I saw an interview where the cast of polygamist were interviewed by CNN and international Africans were shocked that they speak fluent English and saying the show should have been done in English. Who do they think they are?!

Stellenbosch University engineers and students have built the electronics for Africa's first moon mission, flying with China in 2029. A set of South African-designed spheres will be the world’s first radio telescope array on the lunar surface.

The mission’s technology demonstrator consists of three composite spheres containing low-frequency radio antennas and electronics, named the Bounced African Low Lunar Spheres, or Balls (stylised as B.A.L.L.S.). Their job is to prove that radio astronomy below 20MHz is possible from the lunar surface.

The project is led by the Foundation for Space Development Africa in collaboration with the South African Radio Astronomy Observatory (Sarao), the South African National Space Agency, Stellenbosch University, Rhodes University and the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

She advises the Minister by day and sues the state by night. Conflict of interest? Or just a very lucrative hustle?

How is this allowed? Chidimma case is already decided behind doors… am all this theatrics of going to court is just standard procedure.

I invite all South Africans to write complaints to @CouncilPractice and @PublicProtector regarding this 👇🏽Flood their emails with complaints.

And if her attorney is also the state advisor? Then she should be reported to the LPC asap.

If someone has proof that she is the attorney on record then please share it.

Minister Schreiber appointed De Saude to his advisory board. Meanwhile, her firm has taken the DHA to court multiple times and won. She knows exactly how broken the system is because she's the one exploiting it.

Someone just made a 60-second Pixar-style animated short for $1.33.

Then open sourced the entire system that produced it.

It's called OpenMontage. The first open-source agentic video production system.

You don't operate it. Your AI coding assistant does. Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Codex. Pick one. Tell it what you want in plain English. The agent handles research, scripting, asset generation, editing, and final composition.

The $1.33 banana short used:

→ 6 Kling v3 motion clips
→ Google Chirp3-HD narration
→ Royalty-free piano music
→ TikTok-style word-level captions
→ Remotion final composition

Same system. Different prompt. $0.15 for a full Ghibli-style anime. $0.69 for a product ad.

What's actually inside the repo:

→ 12 production pipelines covering explainers, animations, cinematic trailers, podcast repurposing, documentary montages, screen demos, and talking heads
→ 52 tools spanning video gen, image gen, TTS, music, mixing, subtitles, enhancement
→ 14 video providers, 10 image providers, 4 TTS providers. Swap freely. No lock-in.
→ Live web research before every script. 15-25+ searches across YouTube, Reddit, news, academic
→ Pre-compose validation blocks slideshow-looking renders before they waste GPU time
→ Post-render self-review with ffprobe, frame analysis, and audio check catches broken outputs
→ Budget caps and per-action approval thresholds. No surprise bills.

Paste any YouTube Short or Reel and the agent analyzes the pacing, hook, and structure, then proposes 2-3 differentiated versions for your own topic.

The free path needs zero API keys. Piper TTS for narration. https://t.co/Uf6CVRiVVf, NASA, and Wikimedia for footage. Remotion for composition. FFmpeg for everything else.

16.4k stars. #1 trending on GitHub.

Growing up in South Africa, coding always felt like it belonged to someone else's language.

So I built my own.

When the Khoe wouldn’t work for the Dutch in the Cape, they were branded as “lazy” & slaves were brought from Asia & elsewhere in Africa. When the Zulu wouldn’t work for the British in Natal, indentured labourers were brought in from India. This is all important to know today.

Dear Zimbabwe, it’s time for a brutal conversation about xenophobia in South Africa

By Maynard Manyowa 10 Apr 2022

Maynard Manyowa is a Zimbabwean journalist and documentary filmmaker based in Manchester, England. He is married to Boipelo Manyowa, a South African journalist who has recently written against xenophobia.

Maybe it is time that we, as Zimbabweans, remind ourselves that South Africa is treating us better than we ever treat(ed) immigrants.

Nobody wants to, nor can they, freely state that Zimbabwean immigrants in South Africa do not help their own cause. Saying this would likely be interpreted as support for violence and whip up a wave of cancellations.

When Zimbabwe first achieved independence in 1980, it really was heaven on Earth. Its currency was strong and the country was self-sufficient. Malawians, Zambians and South Africans flocked to Zimbabwe to work as roadside vendors and in mines, to take advantage of the education system, as well as flee from the racist apartheid government.

But Zimbabwe and its government at the time were hostile. Malawians and Zambians were called MaBwidi, a derogatory term that describes foreigners as halfwits. The government conducted raid after raid in townships, often asking people to repeat local street lingo – fully aware that Malawian folk would do so with a hilarious accent.

Those who failed were bundled into trucks and deported. Those who remained were made half citizens by the government.

At that time, naturalised Zimbabweans from Malawi and Zambia were not allowed to vote, and their identity documents were engraved with a huge capital “A”, designating them as “Aliens”. This practice remained up until Robert Mugabe was removed from power.

But, at the same time, Mozambique was engaged in a brutal civil war and a number of Mozambicans, many of whom speak Zimbabwe’s main language, Shona, crossed into the country seeking refuge. The government rounded them up and put them in refugee camps, while several others were sent back, by force, to Mozambique, where they were executed by rebel forces.

To this day, in and around the township, derogatory jokes about Malawians, Zambians and Mozambicans are exchanged at barbecues.

How we, as Zimbabweans, treated other Africans at the time was wrong, and it must not escape history or dialogue.

South Africa treats refugees better than any other African country
Over the years, as conflict has ravaged Africa, many people have fled their homes in Congo, Somalia, Ethiopia, the Central African Republic, Burundi and other countries. Those who found their way to Zimbabwe were put in refugee camps, where they remain to this day. Countries like Malawi, Uganda and Zambia also have refugee camps for asylum seekers.

Now, I mention this because, when millions of Zimbabweans rightly fled the violence in 2008, the South African government responded by giving them special permits and allowed those who didn’t apply to integrate with communities.

In Malawi, as we speak, the government is calling on all refugees who left camps and integrated with communities to return to the camps or face action. Zimbabwe keeps refugees in camps, while Kenya wants to close its camps and send refugees back to conflict zones.

South Africa is not driving foreigners into camps, but nobody wants to talk about this. And ignoring such gestures of goodwill upsets and offends a country that has been very hospitable to refugees, economic or otherwise.

One would struggle to find a country today that allows millions of people to simply show up and integrate into communities. To that end, South Africa is a haven for refugees from all walks of life.

At the same time, we cannot escape the reality that illegal immigrants commit crime in South Africa. People avoid talking about it, but the stats are there. In 2017, there were 11,842 foreigners in South African prisons, 918 for murder and 454 for rape.

Land at OR Tambo. Unaware the last train out leaves 20:30. Arrive at the station 20:29:50. Let’s just say security were cheering, people on the escalator up were laughing, passengers wide-eyed as I sprinted across the platform with my big luggage dragging along. I made it! This must be what it feels like to win the Comrades. Thank you @TheGautrain for waiting for me a full 3 seconds. 😅🙏❤️

Japanese candlesticks are the HEARTBEAT of the market.

Once you can read them, you know whether to buy, sell, or sit out before price moves.

It's one of the skills that took me from blowing 7 accounts to making my first $1M.
