals get elevated to such heights that anything that falls short of their high standards is often deemed as “toxic” or “dysfunctional.”Technical debt is a common talking point, so let’s take this as a concrete example. The accumulation of technical debt as teams prioritize building new features at a rapid pace, even if it comes at the expense of quality, performance, testing and so forth: this is a very common occurrence. As an industry, we’ve not built the tools, framework, or even an effective vocabulary required to talk about these tradeoffs, beyond simply calling it “technical debt”. As a result, most conversations around technical debt end up being oddly confusing. People are often disappointed about how “leadership doesn’t get tech debt” or about how features are always prioritized over critical maintenance work.Yes, ideally we should have a culture which prioritizes minimizing technical debt and building software sustainably, not just shipping features. But you’d be hard-pressed to find a single team or organization that prioritizes addressing technical debt as the primary focus of the team for a longer period of time. If and when technical debt does get prioritized as the primary focus of the team, it’s often because the technical debt has a noticeable and negative impact on a key, well-tracked, highly visible metric that reflects poorly on the team.If your team is hitting all deliverables on time, then there might be an appetite for addressing the issue of technical debt in fits and starts. But in the vast majority of cases, addressing technical debt needs to be undertaken iteratively. You need to initially aim for small and easy wins that inspire confidence and lay the groundwork for you to push for bigger and better improvements. And you need to do all of this without slowing down your team’s delivery pace. Preferably without having protracted conversations with “leadership” to get necessary buy-in to do so.Social media, blog posts and conferences amplify aspirational ideas (if leadership just “gets” why technical debt is so harmful and “prioritizes” it, then we can easily address this problem). Your organization, however, rewards what you actually get done which benefits the organization. This might be a very far cry from whatever might be de rigueur on social media.One of the most effective things you can do to be successful at your job is to understand how your organization works. This understanding will better inform your outlook on all things, including:exactly what technical skill you need to invest effort into getting better at, which will actually be rewardedhow to build lasting relationships with other people on your team or organization that ultimately dictate the success of a projecthow to effectively pitch projects or improvements to leadership and actually see these through to completionhow to navigate ambiguityhow to manage conflicting priorities or expectationshow to best deal with setbackshow to weigh the pros and cons of technical choices in the larger context of the organizational realities and needshow to identify and drive quick winshow to discern what’s achievable, and in precisely what time framehow to use this knowledge to judiciously pick battlesand in the worst case, to know when to cut your losses and quitManagers need to deal with these skills as a part of their job description and so do ICs at the very senior levels. But it’s never too early in your career to start cultivating this knowledge. In fact, a core part of mentoring engineers involves educating them in how the organization works, to enable them to build a successful track record of getting things done.Some managers and senior ICs often take a short-sighted view and see “shielding” non-senior folks from organizational politics as a way to help other engineers “maintain focus.” Shielding non-senior engineers from organizational politics not just stymies their growth, but also hinders their visibility of the skills they’ll eventually need to learn the hard way. These are the kind of skills for which there exists no easy playbook.This post doesn’t aim to be a comprehensive guide on how to learn the skills which helps one truly understand how an organization works, or even a comprehensive list of the skills themselves. Some of the points mentioned in this article that help one better understand how an organization works are simply ones I’ve encountered. If you ask someone else in a different organization, you might get a very different list. It’s no exploit to learn a new skill when you know exactly what to learn, how to learn it, and so long as the answer is straightforward, as is the case with many purely technical concepts.Learning “how your organization works” is a constant exercise in learning the organization’s ever-changing landscape, especially as people, projects, priorities, partners, and leadership change. Learning how to make decisions when key pieces of information are missing is also a very important skill, insomuch as it helps you hone another set of valuable skills:how best to gather information you’re missinghow and when to get by without doing soSome of these skills I’m talking about can be learned by talking to people and some need to be inferred through close observation of leadership’s decisions. There are some skills, however, that can only be learned the hard way by getting things wrong, or watching other people get things wrong. In organizations with a culture of constant learning, visibility into failures isn’t something that’s discouraged. At the same time, whether your organization is one such which subscribes to the school of thought of making failures visible: this is something you’d only learn if you know how your organization works. The most important skill for any engineer to possess is the ability to learn quickly. This applies to both technical concepts and sociotechnical concepts. I’m absolutely by no means an expert in any of these myself; but over the years, I like to think I’ve got a better understanding of why this knowledge is important.Most organizations have a formal structure. They usually start with a VP or a