Very excited that I’ll be spending the summer at EPFL doing research in Switzerland! Looking forward to all the amazing work I’ll do🤭

[Favour Markson @Dev_Markson]

@dondekojo Yeah this is match point. Like 2 points for win 1 for draw.

[Favour Markson @Dev_Markson]

This is not narrow win sha😂. Team UI showed dominance as expected! Ggs though

[Ayobami @dondekojo]

Well, we held our own and performed better than expectation, they had a narrow one round win. Personal highlight- I beat their team captain in both Rapid and Blitz.

I got married this past weekend so I did what any rational @AnthropicAI employee would do and had Claude Code analyze 12 years of iMessages with my wife, then Claude Design used that data to whip up a website for our guests in just minutes.

[Tokunbo Wahab @tokunbo_wahab]

I met with Adetokunbo Ogunnoiki @tokunboxyz , a young graduate of mathematics from the University of Ibadan, and his startup partner Ademola Gbadero, after his viral post on X caught my attention. They proposed a tech platform that uses geo mapping to help Lagosians locate clean and available public toilets in real time, with features like cleanliness ratings, walking directions, and estimated arrival times. They have already deployed a similar solution on their university campus with success.

I invited them in, listened to their presentation alongside the Special Adviser to the Governor on e-GIS, Dr. Olajide Babatunde, and the Director of Sanitation Services, Dr. Hassan Sanuth. Fascinated by the idea and impressed by their depth of work, I approved the proposal on the spot and requested a comprehensive budget for the next meeting in a few days.

This project will further bolster our drive for a cleaner Lagos under Governor @jidesanwoolu led administration. We welcome objective criticism that offers solutions, not outright condemnation, insults and curses. Governance is about collective solutions and empowering the next generation.
