We* built the first ever Turing-complete Swahili programming language — Nuru.
And we just secured a $40,000 contract to bring it to 5,000 learners in Swahili-speaking classrooms.

And I know what you’re thinking: Why build a Swahili programming language?Aren’t there already a dozen “better” languages than Nuru could ever be?

Yes. “You’re absolutely right!” Now buckle up and hear me out!

As AI systems get stronger, the “how” is getting “cheaper” every year. Implementation details are being trivialized. The real advantage shifts to the “what”: knowing what to build, why it matters, and having systems understanding at a high level.

The winners won’t be the people who can write the most syntax from memory, they’ll be the people with strong fundamentals and the confidence to build.

That’s why we believe the programming language of the future is going to be the one you already speak.... For the millions of us from the so-called “3rd world countries”, that language is Swahili!

When we started https://t.co/t0VjIj5AG7, one thing became obvious fast: integrating into public schools in Tanzania would be hard. Most technical learning is delivered in English, but for many young Tanzanians—especially outside big cities—English is a third language.

We don’t really do excuses. And we couldn’t sit around waiting for policy to catch up to the urgency.

So we built the Nuru Playground, on top of the Nuru language that @AviTheDev had been working on, so we could finally deliver our technical programs in Swahili-speaking classrooms without the translation tax.

We have already reached hundreds of students with a couple schools on our waitlist.

Kujieni car hire nipate off, I really wanna ride.

This day I cycled with my kamba friends and whenever asked how many kms ahead they were like " no vàà". 110kms later I found myself here and they insisted that we should cross the forest, lemme tell you and I was my first and last day to do what men "can do".

In the meantime, we have 3 cars for hire today, visit: https://t.co/MW9O8thdES

Okay, documentary twitter, today I gift you 20 documentaries and their links. Most are very deep and long. If you like them , you can watch them.

@WinterOkoth We so proud of you! Keep the fire burning.

[Abojani Investment 🇰🇪🇺🇬🇹🇿 @TheAbojani]

Personal finance is more than just budgeting or saving money, it is the thoughtful management of your financial resources to support your life goals, provide security, and create opportunities.

It involves various components that work together: income management, spending habits, saving, investing, debt strategy, protection against risks, and wealth planning.

Mastering these elements requires knowledge, discipline, and adaptability to changing circumstances.

[Dr. Isaac Kalua Green @IsaacKalua]

Kenya is at a moral crossroads.
The youth have risen. The old guard must listen. Our nation can’t heal if we ignore the cries of a generation betrayed by corruption, exclusion & broken promises.
It’s time to reflect, reset & rebuild.

Do not compare your chapter 1 in life with another person's chapter 12.

We all blossom at different phases.

You don't know what the ones you are comparing yourself with are doing to be at their Chapter 12.

I am certain you have heard the famous phrase by Theodore Roosevelt that says comparison is the thief of joy.

When we begin comparing ourselves to others, we start thinking we are inadequate, ineffectual and unhappy. We start to focus on what we lack instead of what we have.

This leads to a sense of dissatisfaction, anger and resentment towards ourselves.

Be proud of your chapter 1.

Life is very short and anxious for those who forget the past, neglect the present, and fear the future. ~ Seneca.

When creating a comprehensive soil testing, leaf testing, and fertilizer program for #wheat, it's essential to consider the crucial growth stages of the crop. This allows growers to optimize #cropnutrition, achieve higher yields & enhance overall productivity. Grow more with less

When you wake up every morning, during BENEDICTION,

— say the following 5 sentences:

• Today, I choose to be positive.

•  I am grateful for all that I have.

• I am capable of achieving great things.

• I embrace challenges as opportunities for growth.

• I take action towards my goals every day.

Say these words each morning, repeatedly, every day for the rest of the year, and see how your life will transform.

There is power in the words you speak about yourself.

Write these words on paper and pin the paper on your bedroom wall so that as you go to bed, you see them, and when you wake up, you still see them.

@mkarembu says that everyone of us is a scientist. How, then, do we define science? Why is there as much disinformation and misinformation in science? How can that be addressed?
