It is possible to gain an understanding of the concept and their relationships to one another. Dong you want quickly first what came to your mind and up on to ooty I mean, or is it Are great with him on one hand I don't think to be honest I don't know has happened to us or is it nice and I think as a countryソkشan chant in Africa Maybe venues beuk shý always do this býkouse wide was Bom energes balls really John Let's each play its parts as it should be I don't think that and we have personal choices and people can decide to do whatever it is that they want to do But let's not now make each one, yes they can be what's the symbiotic so to speak But at the same time I don't think that we should hold on tightly to one and say because I'm a Christian Of course I'm a Muslim because I practice Hinduism This is what it should be Don't whatever else it is that my culture says No I don't think we should do I think we should respect our culture and our traditions I'm a very, I stand culture and tradition in who looks actually Interesting Utti, what do you think? I think that it's that That we have eroded our culture Funny enough for an import Let me put it that way It's so easy to misinterpret things It's so easy to go overboard Because I think that's also the area where we are playing in Nigerians are not known to do things by halves We go to extremes right But it's funny how when other countries who have preserved their culture We love to see it, we love to watch the whole pump and pageantry When the queen was being buried When all of these things It's all down to culture right Wasn't it a few weeks ago When the new British prime minister When the old picture of him was circulating Of him actually putting down I think it was lighting candles or something At the front of the house on Downing Street So we've successfully eroded our pride in our culture Now because also We really are not passing down A lot of the significance of these things People don't understand it right And typically what you don't understand Or what you don't have knowledge about Is easy to be misled They are part of our culture, no doubt Our original religion is not Christianity So they are part of our culture to be Or different, should I say, traditional religions That have negative connotations But if it comes down to our different tribes and cultures It's a representation of who we are And we have voluntarily given it up Even language is not being passed along But a lot of these things we are losing And it's just sad that we don't understand How much of our identity we are giving up By doing these things and imbibing other things And these things should be mutually exclusive They shouldn't really be impacting each other But like I said, it's easy to go overboard All in the name of how you interpret one thing And replace it for another I want to say more, but as we go into the discussion The relevance, what would I call it now The relevant explanations or examples can be given Can come up, right? So I was just going to ask Because again, this is supposed to be a man of God A clergyman, you know, given this kind of conversation So what do you think the major reason is For why it is so quick for religion Because yes, the question is Should religion override our culture And clearly we have established that no, it shouldn't be They should be able to operate on their own You know, separately We should be able to do the religious thing When you need to do it And do the cultural thing when it needs to be done But all the time we see that if given an opportunity A lot of people would drop culture And pick up religion Why do you think that is? Because again, I'm trying to wrap my head around You know, what was that factor What makes it so easy for you to sell religion Quickly and people buy it faster That they would buy culture and cultural abilities Where is that disconnect? You want to help me? We teach it Is that? We teach it So for you to, for me the answer to that question In the disconnect is We don't teach the reason for the culture So like the example that he was given Right? What is the story behind Or what was the tradition That led to palm wine being used You know now, if you take that whole marriage example For example What we think about is a white wedding What we think about is how we get married But let me even take it to a different culture Let's take it to the African Americans Back in the day when they used to get married What did they used to do They used to just jump over the broom That was the sum total of their marriage ceremony Today they've infused that into their own church wedding Where you would normally see when you watch the movies What do you see When they finish, when they want to turn around They would put a pretty broom on the floor And they would jump over it That's the culture that they preserve Right? The understanding of the history of That was the only way Because they were slaves They belonged to each other Right? They belonged to their masters That was the only way Between themselves They could make a covenant to say We have chosen each other That was their culture They preserved it till today And they understand the history behind it It's the same thing for us If you ask now How many people I'm sure when you are getting married Who are they telling you one rapper They put one beat here They told you go They told you come Sit down here I'm sure in all of that You were just watching The significance of it all You probably had no clue You probably never stopped to ask your mother Why did they do this? Why did they do that? As much as I loved my culture I think I wanted to sit down And go and research And say okay There's a lot of ceremony When it comes to Secure traditional marriage And I needed to understand what it was And it was a very interesting bit of research And it just came up with a competition For my sister She really liked this outfit And I said no This is not our outfit This is the edo outfit And I said I had to school my sister And I realized Halfway down Even me myself Part of my knowledge was missing So a lot of the times We don't understand the significance Behind why we do what we do So how can you be connected to it It is what you understand And you have a connection to That you will preserve And because for us now The thing we have put our Fitched our attention And the thing that we understand And the things that we are Actively learning about Is now religion Subject interpretation Because again It does what it told you And how you take it And then which extreme You are going to take it Absolutely Because I just want to make One biblical reference Even if the good Lord Turned water into wine I just leave it there You know I mean it's so interesting It's really spot on Because again I'm just thinking in my head In a week In a week You learn something or two About religion There are some churches That they have Tuesday And Thursday service Some churches have Wednesday and Sunday service Right Then even for some churches They go the extra mile To have like Like foundation classes I know I've attended I have I attended from 100 level to 400 level Classes Believers classes in my church Right 100 level to 400 level This is like Four weeks of Or even two months Of 100 level to So like To multiply that By the number of levels That I've attended How many people Right Can go into and say This is a school of culture Right For instance now The Edo culture A school of Edo culture Where you are learning The culture And you are asking questions Just like the way You will study the Bible And everything So I think I mean it's really spot on Why people are accepting More of religion That the cultural parts of You know what we have Chinello You wanted to say something I was also going to say Civilisation has also Happened to us as well So people are no longer People believe Oh, if you now If you believe in certain I'm trying to think of Any particular culture That is peculiar to certain tribes now Let's just Any particular culture You can think of Any particular tradition You can think about People then think Oh, because I'm civilised Because I now live in Lagos Because I'm in the city I shouldn't be caught Practicing this I think civilisation Has played a very big role In shifting people's mindsets From culture And tradition now To practising religion Basically You see When you say civilisation I laugh I chuckle Because it reminds me a bit Because I hear That my Bini history I pardon myself In case I blunder But I will go back to read it But I hear that You know When the white men came Into the Bini kingdom then They saw those lamps On the road The street lights So when you talk about Who saw the idea To us that our culture Was uncivilised Right? Who saw that idea to us Because when you say civilisation I'm wondering We were very civil We were very organised We were very You know I mean Help me out here Because I don't understand Who saw the idea That culture is not a When you are practising Your culture You're not a civilised person Maybe from the From the oceans of days Yes So again It is not down to what First of all Let me chuckle Back chuckle a little bit Who I remember The conversation we were having At the Was it two weeks ago And we were born in blackness The story has been propagated In a way that it Benefits the propagators of the story Now In the absence Nature abhors a void In the absence of information Something else will fill the void So we have actively as a people Bought into the concept that Our culture is not Right I mean Not only would doesn't help Because not only would too Are shaped At least a generation Of people Who now see traditional elements As fetish And this is not to say There aren't fetish ones And negative ones But we've sort of created This negativity Around what should be preserved So we've essentially Absorbed somebody else's culture And culture is learned It's not a culture of what We've all come together To accept and invite this culture Now that our ways Were wrong Our ways Were bad Our ways Were negative Right And because we are not Let's even just take the most Basic part of our culture Let's take language How many children today Speak their native dialect You won't try, you speak Hausa But think about Our generation Our own children How many of them today Speak the language In a way that My mother was very particular about You must speak your language If you don't speak your language You don't have an identity How many people are In viewing that into their children today That is just language So if you don't even have language How do you even want to Learn more about your culture Take what we wear today As traditional outfits We've left our traditional outfits Beyond the bright What we saw today Is we are showing foreign styles With local fabric Wait, wait, wait So do you want me to come tomorrow And tie up my chest Because that's what traditional outfits look like Adam, man Really Don't give wrong your way And we check with the MBC code See, listen You know me I can come out naked If you allow me Take what we wear to work today Is a good example again Right What, if you Can you tell me that A man that is wearing Natives Like up and down Doesn't look smart But we've defined our own dress code As suits and tie Is it ours? No It's in this key And in this weather Should you be wearing suit and tie Let's take it Why they're not inside their feet But so you just want to mean We've left the culture We've accepted somebody else's culture And that's what has become learned