Now to be fair! None of asked the Matatu drivers to protest for us,Therefore we shouldn’t have any expectations from them.

Sisi kama hatutajipigania hiyo ni shauri yetu,we face the consequences in full force. Lets not blame them for our failures

Shida si hao,ni sisi

Truth!

A parasite that has been eating people for 3,500 years is about to be wiped off the planet. It infected 3.5 million people in 1986. Last year, it infected 10. And I have not seen it make a single front page.

It is called Guinea worm. You drink contaminated water from a pond in a poor village. A year later, a worm up to three feet long starts coming out of your leg through a burning blister. There is no pill that stops it and no surgery that works. You wrap the worm around a stick and pull it out slowly, over days or weeks, inch by inch. If you rush, the worm breaks inside you and causes a fresh infection.

Guinea worm is ancient. Preserved worms have been pulled out of Egyptian mummies from around 1000 BCE. The Ebers Papyrus, an Egyptian medical scroll from 1550 BCE, describes pulling the worm out with a stick. For three and a half thousand years, that was the best humans could do.

Then in 1986, public health workers decided to kill the parasite off. They had no vaccine and no drug. What they had was cheap cloth water filters and a small army of volunteers willing to walk from village to village for decades.

The plan was simple. Give everyone who drinks from a pond a cloth filter to strain out the tiny water fleas that spread the parasite. Then send volunteers walking house to house, year after year, teaching people how to use the filters and keeping anyone with an emerging worm out of the water.

It worked. From 3.5 million cases a year to 10. Four were in Chad, four in Ethiopia, two in South Sudan. The other four countries where the worm used to be common, Angola, Cameroon, the Central African Republic, and Mali, had zero human cases for the second year in a row. The World Health Organization has already certified 200 countries as Guinea worm free. Six are left.

The last hurdle is dogs. Cameroon had 445 infected animals last year and Chad had 147, so a lot of the remaining work is on animals, not humans. Strays get leashed, and crews treat ponds to kill any remaining worms. The campaign keeps watching until the number hits zero.

When Guinea worm hits zero, it becomes the second human disease ever erased from the planet. The first was smallpox. It will also be the first parasite humans have ever wiped out, and the first disease ever ended without a single dose of medicine. Volunteers walked village to village with cloth filters for 40 years. Now a plague from the age of the pharaohs is about to be gone.

I had an uncle that was obsessed with European lifestyles. The only problem is he was poor. Imagine a Jeff Koinange with a Rongai chef budget. People really made fun of him. He once asked for a fork and knife in a mutura joint 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

When I started making a little money, I took him to Marble Arch Hotel in Nairobi. I wanted to see if all the table etiquette he always preached was real or just some nonsense. To my surprise, he was right about all the spoons and forks and the placement of various knives. His eyes had a light I had never seen , "nephew this is called a soup spoon " he would explain .He must have smiled for 6 hours straight.

In the village he was just a mad man, but here he was in his element. I went back and preached his gospel. People didn't believe me. They thought I had gone mad too.

Maybe William is not mad. Maybe when we get to Singapore we will be surprised. But for now, those preaching his gospel like Oguda will continue to sound mad.

One of the most embarrassing moments kwa hii maisha ni ile time me and my Uncle tulipea lecture Kijana fulani wa nyumbani whom, in our heads, tuliona amepotea and had been “written off” by society.

We had summoned him hapo Club Tunnel to give him a dressing down and advice on several ways to get on the right track. The young man looked emotional, akiwa ameinamisha kichwa kwa meza, full of what we deduced was “regrets” for taking the road less traveled.

Immediately, Jomba wangu akanikanyaga mguu chini ya meza and winked at me; a special gesture niingie kwa simu and check our secret WhatsApp group where we share “intel.” Kuangalia, nikapata ameandika in Marakwet, “Kikuchus Cheptipi” (we have captured the jackal).

I started laughing inwardly, but some tears started forming in my left eye. Nikaomba waitress serviette and started wiping them away, pretending to be heartbroken and putting myself in his shoes, nikisema, “Ngwan keroti kupetsot Vijana, ama mi chi nyi mwoe kiy.” (It’s painful seeing the youth wakipotea yet nobody is saying anything.

After a while, the young man signaled the waitress using non-verbal cues tunatoka kidogo atuchungie meza. We celebrated prematurely, tukajiambia in low tones as we followed the “wayward man” anataka kutupeleka nje, away from the drunken crowd, to wail openly mbona hataki kufuata “procedure” ya maisha.

Once outside, we followed him silently, then without warning; he pulled out what looked like car keys and pressed a button; suddenly, a black Toyota Prado lit up with hazard lights.

