@Akintola_steve@Olusegun_AdeAde What's worse is that one random YouTube guy will do a video and say this tech is the most subscribed in 2026..... then you see techies migrating in droves.
Taking a bite out of every tech apple.
@Akintola_steve Then I went back to understand and study concurrency and went back to DSA foundation and discovered that QUEUE and WORKERS were all I needed to avoid such a disaster.
After implementing.... Since that time till date...
100k requests and more feels like a whisper in the wind
@Akintola_steve Everything felt fine all over the country. It was a massive examination.
Not until when it was time to harvest the result. Poor logic handling because processing was abortwd upon every new request impacted results.
Candidates failed woefully.
@Akintola_steve We went again.... This time I moved the server response to the bottom of the business logic....
And this time ... The servers gave out in production. DB fried... It was chaotic.
My career was on the line at this juncture
@Akintola_steve The depth of exposure here and the necessity to build systems rightly is pure gold.
Most devs are fooled by performance with a few users. The real test comes in a spike in requests and an explosion of concurrency. This is where the frailties of the app be exposed.
WE ARE IN THE DAYS OF NOAH
There is a mystery unfolding before our eyes.
Do you realize that Scripture reveals a time when the world will stand unified before the end comes?
In Revelation 13:7, the beast is given authority over every tribe, tongue, and nation. That level of synchronized influence requires a unified global system.
And long before this, in Genesis 11, the people were “one”, one language, one speech, one agenda at Babel. Unity without God produced rebellion.
The world is becoming one again.
One in culture through social media.
One in character through global narratives.
One in knowledge through digital connectivity.
One in consciousness through algorithmic influence.
This convergence is not accidental. It creates the atmosphere in which both the Antichrist system and the true remnant can fully emerge.
A subtle dilution is taking place. What you see in the world, you now see in the church — the same dressing, the same dances, the same music patterns, the same appetites, the same moral compromises.
Scripture warned us: “As it was in the days of Noah…” (Matthew 24:37).
In Noah’s days, the earth was filled with violence (Genesis 6:11). Corruption was normalized. Perversion was unchecked. Humanity’s imagination was continually evil.
Look around.
What was once whispered is now celebrated.
What was once hidden is now legislated.
What was once shameful is now paraded.
Sexual perversion is being normalized globally. Children are exposed to explicit content within minutes of entering digital spaces. Violence is broadcast in real time. Bloodshed becomes entertainment.
You are no longer influenced merely by the culture of your land, you are being shaped by WORLD CULTURE through the global web.
Romans 12:2 says, “Do not be conformed to this world…” Conformity is subtle. It is gradual. It is absorbed before it is noticed.
Truth is becoming harder to endure. People demand it softer, lighter, diluted, until eventually it disappears.
But 2 Timothy 4:3 warned us that a time would come when men would not endure sound doctrine.
I hear in the Spirit:
“Mix the world until their colors become one.”
A blending. A merging. A dissolving of distinction.
But God has always preserved a remnant.
In the days of Elijah, when it seemed all had bowed to Baal, the Lord said He had reserved seven thousand who had not bowed (1 Kings 19:18).
Strive to be that remnant.
Jesus said if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out (Matthew 5:29). That is violent language against compromise. Radical separation from corruption.
Refuse to conform.
Refuse to blend.
Refuse to dilute.
The world’s evil is now published globally. Its corruption is streamed live. Its pride is celebrated internationally. Humanity is testifying against itself.
And yet, in the midst of darkness, light must shine brighter.
The darker the night, the clearer the remnant.
We will continue this discussion in church this Sunday. Come ready.
@nathanielblow Papa Nath @nathanielblow
Thank God for the grace upon your life.
I really dont know who among your singers is the tenor singer. Please that sister needs to be appreciated specially. The depth and richness of her tone is really exceptional. The harmonies sit well on her tone.
