Hi, I’m Paul – Workflow Engineer.
I specialize in designing automation systems using: Zapier | Make| Notion API | Airtable | Google Apps.
Use cases: lead routing, webhook integrations, Slack bots, dynamic dashboards etc.
Built 12+ custom workflows from scratch, and counting.
Is your laptop suddenly as slow as a snail and the fan is making a lot of noise every time you open Chrome?
Many people suggest switching to Edge or Brave. You don’t need to. You just need to change a few hidden settings.
I’ll show you how to stop Chrome from being a RAM vampire.
Here’s how:

@Aje_Dynamicz And I understand that it might seem that way. I would've argued too if I hadn't confirmed from someone who placed an order and got their item. Anyway make him update prices for website for all devices.
@Aje_Dynamicz Not all items on the site are with old prices. Maybe that specific device you chatted him up for had updated prices there. Someone recently got a device from him and it definitely wasn't that expensive as seen on the site. Maybe he needs to look into automating price difference.
Nigeria has been generating electricity since 1896. That’s 130 years.
Today, in March 2026, the national grid just dropped to 3,940 megawatts. For 220 million people.
South Africa generates over 48,000MW for 60 million people. Egypt has about 59,000MW installed for 110 million.
Nigeria? About 13,000MW installed. But we can only push around 4,000 to 5,000MW through the grid on a good day. The rest just sits there. Wasted.
The grid collapsed 12 times in 2024 alone. 128 transmission towers were destroyed by vandals in the same year. Government spent N8.8 billion just repairing them.
Between 2010 and 2022, NERC recorded at least 222 partial and total grid collapses. That’s roughly one every three weeks for 12 years straight.
Every time the grid collapses, restarting just three power plants (Azura, Delta, and Shiroro) costs Nigeria about $25 million. That’s N42.5 billion. Per collapse. For just three plants.
The power sector owes generation companies N6.8 trillion as of February 2026. Growing by N200 billion every single month. By end of March, it’ll hit N7 trillion.
Of that N6.8 trillion, about N3.3 trillion is owed to gas suppliers. So what did the gas suppliers do? They cut supply. Right now, thermal plants need about 1,630 million standard cubic feet of gas per day. They’re getting 692 million. Less than 43%.
That’s why your light is off right now.
The government approved N4 trillion in bonds to fix it. So far they’ve issued N590 billion. The rest? We’re waiting.
Meanwhile, Nigerians spend about $14 billion every year buying and fueling generators. 22 million generators across the country. Their combined capacity? About 42,000 megawatts. That’s 8 times what the national grid delivers.
We literally have more generator capacity than grid capacity. Think about that.
In 2023, 767 manufacturing companies shut down. 335 more became distressed. 18,000 jobs gone. In the first half of 2025 alone, manufacturers spent N676.6 billion on backup power and still couldn’t meet their needs. Another 18,935 jobs lost.
The World Bank estimates power outages cost Nigeria $29 billion annually. That’s about 10% of GDP. Every year.
This isn’t a power problem. It’s a governance problem.
Egypt added 14,000 megawatts of gas capacity in six years using the same Siemens equipment we’ve been talking about for decades. Ghana fixed its power crisis between 2012 and 2016 and now exports surplus electricity. South Africa just went 300 consecutive days without load shedding after committing to a real recovery plan.
We’ve been “fixing” power since 1999. Every president has had an emergency power plan. We’ve taken over $4 billion in World Bank loans for the power sector. The grid can barely hold 5,000MW. Any more and it literally collapses.
Nigeria cannot be a serious economy running on generators. No country industrialized on backup power.
Happy Sunday Everyone 🤝
If you want success on remote jobs, especially if you’re following me, then you must be calculative.
Here is a brief summary of what we have done so far last week;
I talked about two major things to start remote work;
✅ Skills
✅ CV
I also went ahead to drop a CV template which I advised everyone to use after making changes to it.
Lastly, I dropped key updates that works especially in NIGERIA, without using PROXY OR VPN.
➡️First sets are AI companies or platforms hiring frequently;
✅Micro1
✅Turing
✅Mindrift
✅Aurora studios
✅Atlas capture
Next batch coming up this week
➡️Second sets, are testing sites that will teach you how to report software bugs and issues
✅Testio
✅Testerworks
✅Testbirds
✅Testlio
➡️Third sets, are audio recording sites that pay quite well to record you voice in English, Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba
✅Silencio
✅Pila8
✅DipAudio
More to come
Don’t just move from one update to another, stick to one and make sure you get results. This helps you achieve more
I’m focused on delivering quality, I just need you to pay close attention, ask relevant questions and show up everyday.

No talk say I no share updates later oh

“There is no cloud, just someone else’s computer.”
This isn’t a joke; it’s a reminder.
When you upload a file to “the cloud,” it doesn’t magically float into the sky. Instead, it lands on a physical server within a data center, equipped with real CPUs, disks, RAM, and cables. This server is owned and controlled by someone else.
Your data is essentially stored on their machines, running on their operating system, and governed by their policies.
The “cloud” is essentially a collection of massive server racks, virtualization (VMs and containers), networking abstraction, and billing dashboards that create the illusion of magic. However, beneath the user interface and APIs, it’s still computers housed in a building.
This is why cloud providers can shut down accounts, outages can disrupt half the internet, law enforcement can subpoena providers, and misconfigurations can leak millions of records.
In the cloud, you don’t lose responsibility; you simply share it.
When engineers use this phrase, they’re essentially saying:
“Don’t forget who controls the hardware.”
The cloud offers convenience, scalability, and power. However, it’s not yours.