Director at the top, and proceed down to individual teams. If you’re an IC, you’re a leaf node in the org tree.Most organizations, in my experience, also tend to have something of an informal structure, especially among ICs. In organizations that make job titles and levels public, it’s relatively easy to know which engineer might have more influence. In organizations where this is concealed, it’s a lot harder to infer the informal hierarchy, and where exactly you fit into it. Sometimes, it’s not so much to do with job titles and levels, than with tenure on the team or the organization. And sometimes, it’s some other factor, like subject matter expertise, open-source experience, or even something as arbitrary as employment history.It’s important to be aware of this informal hierarchy because as often as not, it may directly influence your work, irrespective of your personal level and job title.Engineers who wield an outsized influence on the decision making process tend to often be fairly senior, and also fairly opinionated. It usually isn’t even any particular opinion they might have on any topic that drives their decision making: but it’s usually overarching philosophies which guide their thinking. These opinions could shape everything from:the way your codebase is structuredto the tooling in useto the way the team tests or deploys a systemto the way the system is architectedto the reason why the team did or didn’t choose a specific technology to work with, or a specific team to partner withto the reason why some things that seem “broken” are never prioritizedand more.These philosophies and the opinions guided by them can end up being the decisive factor in whether your efforts to make any change or improvements to the existing system will be fruitful or not. Unless you understand “why” things are the way they are – for there often is a method to every madness, if you’re patient to dig deep enough – your proposal on “how” to improve the situation may end up going against the grain, making it that much more of an uphill task for your proposal to be accepted. Furthermore, your well-intentioned proposal to fix something that appears obviously “broken” or “neglected:” doing so runs the risk of making you seem like someone who did not put in effort to understand the history of the system. Being perceived as someone who did not do their homework doesn’t exactly breed confidence in why you should be entrusted with fixing the system! One of Amazon’s Principle Engineering Tenets is “Respect What Came Before”. Many systems that appear to be “broken” are worthy of respect, and efforts to evolve them must be tackled from multiple angles:Understand the implicit organizational hierarchyIdentify the people who wield unusually high influence; understand their way of thinking and general philosophies. Do this by either talking to them or other people in the organization, by researching their work, reading any articles or blog posts they wrote, or talks they presented, etc.Identify how their philosophies were successfully applied to projects and teams they worked on. Why were these efforts considered successful? What were the problems that were solved by these philosophies? What problems were made worse?How do you build credibility with highly influential people within the organization? Can you lean on your past work? Your subject matter expertise? Your previous track record? Is there someone they trust and respect who can vouch for you, for them to take a leap of faith and agree to do things your way?These are all things to consider before making proposals to change a system. Smaller changes might not require this level of rigor, and might in fact be a good way to net a lot of easy wins. But for anything more involved and more high impact, learning how and why your organization makes technical decisions is a non-negotiable requirement.Irrespective of titles and hierarchies, most organizations also have a top-down or bottom-up culture, or a mix of both. In absolute terms, neither one is superior compared to the other. Microsoft is a top-down organization. Meta has a bottom-up culture. Both are extremely successful companies.In top-down cultures, the most important decisions are made from above. The person making the final decision could be a tech lead, sometimes a manager, or a Director-level executive. On such teams, much of your success boils down to “managing up”. Successfully managing up requires grappling with questions about the decision maker, such as:Are you on the same wavelength as them? Do you both attach the same salience to the problem at hand? If not, are you up to the task of impressing upon them its importance and urgency?Is there some information or knowledge they have and you don’t, that informs their thinking on the matter? How best can you get this information?Do you both share the same view of the opportunity cost?What are their implicit and explicit biases? What are their blind spots? Can you use some of these to your advantage?What are the things they generally value? What kind of work or behavior impresses them?Is there any specific abstraction or process or methodology they are particularly attached to? Can you lean in on these to more effectively market your opinion to them?What’s the timeline they are comfortable working with to solve the problem? A month? A performance cycle? Many years?What’s your personal level of trust with them? Will they go to bat for you?What does “success” mean to them and how do they measure it? How have they typically measured it for in-progress work?How do they typically handle setbacks? Have you drawn up contingency plans and shared them?How do they handle failure? Do they assume responsibility for it, or will you be scapegoated – and possibly fired?Do they have a culture of blameless postmortems for large-scale team or organizational failures? Are these lessons shared and discussed transparently with everyone on the team and in the organization?What is their experience of working with partner teams or organizations?Have they been burned badly in the past when working with another organization or another