Most bugs in large systems don’t come from syntax errors and we all know that. Many come from design decisions, especially TIGHT COUPLING pretending to be “efficiency.”😂

A client I just deployed a £1000 basic e-commerce app for, attempted vibe coding it himself.
Lovable was able to get everything setup until payment, email notifications, reconciliation and other unique functionality stage. He didn’t even know how to structure the prompts.
He didn’t know how to move forward then I “stepped in” not with Wordpress.
Converted what he did to a NextJS app, using cron job, I automated most of the processes, and implemented all the initially mentioned functionality.
AI will not take all our jobs eventually.
Whatever you do, my recommendation is that If the user wants to add a password so they can log in directly in future, you offer them a "set a Password" flow, not a reset since there's no initial password to reset anyway. The end result is that their account now supports both login methods
Boss: “We’ll also give you a 95% raise—just don’t leave!”
Employee: “Sorry, it’s too late now.”
Lesson for Leaders:
Employees don’t leave only because of money—they leave when they feel undervalued or unappreciated.
Retaining good employees isn’t just about increasing their pay; it requires recognition, growth opportunities, and proactive leadership.
Take care of your best employees— before they decide to leave you.
NIBSS is treated as a national infrastructure.
It’s co-owned by CBN + banks.
It runs redundancy and failover systems.
But here’s the truth:
When an entire country routes payments through one backbone…
Any issue has a nationwide impact.
The blast radius is total.
On Saturday, March 28 2026, we hosted 200+ young minds in tech at our inaugural conference and it was absolutely, mind blowing!
Such a powerful community we’re building and I’m super excited where this train is headed🔥
God please make today the beginning of great things to come for Arsenal football club, hand us this trophy to kick start our era of dominance. Amen 🙏🏽❤️
🚨🎙️| Thierry Henry: 🗣️
“You don’t have to like the way Arsenal F.C. play, but you will respect it, yes, we weren’t great against Bayer 04 Leverkusen, but even on an off night we still found a way to get a draw. That’s what top teams do. And at the Emirates, I believe we will finish the job.
I still believe Arsenal will win the Premier League. As for the Champions League, we will see how far this team can go, but let me say it again — you don’t have to like us.
When José Mourinho and Diego Simeone set up their teams the way they want, people call it tactical brilliance. But when Arsenal do things our way, suddenly it becomes a problem.
We are not here to please pundits. We are not here to satisfy rival fans.
We are here to win.”
Honestly, if you want to secure a backend role in a fintech company that deals heavily with transactions, these are the things you must understand.
If the company actually knows what they’re doing, their questions will revolve around things like:
Idempotency – preventing duplicate transactions
Concurrency control – handling multiple requests safely
Database transactions (ACID)
Distributed systems basics
A lot of people underestimate this side of backend.
But that’s just the surface…
Bookmark and retweet so people can learn from this too
We’re not wasting 4GB. Most files contain repeated patterns, and compression algorithms store these patterns more efficiently.
For example, instead of writing “AAAAAAAAAAAA”, ZIP stores “12A”. This reduces the number of bits used for the same data.
Original files are stored raw for fast access, while compression sacrifices CPU power for smaller storage. Compression doesn’t remove data; it removes repetition.
