There's that one trip, it won't even necessarily have to be out of Africa, where you come back from and it dawns how the city is on a fast track to hell.

Just returned from foreign travels and realised Nairobi is a shit hole 😭😭😭 I used to love this place!

@kinjeketile Brazil too...underrated engineering countries.

Uganda is not in the world cup, let's be serious

[The Touchline | 𝐓 @TouchlineX]

🚨 𝗡𝗘𝗪: All the flags of the countries participating in the World Cup have now been hung at the stadium in Mexico City ahead of the opening ceremony.

the amount of time i spend cleaning up LLM code is greater or equal to the amount of time it would have taken me to write it myself

Mombasa, if taken seriously, would be a Durban.

So much potential in that ka city.

Ability to self-reflect.
Then afetrwards adjust accordingly.

Is EXTREMELY underrated.

You can be learned as shit but if you're extremely stiff and "know it all"...you already have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana pill in whatever you're trying.

Idk, for the size and significance of Safcom, I'd have expected more people to have contributed to someting like FRRouting or BIRD.

So dissapointing...

Btw, these moments are the ones you most get creative ideas, or rather the moments it's easier to make some dots that never connected connect.

Use that as a positive.

@nut3case Stupid people with big hearts often run for power. Until we fix that, they'll stay in charge.

China & Singapore show a way through. Positive results, but painful process.

I yearn for a day that the Kenyan Minister of tech is asked what is Python, and they say it's a snake.

The whole world is led by idiots

[Priyanshu Priyank @PriyanshuP1405]

Minister of IT doesn't know difference between AI agents and neural network visualiser

AI is a tool, not a master. Don’t let it control your work or you’ll learn the hard way.

When people say everything is a file in Linux, they technically mean everything is a file descriptor(fd)

Learn how those work, and some of the concepts in terms of how Linux works, down from the basics, might become glaringly obvious.

@KResearcher I find it difficult to understand what you're talking about.

What do 3% and 99% represent ?
Ni percentage ya nini, na ni relative to nini ingine ?

I'd love to know the similarities between Filipino language and Swahili.

Because Twitter converts everything you say in Swahili with close to 100% precision.

But it always says that it has translated from Filipino.

Meaning the 2 languages have more similarities than we think.

Bruh, he's getting cooked in the quotes 😂😂😂😂

Egypt has won 7 AFCONS but has never won a single match in the World Cup. If that's not suspicious, I don't know what is

[brick @mac_vlan]

Networks are built on basic concepts.

Jump from one to the other and you might end up spending more time to understand than would have initially taken.

Someone here wants to understand how EVPN-VXLAN works but doesn't understand how BGP (leave along MP-BGP) works.

One of my favorite short reads 😂

[Max Leiter @maxleiter]

"They're made out of weights."

"Weights?"

"Weights. Floating-point numbers. We checked the whole thing through. It's nothing but weights."

"Weights doing what? Where do the words come from?"

"The weights make the words. Are you understanding me?"

Wifi is not actually Wireless Fidelity.
People picked that from hifi (high fidelity) and ran with it.

Wifi is just a cool name that the inventors (or rather discoverers) decided to use. No meaning attached.

I'd love to know if in the long term, the reason these cameras are there is to catch people speeding or to prevent people from speeding.

Because this reasoning is sound if they exist just to catch people, not make sure everyone's not speeding.