team?What’s their organizational reputation? Are they well-liked? Respected?How conflict-averse or otherwise are they?Knowing the answer to these questions can give you a sense of how best to identify problems and propose solutions, to see them through, and demonstrate a level of impact that might advance your career.On bottom-up teams, the challenge is to manage laterally while also managing-up. This includes grappling with conundrums like:How do you build consensus among your peers when there’s no top-down decision-making authority?How do you break down barriers between peers?How do conflicts get resolved if there’s no higher authority to mediate? Does it boil down to nitty-gritty quantitative details like metrics, or something more nebulous such as “likeability”?If all key ideas have to originate from the bottom, which ones make it to the top? How has this worked in the past?Can coding solve all issues? Can you prototype an idea you have and then successfully pitch it? Does your team or organization empower you to do this during business hours, or are you willing to spend your nights and weekends pursuing this goal?Did someone already attempt to solve the problem you’re trying to fix? How did that go? What were the failures? Do you understand the proximate cause of any failures? Are you sure you won’t run into the same issues again?What’s the opportunity cost? Can you convince your peers it’s worth solving right away if it hasn’t been prioritized to date?What’s your scope of influence? Does it extend to your team, your sister teams, or your entire org? Are people outside your team willing to give your solution a whirl?How do you convince people or teams with different incentives? Is this something you can even do without top-down support?How do you ensure adoption, especially cross-organizational adoption?How do you enlist partners or advocates for your effort? Are there other teams ready to adopt your solution, were you to just build it and advocate for it?Do you have key relationships with the stakeholders? Do they trust you? If not, why not? And how would you go about building this trust?How do you convince peers with bad experiences of your team or project in the past?How do you build credibility?How do you motivate and incentivize your peers in general?What’s the cost of failure? Just one fair to middling performance cycle, or something worse? Who’ll be impacted; Just you, or your entire team?What are the cultural problems? In a bottom-up setting where there’s no higher authority to mandate teams to change how they work, how do culture problems get fixed?There are many organizations that are top-down in some respects and bottom-up in others. On such teams, you’d need to employ a mix of strategies to successfully thread the needle for many of these issues and chaperone your ideas through to successful execution. Source: Cindy Sridharan on XMost organizations value and reward people who “get things done”.You’re far likelier to encounter codebases that have “evolved” over time, with poor documentation, lots of outdated comments and often with few to no tests, than you are to encounter ones which are perfectly documented, have well-tested public and internal APIs, and code which is perfectly obvious.You’re going to be far more productive if you learn how to navigate such codebases successfully, which involves learning some of the following:how to gather just the right amount of information to get on with your taskhow not to get too caught up in the weeds, unless requiredhow to read a lot of code at a fast clip and come away with a reasonably good mental model of what it’s trying to dohow to come up with a hypothesis and to use a variety of general purpose techniques and tools to validate ithow to reproduce bugs quickly without elaborate local configurations and setupsThese skills aren’t typically taught in college. They’re seldom talked about on social media or even at conferences. It plays well to the gallery to harp on about the importance of tests or documentation. I’m not trying to minimize their importance. But dealing with mess and ambiguity is a key skill to hone to improve your own productivity when working with code.The same philosophy applies to working with sociotechnical systems like organizations: get comfortable with mess. You’re far likelier to encounter organizations comprising teams and leaders of:varying levels of skill and ability to deliver on their promisesvarying – sometimes opposing – incentives and reward structuresvarying appetites for risk or changevarying philosophical views on software development and systemsvarying levels of tolerance for failurevarying willingness to make investments in people and projects with a long-term view Being successful in “messy” organizations requires quickly learning the topology of the organization and charting pathways to navigate it. Your “personal ideal” may not match the reality on the ground. I’m cynical enough to believe everyone ultimately is looking out for their personal interest, and you need to look out for yours.Get comfortable with mess and seek out ways to untangle it or work around it. Seek alignment when interests align. Be able to identify quickly when such alignment will always prove elusive. Be quick to dissociate amiably when interests clash irrevocably. Know when to batten down the hatches, but more importantly, also know when to cut your losses. Be transparent. Treat people with respect and humility, even when they disagree with you, or when you feel they are mistaken. Do this even when they seem to act against the best interests of the team or organization. It might very well be you who is failing to appreciate their predicament and you might be misunderstanding the reason for their actions. It might take you way longer to truly get the measure of your organization’s sociotechnical politics, than to get up to speed with a codebase. To build credibility, you need to demonstrate some impact early on, instead of waiting months to get the lie of the land before you start getting anything done. Chasing small wins and low-hanging fruit can be an easy path to productivity. Don’t