We don’t need more tourism apps. We need better digital infrastructure. That was one of the key takeaways from @gonahasa's conversation on the future of tourism in Uganda.
The challenge is not a shortage of attractions or tourism businesses, but fragmented data and disconnected systems that make experiences harder to discover, plan, book and pay for.
As travellers increasingly turn to AI to plan their journeys, Uganda’s tourism sector must become more digitally visible, connected and future-ready.
From AI and QR codes to WhatsApp, digital bookings and payments, the opportunity is to build an ecosystem that seamlessly connects the traveller to the experience.

The #threejs Cyberpunk project just got an update! 🌧️
You can now take shelter from the rain and see water splashes, thanks to some amazing optimisation work by @sea3dformat using a GPUCompute-based collision system. A really cool technique with incredible performance.
Come join us at @threejsconf and learn this and many other techniques at the #threejs TSL Workshop!

Day 2 is here!
And there is even more to unpack. As we continue exploring “Leveraging AI, Digital Infrastructure and Innovation to Accelerate Uganda’s 10X Growth to $500 Billion,” we look forward to insights from the Guest of Honour, Hon. @JustineLumumba, Minister for ICT and National Guidance; Dr. @azawedde, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of ICT and National Guidance; and Hon. Tom Butime, Minister of Tourism, Wildlife and Antiquities, alongside leaders, innovators and industry voices shaping Uganda’s digital future.
With thought-provoking discussions, live exhibitions and opportunities to connect with the people building what comes next, Day 2 is one you want to experience from the room—not hear about afterwards.
Join us at the National ICT Innovation Hub, Nakawa, and be part of the conversation.

Hon.@DrMusenero today launched the AWIP Minerals Cluster, where women showcased gemstones available in Uganda and the opportunity to actively move into value addition, cutting, polishing, processing and higher-value markets. An MOU was signed between @AfricanBizCouncil, FAHARI

With most AI coding tools, the agent writes the code for you, and you never learn how it works. AAIF Ambassador Dakota Fabro built Learning Mode to help you learn as you build. The agent guides you through the work instead of doing it for you. It gives you less help as you improve. Learning Mode works with @goose_oss, @claudeai Code, @cursor_ai , and Claude Desktop. Take a look:

Join the virtual MCP Community Event on August 6, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM PDT for technical sessions covering production deployments, security, observability, governance, the latest MCP specification updates, and real-world implementation patterns from organizations building with MCP today.

The MCP authorization spec just shipped a security-hardening pass, and it's worth understanding what changed and why.
@ayshsandu walks the full flow against the 2026-07-28 spec: discovery, client identity via CIMD, audience binding with the resource parameter, and the new firm requirement for issuer validation on authorization responses.
That last one matters. Without it, the IdP mix-up attack is the mirror image of audience confusion, and both have the same root: nobody checked who they were actually talking to.
The post also covers why token passthrough is a structural failure, not just bad practice, and where OAuth hands off to the agent layer on step-up.

Building the next generation of AI for education in Africa with Gemma 4 🇺🇬
What could Gemma 4 unlock for a teacher with 80 children and ten textbooks?
This week: co-design workshops with primary teachers, shaping AI that plans lessons and builds reading exercises, fully offline, on an everyday phone.
Teachers aren't testing this. They're building it with us.
Phase 2 with Fab AI is underway. More soon.
Attach: 2–3 photos (X crowds more than that).

Thanks to AAIF for publishing my latest piece on measuring AGENTS.md.
I ran the same coding-agent tasks five times with and without repo guidance. One run pointed to the wrong conclusion. The full results showed measurable differences in time, credits, and unnecessary code changes.

AGENTS.md didn't become a standard because vendors mandated it. It spread because developers needed a shared way to give coding agents repo context.
@acolombiadev, Senior Developer Advocate at GitHub, tested how repo-level guidance impacts real agent workflows across multiple runs. The results show that clear, specific instructions help agents stay focused, reduce unnecessary work, and improve task efficiency.

Yesterday I put SkyLume out as a web app. Free live TV and radio from around the world. No account, no subscription.
By evening my replies and WhatsApp were full of the same ask. Make it an app. Put it on my phone.
So I stayed up and built it. Last night it went to both the Play Store and the App Store. It is with the reviewers now.
Any day now it lands on your phone. I will let you know when available to download. Usually Google approves faster than Apple but lets see who approves faster