And we've allowed ours to be eroded Because you go to other countries And you go to castles That are hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years old You walk through, you take pictures This is somebody that These are countries that They will say they are western world They are first world countries But they preserve that culture They preserved it for decades Absolutely Let's take a break When we come back from the break We'll continue the conversation And we'll open our phone lines Stay with us, we'll be right back Alright, thanks for staying with us Now if you just tuned in It's our ladies night out And we're discussing something Really interesting We're asking should religion Overwrite our culture Now please let's hear what you have to say Remember you can join the conversation Send us an SMS Or WhatsApp to 08-1-803-4663 You can also tweet at us At Weissho I've got one of the hashtags Weissho Our phone line is now open Remember turn off the volume Of your television set When you're calling us And the number to call Is<PHONE_NUMBER>9 That's the number to call Alright, so I mean This is a very interesting conversation Uti, if you leave me We are my rapper Tight on my chest We are my bitch And I will come here As long as you people don't Yank me off air But I'm good But hey And I think I get where Uti is coming from Because I know that now Even us as parents Our generation We are teaching our children Mandarin We are teaching them German We are teaching them Spanish We are teaching them French We are forgetting That they have traditional languages Local languages That they are not I mean My children struggle with Learning the Yoruba language In school So they were so happy The last one That just moved on To senior secondary school Was so happy to drop the language Because at least you You are not obligated To do it once Once you have passed GS3 As simple as that language Somebody has sold it to us That is not We sound barbaric We sound uncouth We sound You know all of those things Right So now People are dumping You know What they are supposed to embrace And embracing What they are not supposed to embrace Again Religion Why it is now A lot more even acceptable Most religious body What do they use In passing the message They pass the message In English language You see your pastors Wearing They don't wear the traditional outfit If pastors are wearing The suit and the tie The pastors So it is kind of Like now hitting home Why You know You would see that People would naturally Want to just drop everything Culture because It seems like And again You don't hear gory stories Of ritual killers Of all these people using Like maybe there is a death In the land And they have to bury With some heads You know Go and get virgins And all of those kind of things Those are the stories That they sell About culture The other good part Of the culture Like for instance Now Why do we have to wear the beads When we are getting married In the Edo culture Do I know No But I wore it anyway So now When we are having this conversation And I am beginning to now Hear these things It now gives me Okay Yes A clearer picture To understand that This is why You are not appreciating What you have And that is most times What you see Is people that lived abroad Or are still living abroad Right They appreciate and they value Our Not only Not only our food Our language Our dress Every single thing They value it more And appreciate it more Because they have seen The western world That some of us Have not been Previous to see And they know that There is something richer You know, back home I was also thinking I mean Like I said At the beginning of this show I stand culture and tradition I tried the good part of it I mean all those parts of when Somebody else I was speaking to my friend I said Okay, we are talking about Culture and tradition So when we say In Igbo land for example In the past When a man dies They say his brother Then covets All of his belongings And his possessions Including his wife That doesn't make any sense Why should a woman Be compelled to do with another man Who she didn't love in the first place Because that is culture Or that is tradition So things like that I think have been Those are the ones That they are now Trying to You know, let's go But at the same time I think Maybe this is why People have also moved on From culture Because now The Christian religion Or the Islam religion Has come to tell us that Oh, it doesn't have to happen That one man on wife You know You can just leave Because if your husband dies You can go ahead To marry somebody That does not have to be Your husband's brother You know So people are now Moving to religion Because if you say More comfortable place To be That justifies Every other thing That you think is right In their head So Let me come to you I like the example That Chinelo just gave Right And I still come back To the why In those things So it's like In the past When people had A lot of kids were Because they needed People They needed Two months Let me put it that way To work their farms So they needed large families Right It's the same thing I don't know what the history is Behind that But there will be something There will be a reason Why that was the rule At the time Because It's very easy to think If you buy the narrative That we were barbaric Right And a lot of the time The old stories are not told From our perspective When you watch Stories like roots And you watch all those movies About slavery It's always told from The perspective of The white man Right How much of that perspective Is told from our own side There are very few movies I think Twelve Years a Slave Very few movies That actually focus on Where and why The kind of people that we were Before The so-called White man came And gave us mirrors And shiny things And guns And whatever We had our traditions We had our cultures And we were running fine We had our empires Some of that history Still filters down today I mean I know we talk about The What's the king does My and all the wives The only Of ife And how in today Today's world It sounds ridiculous To marry those That many wives Right But it's culture It's what they are trying To preserve Before we get to where we are today Where you now are trying to juxtapose The law of religion Versus the law of the people Versus the law of the land So we are all trying to find A balance of which one We want to strike And culture is a living breathing thing So it's constantly evolving Around What we are experiencing What we are living And what we are doing So we are almost in What I would call The culture of religion now Religion has become A driving factor for us It's part of it It's ingrained in our culture now So you can see it now In pitting these things Where people are saying I don't want to drink I don't want to use palm wine I have even In some of the conversations That I have had in the past If you look at the traditional Marriage ceremony Normally they would pour Some of the gin On the floor For the ancestors Even that Some people will say You are invoking this You are invoking that So I like the part where The priest said The priest said If it was that If that was the real factor Then all of you would not be here Because they have been doing it For generations Before you came So sometimes we also need To stop and think And ask the why Because the why is so important When we don't query it When we don't ask ourselves We just accept that Oh, they said it's wrong Or they said it's not And you don't ask why It's like being sheep The sheep dog just pushes you And says Oh, go into this place Because that's what the farmer wants Whether the farmer wants it Because he wants To kill the sheep Or he wants it Because he wants the sheep To be fine And he can share the wool And make money The why of the farmer And his dog Trying to hurt the sheep The sheep don't care They just do what they're told So what questions are we asking What are we Are we truly understanding The impact of our culture But we don't have enough examples Was it when The Olu of Ray was being crowned I think I learned I closed so many gaps In my knowledge of my culture That the why Because one of the media houses Had a Shekiri historian Who was talking us through The entire process So much that was learned In that experience Why can't it be taught Why is it not being passed down And it's funny Because we come from a culture Of storytelling But even that culture now Is lost I mean it boosts it down to do Once upon a time Even that was lost now Exactly Because now TV is taking TV is taking over How many local stories And the local stories That we are watching The Nolibu Zanko They are helping to erode The culture just as fast The only thing they show us About culture these days You see that funny man That has the look and say With the red clothes And you know He's just going there to do juju So that has just It has created that impression So even kids now They feel like Anything that has to do With the village Or anything that has to do with Is evil Is evil And talk about the evil forest The evil days The evil that That's as well For Nofuti What you said about the Oluwobori You know When Because I know him personally And I would never have thought That he would want to take up That position Knowing the kind of religious background That he has They are actually very good Christians Christians So I was surprised When I heard that He was not going to be Coronated the Oluwobori And I asked I'm like Okay so all of the traditions Of him being You know He's secluded for a while They have to do certain traditions Is he going to do all of those things And that's what he said to me Of course If he doesn't do those things He cannot be crowned Oluwobori You know And he didn't open my eyes Because I didn't saw a post That he had put up And then his wife Had also put up saying They had gone through this process They had gone through that process I'm like Okay interesting to see that People that are actually religious Are willing to go through these things So I like the word You just use now So are we Are we Breeding religious people Or we are breeding spiritual people Do we have Because again Spirituality Is completely different When it comes to Practices of religion There are religious practices But the spirituality of it Is what is lacking Because now again A lot of churches A lot of all these people Are just focused on their activities The spirituality of the You know The individual Is missing Is a big gap And that's why we have a lot of problems Where we have today You know But hey Who are we Would you Would you really look forward to having Like a school of culture Definitely Definitely A school of arts and culture It's very important Do you see when we go to Western countries So to speak And then you see You visit a palace Or you visit a castle And then you see Those ancients It's beautiful to see right So why can't we have Those kind of things in Nigeria Where people come And then you see Where there is culture That's actually preserved It also goes And I think it boils down It affects us in every way It even affects tourism For example These days People are not looking for What's going to places like Olumorok Yankari game reserve Afi mountains Because they just feel like What is there to see What there is a whole lot to see If you go to these There are those caves When you go there Then you hear the stories Of how people used to hide How people used to do It's amazing I think people A lot of people