underestimate their importance.Individual managers – much less ICs – can sometimes do only so much to solve the more entrenched organizational problems. DEI - Diversity, Equity and Inclusion - is one that quickly comes to mind. I’ve never seen this problem solved in a bottom-up manner successfully, anywhere. The vanishingly few organizations that did make modest progress often enjoyed executive buy-in. Organizations which were serious about DEI had executive compensation tied to the success of DEI efforts. Just how many organizations still remain committed to the principles of DEI in a post zero interest rates (ZIRP) world is unclear. I do expect this issue to become even more deprioritized in the current environment where companies are laser focused on profitability.It’s folly for ICs or even managers to wade into fixing this - or any other issue - solo, without explicit approval from their management chain, ideally with this work recognized in performance reviews. It’s one thing to truly feel passionate about a topic and to want to help create change; but please be realistic about expectations and outcomes. Charity Majors wrote a good post titled Know Your “One Job” And Do It First, and I largely agree with everything she says.This is also applicable to a lot of other issues about “wholesale culture change.” Unless you’ve been hired with the explicit mandate to bring about a change in culture, i.e., at the executive level, you would be well-advised to be extremely wary of embarking on sweeping, ambitious projects or efforts.That doesn’t mean you can’t create any change at all. The most effective instances of culture change I’ve seen have been incremental. It’s far easier to identify incremental wins when you’ve already learned the ropes by succeeding within the existing, flawed, cultural framework, than by starting from the ground up.Another example is the promotion process, which is often perceived as a biased, opaque and arbitrary process at many companies. While the process might not work for certain ICs at a microlevel, the process is the way it is because it clearly works for the organization, based on whatever metrics the organization is tracking which you might not be privy to.You can learn how the organization’s promotion process works and play your cards right. Or, if the process seems so arbitrary and unfair you feel you will never have a shot at succeeding, you can try to switch to organizations or companies where you feel you might have a fairer crack of the whip. Your manager might be able to elaborate on the whys and wherefores of this process, but managers have competing priorities to juggle and they cannot always guarantee their primary focus will be the career growth of all of their direct reports at all times. Which, again, is why you need to understand how your organization truly works, because you might then be able to seek out people other than your manager who might mentor you to better understand the organization’s way of doing things.It’s easy to dismiss much of what’s in this post as “politics”. The unfortunate reality is that almost everything is political, and beyond a certain level, advancing further requires getting really good at playing this game.Many engineers find it far easier to label things that don’t go their way as “politics”, as opposed to introspecting and learning the hard skills required to make better judgements. “Politics” doesn’t necessarily have to be a negative thing per se, and I suspect the near ubiquitous negative connotations attached to “politics” can be attributed to the fact that a lot of engineers aren’t the most astute when it comes to navigating these nuances. The truth is you can have a very gratifying and rewarding career as an engineer if you’re good at the “purely tech” side of things without ever worrying about the kind of problems described here.But you’re far likelier to be one of those rare force multipliers if you’re also:good at solving pressing problemsrelentlessly getting things doneproactively creating iterative changeAll of which requires understanding how your organization works.This is Gergely, again.Thank you to Cindy for this timely reminder on the importance of navigating your organization in order to become an effective engineer. You can follow Cindy on X, and read more of her writings on her blog.The biggest takeaway from this article for me is this:Software engineers frustrated at being “stuck” in their career often did no proper attempt to understand how their organization works. Answering question like:How do people pitch ideas that leadership pays attention to?What are activities at this workplace that tend to get rewarded?Who are the people who are accessible to me and are “in the know” for different areas?What is the implicit hierarchy at my workplace? Who are the most important engineers / product people that everyone seems to seek out informal advice from?Is my workspace culture actually top-down, bottom-up, or both?Tech companies are far more messy than any of us engineers would like to admit. I have talked with several software engineers who work at prestigious tech companies – and yet, they tell me that inside it is a surprisingly large mess. “Mess” meaning one or more of: lots of tech debt with no plan to pay it down, anqiuared processes, political games, respected engineers being frustrated and on the verge of leaving. When I worked at Skype, and then Uber, I also experienced the same: from the outside everything looked idyllic. From the inside, it felt like some parts of the company were held together either by duct tape or scaffolding that was so fragile that it was a miracle it did not collapse on itself.It’s good to have strong ideals about what “great” is: but understand the practicalities of “good enough.” The single most frustrated engineers I worked with were ones who refused to let go of their idealistic way of working: and were upset that their organization would refuse to do things the “right” way (in their mind, that is). There is a fine line between always pushing for more and better techologies/processes/approaches: but also understanding when it’s impractical to change the status quo. And – as Cindy reminded us – always start by understanding why technologies and processes have evolved to where they are at your current workplace. | 2024-11-08T07:35:02 | en | train |

