It’s the Wild Wild West. Age-long security & reliability guarantees are slowly fading away.

1/ We are sharing additional details regarding our investigation into unauthorized access to GitHub's internal repositories.

Yesterday we detected and contained a compromise of an employee device involving a poisoned VS Code extension. We removed the malicious extension version, isolated the endpoint, and began incident response immediately.

You’ll work your ass off, do all the right things, delay gratifications & a group of people will sit down in offices in Abuja & erase years of your effort through silly policies.
And NO!, offshore investments & japa are not accessible & sustainable solution either. We can’t keep adapting forever.

You can’t even work with a budget past one or two months anymore.

And that’s what some people try to reduce to football banter level on this app.

The only Nigerian politician I can listen to & read his statements & it sounds like an actual human being is talking to you.

Whatever the eventual outcome of this struggle, history will remember you for good. You’ve made immeasurable impact on this generation already.

Thank you for service sir.

[Peter Obi @PeterObi]

Fellow Nigerians, good morning.

I woke up this morning after my church service with a deeply reflective heart, and despite every constraint, I felt compelled to share these thoughts with you.

Many people do not truly understand the silent pains some of us carry daily—the private struggles, emotional burdens, and quiet battles we face while trying to survive and serve sincerely in difficult circumstances.

We now live in an environment that has become increasingly toxic, where the very system that should protect and create opportunities for decent living often works against the people—a society where intimidation, insecurity, endless scrutiny, and discouragement have become normal.

More painful is when some of those you associate with, believing you would find understanding and solidarity among them, become part of the pressure you face. Some who publicly identify with you privately distance themselves or join in unfair criticism.

We live in a society where humility is mistaken for weakness, respect is seen as a lack of courage, and compassion is treated as foolishness—a system where treating people equally is questioned simply because you refuse to worship status, tribe, class, or power.

Personally, I have never looked down on anyone except to uplift them. I have never used privilege, position, or resources to oppress others, intimidate the weak, or make people feel small. To me, leadership has always been about service, sacrifice, and helping others rise.

Let me state clearly: my decision to leave the ADC is not because our highly respected Chairman, Senator David Mark, treated me badly, nor because my leader and elder brother, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or any other respected leaders did anything personally wrong to me. I will continue to respect them.

However, the same Nigerian state and its agents that created unnecessary crises and hostility within the Labour Party that forced me to leave now appear to be finding their way into the ADC, with endless court cases, internal battles, suspicion, and division, instead of focusing on deeper national problems and playing politics built more on control and exclusion than on service and nation-building.

Even within spaces where one labours sincerely, one is sometimes treated like an outsider in one’s own home. You and your team become easy targets for every failure, frustration, or misunderstanding, as though honest contribution has become a favour being tolerated rather than appreciated.

And when you choose to leave so that those you are leaving can have peace, and you step out into the cold, you are still maligned and your character is questioned. Despite all your efforts to continue working for a better Nigeria and engaging people with sincerity and goodwill, those who do not wish you well continue to attack your character and question your intentions.

There are moments I ask God in prayer: Why is doing the right thing often misconstrued as wrongdoing in our country? Why is integrity not valued? Why is the prudent management of resources, especially when invested in critical areas like education and healthcare, wrongly labelled as stinginess? Why are humility and obedience to the rule of law often taken to be weakness rather than discipline?

Let me assure all that I am not desperate to be President, Vice President, or Senate President. I am desperate to see a society that can console a mother whose child has been kidnapped or killed while going to school or work. I am desperate to see a Nigeria where people will not live in IDP camps but in their homes. I am desperate for a country where Nigerian citizens do not go to bed hungry, not knowing where their next meal will come from.

Yet, despite everything, I remain resolute. I firmly believe that Nigeria can still become a country with competent leadership based on justice, compassion, and equal opportunity for all.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

It just dawned on me this morning that we’re actually sort of living in the past.

I was frying eggs for breakfast, the oil made a sizzling noise & I flinched. Then it dawned on me that I was reacting to an event that was already in the past.

Given light & sound have finite speeds, it implies there is a tiny lag between events & the signals getting to us. Secondly our brain & sensory system being a form of networked computing system (albeit biological) implies an inherent non-zero latency.
So there’s a gap (though too small in practical sense) between close events & our perception of them.

So our present moment: the bird singing, the car honking, even your own whistling happened a little while ago.

So we’re really only perceiving (living) in the past.

Also I realized that our perception of reality is actually a slightly distorted, out-of-phase version of what really happened. Like a narration rather than an experience. Given that light & sound have different speeds, their signals get to us at different times. Assuming we can sample reality at the frequency of light, you’d be at the 1 millionth light frame before getting the first sound frame for sound & light events that originated at exactly the same point in space & time. (Considering their velocities)
So the perceived signal is slightly out of phase relative to the source signal.

It’s one thing knowing something versus realizing the actual implications of it. Eg if you consider thunderstorms have always been an example to illustrate the relatively slower speed of sound, but it still feels surreal realizing the wider meaning & implications of it esp in everyday situations.

Makes me wonder what realities are we oblivious of or wrong assumptions we make because of the limit of our cognitive & sensory abilities.