need to Begin to encourage And you know Accept this culture And look forward to You know Preserving and seeing these things Because it would even increase Our what's it called now Income Or should I call it GDP in Nigeria So we have It's something we should Actually encourage in Nigeria Uti, how about you If you were to advise Government to create A school of culture How would that school look like I mean So I mean You guys know I went and found the teacher To teach my child Because Not that I can't speak it But I'm just not patient Enough to teach And I wanted him to learn So I also learned It's been spoken in my house So I don't necessarily know How to write it properly Or how to read it properly So I wanted to If it's only that For the 500 and something Plus languages That we have in this country Teach our languages Let's even document Let's leave history Because history is A very sensational topic In Nigeria But let's even Document our traditions Right So a lot of the times These days What do we do In traditional marriages Even that culture Is not being passed down again Why Because now You have people that Have turned it into a business So once you have An alaga The alaga understands That's the person conducting The traditional marriage Right Speaking for the families That person is the one That knows All the rights and traditions now Right So even some of the older ones Don't even know the traditions So if you didn't have That person present To say okay This is what we do now This is what we do next That gap was You understand that That gap was What created that job That job function That not enough people Knew this culture So somebody had to come And essentially be an efficient In what should be your tradition In what people used to teach Their children To say When somebody wants to come And marry This is the culture This is tradition This is it Now it's left to a handful Of people Who are passing it down And earning money from it But this should be something That everybody in your house Knows how to do Do you know how to break Colour not Do you know What to ask for What to expect The elders themselves Is getting lost So even if it comes To do those things Back to the question Language Teach the culture Of Even if it's just the marriage Ceremony Teach the culture Of you know Burial What is the real history Behind it Why were these things Being done In some places They throw you in the water I'm from south south They throw you in the water To know whether you had Any hand in the husband's death In some places They shave your head There were reasons Behind all of these things We can now In knowing the reason Understand that Something is now outdated So we no longer need To understand What we understand Yes We understand it And we say Okay this was our culture But this was the reason why It's just the same way Today We are the twin capital Of the world But this was also The place where they were killing twins Absolutely And you know The funny thing is that For us now We were circumcised You know as girls And you know I mean Growing up now You now come back And look at it and say Okay this You know this And this and this So there is What's it called Advocacy against Female genital mutilation Right I mean those things Because again The idea for circumcision then Was the fact that They didn't want promiscuity So that was the rationale That was sold That girls that were circumcised Were not promiscuous But now What's it called It defiled all of that Because It's promiscuity happens Regardless Whether you're circumcised or not I mean so Those kind of cultures I get you Uti We then re-evaluate them And see okay Which one is serving us Which is no longer serving us Let's quickly take our comments I think we ran out of time Okay So this one is Austin from Delta And he says This is a controversial topic Culture is the identity of the people About the language The food, the dressing And the dance There's nothing wrong Using permwine for traditional wedding But my concern is that Most religious bodies Don't know where to draw the line Come to think about it It's the traditional marriage Where dowry is paid That is approved That is approved White wedding is just complimentary However Some cultural practices Should be jettisoned For instance There's a culture where a male visitor Is offered to sleep With the host's wife Yes Should we continue to allow that You can do it now No please Wow I didn't even know that Some Christians take chieftain to titles And when they die Crisis arises As pastors and kingsmen clash On who will take charge Culture is good Wife is true Christian It's important to draw a line And don't get tangled The cultural ties That will subject your spouse To undergo torture In the name of culture Please think and strike it So that part of burial There's always an issue And that one is from Tiv The TV people Once you go to their homes They will give their wives To you as a gift If I was a man But Ute Let me hear your comments Good evening So my comment Good evening My dear beautiful sisters Of ways Should religion override our culture The answer is no We should not ignore our culture No matter the religion We believe and belong to The earlier we begin to teach Our children and our culture The better They should be taught Their mother tongue Which is very important Some clergymen and pastors Should be careful With what they tell Their congregation Congratulations to ways On your third anniversary How time flies I've never expected To be a fan Of you beautiful ladies You are wonderful And amazing That's why you've been A great and amazing host Of this show Keep it up I really appreciate you So thank you Daniel Thank you For consistently Watching the show Thank you Daniel Go ahead Ute Finally Actually it's just interesting All the different examples That we've given That burial one That one is from Tiv Too many things Burial at that time Is a time of grief You don't even know Right But there's so much I remember when My mother passed And I was supposed to notify The people In the neighborhood Where her house was That she had died And they said Oh no That I couldn't just inform them That I needed to write That I needed to bring A bottle of gin in my mind I was like Are you guys crazy? I have a million I want this to deal with That I'm supposed to come And then Like do you know what I mean But when things were done I had to do it When the dancers came From the village I paid you to come They said No You must go to the bus To use gin and cola To call them down from the bus I'm like Are you guys kidding me? Well So I think Yeah So I think We've had a very good conversation today Because The crock of the matter Is education Behind why things are done Maybe to help Give a better perspective But thank you so much Uti Thank you Chinelo We've had a fantastic conversation Now before we go And show you Follow us on social media Hola Social media handles That way show Africa You can interact with us Further drop a comment More importantly Follow all our engagements And social media like Share and invite your families And friends to watch And follow the conversation Alright So if you missed our quotes For the day here it is again Day who seek religion For culture's sake Are aesthetic Not religious And will never again Will never again That grace which religion Adds to culture Because they never can have The religion Okay We'll see you guys tomorrow At 8pm Also bring another great Conversation to your screen Enjoy


New Question Types in Moodle 3.0 There are new question types for the quiz activity. These are Select Missing Words, Drag and Drop into Text, Drag and Drop onto Image, and Drag and Drop Markers. In the Select Missing Words question type, students choose correct words from a drop-down menu to complete a piece of text. In the question setup, the words the students must find are replaced by numbers, and the words to be selected are added in the choices below. Students then select the correct words from a drop-down menu. The Drag and Drop into Text question type uses the same interface, but when responding, students choose words by dragging and dropping them into the selected blanks. In the Drag and Drop onto Image question type, students position text, images or both a background picture, and in the question setup, the teacher uploads this background picture and then chooses either text or a smaller image to be dragged into the correct locations. When you add the draggable items to the drop zones, you simply move them to your chosen location and the coordinates are updated for you automatically. The Drag and Drop Markers question type also uses the background image with text markers, but in the question setup, the teacher manually specifies the area for the drop zone using grid lines on the uploaded picture. The drop zone can be in the shape of a circle, a polygon or, as here, a rectangle. And what's different is that there are no visible clues to help the students position the markers.

So, when y'all... Are you still signing to Def Jam or no? No, I haven't been signing to Def Jam in a year. Okay. So, what happened? I mean, because it seemed like when I started researching you, it seemed like it was a time where you just kind of fell back. Yeah, but with Def Jam, it was more like a little like... We were signed individually, but they wanted to keep doing like Molly and Brooke. And like, we are our own person. Like, I don't want to do Brooke and she could do Molly, but we not know group or nothing, but that's what they wanted to do.   I wasn't doing nothing. So, they didn't have no choice. Tell me how you guys end up connecting with Def Jam? I had posted a video on Twitter, a live video. And it had blew. It had got a million views. And A&R had hit me in the end. And you told them, hey, what about Molly? No, they had... I had gave them my manager information. Who was your manager at the time? Got a TV. Okay. I remember those guys. I seen them. Yeah. And then they had hit him up. Oh, they still managing you? Mmm. Let's be real now. This boss talk 101.  So, good is my manager right now. Okay. But my contract about to end, so I'm going to go independent for a leave by myself. Well, not really. I'm trying to get there. I'm trying to get in there. I already had them DM'd you. You didn't answer me.  I didn't see it. Bruh, I DM'd you. I DM'd you. I DM'd you. Nigga, it's a trip how y'all be doing. Y'all think y'all better than somebody. You gotta DM me again. No, no. I DM'd you, bro. I promise you. And I said, oh, she ain't going to answer. I remember you telling me. I DM'd everybody, dude, like Erica Banks. I DM'd her before she even got, at least she answered that. She answered you. Yeah, at least she answered that. You too much. No, I DM'd people and I'd be like, oh, they already DM'd me. Like, I don't receive anything. No, I understand. I know already it's a lot of people. You probably get a lot of DMs. Yeah. Yeah, but I had lost my Instagram, so I don't be getting that much no more. But that's what's up. I DM'd you. I was like, I'm going to see what's going on with her, because she ain't doing nothing in a while. I'm being nosy. I just started back working. Like, this year has been, like, the most work I did for myself, but I just really ain't dropping nothing yet. Well, that was after, and that was after Water had left off him on here. And I did not know, I didn't even know you knew him until after he had passed, because you started posting like crazy.  