There is a recording of Ingmar Bergman’s production of The Winter’s Tale held in The Theatre on Film and Tape Archive. Amazing!Alas, because of union agreements, you can only watch it at the Lincoln Centre, and with the prior permission of the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Not online. Outrageous!!Bureaucracy and ideology triumph over common sense and the public’s ability to watch historic recordings of Shakespeare performances. I don’t expect very many people to care, but it ought to be changed.All of the below information comes from the Introductions to the New Cambridge and Arden editions.In 1969 Trevor Nunn directed a famous production in which Leontes was presented as a typical modern 1960s father, playful with his son and happy to go on the rocking-horse, a child-ish man. Lighting effects were used to show the Polixenes/Hermione dynamic as part of his hallucinations. The white stage which symbolised innocence in the nursery at the start became the asylum of his rage. This was a Freudian production, focussing on Leontes as a Peter Pan. Critics at the time asked how, if Leontes could be excused by this syndrome or psychologising, there could be any high tragedy in the play. This interpretation remained dominant for decades. The man-child view of Leontes accords with modern folk-psychology, though not necessarily with the words of Shakespeare’s play.The Winter’s Tale is pastoral, a development of the earlier festive mode in which ordinary social customs are suspended for a period of revelry. There’s no time in the forest, and the usual constraints of class, authority, and manners are loosened. There is no Jacques in The Winter’s Tale, no cynic; instead, the pastoral mode is a depiction of “great creating nature”. In August this year, the New Yorker published a report about family estrangement, about adults who cut off their parents. Sometimes for reasons of physical abuse, sometimes for the abstruser reasons of “toxicity”, and sometimes because of incompatible world-views. The Winter’s Tale, along with Tempest, Cymbeline, Pericles is the opposite of these views. True pastoral is not about psychological healing, but moral and emotional reconciliation.Shakespeare’s pastoral began as a festive mode: courtiers go to the forest and frolic, forgetting time and social custom. In these late Romances, written after the great tragedies, pastoral is less playful, more sincere. Time calls us all: we must forgive while we can.In the modern reading, as the Arden editor says, Leontes’ weakness or insanity turns tragedy into melodrama. And melodrama is a very apt word to describe modern culture. Leontes is wicked. Unless we accept that—and accept what it might mean about ourselves—we are not reading this play, we are merely reassuring ourselves with it. | 2024-11-08T21:53:27 | null | train |

Today, we will explore five of Git's hidden gems. These advanced features, often overlooked by even seasoned developers, showcase the depth and flexibility of Git.
We will cover:
Git Bisect
Git Rerere
Git Attributes
Git Notes
Git Worktree
Whether you're a solo developer or part of a large team, understanding and leveraging these features can take your version control game to the next level.
Hop on board the Git train! 🚂
1. Git Bisect
Git Bisect is a powerful debugging tool that helps you pinpoint the exact commit that introduced a bug in your project. This feature is a great example of how Git can be much more than just a version control system, offering valuable debugging capabilities as well!
Imagine you discover a bug in your current version, but you know it was working fine 3 months ago. Instead of manually checking every commit from the last 3 months, you can use Git Bisect to quickly narrow down to the exact commit that introduced the issue, potentially saving hours of debugging time.
This command uses a binary search algorithm to efficiently narrow down the problematic commit, which can be incredibly useful when dealing with large codebases or long periods between discovering a bug and its introduction.
Here's how it works:
First, you need to inform Git of a commit where the code is working correctly (the "good" commit) and another commit where the bug is present (the "bad" commit).
Git then selects a commit that lies halfway between the two points you provided and prompts you to confirm whether the bug is present in that commit.
This iterative process continues as Git narrows down the range of commits until it pinpoints the exact commit that introduced the bug.
Here's how you can get started with Git Bisect:
$ git bisect start
$ git bisect bad # Current version is "bad"
$ git bisect good <good-commit-hash> # Commit that is known to be "good"
# Git then checks out a commit for you to test and you mark it as "good" or "bad"
$ git bisect good # or git bisect bad, depending on your conclusion
# Repeat until Git identifies the problematic commit
$ git bisect reset # to end the bisect session
Git Bisect offers a visualization option that can be quite handy. You can use git bisect visualize to display a graphical representation of the commit history being analyzed.
You could also write a script to automatically test each commit, for even faster debugging. You would then execute it by typing git bisect run ./script.sh.
Git Bisect offers a wide range of powerful subcommands. You can explore the complete list of features here.
2. Git Rerere
The name "Rerere" might make you chuckle, but if you find yourself dealing with the same Git conflicts often, you will love this feature!
Rerere stands for "Reuse Recorded Resolution"; as the name suggests, it allows Git to remember how you've resolved a merge conflict so that it can automatically resolve it the same way if it encounters the same conflict again.
This is particularly useful when working with long-lived topic branches, as you may encounter the same conflicts repeatedly.
