We do learn but not in Zambia.

Meanwhile in Nigeria

I had to fire my best engineer yesterday On Monday I asked him to work on a feature I estimated at least 8 weeks of work Tuesday morning he messages me: "done" I thought he was joking, but the feature worked perfectly "How did you manage to do it so fast?" I asked him "Oh I just used ChatGPT and Claude" "You did fucking what?!" I screamed Our company data, sent to American servers I called legal and HR into the room immediately He was terminated within the hour Then I deleted the entire feature from our website We will rebuild it from scratch, without using any AI No wonder 90% of American startups fail if they cut corners like this

I think this is where the rest of Africa is headed in most aspects of life.

I remain Jesus-Curious, but I want to be real for a minute and say some things: - I was shocked by the music before it began, it was so beautiful. I didn't know that people looked like that when they sang along; like so connected to something. I cried a lot during the music and don't know why. - I knew that Charlie was a Christian, but I didn't know that he did all of this for Jesus. I knew he loved Jesus, but I thought more about his drive for social change and real leaders. I didn't know he like literally did it all for Jesus. - If @bennyjohnson was a pastor, I would go to that church every week. - I realize a big thing I am afraid of with it is having to change. I would have to change. What Erika said about the answer is love and always love... I'd have to change. I don't know. But I do know that I came to X to complain about the USDA and now I'm writing my feelings about Jesus on the internet. I have met so many amazing people here who believe in Jesus and I never expected that. This was long.

I listened to Erika Kirk’s full speech at the memorial, and I want to share a few thoughts that came to me while live streaming the event. This is not political. First, I should say that I grew up as a Muslim in a Muslim country. I don’t know enough about Christianity to say if what I witnessed is rooted in faith or culture. But what struck me most was how, even though death is heavy and this was by nature a sad occasion, the entire event carried a celebratory spirit that honored life. That contrast hit me deeply. In Islam, even though we believe that good people go to heaven, the relationship with God is taught through fear. Funerals are overwhelmingly sad, often filled with warnings of the terrifying first night in the grave. Growing up hearing that, and then witnessing people celebrate life, speak of God’s love, and remember someone through the impact he had on others; it felt so refreshing, so positive. Second, I was profoundly moved by @MrsErikaKirk’s words. I cannot fathom the strength it takes to stand and deliver such a meaningful speech after losing the love of your life. But even more than that, the grace it takes to forgive the very person who destroyed your world. I cannot imagine myself standing on a stage, sending love to those who cheered your husband’s murder, or inviting others to spread God’s love in response because, as she said, “we do not respond to hate with hate.” That is powerful beyond words. Again, I am ignorant when it comes to Christianity, but if this is what it truly embodies, then I am envious of those who get to experience that feeling.

My take and application to Africa on this Everything else is fine, but I take issue with the word "We." In the context of nationalism, "We" won’t liberate Africa. It is "I," "You" the individual entrepreneurial spirit that holds the key. Africa’s rise will not come from governments or collective nationalistic efforts. Ujamaa tried that, and it failed. It is individual effort what may seem like indirect action today that will ultimately raise the African continent. In my view, governments, especially in Africa, were not designed to deliver the outcomes we citizens often expect. It's like expecting a mango from a mxhongoma tree. The best governments can do is provide policy and infrastructure to enable innovation and entrepreneurship and to be fair, many are already doing that. My bet is on the mjasiriamali.

AI is truly democratizing knowledge and tech as tools for creation. Coding and software were once for the elite, now anyone can jump in. This shift is pushing all of us toward real problem solving.
