@IfeOlulesi Happy Birthday, man 👊🏼

@Preacherrapper Respectfully, you said a lot without answering the question.
What sort of gaslighting or wordplay did you employ? I was really surprised to hear you "answer" a question by pushing back another question. That was distasteful and screams a different motive. It is well.

I can't get enough of it ❤️🥹

Bro, when I was Muslim, I used to think I was so holy by washing my feet before prayer.

Islam said, clean yourself before you can stand before God. You do the work. Miss a spot? Do it again. Get dirty? Start over. Scrubbing your record, hoping maybe you’re worthy.

Then I met Jesus.

John 13. The Son of God, robe off, towel in hand, kneeling down to wash His disciples’ feet… right before the cross.

In Wudu, I was at the sink trying to prove I was clean enough for God.

In Jesus, God is on His knees saying, “Let me make you clean.”

Do you understand how wild that is?

This isn’t a servant trying to impress the king.

This is the King becoming the servant, stepping into the mess, the dirt, the shame, and taking it all to the cross.

That’s the difference.

Religion says: fix yourself so God will have you.
Jesus says: I’ll fix you so you can have me.

One is earning.
One is receiving.
One ends in exhaustion.
One ends in freedom.

I used to wash my feet before I prayed.

Now the One I pray to has already made me clean.

Saturday 1pm:

I have this Muslim auntie, and she’s really devout.

Not just culturally, personally. She has a long history of answered prayers. Real things she asked for, and they happened.

I used to wrestle with that.

How do I say Jesus is the only way when her prayer life feels so real—like it saved her from mental hell? If you try to argue with that, you will lose.

Because to her, it’s not a theory. It’s history.

And here’s what most people miss: You can’t tear down someone’s belief system and leave them homeless. You have to show them the home in Christ.

A lot of apologetics today just demolish. Win the argument, lose the soul.

But here’s the truth: Those answered prayers… a lot of them were Jesus.
The character of Jesus.
The mercy of Jesus.
The Holy Spirit moves based on heart posture, not perfect wording.

A sincere heart still matters to a Father who is chasing His kids. That doesn’t make Islam true. It shows how merciful Jesus is.

So yes, expose the cracks. But build Christ louder. Preach the person, not just the proof.

Because my auntie doesn’t need another argument. She needs a revelation.

And Jesus will meet her, even in the middle of praying to someone else. When I prayed to Allah, Jesus was the one who answered me. And I knew it, because I knew His Word, His story, His character.

If you're in computing academia (especially supercomputing), and your paper titles don't begin with one of:
"Towards a better..."
"A new approach to..."
"Rethinking..."
"A lightweight..."
"Performance evaluation of ...",

What are you doing?? 😂😂

Returned from the easter retreat and decided to take my carbon-fiber machine for a spin on the Lake Michigan bike trail. Didn't even wear my full cycling gear, 'cause I didn't plan to do much, yet I ended up biking 2:30 hrs covering 27km to and fro. I'm officially back! Lol

@AskMichaelTaiwo A big congratulations to him. I'm concerned about the visa restrictions though? I hope it doesn't affect his travel.

[Sam @samfatunmbi]

Do you know?
That you can get busy to a point, that you are unable to do ANYTHING, and just watch deadlines pass?
And this is not about poor time management or TODO lists. Infact, if that is your first thought, you've definitely never experienced that level of busy-ness.

[Sam @samfatunmbi]

Idk what to say, man.
THIS IS SO IT!!
It is a sad, unreal but honest reality. More vivid to me because I am dismayed for these same reasons. Software Engineers are cooked, man.

The hilarious part about all this is the snide 'the future favors AI prompters, not SEs' narrative.

Fugaku is indeed a powerful high-performance supercomputer.
However, currently ranked 7th supercomputer in 2026.
1. El Capitan (1.8 exaflops, 11.3m cores)
2. Frontier - 1.35 Ef
3. Aurora - 1.012 Ef
Jupiter Booster, Eagle, HPC6, then Fugaku.
4 of the first 5 owned by the USA.

[Peter Agboola @baba_Omoloro]

There's a supercomputer called "Fugaku" in Japan.

Google search what it can do.

@jaykosai I'm so sorry. 🫂 May God keep being your strength.
If I may, I'll say please don't respond to a person's woes with a narration of yours, beginning with the word, "Lol". I'm sure you know why.
Imagine, someone tags your post and begins with "Lol" as well.
