A thread on our findings. "Is HydroCityEstate legit? Where are the houses built? "

The first time HydroCityEstate started advertising their offers was in 2017, on Facebook and Twitter (now X). Led by @Samuel_amanor

Do you remember face shield "artificial demand" on the market during COVID-19?

Yes!

@Dee_Floki The new bank of Ghana HQ goes hard too

[U4nor @u4nor]

@wtfisSss @Dee_Floki Ok, I understand where you're coming from. Well explained.

[U4nor @u4nor]

@wtfisSss @Dee_Floki outsourced to his bureau back in Zagreb, Croatia. True to Yugoslav Brutalism, the structure prominently features heavy, exposed raw concrete, bold geometric linework, and monumental expressive volumes.

[U4nor @u4nor]

@wtfisSss @Dee_Floki forged close ties through the Non-Aligned Movement. This led to a wave of Yugoslav architects, designers, and engineers executing massive state-backed projects across Ghana. While Marasović established the initial design concept, the detailed construction drawings were...

@TheMisanthrop15 Yes, you're right. Hotel Doina in Romania and Unity Hall in Ghana were both designed and built in the 1960s

Brutalism in Ghana 🧵

Unity Hall, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology

[Fľøkï @Dee_Floki]

Brutalism in Senegal

[U4nor @u4nor]

@wtfisSss @Dee_Floki Also, let me add that its design emphasizes monumental scale and a heavy, imposing physical presence. The architecture focuses on functional, structural legibility rather than decorative concealment, what architects term as Structural Honesty.

[U4nor @u4nor]

@wtfisSss @Dee_Floki It features exposed concrete, which is the defining material of the Brutalist style (béton brut) and the façade exhibits repetitive, uniform, grid-like patterns.

Starlink is providing high-speed internet to a community tech center in Île-à-Vache, a remote island off the coast of Haiti, connecting hundreds of students and teachers to reliable connectivity for the first time 🛰️❤️

Ghanaians pay TWICE OR MORE the amount, in lump sums, for cars that Americans and Europeans pay with car financing deals.

Think about that!

[kay dee @_kaydeejnr]

“¢380,000 plus shipping to tema port.. you’d only pay duty of ¢127,540”….. meanwhile car has already been shipped and cleared at the tema port months ago for ¢190,000 total😹😹

For anyone wondering what this means:
- Anthropic (and potentially future OpenAI, Google, xAI) models that cost billions to develop will make 0 revenue outside the US
- a big double digit percentage of Anthropic (and potentially OpenAI, Google, xAI) workforce can no longer work there, because they are foreigners and are not allowed to use those models

So Trump just made frontier model development effectively unprofitable and tremendously slowed down Anthropic (and potentially others in the future)

He's handing China the win on a gold platter.

*potentially: if the same restrictions are imposed on other frontier labs and models

No hardware? No problem!

Browser-based microcontroller and electronics simulators have completely changed the game, allowing engineers and hobbyists to prototype directly in the cloud.

Wokwi, Schematik, Withdiode (currently down), Tinkered and a few more.

What do you think?

I Just tried it to build a case for a project my students are working on.

A case for an Arduino Uno, a mini breadboard and an AS608 finger print sensor