I didn't even know. You know what I'm saying? So, tell us a little bit about it. We gotta get into that. I mean, as far as what he meant to you. So, how me and Water first met? Like, that was just my friend, you know? Like, we always hung out. How long ago? I seen him on the video. Like, when y'all was doing y'all videos and stuff, I would see Watery on there.  But, I met Watery. When he lived in San Antonio, that was probably like a long time ago. I don't remember what year it was. I don't know how to explain it. How did you meet somebody? How did you meet him? Because you was really low-key with it. Like, you wasn't saying nothing about it before he passed away. I didn't see no pictures like that. Them pictures went crazy. Well, because it's a lie to it. Me and Watery, it's a lie to it. Like, tell us about it.  Which I wouldn't know. I mean, like, why was you so secretive about it? I wasn't really secretive. Like, I went, like, I've been in Watery's videos. He's been in my videos. Like, we've been lobbying each other. I post shit, like, when we all together, just not know.  Like, we just really ain't do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We go, we'll go post it together, but we ain't really on, we don't really post each other on Instagram, like that. I get it, I get it. Especially if you know Watery. You know, like, it's not, it's not gonna be all that. Yeah, yeah. Well, I just, I just know, I love seeing the chemistry when you posted it. Thank you for that, for me. Because I was just getting annoyed, you know what I'm saying? So that helped me to see, you know what I'm saying? Okay, you know, this side of him. Because, me and him, we had great conversation there. One of my favorite interviews by far, my course was tripping. You remember, right? Yeah. So it was a great interview. And I didn't get to, you know, we got to talk about a lot of things. On my platform, it's a lot of God come out. So I just thank God that I got the opportunity to speak to him. And it was something that was real, from a real place. Most people don't take the time. The first thing, when I heard that it happened, I asked my wife, I was like, did I get to say something to him? You know, to give him something. Because I know God like I do. You know what I'm saying?  You know what I'm saying? So I definitely enjoyed the interview. What's up with you and this little girl? Don't you got a little girl? Yeah, I got a daughter. Her name's Scott. Yeah, I seen that. How old is she? She's one. Oh, well, wait a minute. And Scott, who's the baby daddy? Yeah, nigga. Okay, buddy is not. Buddy is not her dad, first of all. Wait, we're not gonna speak. No, you're gonna keep it. No, it's not private, but like, that's not my people. Well, people called me and told me who the daddy was already.  That's my kid, though. I get it. Ain't nothing wrong with that. He is your kid. I get it. Or she is your kid. So what's up with the music? I mean, when we go here, a project, do you say you're going independent by yourself? You want to show us what a little bro can do? You nervous?  No, I'm not nervous. But you dope. You dope.  I love it. I promise. Thank you. I'm not nervous, though, because like, even though I haven't dropped music by myself, I still record by myself. Like, I have a lot of songs that I'm gonna drop, but I don't know if I want to drop a tape to drop in videos. You got your boys with you. I'm gonna tell you something. Them niggas working. I love the way they get down. Yes, they be working. Some niggas working. So if you have another opportunity to sign with a label, would you? But how much money? Like, a million. If they give me a million dollars, like, yeah, okay. I would sign. Yeah. I get it. So when you go independent, you're gonna come, we're gonna do a project together. Yeah, I think you need somebody to invest. Let's be real. Yeah, investment is good. It's hustling. It's just like shooting dice. It's like, okay, let's do something together. And then you move on. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. But you're scared, huh? You're like, I'm not scared. I'm not scared. I'm not. I'm not scared. But like, working with people already, like, people are trying to tell me what to do, like... Hell no. I don't care what you do. You're young. I'm old. Niggas, I don't know what you do. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like, I can't do what you do. So that's the good part about it, right?   That's why I be trying to explain to people they'll be trying to, like, just be open. I'm like, I'm young. Like, I know what's cool, like, all day. I'm not going to do that. So that's what they was trying to do. They was trying, like, Def Jam was trying to critique you on how you would do things. Yeah, just, like, maybe be different. Like, it's like dress girlier and do all that. Like, I'm not... I don't want to do that. Like, I'm girly, like, get my eyelashes and get my nails done, but I'm not. I don't have to... Just, like... No, I just... They had Renita Spencer on here the other week, the one that sung The Bar Baby with Big Mo, and she's revamping herself, and she says that she tried on American Idol, and they wanted her to dress, you know, real skimpy, and, you know, not wearing much, and she says she didn't want to do it. And that's why she didn't, you know... How do you do... How far would you go? Like, would you mean... And trying to create a character to be successful? I just don't want to create a character. That's, like, my final, like, decision. Like, I'm not changing. Like, people like me for me. Like, people like me being cool.   So, like, I don't got to change.  So you're saying that the person that you are through your music, and the person that people see, that's who you are all the time? Yeah, I mean, like, yeah, I'm cool all the time.  Like, all these...  Like, the dancing, and wearing two pieces. You can have your background dancers for that. I don't know about background dancers. Like, I'll be so specific on what I want.  But a lot of times when you sign up... Like, the dance routines on stage, I feel like I'm not doing it. What? Can you dance? I'm not finna dance, like... You don't dance. I'm not finna do all the dancing. Money is right. I promise you, they put them... Yeah, because you said you signed for a million, and a lot of times if the label is spending all that money, they're gonna tell you what they want you to do. For that meal ticket? For the meal ticket? No, for the... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.  We don't talk about something about that, but... I don't know. You don't know if you can do it. So tell me about Lil Boy, and how did you end up doing that by yourself? Um, damn. I don't even remember recording Lil Boy. I think I was in L.A. I was up all night with this girl, Ladi Luna. She a producer. So I was just at their house. They got a narco house in L.A. And I was just chilling at their house all night. So I just recorded this. I was mad. I don't know what I was mad about.  I was mad. So I had made a song, put it on Instagram, whatever. So yeah, I shot a video. So... And so when you done it, how comfortable did you feel? Like, that's what you're about to do. That was my hardest song to record. And that is the shortest song ever. Because that was, like, one of... Like, not the first song I recorded by myself. That was, like, the fifth song I recorded by myself. And it was halfway decent.  Like, this first thing I did by myself, that was good. But now it would be so easier for me to record by myself. Like... You like it better this way. Really? So will you guys ever get back together, your mom? Yeah, we got music together. We got music. We didn't drop together. Uh, she be sending me songs. I'd be doing verses to them. I just, uh, got to drop my own stuff first. Yeah. Is she in Atlanta or where she at? Nah, she live here. Okay. I seen her on Off The Poets. I said, maybe she moved to Atlanta. I don't be knowing her. But no, um, you guys got a great chemistry, too, though. Mm-hmm.  For you to even do what you guys have done, you should be very proud of yourself. Because some people will never be able to do it. Some people will never get a deal. Even niggas out here is trash. No. Some of them do it. So I want to know. So, you know, we were talking earlier and you said you're shy. And everybody is saying how shy you are.  Uh, I'd be shy before I do that. Before I get on stage or whatever. But then, like, you know, just be turning up on stage. Like, you listen to music in the choir type sheet, so it'd be different. But, like, when I got to talk, I'd be nervous. Nervous? Yes. Hmm.  No. All right. So what's the difference with that compared to when you go on stage? The song got already done. They don't got it. They don't got to hear me. They don't got to hear me trying to, uh, like, mess it up and having to redo it. Would you be punching it? Yeah, I'm punching it. Okay. But these are your friends. These are people who accept you for who you are. They love you regardless. I know. But, like, that's how I learn to record. I'd be hearing them record and they'd be punching it.  I'd be listening to them. So then, when I go record by myself, I'd be, like, punching it and think about it. I'd be seeing what they do. But recently I had learned to record myself. So now I'd be way more comfortable by just recording myself. Because the good thing about having people around you when you're doing certain things, yes, you mess up. But these are all the people who are in the industry who can also help you and tell you, you know, what, try this, don't do this. You know what I mean? So you can get better. If they can't see what you're doing, a lot of times you can't, you know, get that critique. Yeah. Yeah. I'll get used to it one day. Who would you like to work with? I mean, if you could pick anybody. Damn. Anybody. Anybody. Anybody. Young boy. Oh, you want to work with that nigga right there? I don't want to work with that young boy. Young boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That nigga locked up right now. Yes. Yeah, he can't. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You go, stop playing. Yeah, shout that out. Yeah.  That's what's up. I've been there. I get it, you know. So, young boy, that nigga is got, really he might have, he number one right now, locked up. Yeah. That nigga fly. I don't, I think it was, it was saying it was like, only three other people to do that while it was incarcerated. That's what, you know what I mean? Yeah. That song is hard. It's fun. Yeah. Yeah. The whole project, man. Things, hey, man, listen, man, time has changed. So, let me know about Texas, man. What was that Texas thing about with you and Marley? The song, Texas. That's the song. We have recorded that video when we had our album release party. Okay. So, where we record that? Paramount, you know what Paramount is? Yeah. Paramount Studios? Mm-hmm. We record that in Paramount. I don't really remember recording that. I remember we was working on our album though. Yeah. And we just had shot the video because we had had a release party and everybody was there and we had shot the video. How hard was it being in the industry? Because I've had a lot of girls on this show. That's right. Yeah. And the biggest thing they say when they're trying to, you know, they have to, they go through so much trying to do their music with the way it is in the studio. I'm not playing. This is what they're telling me. So, how hard, have you had those experiences where it was like tough to even deal with just being in the industry? Mm-hmm. I want to say, go on and tell it. I want to say it was tough because like the easy part is like I need my hair done. I need my makeup done. Yeah. Like I need a studio session, you know what I mean? But the hard part is like I'm trying to drop some music. Like can I shoot a video? Like, all right. Yeah. So, I'm talking about Forrest Giles coming on to you too. Let's just go and be real. Yeah. You can't get no damn work going and these niggas are all in your... And it'd be the old me. It'd be the old me. It'd be the old me. It'd be the old me. Yeah. And like work at the label, like just being weird. Yeah. I'd be like really like... They make it seem like you can't get nowhere unless you talk to them. Yeah. But I'm hard on anybody.  