All this braggadocio & she can only pay 100k? She better get down her high horse.

The terrible economy is to be blamed really, cos as bad as this sounds, people will still apply. That’s what this sort of gross exploitative behavior banks on.

Sophia Ahuoyiza is hiring an Executive Assistant.

Not a calendar-blocker or an email-responder. A context manager.

She operates across multiple spaces — product, tech, business — simultaneously. She needs someone who can hold the full picture of her work life, keep her ahead of everything, and show up with the same standard she would.

Here is her TLDR:

🕖 Core hours: 7 AM – 3 PM | Output-driven, not hour-driven
💰 ₦100,000/month for the first 6 months
📍 Fully remote
⏰ My brief lands with me by 7 AM, every day and you build it

What I am looking for:
— You are proactive. Deeply, consistently, without being reminded
— You are reliable. Zero excuses
— You read everything. Meeting notes, documents, long threads — this is not a role where you outsource your reading to AI
— You pay attention to details
— You communicate at a high level and can engage on my behalf when needed
— You are tech-savvy and you build systems naturally

What this is not:
— A task-execution role
— A role for someone with competing commitments or availability gaps right now
— A full-time employment hire in the first 6 months (no leave, pension, or HMO initially — this is reviewed after 6 months)

I have zero tolerance for laxity. I will terminate quickly if I notice it. The expectations are set clearly in advance — that clarity is intentional.

I am also genuinely interested in people who are building towards something. If a career in tech, product, or business is where you are headed, this role will accelerate that.

The search is open for 6 months. I will shortlist within a week. Two-week paid probation.

Read the full JD before applying — application steps are in there:

Only the exceptional need apply.

Low key I’m jealous of people who found their own person early & just locked in.

Building a business is an extreme sports. One moment, all your dots are aligned & you’re killing it, next minute you’re putting out fires & questioning your life choices.

[Kings @authosoro]

My contribution to this cyclic women & rich men conversation on Twitter is that a full grown adult w/o impairment should not hinge their desire for a good life on someone else’s pocket.

Decades of advancement in rights & equity wasn’t made for you to become a charity case.

[Kings @authosoro]

Why not work to afford the life they desire? Why are we encouraging a generation of women whose main strategy for escaping poverty hinges on dating/marrying ‘rich men’.

[Kings @authosoro]

We live in a world where men no longer have any real economic advantage over women. Both genders can work & make money.
So I don’t understand why you’re defending women seeing romantic relationships with men as a poverty alleviation scheme.

[Ghost Writer ✍️ @Prezain_LJ]

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a woman wanting what her parents never had. Everyone aims to live a better life. Should a girl, because she came from a poor background, now aim to settle with a poor man? The importance of the economic part of marriage can never be overstated. I always say that two poor people should not be getting married.

A woman who is pretty, educated, has a job or business, and a decent character can aim to marry a man who is rich, and she is not aiming for too much.

I know a few women whose lives were transformed because of the men they married. They are living their best lives, have beautiful children, and most importantly, are happily married. Meanwhile, those who settled for less are struggling with their husbands. There is no fun in poverty. I cannot fault anyone who does anything legal to break free from it.

We should stop victimizing women who look to marry wealthy men. If the men themselves deem her worthy to marry, that is great.

Women who love to build with a man should build. The ones who love managing should continue doing so. Those who are attracted to broke men, good for them. The ones who can only marry wealthy men, perfect. Everyone should do what works for them.

And how’s that a solution versus having a conversation with him about it first. He might not even be calling his own parents.
What is there to be gained by promoting unnecessary strife & toxicity?

[Fene @FeneAustin]

Whatever he’s doing to your parents you too do to his parents.

[Kings @authosoro]

Country dey spoil dey go, afrobeats is busy with bumbum & Bahamas, Nollywood & a dozen unrealistic Lekki romance everyday, everyone else & their cousin trying to be the next viral skit maker.

When & how do we actually start building a future that works for all of us.

[Kings @authosoro]

My brother, let’s call a spade a spade regardless of whose ox is gored. The budget is public information. One doesn’t need private access to him to make a fair judgement.
I wouldn’t go as far as calling for his resignation, but can we all at least agree that the budget is a mess.

Kindly watch and share your thoughts

[Kings @authosoro]

So I don’t get what the fuzz is really about except for attention.
A world without order & norms is not the utopia you imagine.

[Kings @authosoro]

Let’s assume you’re not rage baiting. It might interest you to know that social norms & traditions exists in every culture & this has nothing to do with misogyny in Igbo culture as you put it. But again, the classic hammer & nail problem.

[Sunshine❤️❤️ @precy_oma]

In Igbo land, a woman is not allowed to eat the chicken gizzard. It must be eaten by a male.

In the absence of her husband or a male adult, a male would rather eat the gizzard than an adult woman eating it.

And if there is no male around, she would keep it and wait for a male or even trash it.

[Kings @authosoro]

In the practice you mentioned, the parts are shared symbolically, same way eldest man gets the gizzard, the woman gets the waist, youngest child gets the head. Gizzard is by no means the choicest part of chicken even & no one will hold you from buying & eating it.