My rickety Toyota 110, which I had used to pick up my Uncle in Syokimau, was parked just a few meters away from the fuel guzzler. Kitu ingine kama mild paralysis ikanichapa; nikajishikilia kwa drums zingine near the entrance. I nearly tipped over, but luckily my uncle held me and reassured me, “Meimkei, driver nyipo mHeshimiwa araket.” (Don’t stress yourself; the fool ni personal chauffeur wa Mkubwa.”

Kijana akaingia gari, akapiga start, then akashuka na akasema the road warrior ni yake. We were in denial, so as we pretended to circle the car, kicking the humongous tires in admiration, I secretly called my confidant who works at the border and has direct access to NTSA systems to check the vehicle’s details. He confirmed, indeed, the boy ako top 30 under 30.

We walked back into the club in silence, and for the rest of the night we drank in deep thought, questioning our lives and whether we worship the same true God of Israel.

We took turns going to the washroom kulia, kutoa hasira, na kuosha uso kwa sink kuficha emotions before returning to the table to entertain and “worship” the “big man.”

[Himanshu Tyagi, IFS @Himanshutyg_ifs]

Unlike other predators like tigers, which kill prey with their teeth, eagles kill through compression — using their feet. An eagle's foot is its primary weapon, for both hunting and defence. A lot of physics and engineering have gone into its design. Let's understand it.

Even the strongest human can grip an object at a max. of 50 PSI, but an eagle grips its prey at up to 400–750 PSI — enough pressure to pierce through thick skin or even the bones of prey like monkeys or birds.

The talons are so engineered that the moment anything enters their grip, compression happens automatically. Eagles also strike at speeds of 30–50 mph, so many prey die on impact even before the crushing begins.

In this image, you can see 3 forward-facing talons and 1 facing backwards — called the hallux. The hallux is the longest and most lethal talon, driving deepest into the prey on impact. The moment an attack lands, the prey is caged from 360 degrees — no room, no chance of escape.

#Nature engineered this with precision. The physics is brutal and perfect.

If you were in Samburu and you needed a mammogram to screen for breast cancer, you would have to travel all the way to Nairobi for that.

Nvm breast cancer is the commonest cancer among women in the country and the 3rd leading cause of cancer deaths in Kenya.

My friend amepigiwa simu leo akiwa juu ya tractor kuulizwa jina ya mtoto. His wife alienda maternity jana usiku in the company of her sister in law, and a handsome little man arrived in the morning.

Man's anasema he's now ready to die. Our lives begin to end the day we father male babies, they say.

There are people we should send to talk to God he listens to them ,there is a guy who sold murum to the contractors of the Nairobi rironi highway. For 1k per lorry he sold about 100 a day for 6 months do the math ,but then the contractors left a huge hole and we thought the land useless. Then an estate was digging a water reservoir and they had a problem of where to dump the soil ,he was then paid another 1k a lorry for another 4 months to fill the hole left now his land is back as was 🤣🤣🤣. This should be the pastors not that dimpled charlatan wa bypass .

[random guy on the internet @KharayKrayKray]

The ex before the ex before my last ex liked to walk around the house with nothing else but her panties on. I asked why and she told me at the time, she had only dated one guy(her words, not mine) and he liked her like that.

I told her I didn’t as I appreciate a little packaging, not full on clothes but attires like lingerie and sports bra send me over the edge.

To me, her package was high end peak material but I couldn’t navigate around the distribution. The mode of distribution should highly depend on your audience as different people like different things.

Let’s take software distribution for example, there’s more than one ways to share working code and it depends on who you’re sharing the app to.

Are you sharing raw code that only developers can work with? Or user end apps everyone can access from anywhere? Or just a business platform that should only be accessible over an API?

There are many structured ways to share code based on your audience, well cover a few.

1. Raw source code distribution:
You can host your code on GitHub or a cloud storage and allow others download and run it. It sounds straightforward but can be difficult to even experienced developers if installation and dependencies aren’t well documented.

2. Applications:

Applications are one of the most popular ways to share programs to end users. This includes web applications/websitee, mobile applications, compiled binary for computers and so on. They’re best for less tech savvy consumers and large businesses with many operators.

3. SDK:
An sdk is code bundled into a package you can install and integrate with other your own platforms and API.

4. Containers:
Containers are code and dependencies bundled into images that can be run without any extra installations. They’re best for backend services, microservices and pipelines.

5. Software As A Service( SAAS):

This type of software isn’t usually installed locally by end users, you create it, host it somewhere and users access it through browsers or other APIs.

There are various other ways to share your software code like game console builds, firmware, plugins and extensions, CDN etc.

The method of packaging should depend on the target user and what they’re comfortable with.
