Attention is fate. If your attention is compromised, no amount of willpower will save you. Defend the gates of your consciousness with your life, for those gates are, in fact, your life

I grew up playing The Sims 3 and always wondered what it would be like if the Sims lived in a world inspired by ours.🤷🏽♀️
Then I saw @eureka_seamless riding a danfo through Lagos, and it sparked an idea: Lagos Life Sims.
Take a look around. Who knows, you might make a new friend in the Sims world.

As you become an adult, you realize that things around you weren't just always there; people made them happen. But only recently have I started to internalize how much tenacity *everything* requires. That hotel, that park, that railway. The world is a museum of passion projects.
let me put it this way. The type of environment that allows healthcare workers to leave accident victims untreated..
Is the type that would expel healthcare student for dancing..
Both actions are from the same mindset.
Ari solves a Rubik's cube while Griffin coaches him from what it sees in his hands, and when he goes quiet to think, it waits. Its perception is always on, so it acts without being asked. Note: this actually blew our minds seeing happen live.
Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test.
48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video.
It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).
Launching Nigeria’s National Digital Alphanumeric Postcode System is the first step.
Its true impact will come as we weave it into how we live, do business, connect with one another and deliver services across every corner of our country.
Every postcode should mean something tangible: a customer reached, a delivery completed, a community better served, or emergency help arriving where it is needed.
In the days, weeks and months ahead, my office will work with @NipostNgn and key actors across government, business and the technology community to embed this new national asset in our everyday lives.
So to our developers and innovators, let’s build on it.
The API ( You can find documentation here - https://t.co/PFrEDDiCL3) provides a foundation for integrating the postcode into the products and services Nigerians use every day.
So go on and register your organisation: https://t.co/ESLWQuJRIT and start building.
To access the API:
1. Create an organisation account.
2. Submit your Know Your Business (KYB) documentation.
3. Request API access, specifying the access level you need.
4. Receive staging tokens to develop and test your integration.
5. Complete User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with NIPOST’s technical and compliance teams, where required.
6. Receive production tokens and go live.
I also want to hear your ideas.
How can we embed the alphanumeric postcode in commerce, transport, healthcare, agriculture, emergency response and community life?
What would you build, and what problem would it solve?
1/ Everyone in Nigeria has a location. Now every location has a postcode.
Today, on our Independence Day, NIPOST launches the National Digital Postcode System. 🧵 #KnowYourPostcode
2/ For generations, Nigerians have given directions instead of addresses: "after the mosque," "opposite the big mango tree." Parcels get lost, emergency services lose precious minutes, and businesses can't reach customers.
3/ The new system gives every home, shop, farm, school and office a precise, digital alphanumeric postcode, mapped and managed from our new NIPOST GIS lab.
4/ This is more than mail. A precise address is the foundation for e-commerce and last-mile delivery, emergency response, access to banking and credit, and better planning of public services.
5/ My deepest gratitude to President @officialABAT for his vision and support under the Renewed Hope Agenda, and to the Hon. Minister @bosuntijani, whose leadership in building Nigeria's digital economy made this possible.
6/ Thank you to the NIPOST @NipostNgn family, our partners, and every Nigerian who brought this together. This is national infrastructure built by Nigerians, for Nigerians.