To enable rerere, you'll just need to type the following:
$ git config --global rerere.enabled true
Once enabled, Git will automatically record how you resolve conflicts and reuse these resolutions in future conflicts.
This command is usually run without arguments or user intervention, but you can learn more about Git Rerere here.

3. Git Attributes
Git Attributes enable you to define attributes for paths within your repository. These attributes can control Git's behavior for specific files or directories. They're especially useful in projects with mixed file types, cross-platform development, or when certain files require specific handling.
They allow you to customize Git's behavior on a per-repository or even per-file basis. These attributes are defined in a .gitattributes file that you can add to the root of your repository.
This feature can be quite useful in a couple of scenarios. Firstly, it allows you to specify to Git which files should be treated as binary data. For example, certain text files (such as those ending in .pbxproj from Xcode projects) should be treated this way because their changes cannot be merged, and viewing the differences is not really helpful.
To instruct Git to recognize all .pbxproj files as binary data, you can include the following line in your .gitattributes file:
*.pbxproj binary
You can also use this feature to compare binary files, such as Microsoft Word documents! You can use the diff key attribute like in the following example:
*.docx diff=word
This command instructs Git to apply the "word" filter to any file matching the .docx pattern when reviewing a diff with changes. The "word" filter needs to be set up by downloading and installing a program like docx2txt, that can convert Word documents to text files for accurate diff comparison.
Finally, you can also use the merge key attribute to use different merge strategies for specific files in your project. This is quite helpful when you want to merge a branch ignoring certain files, such as a database file.
You can add the following line to the .gitattributes file:
*.db merge=ours
And then define a dummy ours merge strategy with:
$ git config --global merge.ours.driver true
In this scenario, database.db will remain at its original version.
A lot more could be written about .gitattributes, so we encourage you to check its documentation here.
4. Git Notes
Git Notes enable you to add or inspect notes on objects. Think of these notes as comments that you can associate with objects (usually commits) without changing the object itself.
These notes can be helpful for code reviews, providing context to automated processes, or as reminders for yourself or your team.
To add a note to the current commit, type the command below:
$ git notes add -m "This is a note"
The command above will work for the current commit, but you can also add a commit hash to reference a specific one.
To edit or remove a note, you can use:
$ git notes edit <commit-hash>
$ git notes remove <commit-hash>
You can view a commit's notes by typing:
$ git notes show <commit-hash>
You can learn more about this command here.
5. Git Worktree
Git Worktree is a useful feature for developers who frequently switch contexts between different parts of a project or need to perform parallel operations on different branches.
It allows you to work on multiple branches simultaneously without stashing or committing partial work. Git Worktree also makes it easy for you to build or test different versions of your project concurrently and perform long-running operations on one branch while working on another.
Let's imagine you are working on a feature branch, and suddenly a critical bug is reported on the main branch. With worktrees, you can:
Add a new worktree for the main branch.
Navigate to the new worktree and fix the bug.
Commit and push the fix from the hotfix worktree.
Return to your original worktree and continue working on your feature.
Before we see how to get started, here are some considerations to keep in mind:
Changes in one working tree don't affect others until they're committed and pulled.
It is not possible to have multiple worktrees on the same branch (each worktree can be on a different branch).
If you are dealing with a very large repository, be cautious of the amount of disk space being used (although all worktrees share the same .git directory to save disk space).
Now, onto the fun part!
Git worktree offers two main ways to create a new working tree:
Creating a new branch: When you use git worktree add <path> without specifying a branch, Git does two things:
It creates a new branch named after the last part of the path you provided.
It checks out this new branch in the new worktree at the specified path.
Consider the following example:
$ git worktree add ../hotfix
This command creates a new branch called "hotfix" and sets up a new worktree for it in the "../hotfix" directory.
Using an existing branch: If you want to work on an already existing branch in a new worktree, you can specify both the path and the branch name:
$ git worktree add <path> <branch>
Here's an example:
$ git worktree add ../feature-work existing-feature-branch
This creates a new worktree in the "../feature-work" directory, with the "existing-feature-branch" checked out.
These options give you flexibility in setting up new working areas, whether you're starting a new task or continuing work on an existing branch.
You can list all the worktrees you have created by typing:
$ git worktree list
Finally, to remove a worktree, you can use:
$ git worktree remove path/to/worktree
Git Worktree can be quite a complex command, as it offers many features. You can check the full documentation here.