You still. Okay. She can stand up for herself. That's what you're trying to say. It's coming out. Where? Yeah. Yeah, you're dead. He's black. My momma taught me to see. No, no. That niggas in you. I ain't going to play with it now. Did you say your momma go hard? Yeah. Momma... I mean... I mean... She cool too. No momma will cool like... She white... Me and momma's way different but... Aight. Already. I love momma. Like she cool, she... So do you think that... Let me ask you this top three artist of all time. Did or like... Ann & John runt. Oh you already done watched the show? She like, oh okay. Like she really got it. No I just... So I got YB number one, YB, Polo G number two. Okay. And my number three, number three always the hardest for me though. Everybody do that when they come on here. Number three. Can I have four? No. No. It's the top three artists of all time. Okay, what is the number three? Hey, we gotta do that one, man. I definitely, I definitely, y'all didn't ever do nothing together though for the music, did you? No, but we have a song, we did, I did a song like one of my first songs with them. It's like Barrio, Flip, Wadi, Dolo, me and Molly. Man. They never dropped. That's the only thing we ever did. But y'all got it. I don't. I don't think I got it. I don't think I got it. I was 17. Yeah, I was young, I was the kid, but I could probably find that. I could probably find that. Yeah, but that's a dope experience that now you would really wish to have and keep for a long time. Yeah, I wish, I was too shy to ever, you know, but how you think that song came out? What song? The one that you did together as a group. 17. 17. You said that you were young in the business back then.  Probably if I listened to that her now, I'd be like, ooh, I said I'm bad. Cause when I listened to my old songs, my voice so loud, squeaky, like. Yeah. So if you could go back and talk to the 15 year old you, what would you say for us to help her to understand what she was about to face? What would you say? Nothing. You wouldn't tell her nothing? Damn, no advice, nothing? Everything. You posted the advisor at least, right? Everything that I done, then through, and went through, baby. And you ain't gonna tell her nothing to prepare. You just gonna say go for it. What type of person are you? You ain't gonna be like. Maybe like go to school or something. That's what you're talking about. You gotta tell her to go to school. Is school important? Be honest. Not to me. School, not important to me, like I never needed school, you know, like I didn't graduate school, like, but I would want my daughter to graduate school. Why?  Yeah, but, well, you know, I'm gonna be honest with you, it's all about what your destiny is, how you fulfill it. I think you can do anything you wanna do, period. Yeah. I mean your mind gotta be strong. Yeah, when I was in school, I was so busy, like my, when I was in like 11th grade, I was so busy, like I was always going out of town, like I could not go to school.   So when you, so do you think you ever go get like your GDs? No, no, no. You ain't in trigger? No, I don't need it. Because you know how you say you'd love for your daughter to finish school, cause I know some moms will be like, you know, if I'm going to tell her to go to school, I need to at least have my GD as well. No, she gonna listen to me.  I got daughters, man.  She not gonna listen to you. No, I'm saying she's not gonna listen to you. She's not gonna have no choice, like me. You can say what you want to say. She might go up into a point, but yeah, she gonna, yeah. When she get older, yeah, she gonna get out. Did you listen to your mom with everything? Did I listen to her? Hell no. No, I didn't, but that was me. That was the same. My mama wasn't as hard as me as I'm gonna be on her. You don't, man. I'm not gonna be too hard on her. You don't know how hard she gonna be with all the stuff she sees. Stop playing, man. But she not gonna handle me. No, she gonna handle you. She's not gonna handle me. I'm just gonna be an easy job. I already know it.  No, I already know what I'm gonna do. She not gonna be hard on me.  She gonna come at you. When she's my age, when she get 16, like we're fist fighting if you play with me.   You don't want no more. Whatever. One and done. Let me tell you something. People say a lot. Okay, I love to say anything. Y'all hold me to this. I know a girl that's been 10,000 others. I've never had a kid in my life. I promise you gonna have a kid. I promise I won't. You crazy, you young. That's no way. Okay, do you think she gonna, she ain't never having no more kid? She already know I've been told, we talk about this all the time. You better be getting fixed or something. Nigga, y'all gonna slip up or something.  Because you're not married. I'm not married yet. You had to have three babies. I agree with the white folks on that one. Yeah, they right on that one. You don't need to be, yeah, yeah. You still young. We gotta be productive. Nigga, we need soldiers.  Nigga, stop playing. I'm not having no kids. So where does little Brooke see herself in the next two years?  We gonna talk dancing, this is in richest blood. How you gonna get to that money with the music?  That's cause the brand is important, right? So music, is people really making money in music like that? Let's be real. I'm coming from a real place. I know some people make money from music. Okay, all right. And they, regular, regular. I think about it like the brand, you know what I'm saying? Like the whole brand, not just the music itself, but the whole entire brand. I think all of it is ways to make money. So I think the whole thing matters. But just music, I don't know. Yeah, not. Cause 4,000, listen, listen, a million streams is $4,000 on Apple, isn't it? On Apple. I don't know. That's a lot, nigga. That's a lot. You understand what I'm saying? But that's a little money. That ain't a lot. Yeah. I'm just telling you, go real fast cause you gotta keep marketing yourself, right? Yeah. But you do get that money forever, though. But even though it gets smaller and smaller and smaller, you still get the money. So it's somewhat residual. So I get it, but. It's still hell, but you always gotta do more. You gotta brand.  You know what I'm saying? So next song, where's the video shoot gonna be at? What you doing? When are you gonna put something out, man? I'm looking at your Instagram and all that. I really don't just be seeing the music dropping like that. Where is the music at, lil' Brooke?  I seen it? But I'm just saying, that ain't enough. We hungry out here, we gotta eat. That's gonna be the first video I shoot. Okay. When is it going down? Everybody on it. You better put it together. That's why I wanted you on the show. I hit the cameraman being yesterday. So I told him I'm gonna find today and we gonna do that.  This was my perfect opportunity to get up in there. Everybody asked me, do you still rap? Do you still rap? I really be offended, but like I can't be offended cause I really ain't dead yet. Ain't no work. So I'm looking. That can make you push harder.  Really? Like I get money off features. Did I know we can still go?  Gonna let me, ain't gonna be dancing all in my videos. Oh God. Gonna let me do my thing. That's me. You know what I'm saying? I'm just, I really, I've been pulling up in some places and talking to some people and I'm good with this.  Who gonna run off? I'm not a jakey. What you think? So, hey, so, hey man, we love you man. We appreciate you for coming on the show, man. Appreciate it.  You gonna be late next time either. You gonna come back right? Yeah, I'm gonna be on time. I know it. You coming back to Boss Talk, don't you? Yeah, I'm gonna come back. Don't play. I'm gonna come back for sure. Say man, hey, we appreciate you. We love you.

All right, thank you cookie chase 5k. We got it on a cool down with Joseph. How you doing? Good. What what what place did Papa get? Got the got the W got the W in the 5k. I'll tell you the time here in a minute. Oh man. Good die. That's a good good way to start the season. What's that? I think we should head back. Okay, let's head back. There we go. We got the goods cookies. Here's your overall winner. Set the mourn in 1533. 24. First place, Mila Chamberlain from Golden in 2007. Second place, Haley Paz from Winnetecco 2152. And third, Erin Bird from Littleton in 2302. All right everybody, we got we got Ryan here. Awesome, Ryan. How'd you do today? I'm pretty good. Yeah, I felt good. Ryan found the channel. What how long ago? At least like a week or two. Okay, so he's a newer subscriber. Thanks for subscribing. Awesome job today. Thanks for coming up and saying hello. It's good times, man. Well, are you doing any other races this spring? It's like snowboarding. It's a good day. It's a good day. Cookie chase 5k. Inaugural year. Come back next year. The W, Michael. Fly the W. I think that's what the Chicago Cubs say after they win. Fly. I know they don't win. They don't win too much. So he got to celebrate. Yeah, two loves from Chicago. Oh my, my crushed it. Nothing like a little steak after a hard solid effort. And that was the rust buster for 2019. And yes, I think it's good to have goals at the beginning of the new year. Goal number five, goal number five. I want to, this is a carryover again from 2018. Win another race. I like, I like it. That's, that was a good incentive for me to train hard in 2018. So that's going to be another one. I was able to pull it off once in 2018. And I want to try it again in 2019. That's right. At the beginning of 2019, I laid out six running goals and one of them was to win a race. It's nice to get that one out of the way. Just nice to get it out of the way. All right. The last time I raised a 5k was up in Greeley, Colorado four to five months ago. Crazy. It was November. I went back and looked on Strava just a minute ago, November 22nd, 2018, and I ran 1556. So today managed to pull out a 1533. So this is good. A 23 second drop in time. And it's not like, it's not a huge drop, but that's sevens. If you do the math, that's about seven seconds per mile. That is not bad. We will take it considering again that you know how I, I'm not that excited about doing speed work on the track. So we're just getting those legs slowly going in 2019. And I do just want to make a quick shout out to Ryan, to Dave, to Tim, to Rod, everybody that came up and said hello afterward. That was awesome. Thanks for saying hello and a shout out to everyone on Strava. You guys are amazing. Thank you for all the support there. Okay. And so how did the race actually play out today? It was awesome. So I don't know. I haven't even looked at the race footage yet. So I have no clue what it looks like, but I just shot, shot out to the front, right from the gun