One reason I love #hackathons is the fact that you need to iterate & execute fast.
But this is on a different level: #Kiro writes the #code and CDK and deploys to #cloud.
The sheer speed of #AI enabled #development & deployment completely outpaces all other hackathons I’ve been.
THE COPY-PASTE PROBLEM
Why copying Silicon Valley playbooks is hurting African startups
In this episode, we explore what really happens when global startup models are applied without context https://t.co/JmJARPw7my
Been using @ScrapingDog in my n8n + AI automations — absolutely love how smooth the API is.
It handles LinkedIn, job boards, and web data like a champ 🔥
Perfect blend of speed + reliability for AI-driven workflows.
What if the future already outruns your blueprint? 🤔
Most teams play catch-up — patching tech gaps with AI like slapping a Band-Aid on a mutating virus.
Flip the script: treat gaps as chances for strategic transformation. Build vaccines, not new pills every week.#AI#Strategy
How do you turn strategy into architecture when developing robust software systems? 🤔
Engineer's view: Focus on robust system design.
Architect's view: Align with board strategies and legal frameworks.
Architecture is the bridge between vision and reality.
What does “transparency” mean in your org?
I used to think it meant clear logs — the engineer in me wanted visibility into every system event.
Building a voting platform taught me:
🔹 Engineer-me: Transparency = logs.
🔹 Architect-me: Transparency = governance + accountability

Hi @prisma there used to be a Vue js tutorial on your https://t.co/9a1cYHGwjb I guess it is now outdated, that's why it was removed. I would like to do something similar, maybe update the old or create a new one in Nuxtjs (a Vuejs framework).
Let me know how I can contribute 🚀
At eWorker, our mission is to unlock a world of possibilities in AI for talented individuals.

Great taste is knowing what’s good, and great skill is knowing how to build things. These two elements work together for growth: whenever my output is subpar with respect to my taste, then I know I need to improve my skills.

An intense 4 hours, 13 Technical Challenges across Python, Message Queues (MQTT), JavaScript, Docker, and a myriad of others, I emerged victorious at the #aql Smart Cities Hackathon! 🏆
An adrenaline-fueled journey with @aqldotcom at @nexusunileeds#hackathon#IoT#smartcities
🎉 Exciting news! 🎉
I've just published the django-paystack package on PyPI! 🚀
This package provides Django @djangoproject Paystack @paystack (by Stripe) Payments functionality, making it easier than ever to integrate Paystack payments into your Django projects.
It uses the Paystack v2 (most recent) API, and also supports the latest Django framework. I intentionally decided not to support Django<2.2 most other packages already did and so clumsy to use.
The usuals are missing: sufficient tests and docs, and sure you contribute!
Saw in a report that @flyairpeace is still looking for timeslot in Gatwick airport. Having gotten the approval to fly into the UK… why not fly into Manchester or Edinburgh.
80% of Nigerians that fly into 🇬🇧 don’t live in London. They wouldn’t mind the commute. That’s your market
It was an awesome moment meeting people of timber and caliber and from various backgrounds and walk of life. Don't under estimate the power of connection.
At the Play and Win in Tech Zoetech Meetup, the mind was fed and the belly followed suite.
