@OldMutual_Ke You Comms are boring and so 90s. Where is the Emotional hook? Marketing Strategies for Travel Insurance need review. Converting print to digital posts wouldn't yield results!

@moneyacademyKE Addis Ababa is already ahead with its comprehensive urban planning. Dedicated pedestrian walkways, cycling paths, and better lighting really enhance the city experience—not just aesthetics.

@georgenjoroge_ Due to the transition from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar. The Julian calendar was out of sync with the seasons, so Pope Gregory XIII introduced the Gregorian calendar, dropping ten days. Thus, after October 4, 1582, the next day was October 15, 1582.

[VIDEO] The Humane AI pin just launched for $699.

Is this pin going to be the new Apple iPhone?

Idk, but here are 3 big takeaways from the launch:

1. OpenAI/Microsoft will eventually become infra for all tech

Hard to beat them at this rate, they will become AWS for AI

2. AI is gonna make apps (as we know them) a lot less important

Screenless interfaces powered by AI will be connected to apps on the back end and bundled into a subscription service

My Humane subscription will come with Tidal and I will rarely/never need to interface with tidal again

Many consumer products will go from B2C -> B2B

3. Product design is going to look a lot different in 5-10 years

Maybe unrecognizable.

The bottom line is how we are interacting with these devices are changing.

This week we had the GPT store. Agents are the new apps.

Now we have AI pins.

The palm of your hand is your new screen.

Wild times.

Guinness sells good times, not beer.

@kaimuri_ If you come down with a cold or the flu, all you have to do is slice a red or white onion into rounds, place them on the bottoms of your feet, and put on a pair of socks. Leave the socks on overnight as you sleep. In the morning, you’ll wake up cured of your illness.

The older you get, the more you see how real the Bible and the supernatural are. It's why the church is filled with older people who have lived their lives and have seen how difficult life is without God. They do everything possible to steer younger people in the...

What is the secret of success?
Right decisions.

How do you make right decisions?
Experience.

Wrong decisions.

Creativity is like washing a pig. It’s messy. It has no rules. No clear beginning, middle or end. It’s kind of a pain in the ass, and when you’re done, you’re not sure if the pig is really clean or even why you were washing a pig in the first place.
