I had to fire my best engineer yesterday
On Monday I asked him to work on a feature
I estimated at least 8 weeks of work
Tuesday morning he messages me: "done"
I thought he was joking, but the feature worked perfectly
"How did you manage to do it so fast?" I asked him
"Oh I just used ChatGPT and Claude"
"You did fucking what?!" I screamed
Our company data, sent to American servers
I called legal and HR into the room immediately
He was terminated within the hour
Then I deleted the entire feature from our website
We will rebuild it from scratch, without using any AI
No wonder 90% of American startups fail if they cut corners like this

@protesthustler@Honeyfarsafi Most African countries are headed that direction, in most aspects from the kind of Leadership and governance, population, urbanisation, resources management etc. blessed are those nations that will see the problem and fix it sooner before it is too late

Hello, world! 👋

Thanks in advance 🙏
For decades, this small West African country was the example. No coups since 1972. Peaceful transfers of power. A working democracy in a region where strongmen ruled.
Then, in December 2025, gunshots cracked through the capital. A group of mutinous soldiers stormed the state TV and declared a new era. They said the government had failed them. That their brothers were dying in the north, fighting jihadists, while politicians in the south rewrote the constitution.
By noon, it was over. Loyal forces crushed the coup. Nigeria sent jets. The president, Patrice Talon, appeared on camera looking calm. Crisis averted. Democracy saved?
Not exactly. Here's what they are not telling you about the coup in Benin Republic.
I remain Jesus-Curious, but I want to be real for a minute and say some things:
- I was shocked by the music before it began, it was so beautiful. I didn't know that people looked like that when they sang along; like so connected to something. I cried a lot during the music and don't know why.
- I knew that Charlie was a Christian, but I didn't know that he did all of this for Jesus. I knew he loved Jesus, but I thought more about his drive for social change and real leaders. I didn't know he like literally did it all for Jesus.
- If @bennyjohnson was a pastor, I would go to that church every week.
- I realize a big thing I am afraid of with it is having to change. I would have to change. What Erika said about the answer is love and always love... I'd have to change.
I don't know. But I do know that I came to X to complain about the USDA and now I'm writing my feelings about Jesus on the internet. I have met so many amazing people here who believe in Jesus and I never expected that.
This was long.
I listened to Erika Kirk’s full speech at the memorial, and I want to share a few thoughts that came to me while live streaming the event. This is not political.
First, I should say that I grew up as a Muslim in a Muslim country. I don’t know enough about Christianity to say if what I witnessed is rooted in faith or culture. But what struck me most was how, even though death is heavy and this was by nature a sad occasion, the entire event carried a celebratory spirit that honored life.
That contrast hit me deeply. In Islam, even though we believe that good people go to heaven, the relationship with God is taught through fear. Funerals are overwhelmingly sad, often filled with warnings of the terrifying first night in the grave. Growing up hearing that, and then witnessing people celebrate life, speak of God’s love, and remember someone through the impact he had on others; it felt so refreshing, so positive.
Second, I was profoundly moved by @MrsErikaKirk’s words. I cannot fathom the strength it takes to stand and deliver such a meaningful speech after losing the love of your life. But even more than that, the grace it takes to forgive the very person who destroyed your world. I cannot imagine myself standing on a stage, sending love to those who cheered your husband’s murder, or inviting others to spread God’s love in response because, as she said, “we do not respond to hate with hate.” That is powerful beyond words.
Again, I am ignorant when it comes to Christianity, but if this is what it truly embodies, then I am envious of those who get to experience that feeling.
