Hands men, what a structure.

To build - to fashion, to hold a big stick.

@therealbelano Borrowing rates are indirectly indicative. Except you match a generous lender, you’d barely get a rate below 32/33% from our traditional banks. Just for a year.

That’s just one of a couple of things.

Of course rents will rise.

@adedayo_viktor Time = history = change. The artifact you are referring to might be 650 years old. Identities, belief systems, social structures, everything has changed and scarifications themselves have a history as a practice.

Now, that explains a lot.

The litmus test for sound mind and character is whether they can finish what they start. Some people just suck at finishing, hence, the short-circuiting.

Once my mom and stepdad got scammed by a guy who knocked on the door and offered to fix the dents in their cars outside. He pretended to work on the cars, took the money, and then fled. My stepdad said the weird part was that the man did most of the correct steps to fix the dents, and obviously knew how it worked, but just decided not to finish it.

That's when I first saw a glimpse into the spirit of a scammer. It's not laziness or incompetence that drives them. Oftentimes the scammer works harder at scamming than they would at an honest job. What drives them is the incessant need to be better than everyone else to "get one over on" others. It's a truly perverse and awful way to live.

The actual politicking, over being a hose.

“I want to appreciate Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for inviting us. It takes a lot of selflessness to invite other states to take advantage of a platform to market themselves, and I assure you I will not demarket you as I market myself. Lagos is a mega city. If you ask me, I would say it is overpopulated, and that is why it is good for other states to begin to grow. We cannot all be mega cities like Lagos, but there are things we can take from Lagos.”

In 2010-ish, Target used this same clustering predictive mechanism on aisle purchases.. to predict a teenager’s pregnancy even before her immediate family members.

[$JRD! @jalaal_tweets]

I learnt about this in my Business analytics degree and I’m going to break it down for you.

Temu isn’t shipping your order from a factory in Shenzhen the moment you tap “buy.” They moved away from that model a while back. What they run now is a demand forecasting operation: they collect order data by region, figure out which products people in, say, Yaba or Lekki keep buying, then ship bulk quantities of those products to fulfilment warehouses already inside the UK or US. Your order never left the country. It was already sitting in a warehouse 40 miles from you before you even opened the app.

This is standard supply chain logic. Amazon has been doing it for years. What makes Temu interesting is how aggressively they’re applying it at scale. They’re working backwards from purchase history, search behaviour, and even abandoned carts to predict what needs to be stocked where, weeks before the demand actually lands. By the time you order a #5000 phone stand at 11pm on a Saturday, there’s a reasonable chance 200 of those phone stands are already in a depot near you because the data said they would move in your postcode cluster this weekend.

It’s called inventory pre-positioning, and the predictive layer underneath it is machine learning working on millions of rows of transaction data daily.

The “made in China” framing still applies to where the product was manufactured. That part’s accurate. But manufacturing and fulfilment are two completely separate steps, and people keep conflating them.

What Temu figured out is that fast delivery is a conversion driver, so they invested in the forecasting infrastructure to make it possible without eating the cost of next-day air freight on every order. The warehouse does the work. The algorithm fills the warehouse.

I’m @jalaal_tweets, you’ll learn more about Data and Ai fluency if you follow me.

I just found this website.

Now I'm annoyed because my standards just went up again.

@Kay_Musungay You can actually run 10 km without training. Especially if you’re a regular walker. You will just be in pain after.

Missing NY tech week this week but am in NYC pretty frequently this summer, where are all the normie AI events where people are actually building stuff, complaining about API 5xxs, token costs, checking out local models, etc?

[Akan Daniel @akandee_]

Come and see.

Una clienta de nuestras consultas ECHO nos dijo algo que se nos quedó grabado: “Si la gente supiese lo fácil que es esto, todo el mundo estaría creando sus propias empresas.” Y honestamente…creemos que tiene razón.

Así que decidimos demostrarlo. En este vídeo tomamos uno de los recursos LATAM que acabamos de lanzar: https://t.co/WLbGGDVc3f y seguimos exactamente el mismo proceso que cualquier persona podría hacer desde su casa.

Sin programar.
Sin contratar una agencia.
Sin un equipo de diseño.
Sin experiencia previa.

Partimos de una idea sencilla: Una tienda de artesanías en Cusco, Perú. Y en menos de 15 minutos terminamos con:

✓ Página web
✓ APP para clientes y proveedores
✓ Material de marketing
✓ Marca visual
✓ Diseños
✓ Estrategia de contenido
✓ Enciclopedia de la empresa para seguir construyendo

Todo utilizando herramientas que cualquier persona puede acceder hoy: un ChatGPT gratuito Y Claude Design que viene incluido con cualquier cuenta de Claude. Basta con pulsar el icono🎨en el panel izquierdo y empezar a construir.

El vídeo fue acelerado para que pudiera verse aquí en formato X, pero el proceso completo tomó menos tiempo que tarda mucha gente en ver una serie o desplazarse por redes sociales (15mins total).

La tecnología está cambiando rápido. La pregunta ya no es si tienes acceso. La pregunta es qué vas a construir con ella.🌊 https://t.co/TsY0EtoXvE