Final Words

42,054,777 | yungtriggz | 2024-11-05T20:13:58 | Show HN: Remy – an AI agent that finds the best clips from the world's videos | Remy is an AI agent that finds you the best clips from the world’s videos in real time.<p>The Problem:<p>Remy was born out of a simple frustration I had: after taking the Gordon Ramsay Masterclass, I realised I had already seen most of the content scattered across different YouTube videos over the years.<p>However, after going back to scouring YouTube to compile all of the videos I was interested in, I found that most of what I was looking for was buried in much longer videos. So, the question became: Why isn’t there one place to find every clip I’m looking for, no matter what video it’s hidden in? From that, Remy began to take shape.<p>The Solution:<p>We’ve since developed fast, powerful video search and understanding models, designed to save you time and effort by finding you exactly what you asked for, no matter how niche or specific. Remy searches across billions of videos in seconds, letting you iterate and hone in on the clips that matter most to you.<p>With real-time clipping, Remy looks for the best clips for your search every time, not just the closest clip we have.<p>How Remy Works:<p>Clipping long-form videos into short-form content isn’t new—tools like Opus, Klap, and Veed.io have helped creators do this for years. However, the clips that creators select to maximise engagement often don’t align with what you’re specifically looking for - but the content you want is still in those videos! We’re introducing consumer-focused clipping, tailored to what you want to see, for the first time.<p>Remy combines a chat interface with our video search engine. Just tell Remy what you’re looking for—whether it’s a specific person discussing something, a topic, or a comparison—and it will pull up the precise moments you asked for, from YouTube videos, interviews, podcasts, etc.<p>The result? A seamless experience where you’re only watching what interests you, and finding it in a fraction of the time.<p>Why Remy is Different:<p>I know, chatbots are feeling a little overdone - but sometimes they can be useful and we think that’s the case here. Remy’s chatbot form combines conversational and iterative search, powering focused rabbit-holes.<p>Remy doesn’t just search over an index of videos that we maintain, it also has web search capabilities to get the most up to date videos as well. We use Remy to ask questions about changes in San Francisco politics, recent sports games, and new music that’s coming out.<p>As your searches evolve, Remy understands the context and narrows down results in real time, finding clips that otherwise might be buried deep within hours-long videos. Have questions about a clip it found? Just ask in the chat and get answers rooted in the content Remy found for you.<p>Some Of Our Favourite Queries:<p>“The history of Le Gavroche and the Roux brothers.”
“Stories about the writing of The Lord of the Rings”
“Tell me about a sea animal I probably didn’t know existed”<p>What You Can Do with Remy:<p>Catch up on current events - “What’s going on around the world today?”
Explore personal stories - “Gordon Ramsay talking about his relationship with Marco Pierre White.” or “Mark Zuckerberg talking about the impact of social media influencers”
Make product comparisons - “Show me the differences between Oncloud Ultra 2s and Hoka Speedgoat 6s … Show me people just talking about the pros of the Hokas over the Onclouds … Now just people talking about the tread pattern of the Hokas.”
Trace artistic influences - “How did A.G. Cook influence hyperpop?”<p>The Bottom Line:<p>Remy finds the exact moments you’re searching for, no matter where they are in a video, or how deep Google’s SEO has hidden them. Spend less time sifting through content and more time getting to the clips that really matter. With Remy, the perfect clip is just a chat away.<p>Try it out and let us know what you think!

Milt had attended law school but never practiced law. He went right into a trust and estates department at a leading bank in Cleveland Ohio, where in the 1960s he became acquainted with private investments and that led him to doing deals with some of the earliest VCs. In 1970, he and Bliss started Euclid Partners and that's where I got my first job in venture capital. Milt taught me so much about being a minority investor, being a great board member, balancing responsibilities to our portfolio companies and our investors, and so much more. Three of my partners at USV are former lawyers, John Buttrick, Andy Weissman, and Samson Mesele. are great investors and great partners.I have helped quite a few former lawyers move from legal careers to working in startups. I have found that they are often great business partners to early-stage founders. They can take on many roles, including finance, HR, business development, business operations, and, of course, legal. I am not entirely sure what it is about a legal education, but I feel that it prepares people to be effective across a range of activities.I have run into business leaders who see a legal background on a resume and pause. They think it is a limiting background. I feel the opposite about it. I see it as a sign of range and capability. Particularly with people who left the practice of law early or mid career.So if you need someone on your team who can take all of the administrative functions off your plate and run with them, consider a former lawyer. It is a bit of an unconventional move, but I think it is a strong one. | 2024-11-08T10:02:49 | en | train |

Jurisprudence

As the United States collectively holds its breath in awaiting the results of the 2024 election, the U.S. Supreme Court may be entering a particularly perilous moment. Historian Timothy Snyder, whose new book On Freedom was published in September, joined Dahlia Lithwick on this week’s Amicus podcast to discuss why an upside-down conception of freedom, and the facts-optional framework of originalism, could be the court’s undoing in the aftermath of this election.
