Mid-week updates hitting right. We’re thrilled to announce a new sponsorship between @djangogirlsho and #HoneybadgerApp! ​Honeybadger is stepping up to sponsor our upcoming cohort, ensuring women builders in Ho get to learn web development entirely free. ⛰️⚡

I have been working on this idea called "open contributions ghana" and the main thing was I couldn't find or know what other developers in ghana are working on and how other devs can also contribute to them. You can do well to add your project. open-contributions-ghana.ver…

Most sign language AI systems look at your hands and ignore your face. That's a problem because in Ghanaian Sign Language, a raised eyebrow isn't an expression. It's a question mark. Furrowed brows with a head shake? That's a negation. The face is the grammar. Sovereign Sign treats facial landmarks and hand landmarks as mathematically equal channels of linguistic data. The result: near cloud-level translation accuracy (BLEU-4 28.15) running entirely on a ₵500 Android phone, with zero video leaving the device. No cloud dependency. No biometric exposure. No data bill eating your daily wage. Pre-print out now. Would love thoughts from researchers, interpreters, and anyone building for the African Deaf community. 🔗 ssrn.com/abstract=6789460 GitHub repo will be available soon #GhanaianSignLanguage #EdgeAI #AccessibilityTech #AfricaTech #MachineLearning

everyone is getting hooked on fumble, like a drug and they’ll take it away on 22nd and we’ll be begging for it to come back

Most mathematicians choose one problem and spend a career solving it. Stephen Moore(@moorekwesi) looked at Africa's most urgent problems and decided all of them were math problems. He was not wrong. Born in Saltpond, Ghana. BSc Mathematics with distinction from KNUST. Then two master's degrees in Europe, one from Kaiserslautern, one from Johannes Kepler University Linz, where he stayed to complete his PhD in Computational Mathematics. He was being shaped by the finest applied mathematics institutions on the continent, and then choosing to come back. That choice is the whole story. Because Stephen did not return to teach and wait. He returned to build infrastructure that Ghana did not yet know it needed. He joined @GhanaNLP and became Director of Programs. What started as a quiet research initiative became the engine behind @KhayaAI, Africa's first AI translation tool for Ghanaian languages. His team published what is now the largest Ghana language dataset ever released online: 41,513 parallel sentence pairs across Twi, Fante, Ewe, Ga, and Kusaal. Not proprietary. Public. So every researcher, every developer, every language technology builder in the world could access it freely. He was not building a product. He was building a floor for everyone else to build on. Then came the grants. Google Research, twice. Over USD 95,000 to advance multilingual and multimodal work for global health. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, for AfriMed-QA, a pan-African medical question-answering benchmark. USD 100,000. The British Council. A collaboration with University College London worth GBP 150,000 for AI solutions to humanitarian challenges. The world kept arriving at his door. He kept answering and routing everything back to Cape Coast. His research now spans computational mathematics, mathematical epidemiology, machine learning, and African language AI. Forty-plus published papers. Collaborations with INRIA in France, University of L'Aquila in Italy, where he is a Visiting Professor. The National University of Singapore invited him to a joint ASEAN-Africa workshop on computational mathematics. He was one of ten Africans in the room. He is also the person who set up a formal exchange program so that mathematics graduate students from the University of Cape Coast can spend a semester in L'Aquila studying at the highest level. Six students have gone so far. More are going. He teaches, supervises, publishes, builds, and then builds the pathway so others can follow. At the 2025 Global AI Summit on Africa in Kigali, Stephen stood at Booth 18 and demonstrated Khaya AI to the world. The tool that started in a research group at a Ghanaian university was now being shown on a continental stage. @moorekwesi is proof that the most powerful thing a mathematician can do is refuse to separate the theoretical from the practical, and refuse to separate their success from their community. ` The equations were never just on paper. They were always about the people.

@Citi973 you are a failed institution, an insult to the idea of “journalism” Nothing but a propaganda mouthpiece for the highest bidder You are in insult to the profession Shut your useless organization down now!!!

and just like that, first release of reflect >|< is out for macos at reflect.aikins.xyz reflect is an app for android users who happen to use macos and or are jealous of iphone mirroring app. it works like the iphone mirroring app. so your android stays where you work
since there has been a huge gap between when i started sharing about reflect >|< and my recent posts, anyone that wasn’t paying attention before found my post vague; so let me explain; reflect is a mirroring app for android users. starting with macos. i started it as a …

@BillGates @melindagates @gatesfoundation - @GhanaNLP @KhayaAI is the go to tool for a lot of the projects you fund, perhaps funding it us directly would be an impactful move 🤔

Last year, around this time, I was finalising the registration of @Printmote at the ORC so we could start properly from day one. A few weeks later, Printmote was fully registered in Ghana, and we welcomed our very first order. Now, in June 2026, Printmote turns one. Since then, we have grown in: orders fulfilled, print surfaces unlocked, team strength, experience and expertise gained Still early, still building, but very proud of how far we have come in one year. If you have any printing needs, we would be glad to fulfil them for you. Place your order at Printmote.com **Don't spam my email.🤨
Meeting tomorrow? Don’t show up empty-handed. Get professionally printed business cards with premium card stock, and matte or 3D shine options that leave a lasting impression. Covered by Printmote Assurance, printed and delivered right, or we fix it at no extra cost.

you know that feeling when your phone is at 7%, you get home and the house at the junction has no lights. you already know what it is. @topboyasante and the community built odumsor.com so you can confirm it, report it, and warn your whole community before they walk into the same thing.

Let's be real for a second, a lot of people are working with data but not actually using data. Spreadsheets everywhere, reports every week, but when it's time to extract insights, that's where things start to feel confusing. #NodeEight #8Playbook #PowerBI #Datacampdonates 1/
