They are training fresh graduates or anyone interested for free

There is no amount of knowledge that you can gather that is more important than execution

There’s nothing wrong with Nigerians loving their traditional cultures. It’s also not the reason the country isn’t developed. The reason we’re like this is because we lack a spirit of excellence, both individually and collectively. We also take pride in anyhowness.

The average Nigerian probably doesn’t hold their culture to heart like the Chinese and Japanese do, but they have a spirit of excellence that was passed down to them through systems their forefathers created.

@emaxj962 i totally agree

[Joseph Brendan @Joe_brendan_]

When an AI coding agent produces the wrong thing, it is usually not because the agent is weak.

It is because it was guessing.

- It guesses what the product should do.
- It guesses which parts of the project it may change.
- It guesses what "done" looks like.

Every guess is a place where things can go wrong.

The skill that removes the guessing is called context engineering: deciding what the agent needs to know, writing it down clearly, and making sure the agent reads it before it works.

That is the whole focus of Friday's FREE workshop. Three talks, each on a different part of steering an agent properly.

I’m looking for a motion designer — who’s very good with launch videos,
You’ll also need to do video editing.
As long as you are an After Effects person, this role will fit you.

You have an edge if you can do AI videos too (the company will provide all the AI tools you need for that)

Send me a DM if you are this person. Hybrid role (Ikeja, Lagos)

I’ve always wanted to build a game.

It was actually one of the reasons I got into tech. I loved the idea that I could learn to code and eventually create my own games.

4–5 years later, I finally did 😭

Meet WittyWorder, my own word puzzle game, now live on iOS and Android.

There’s still so much I want to add, but I’m genuinely happy that something I wanted to do for years now exists.

I made a game, bro 😂 ( Link in the comments )

You’re not a true designer until you’ve scrolled through 86 fonts just to realize the first one was perfect.

A warning to all designers

I'm seeing a dangerous trend on LinkedIn and X, and I need to call it out.

In trying to prove you can "design and build with AI," designers are oversimplifying the process. And it's backfiring badly.

What I'm seeing:

"I built an entire app in seconds with AI."
"You don't need to give any input, AI handles everything."
"Designed and shipped in hours with no effort."

Imagine you're a potential client reading that. Why would you hire a designer if it sounds like they did nothing? Like AI did all the work?

Here's the reality:

Anyone who's actually built something with AI knows the truth. The work is immense.

You need to:

- Write detailed PRDs and briefs
- Know which AI tools solve which problems
- Run commands in the terminal
- Manage API tokens and costs
- Make countless design iterations
- Test, refine, validate
- Make critical decisions at every step

This isn't automation. This is strategy disguised as simplicity.

The damage you're doing:

By making it sound effortless, you're training clients to think designers are obsolete. You're undercutting your own value.

What you should actually communicate:

"I used AI strategically to accelerate execution while maintaining my standards. Here's the thinking behind the decisions. Here's what I refined. Here's the work that went into this."

That's the message that gets clients excited. That's what justifies the rate.

Remember:

Your critical thinking is still essential. Your judgment still matters. Your ability to see what AI missed, that's irreplaceable.

Don't sell yourself short trying to sound impressive. Show the actual work. Show the thinking.

That's what makes you valuable.

Read them and find what actually changed.
I'm documenting these problems as I build SellSnap.

I almost broke my SellSnap dev environment by trying pnpm dev

I normally use npm run dev, but decided to try pnpm.

After switching back to npm, Next.js suddenly couldn't be found: cannot find module ...node_modules\next\dist\bin\next

I initially thought Next.js was broken.

[Ladi Adebayo @baeyrho]

Turns out the real issue was a dependency conflict:

NextAuth → Nodemailer 7+
SellSnap → Nodemailer 6.10.1

Updated Nodemailer → reinstalled dependencies → npm run dev worked again.

Small issue, but a useful lesson while vibecoding:

Don't just throw fixes at errors.