and a little, little tip of the day use, if you're in the lead, use the, the pace bike, the lead bike as a pacer, just try and chase down that bike. That's basically what I was doing. Shout out to Brett. Thank you, Brett, for some of those clips today. And yes, I was just trying to chase down that bike the whole way. Basically, I took it out and it's an honest course. It's rolly. It's not hilly, but it's like, it's got a few little rollers in it, so it's not completely flat. And according to, to my watch and according to Strava, I don't know if this is accurate. It said I had a 195 RPM. So that's the cadence of your feet. And that seems a little high to me. I have an older son to watch. But anyway, one of my goals for today was to have my RPMs as high as possible. So I would say that I met that goal usually, I don't know, it seems a little high. I, I, you know, who knows with technology sometimes, but that was a good thing. And basically at the two and a half mile mark, so a half mile to go, that's where I, you know, that's basically the point where I was like, okay, I got to start digging because it was starting to hurt right around the two and a half mile mark up until then though, I felt pretty strong. I guess I should tell you the splits. Okay, so the splits were 449, 456, 454, and then held that 454, 454 right through the finish line. So that's good. I mean, that's about where I expected it to be. I knew in my mind I wanted to be running faster than last fall. So that was a mission accomplished. And what's interesting in two days from today, so Tuesday, I'm going back to that same park, and I'm doing my nine, the next threshold run. So it's been two weeks and the goal for that nine mile threshold will be to be, to basically hold my Cleveland Marathon race pace goal. So 518 to 520 right in that window. And outside of those splits that I just shared, I don't have too much else to share with you about the race, except I'm going to be really excited to see what my formed look like. I'm going to go back inside in a minute, upload the footage to the computer and just kind of study like, okay, are my knees driving well? Are my arms like staying straightforward as opposed to crossing the body too much? Look at my foot strike as much as possible. So that'll be good. And speaking of foot strike, shall we talk for a second about the Reebok float ride, run fast pros? How did they do today? As you know, this is a three ounce shoe, three ounce shoe with a three millimeter drop, not a six millimeter, three millimeter drop, and a very, very lightweight shoe. What is my takeaway? And a shout out to someone, one person. So yesterday I posted a picture on Instagram and then also on Snapchat of my, my kit for the race today. So what was I going to wear? My singlet, my half tights, my shoes, and somebody noticed no socks. That's right. I decided to pull an old school move. I haven't worn, it's been since college, since I went sock free in a race. And I got a little tiny blister on the top of one of my toes, nothing major. You can actually see a little, a little bit of blood there, a little carnage from the race. It's, it's going to be fine, but they felt good with no socks. I like, for short races, I do like going sockless. And here is my takeaway about the shoes from today's race at 455 approximately per mile, 452 ish. I didn't even notice the shoes were there. And it's, it's like, if in a longer race, you can settle in a little bit, even a 10K, but especially a half marathon marathon, you kind of settle in a little bit. You start to think a little bit about more things in life. And maybe you think about the shoes in a longer race. Well, today it's such a short race. They didn't even cross my mind. Like I didn't, it didn't even dawn on me to think about my feet. And honestly, I think that is a good sign, meaning they were not a distraction. And there was no like major, okay, these shoes are helping me go really, really fast, nor, okay, these shoes are not working at all. Like it just, I didn't even think about them. And that's probably because they weigh three ounces. So you don't even know they're there on your feet. But at the same time, I didn't feel an incredible energy return. It was just me and the road just digging, just digging. So that's like, that's my takeaway from the Reebok float ride, run fast pros is they felt, they felt good, they felt great, but I didn't even, I didn't even cross my mind. So I'm not going to even apologize about that. That's what racing is all about. Focus on the task at hand. And when I take these out for my next workout, whenever I choose to use these in the next workout, I will be thinking more about how they are performing. So that's my thought on the Reeboks. Okay, moving on. Key word is going to be rust. That's right, rust. Why rust? Because this was a rust buster for 2019, my first race of the year. It's very exciting. And the question of the day, did you race this weekend? Or did you do a long run? How was your race or long run this past weekend? Let us know the distance. How did it go for you? Where did you race? Where did you do your long run? Was it extra hard? Did you feel strong? Did you feel a little weak? That's okay too. So let us know how your weekend racing and or long run went. That would be awesome. Let us know down below. And good solid day. It's good to start the season off on the right track. Seek beauty. Work hard. Oh, work hard. And again, thanks for everyone out there that came up to me and said hello. That was a lot of fun. I love each other. See you tomorrow.


My name is Jordy. I'm going to talk to you about something called change set evolution in Mercurial. Mercurial, as you probably know, is like one of the alternatives to Git. The idea of a change set evolution is that you can edit commits together as a team. If you want to follow my talk, by the way, there is a URL there you can clone, htclone, he.active.org, evolve, dash talk. That's the repo for this talk, where the source code is, just in case you're curious. OK, so in order to tell you what Mercurial is doing with evolution, with change set evolution, I want to speak about the problems it's trying to solve. So there are a few problems, we think, with the way people collaborate right now. They're not very big, but they're problems we like to fix anyways. So the first problem is recovering from an upstream rewrite or a rebase. Now, in the Git man pages, it's written like this. Rebasing or any other form of writing a branch that others have based work on is a bad idea. Anyone downstream of it is forced to manually fix their history. This is from the Git rebase man page. So let's just quickly see what this problem is here. Suppose you wrote the two blue commits, someone else wrote the two red commits. Three red commits, I'm sorry. You haven't actually pushed your blue commits. You're working locally. And that other red person on the public servers decides those red commits are no longer good and turns them into the orange commits. And then what happens here is you have a bit of an annoyance here.  So now you have to go and your blue commits are no longer good either, and you have to rebase them on top of the orange commits. This case is pretty simple, but in general it can get pretty complicated. And if you go look at that very same Git man page, it's actually a pretty complicated thing, and it goes on and on and on. There's a bit more things here to go. So in general, it's a complicated problem. Even though that example was simple, in general, it's pretty complicated. So that's problem number two. Problem number two is that some commits just plain should never be rewritten because they're a historical record. And you want your historical record to be good for several reasons. You want to get blame. You want it to work correctly or HG blame. You want to be able to know who did what.  So you want a clean historical record for serious reasons. If you rewrite history, well, then you're as bad as Stalin. If you're rewriting history, you're bad as Stalin. You should not edit people out of history. A third problem is how do you safely share your commits with other people? Now, the problem here is you want to be able to undo, if you rewrote something, you still want to be able to undo. And you also want to be able to not cause problems for other people. So there is a story that I like. Jenkins accidentally did Git push force to 150 repos on GitHub. This happened about three months ago. And they had a lot of trouble fixing this. They had to contact GitHub support. They had to contact each other, like, hey, who has the last commit? It went around for a while. Eventually, that got almost all of it correct. There were a few small repos they didn't care very much about, and they were never quite sure where the commits were on those last repos. But they got almost everything correct. And when this happens, well, Reddit makes fun of you. So again, the three problems is recovering from an upstream rewrite. Some commits should not be rewritten. And you want to safely share commits with each other. Now, the goal is that to provide a clean, consistent UI to solve these problems. In Mercurial, we are very proud of providing a clean UI. We want to make things easy for users to do. We want to make it just easy and clean. So evolve is what allows us to do this.   The first one is just amend, which just amends a single commit. Next we have fold, also known as a squash. It puts the commits together. We also have reorder. Actually, we don't have it yet. I'm working on this one, but it's almost there. This one just reorders commits. Previous and next are for moving on the DAG, the directed acyclic graph.  You just move around to make more editing. Pruning is for getting rid of commits. Uncommit is for getting rid of a commit, but keeping the changes in your working directory. Restore is, if you already edited a commit, and it's part of already it's gone, it's for getting it from the garbage. Now none of these commands are actually all that new, because they're already pretty much implemented, already mercurial, without Evolve. What Evolve does is it provides these commands, and they work in slightly different ways, which I will get to in a bit. But they're already there. Sorry.  It already exists. Fold and reorder can already be done with ht hist edit. Previous and next can already be done by updating to the parent or to the children. By the way, that notation on the right with quoting in the parents and brackets, those are refsets. Pruning can also be done with ht strip. Uncommit can be doing with ht strip dash dash keeping your changes in the working directory. And restore can be done by unbundling the strips, the strip backups. Just for the get users in the audience for reference. Oh, sorry, one more thing. And these are very scriptable. The nice thing about these, I mean, one thing we don't like about hist edit is that you have to create a plan file and the plan files have to say, order, pick this commit, reorder this one, delete that one, and then edit that one. We don't like the plan file very much. We like these commits because we don't want to be able to script these things very easily. People actually build tools on top of Mercurial and they like our command line because it's very easy to script it. And for the get people in the audience, I'm just going to give a quick translation for get. A mend is also called get command dash dash amend. Fold and reorder can be done with get rebase dash i.  