Day 1 until I get into Y Combinator. 🇪🇹
2 rejections, an open-source dream, and a spatula mic.
Tomorrow: leaking the exact 1-minute video that got me rejected. 💀
Follow along.
@samishken No ... equb manager doesnt make financal transfers or does not make any kind of transactions on behalf of the user it is simply and life easier tool
Until it happnes to you,
- you think you are too careful to make that mistake,
- too mature to lose control,
- too private to get exposed,
- too relgious to drift,
- too responsible to collapse.
Life has a way of dismantling every identity built on certainity!
🇪🇹 The Omarchy Ethiopia Theme Competition is open!
Create a theme inspired by Ethiopia and tech.
Start with a wallpaper connected to Ethiopia architecture, landscapes, colors, Addis Ababa, or anything that inspires you.

A new Equb Manager feature is coming soon.
Connect your Equb bank accounts, and Equb Manager will automatically parse incoming payments from your contributors and match them to the right members.
No more checking bank transfers one by one.
No more guessing who has paid.
just set up a telegram channel for my daily build log.
gonna be sharing raw, unfiltered updates on building AI infra and OSS projects. behind-the-scenes architecture, dev logs, and a lot of debugging. ☕️

I know lots of you vibe-code out of the necessity of speed. I know lots of you also love programming. So here are some really fun things you can manually do and have an absolute thrill at.
• Make a game using Godot — this's extremely mechanical and forces you to actually manually do things and even AI won't help you there so you can just be present and enjoy it. Been prototyping a space cowboy adventure game and I'm having so much fun.
• Make a Telegram bot — it's so easy to get started and the RoF (return of fun) is much more. Been building and experimenting past few days using grammyJS to build a personal assistant and it's so enjoyable.
• Build something with an Arduino — this is just the best. You don't even want to use AI for the code cause it's just so much fun. It also has a lot of limitations which make you think about optimizations and performance a lot.
• Try learning a new Programming Language — I usually experiment with a lot of languages, old and new and seeing how they operate and how it really forces your brain to stretch to understand it is very fun and it actually makes you a better programmer across the board.
• Train or fine-tune an LLM — we've got to a point where doing this, even on your local machine is so easy. The resources are overwhelming and the tools (Prime Intellect, Tinker and Unsloth) are very nice to use. And it really puts into perspective how all these modern LLMs operate.
• Make a game in a Fantasy Console — programs like PICO-8 or TIC-80 are really fun, have real constraints and challenge you a lot to work within bounds. It makes you think and system design and optimize for efficiency as much as possible.
• Experiment with Music — this could be with physical instruments or even digital synthesizers. There are even tools like Strudel that let you make music through code. Music really opens up your eyes to a whole new universe. It's really fun.
• Make Pixel Art — there are a lot of good softwares specialized for pixel art like Aseprite so use them to draw some unique quirky art. Really shows you how valuable good art is.
• Run simulations in Python — there are so many things you can simulate using python. From gravity to ant colonies, from solar systems to population data. It's extremely fun visualizing interactions and seeing the effects.
These are just a few, there's a lot you can do in the digital world. Don't lock yourself up in a single window and be bored. There are endless things you will love doing and trying out in the digital world. Enjoy!
how i end up to lava event is not because i was approved but with the help of @Eyuel88 he basically gave up his check-in to me
i rely want to thank @Eyuel88 fr 🙏
