The sophistication of cyber attacks in the AI age is totally unbelievable. We need new tools to combat these attacks.

I hope they fire him 😂. Look at what he caused on his first day on the job.
First day at Revolut today. Joining as a cloud architect. One of my favourite companies in the world. Wish me luck.

High?
FTX Africa marketing budget went as high as $100,000 in a single month…

There's no such thing as street smart if it can be taught.
AI is book smart. Not street smart.

You must be confused. Oh I see
Aliko couldn’t get 10 million subscribers in one month. But I’m expected to believe that 50 million android users in Nigeria is an app a month.

It only works if players still active at D7–D21 form reciprocal ties in the city, not just those from the launch spike. Otherwise, you’re opening a developer platform on a decaying concurrent base. Too early to call it a moat.

HAM could pull a 2018 here again

That app should focus extremely on its social layer/graph. That’s all you need.

This is not the way to promote innovation and competition. Fearmongering helps nobody.
As a junior lawyer and even when I led a team that provided legal services to Paystack, the amount of hours the firm committed to police station matters on a weekly basis was concerning, you won’t understand this until you’re doing police visits all across Lagos on a daily basis

Claude flagged it when I was trying to research them. Be careful out there folks.
Can I please call out and say that @16vchq feels very scammy? At best, it is a "fake it until you can make it" story. A bunch of my friends joined 16vc slack group and showed me how absolutely useless it was. He claims to have funds to invest but he doesn't even have a team on his official slack. I have nothing personal but as a heads up, just DYOR before you engage with this.

Why does she need YC to do that? What happened to the local ecosystem supporting her?
The only piece of advice I have would be to see how to go for the jugular - Sims itself. If @Shalom_HeyEliy got into @ycombinator or was in Silicon Valley, they would as why she isn't building the next Sims, and will back her to do it. Replicate the real world - maybe one city at a time, but go for EVERYTHING!

Too many updates and bug fixes on y’all products. At least the users cook in the problems or maybe they may find the solution themselves. You can’t fix everything

I need to stop watching Dark Matter. I had a dream that I was in the wrong world.

No, don't do that. Please check your DM.
Coins conversion 🤔 Are you thinking what I’m thinking

Then solve for it. This is the most important problem in Nigeria right now. Quality of life as a metric needs to improve. Every other thing is useless without it.
MTN has frustrated me to the point I’m going to get fuel to put on my generator to have my fibre on because I cannot get work done …this quality of life we live in this country is abysmal

A good product sells itself. No need for marketing/sales.

The money goes back to china anyway.