As far as I know and correct me if I'm wrong, there's nothing simple for next in get. You have to go digging through the ref log or the log to figure out which commit you want and then go to it. You check it out.  If I get this right, right. Is it mixed? I think mixed is the default. There's soft, mixed, keep, merge. I don't get them. I think merge is the default. OK, and for restore, there's no single command that restores. You have to go dig through the ref log, figure out which one you want, and then move your refs around until they get to where you want to be. And correct me if I'm wrong. I don't think there's a simple way to just say this one without actually looking at the ref log. I guess you can parse it. Now there's also a shiny new command in hd evolve that does magic. It's called hd evolve. Now what this command does is it basically fixes any problems. If someone rebased underneath you, it actually knows where to go and puts you in the right location. And this is what solves problem number one. Now what about some things that are set in stone? That's pep8, pep8 send stone. So for those things that are set in stone, how does evolve handle these problems? We have something called phases. So certain commits are public and immutable. So once a commit goes to a public server, it can no longer be edited. Some commits are draft. When you're sharing it between friends, these are drafts. And there's an understanding that these commits can still change around. So let's see how this works. How does that look? OK, so first I'm going to clone the code of conduct from the official Python repository. I'm going to go into the code of conduct. Let's see what we have here. There's only two commits, very simple repository. There are three files, the code of conduct, the license, and the read mean. Let's set up two bookmarks, one for upstream and one for me. The dirty bookmark is going to follow me along. Now the code of conduct is not word wrapped, so I'm going to word wrap it. This fold is a GNU fold command unrelated to HG fold. This is just word wrapping, the code of conduct. I'm going to get rid of the trailing white space.  And now the code of conduct is for Python, but we're going to edit it, and we're going to call it Cobra. And we're going to change Python to something cooler, which is Cobra. So there we go. And now we just added two commits. You'll see that my bookmark is up there. Majority, there's a bookmark upstream down here. So these are the commits originally that were there. I added two more. The actual changes that I made are the Cobra communities made up of members from around the globe with a diverse blah, blah, blah. That's just the change you can see it. Now, but the Cobra is not really a community. It's a command. The Cobra command is not a community. I just added another commit there. Just to show you, now we have three commits. And there's a two there at the bottom still. But I made a mistake. Command should be capitalized. So I'm going to make that. And I'm not actually going to make a new commit here. I'm just going to amend the last one I made. That's all. I made a change, and I amended. And now that commit, I still have the three commits. But now notice something interesting here. If you look at the revision numbers, which are just local, remember, I have zero, one, two, three, and then it skips to six after that amend. Four and five are missing. And we'll see in a bit where those commits went. Now I'm going to go to the previous commit. So just to show you, this little at shows me where I'm standing. I'm standing right now on commit number three, because I went to the previous one from the six. And I'm going to make another change here. I actually forgot to edit the readme here. So instead of the Python Software Foundation, it's the co-recommender HQ that wrote this document. And there's also the abbreviation, which is now the CCHQ. Just to show you, this code of conduct was approved by members of the co-recommender HQ during the April 2013 vote. And they must be approved by the CCHQ's board of directors. And now I'm going to amend this one.  And this told me that I have a new unstable change set. Now because I'm amending a commit in history, you'll see that this commit, three, got amended into commit number eight over here. And it's being marked here on the graph with a little x, like as it's dead. That commit is no longer good. But now this gives me an unstable change set over here, change it number six. So in order to solve this problem, all I do is hg-evolve. Boom, it fixes it. It knows that six and eight have to be fixed around. It moves things around. Everything's magic. And everything gets settled out like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, you can still update everything this next. Now let's see what happens if we try to prune upstream. Now prune upstream, that was a public thing. I grabbed it from the public repository. What happens if I try to get rid of a commit? I don't want whatever Brian Curtin did. It says, oops, I cannot do it. Cannot abort immutable change set. It's immutable because it came from a public repository. OK, let's go back to my slides here. OK, so just I showed you how this handles problems one and two. Problem one is about recovering from upstream rebase. That just hg-evolve. It's magic. Actually, there's a lot of logic behind it, but for now it's magic. And then there is problem number two about immutable commits. But what about problem number three about sharing safely? This has all been local so far, but once you start pushing and pulling, then it gets more messy, right? And what was going on with those revision numbers skipping around? So what happens here is that what evolve is doing is it's creating a meta history on top of the history. It's creating another history that says it's only adding ever-adding things to it. It's never actually deleting anything at all. It's just adding more stuff to the history. So what happens is that the pre-edited commits, before you rewrote them, they still stick around. But they're only marked as obsolete, and they're only shared when they have to be shared. And commits may be obsolete by another command that overwrites them, like a commit knows, OK, I'm obsolete, but that commit over there is what replaces me. And fold and squash, for example, and amend are commands that do this overwriting. Or commits may just be plain obsolete and have nothing to replace them. They just say, I'm obsolete, but I have no successors. And evolve those how to propagate all this across clones. So I'm going to try to show you now with another little cute diagram that I made. So suppose that there are two users, lefty and righty, and they're having a private server. This server is marked as private, so it's fine to add stuff in it. And lefty here, first clones, gets the exact same thing as what's in the server, of course. And lefty doesn't like the green commit. If anyone's colorblind, green is that one. Lefty doesn't like the green commit and turns it into the yellow commit with an amend. And then doesn't want to actually keep the blue commit around, doesn't actually want to rebase anything, says the yellow commit is good enough, I just get rid of blue. And then lefty pushes these changes back into the central repo. Now, the central repo gets an information. It gets information that green and blue are now obsolete. And yellow is a successor of green. Now, when righty, over here, clones, righty only gets the non-obsolete commits. If righty really wanted to, there's also a poll, everything including the rewritten ones. They're still in the server. But most of the time you don't care about that, you just care about the final result as you're rewriting. So obsolete commits gradually fade away from history as they're being shared around, because they don't actually get pushed or pulled unless you really want them. The final result looks like this. So let's see how Evolve does this. Okay, so back here, remember that I cloned as commit from, I mean this repository from the Python repositories. I'm gonna clone it again, but this time I'm gonna put it in a code of conduct other. I hope everyone can see that. I'm gonna put it back up there. So a new clone from upstream. I'm gonna push, right now I'm standing, I'm standing right now on the original one that I cloned. I'm gonna push my two bookmarks, Jordy and upstream, into the other one. That added the three change sets only, and my two bookmarks that I just created. And now here is that other option that Evolve adds to mercurial, dash dash hidden. So this is where all those commits went. So now you see that we have them all here. From zero to one, and then all those Xs there on the right are where I was overriding things. There was even a temporary amend commit that wasn't even made explicit. But this is the commit that edits this commit. So it's all saved there. But in the end, I only get these that are not absolutely. And now let's look at the other repository. And when we look at the other repository, there are actually no hidden commits here. When I pushed from the original repository into the second repository, the hidden commits did not get pushed. Now, notice that here on the second repository I was standing on the upstream bookmark right here. Because when I push to it, it doesn't change where I'm standing. It doesn't change the working directory when I'm standing, it just adds more history to it. So I'm just gonna move to the top. And what I'm gonna do now, just as an example, I'm gonna fold the last two edits where I redefined the Python code of conduct to the co-recommander code of conduct. The syntax should look familiar from Git. This is, I'm folding the Geordi bookmark and the predecessor of the Geordi bookmark into a single commit. There it is, it's folded. Now there's only one commit. So you see that, now I only have two commits ahead of upstream. Again, we see that there is a skipping here under revision numbers. There's more hidden commits that we just don't care about at the moment. And I'm gonna actually show you what the actual change is. The P is for showing the patch, the V is for verbose. And co-recommand is made up of members from around the globe with a diverse set of skills, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And this actually includes the changes to the code of conduct.rst and the changes to the readme that I made as well, which I folded together. Now let's go back to the original one and let's pull. I'm pulling from the one that I just folded them together. Now after I pull, I mean it says the usual things, but the interesting part that I wanna show you is that the bottom says here, you're working directory parent as obsolete. You pulled something that changed history around you. Well, we get out of this mess the same as before. Well, let me show you first. I'm standing right here. Now nine and eight just got folded into 10. So it's telling me you're standing on an obsolete commit. I just do HT Evolve and Evolve figures out that all it has to do is just update. You just have to update to the correct one. If I look again, I'm exactly like the other one.  Okay, so just final summary again. The three problems are recovering from upstream rewrite. This is solved by the HG Evolve command. Some commits are restored record and should not be rewritten. That's solved by the phases. Evolve knows which phases are public and which are draft. You wanna be able to safely share commits across repos and that's done with obsolete since markers. That's all.


