1st Principles of Life My most favourite book to read is the Holy Quran. I try to read It everyday. Overtime, I realized that the 1st principles of life are spread throughout the Quran. So I started collecting them to internalize and imbibe them. From today, I'll try to share one of these principles via this thread on weekly basis. I hope it serves as a learning point and reminder for you and I.

@aiishadahir What’s source for the daily Yasin?

Quran that should always be recited: Yasin - every morning Kursi - after every salat Mulk - every night Kahf - every Friday And whoever cannot memorize or recite shall listen.

What is the biggest challenge you face as a Muslim trying to achieve the best of this world and the Hereafter?

Replit, turned 10 🎂 To celebrate we’re making it totally free for 24 hours starting at 5am PT. But our work—to make coding accessible for all—goes back to 2011. Watch the highlights from the journey: It’s been an honor to help millions learn & ship. Here is to the next 10!

@SirJarus 😂

Been working on some Excel forecasting for the past two days. Punching numbers - lots of assumptions, estimates, and judgments, and quantifying them. Finally got to the end this evening and I didn't like the final answer I got. I just hissed and closed my laptop. To continue on another day.

@Dontee___ @Ssaasquatch 😂

@Ssaasquatch Some of them dress like thieves.... D&G top, Versace trouser and channele clutch bag they will now look like egungun

Rich people without taste dey always make me laugh man. Sometimes, I see some things some people wey guide pass me by far dey wear for body and in my head I’d be like “bobo yi, o ga oh”

Here's YC's official advice about being truthful and precise about what is pilot, bookings, revenue and recurring revenue. Founders, particularly first time founders, need to sear this into their brains. Don't mistake one tier for another. Be precise, and always be truthful.

@BigdaddyTeflon Nice. How are you finding it? I have Yuvval’s 21 Lessons for the 21st Century but haven’t read it yet

@Haneefabbas Sapiens by Yuvval Noah Harari

What book are you reading?

.@Replit is hiring a Chief of Staff to the CEO. .$240K-$290K to work directly alongside @amasad at the company turning natural language into apps. The framing here is unusual: it's explicitly a high-leverage IC role, not the start of a team. You scale yourself through AI and automation - not headcount. You'll: - Own the hardest cross-functional problems the CEO can't delegate elsewhere - Coordinate the CEO's network to accelerate go-to-market, including internationally - Build integrated views of product, market, and business dynamics that no single function owns Link in thread!
