Let me tell you people how Tinubuβs tenure will go. Itβs so easy to predict.
1. In June, subsidy will be removed. This will trigger inflation never seen in Nigeria before. I see people refer to transportation costs (for humans), but itβs a lot more than that.

the fact that you canβt even afford a little treat or buy yourself something nice without feeling like youβve made a terrible financial decision is so exhausting. youβre working 9β5, 40 hours a week, and somehow even enjoying the money you earn feels irresponsible.

If you want to get out of your current life situation, you shouldnβt be worried about how long it will take to change it. You have nothing better to do than to work on something meaningful. Who cares if it takes 12 months or 12 years when it's going to be difficult either way.

There is a type of lock-in that you cannot do in Nigeria.
Is it with 4 hours of electricity? Lol.

American politics is an infinite revolving door:
Democrats get power, does something absolutely retarded, lose to Republicans
Republicans get power, has no idea what to do, gaslights you, lose to Democrats
You really wonder how anything even gets done in this country

DevOps engineers are going to make so much money if they learn to run local AI on Kubernetes. This is the first documented case of huge savings by local AI Iβve seen so far
Revolut: Europe's most valuable startup ($200B) just showed the world its AI strategy.
Every company will end up copying it.
At the start of this year, Revolut leaned on the frontier labs. Its 2,000 engineers used Claude Code and Codex, and some burned $1,000 to $10,000 a month each. The bills kept climbing, and the returns weren't there.
So Revolut switched its default to an open-source model called GLM. All it needs is GPUs, which it rents from Together AI.
The results, by Revolut's own count:
- The bill is about a tenth of what it paid OpenAI and Anthropic
- Engineers get unlimited tokens instead of spending caps
- Coding time is down 60% and lead time is down 70%
That's the chart below.
Revolut still uses Claude and GPT, but only as "the exception," for the tasks they do best. Everything else runs on open source.
So here's the question I keep coming back to: how many use cases can companies really justify sending to frontier models?
My answer is very few. Plenty of companies still route everything to OpenAI and Anthropic today. For how long?
I think open source ends up handling the vast majority of corporate AI work, and frontier models get a short list of the hardest jobs. That's a problem for labs whose revenue forecasts assume unlimited growth.
If you appreciate unpopular takes, follow me @m0xt_ for more.

The dark web put me on to BTC back in 2016/17.
So, I started mining BTC and completing tasks.
I went as far as linking all the computers in our office so I could mine faster and complete more tasks.
IT found out and I almost lost my job.
Anywayβ¦ donβt go on the dark web if you donβt have the stomach for very dark stuff.
I saw gore, drugs, weapons, credit cards and even assassins.

fastest way to quantum leap to a new timeline is to start making new decisions
repeated patterns keep you locked to specific timelines