These are Valorant's best Yoru tips and tricks and today I ranked him from S to D tier. Clip number 12 will change your game. Free essential Yoru mechanics. You can not cast your gate crest on top of boxes. However, if you first put down your clone, then certainly it is possible. It costs a lot of abilities, but it might be useful.  Now it looks like it would affect the clone TP. Very underrated play. There'd be a blue spot on the ground, but maybe the enemies won't notice it and easy flash for you. Hard to pull off the game, but very underrated play. Not very useful because it's unpredictable. However, this also works with the Sofa Reckondark and that's great to spot a big area my friends. Soap for more tips. So the first one I think is you can also do a double updraft with this play. So this is an S tier. The updraft with the clone is an S tier play. This one is, I would say it's like maybe like a C tier. It's hard to apply in games, so it's not that effective. And then I would say that this last one, bouncing the flash off of the clone is just not as useful. However, this also works with the Sofa Reckondark. And that's great to spot a big area my friends. Are you tired of being in the same elo every act?  That's because you need Valorant Tracker. They have a great stats overview tab where you can check your headshot percentage, agent win rates, map win rates, and more to see where you need to improve. Another great tool is their live match info tab that gives you details on the entire lobby. But my personal favorite feature, and I talk about this a lot, is their match history tab. I check it every day I play and review exactly when I was playing that to see how I can turn it around. Stop wasting your time and download Valorant Tracker with the link in the description below. Okay, TP towards Sewers. Looks like a 1v2. He's in ult. Old yore ult.  I like that play. See, this is a real yore main. Like faking the shots and stuff like that. It's like, it's little things like that, that like a real yore main shines with good shots. Okay, he doesn't have a fake TP because this is old yoru. But this like, this like fake ult and like TP back to the other side thing is like such good tech, man. I would say it's S tier, honestly. Another fake shot and then like the TP's back. I love it bro. Really well played. Yeah, that's S tier. That's just the entire enemy team with 500 IQ yore tricks. Double footsteps. Oh yeah, yeah. Oh dude, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you can go with it and it sounds like three people are pushing. Yeah, and drop, drop the spiking. Dude, I love it, man. I do this a lot, honestly. Like, you'd think that people would be catching on by now, but they still don't know. It still works. I also don't think I've ever seen Jonas play yoru before. Dude, they completely fall for it. Yeah. Dude, this trick still works. Like people are a little bit smarter now. They don't overrun tennis usually, but like it still works. I would say that's like, I would say that's, it's not S tier. I mean, it still works, but just not super consistently. So I would say it's like an A tier. Hey guys, I am an immortal 3 yoru main and I'm going to show you how you can make a one-way flash anywhere. Okay. Usually people flash the middle edge of doorways. Yep.  Instead, you should be flashing near the top of the doorway. So the flash is covered by the roof. Allow you to peek fully with the flash. You can do this on any map. Yeah. Here are a few examples. Fracture's good with it. Flash like this to become a better yoru player. Yeah. It takes a little bit of time to get the timing down with it, but once you do it, it's so much better. I would say that's S tier. Honestly, I'm putting a lot of things in S tier. It's just like, a lot of this tech is so good. I would say maybe that's not S tier because it's like just super common. Maybe A tier? I would put that in A tier actually. High A tier though. Oh, this is what, didn't red create this? This is like the, um, the uber yoru or something like that. He like drops gun and they have no ammo. Oh my God. He's just got to find somebody. Yeah. He's got cypher.  So good, bro. So good. I would say that's like, it's fun to do, but I would say it's like, it's not like super realistic all the time. I'd say it's like a B tier clip. Like a B tier tech. Sorry. Oh, wow. 35 fed. 35. What's up guys? It's Wuju. Your favorite yoru me. Let me show you guys how to do the silent teleport correctly. The silent TP. So first, you guys want to jiggle out, send your teleport back site. You guys want to stand on the edge of the green and yellow grass. Jiggle out. Look for this branch and put your flash right on the tree. I've never seen this before. This is the most important step. Wait for it.  Oh, it's just like, okay. Yeah, this is, this is like, this is textbook yoru. And it should be a perfect silent TP. Yeah. I mean, it's not a hundred percent silent. That's a little exaggerating, but like, I mean, that's like textbook yoru flash TP combo. I mean, it's, it's like average. I would say it's like B tier. It's not like super crazy. You can still hear it. People are a lot better now at recognizing it, but mind of a yoru man. So all of my teammates died and they dropped this bike on a side. Yours truly points off my ultimate. So if I can isolate two 1v1s and win them both, I can get my ult, grab spike. Yup. Anchor the footsteps for mid. Brimstone tries to swing me bridge and loses. I know there's a really good chance that Brimstone comped it and somebody's going to be holding it, waiting for me. Now I have my ultimate, my TP set up. I can grab the spike. Classic man. Classic. And I still have the footsteps here too. Yup. Dude, this play is so insane, man. Because I'm yoru and I can TP out pretty easily. I like to push up aggressively and clutch. Dude, I miss when people like had no clue how to play against yoru. That way I can TP out and make it a true 1v1. Activate the footsteps. The rounds already won. I'm in Viper's head. She can't lose this. The entire match is watching. The spike is down. They have no idea where I am. It's over. It's jover. Yeah. Is that Red's Smurf account? Is that Red's Smurf account? Triple S above every single other clip in the entire video because uh yeah, I made it. Instead of using it in the middle, use it a little bit to the right of the teleporter. It will bounce against the door, go back. Yeah, that's a good lineup. I don't use this one a lot. If enemies are looking at you, they will get flashed and you can gale them easy peasy. When playing with yoru, throw your flashbang so the enemies has a little time as possible to react. So in this case, don't throw it against the wall on site but throw it against the window. Or even better, use the ground. You have to be careful with this one though because you might flash yourself. I don't know. That's like, I would put that like in seats here. Those flushes were kind of bad in my opinion. Those way better flashes. After that, you can activate them for anywhere on the map. Here we've got another gate crashing. Um, yep, seats here. Up of ramps. The ability makes a lot of noise. So notice how we wait until everyone's in combat before taking it in. Holy s***, that's an old split man. God, ultimate was so bad. Are they lost? Oh, so we're in iron. Oh, so we're in bronze. Oh, yo, what rank is this? Dude, I don't think that enemy team has ever seen a yoru in their life. There was zero reaction to that TP. Everyone out mid before hitting them with the mix-up and getting deep behind enemy lines with the gate crash teleport. This guy sounds like a sports announcer. The gate crash teleport. Dude, this is like... Dude, I'm telling you, man. Like, old yoru? Look, he's still unaware. Old yoru? You could do anything, bro. Like, the most blatant TP people wouldn't recognize. This clip happened just earlier today when I was testing out yoru. I noticed it was really beneficial to walk up behind the fake out footsteps. Even better with clone now. Like, you could tell that's the decoy cost. Because I think it's right. Yoru throws some footsteps into the teleporter to see if anyone shoots before they jump in. Then they spin around and drop the gate crash TP inside and the rest is self-explanatory. Yeah, and TP back behind them. Yep. Oh, my God. Yoru's ult is great for fact-finding missions. As we see here, he gets it. I guess those were like multiple texts. So far, I would put all of those texts in like the E tier. They're kind of mid now. Like, you can't really get away with it anymore. Jett dropped the AWP in favor of a rifle and can now use that info to decide if they want a peek or not. Yeah, I mean, that's like... See, long to defender spawn. Dude, I remember like... I think the very first TikTok I ever posted was this lineup. All you have to do is flash your cross, get into this corner, and it's going to get you from this corner all the way to the enemy spawn. I don't know if I am actually the one who created it. No, but like... A site tote tacker. At least I thought I did. Get out of my way. Yeah, that's a good one too. Amazing, yeah. Dude, the spawn TP lineups are so good now. Tackers. The icebox one is probably one of the better ones because nobody ever goes up the high. You can't even hear it when you TP this far back unless they're close. Yeah, I love spawn TP's. I would say like B tier. Because like... You long to Kavi. To Kavi. I would say it's like... Spawn TP's are like B tier because like... You got to be in the right situation. Right place, right time kind of thing. Clone them.  Well played. How to rush and flank at the same time with Uru.  In this case, I want to flank through mid so I cast my E to middle. Then just rush the site with your teammates. And then TP late. Keep an eye on when your E will disappear. When you got the site with your team or your E is almost over, teleport back to your gate crash. From here, you're going to go shift sneaky peeky walk to the back of the enemies. You know what's even better in my experience? It's not terrible. I would say this is like a maybe like a C or D tier strat. Because if the enemy team played correctly, they should be playing through mid and should even like let you do that. But I think what's even better is like taking site and then using your TP to like send it to their spawn and get an even bigger flank off. I think that's even better. Oh, this is my boy Rem. I love Rem. Run with its melee out. To do this, just drop your weapons before activating the clone. Yeah. He will spawn with his melee out. This is this is cool. This makes him run faster and further than a regular clone would. You can also use yours teleport to get on top of spots you normally couldn't read. The knife clone is good, but it's not super. It's a little bit practical, but like it's not like super. In fact, I would say like maybe like C tier. Simply activate a Yoru clone in the clone. The Yoru up draft. Yep. S tier without a doubt. S tier multiple spots, like top C site on Haven. And you can also do this on split B site in the top corner or even on top of the defender's spawn while on a scent. The more Yoru tips, check out my full guide. And even better tips of that is like you can set your TP up there. You don't even have to take it right away. And then like as they're attacking site, you could flash and then take the TP like kind of behind them as they're taking site. It's even better.