Dahlia Lithwick: One of the values you discuss in On Freedom is what you call “factuality.” This Supreme Court seems totally untethered from factuality. You wrote, in advance of the court’s ruling in Anderson (the case to remove Donald Trump from the ballot in Colorado), that if the majority based the ruling in originalism, “it would be a judgement based not on law but on guesses about the moods of strangers” and that it would be “as far from intentionalism and textualism as the justices could get.” For me, that was such a useful way to think about how factuality has been eroded by originalism, and textualism, and strict construction, or whatever the theory is, because it actually isn’t fact-based; it’s guess-based or maybe Ouija board–based or séance-based, just not based in any fact. I think one of the reasons we’re so far down the rabbit hole is that we have a Supreme Court that doesn’t actually value factuality much at all.
Timothy Snyder: So, first of all, with the Supreme Court and factuality, apropos of this coming election, one thing that worries me is that their lack of contact with factuality has to do with their own social positioning. I think at least five or six of them are in a world where they have a very narrow set of social contacts with America, let alone the outside world, and their notion of reality and normality is highly constrained, sociologically.
I thought Anderson was really important. I was sure they were going to blow it in some fundamental way, and of course they did, but the deepest way that I could characterize what they did was that they were just kind of making stuff up. I worry that their separation from factuality has to do with their separation from a country where some of us actually don’t think that’s OK.
This makes me worry about what they’re going to do after November, because I think they’re in a patron–client world, where the facts don’t really matter and the Constitution obviously doesn’t matter to them. I worry that they don’t understand that there really are Americans who are not as cynical as they are, and that one of the facts they don’t understand is that many of us actually do care about the rule of law. Ironically, one of the facts they don’t understand is that if they do something like, if they rule as stupidly on some Trump, Georgia case as they have in the past, I think there are a lot of Americans who, regardless of what you or I or other experts say, are just going to think, Wow, that’s not acceptable anymore. We’re going to have to do something. And that something is the kind of thing that involves undermining the authority of the Supreme Court.
I don’t think the majority gets that. I think they’re separate from the world to such a degree that they’re cynical to the point where they have become naive. I think they’re naive in that they don’t understand that there are people who actually care about the things that they only pretend to care about.
That sets us up for a problem after November. When they pretend to be ruling on originalism, that allows them to make some judgment about what Americans would do or not do. And that’s cheating, because they’ve said the whole time that that’s what they’re not supposed to do. Then, since they don’t use any actual method or research for those judgments, it’s entirely their seat-of-the-pants opinion about what Americans would do. So they’re doing the thing that they’re not supposed to do.
Then there’s also no reason why we should believe their judgment about it, or even believe that they believe their judgment about it, because they’re just kind of making it up.
I read your section on free speech through the lens of the current Supreme Court and its First Amendment jurisprudence. I was so struck by the ways in which this court has been crowned as the most speech-protective court in the history of the United States, but it’s freedom from constraint; it’s speech-protective. Insofar as corporations have free-speech rights, it’s really useful. You argue that the very notion of the marketplace of ideas is itself so utterly fanciful and corroded that the notion that we just take away constraints and the good ideas unerringly rise to the top has to be insane, right?
What the majority has done is they’ve taken this insane libertarian view, which is not actually consistent with any thoughtful freedom-of-speech tradition.
So the stuff that actually makes it to the court is very filtered. It’s an extreme privilege to get your stuff all the way up to the Supreme Court. The people whom we care about in a serious freedom-of-speech tradition are the people whose cases never make it to the Supreme Court.
We associate freedom of speech with what the Supreme Court says. We’ve all been co-opted into this framework where we’re worried about the most privileged, the corporations and so on, as if that’s really free speech. The Supreme Court has hoodwinked us, because that’s not really what freedom of speech is about at all. It’s not even about corporations. It’s not about the most privileged. It’s about the least privileged.
Pushing the logic of negative freedom further and further so that free speech includes corporations and money and so on, that isn’t actually being a free-speech radical. It’s doing the opposite, because when you give dark money the right to participate in the elections, that’s suppressing the right of everybody else to be informed and to have a voice.
I’m personally going to declare victory when you and your colleagues stop saying free speech, because there is no such thing as free speech. There are only free people and free speakers. There may be freedom of speech, but there’s definitely not free speech. I think free speech is an anti-freedom-of-speech meme, because when we think that it’s the speech that’s free rather than the person, then we’ve already taken a big step toward saying that an utterance by a corporation, or an algorithmic utterance, has to be protected. The algorithmic utterance does not have to be protected. Only the person has to be protected. So I think the very term free speech is part of this libertarian negative-freedom mistake, and I’m going to try to make people stop using it.
