@TosinOlugbenga Just a subscription of 9,999/month. Would get it up and running.
We're reliable at what we do and have onboarded businesses here in the southeast.

@Hussain_Joe @tomilola_ng Aside from LLM the real problem is staring us right in the face. Both AI and infrastructure

English

@tomilola_ng I think we should let fintech rest for a while and channel our energy towards other things that can help build Africa as a continent and put us at the tippy top. Let's start with training our own LLMs. It's expensive, yes, and hard. But let's try...

@evolutionapp_ Great product.
As much as I can receive in USD,
Do foreign clients also need to download your app to use it to send to someone here in Nigeria?

@BoiMedli @commando_skiipz Of course 9-5 pays depending on your role level.
The guy would have given him a chance, and shown him the brighter side to make legit money. He could convert a soul from going down that path.
English

It’s what we get for letting narratives like “9-5 no dey pay” “no rich person has clean money” fester.
Most folks on the street for the longest time don’t have info on opportunities available asides what’s shown to them by yahoo boys and politicians.
As always the loudest narratives always wins, and that’s exactly how we got here.

There’s a guy in my area who I strongly suspect has been monitoring my movements for a while.
I rarely leave my house during the week, except to quickly pick up a few items from a nearby mall. Sometime last month, he noticed my gate was open as I was driving out and immediately rushed over to me.
He said, “Good evening boss, I’ve been meaning to talk to you. I’m a very hardworking guy. In fact, among all the guys around here, I’m the only one who is serious. Abeg give me any update for your side…”
I was confused by what he meant. I told him he was probably mistaken about the kind of work I do, and that I was in a hurry, so we could talk some other time.
On another day, he saw me again and quickly asked for my number. I gave it to him. Immediately after, he said, “I’ll message you on WhatsApp, you’ll see it, a foreign number.” A few minutes later, I received a message from a +1 number with a white woman’s display picture, which I ignored.
At this point, I’m convinced he isn’t the only person in the neighborhood making assumptions.
To them, a young guy who doesn’t dress up and commute every morning around 6am by bus, yet has solar panels and Starlink installed, must be into fraud.
A very stupid mentality.
SB@seyedele
One of the dangerous things about our society now is that people who see you and to them you appear to be doing well, somehow resolve that you have to be into fraud. Random, unexpected message from the guy that painted my house. It’s extremely worrisome.

Around 2012, I was struggling to find my place in tech.
Then Facebook posted a photo of its engineering team and I saw a Black engineer who looked like me.
I later learned he was Nigerian. His name was Ola.
That moment made the dream feel possible.
I kept that photo as my screensaver for 3+ years. Every time I felt like quitting, I reminded myself:
“If he can do it, why not me?”
Today, @ola works at OpenAI.
And after 14 years, I finally get to meet him.
You never know who’s watching you…
Or whose life you’re changing just by showing up.

I prefer trading options over futures because risk is defined and downside is limited. With @clickoptions_ai, options can offer a cleaner way to express a view without liquidation pressure. #ClickOptions #optionstrading #CryptoTrading

Omo I haven’t made $1k not to talk of $10k since I bought this

@TechnicalBben ODE? You mean Ordinary Differential Equation 😄
Anyway, I’ve got my PVC.
Tech won’t magically thrive without power, food, infrastructure, solid networks… basics first.
Voting for a future where the next generation doesn’t have to struggle through tech like we did -home or abroad

@TuoyoS26091 @AyDanzee Cool stuff.
In my case I need my use to connect back to my account instead of card.
Can your system handle reoccurring debit on Client Bank account instead of debit card
English

@AyDanzee Paystack does support recurring payments with auto-renewal, as long as you use Plans + Subscriptions, and the user pays with a card (not transfer)
English

Yo chat, so today I implemented a free trial subscription system with Paystack, and it was actually a fun engineering problem to solve.
Natively, Paystack doesn't support trials the way Stripe does out of the box. Stripe lets you just set a trial period and it handles everything. But paystack.. i'm on my own
So here's the approach I went with:
When a user starts a trial, I charge their card NGN 50 just to verify and authorize it, then immediately call Paystack's refund API to return that NGN 50 back to them. This way I have their authorization_code stored, which is basically a token that lets me charge that card again in the future without them being present.
After 14 days, a BullMQ background job fires and uses that authorization_code to charge the full subscription amount silently. If the charge fails, it retries at day 1, day 3, and day 5 before finally canceling and downgrading the account to free.
I also worked on:
> Reminder emails at 3 days and 1 day before trial ends
> A daily cron job as a backup in case the queue misses anything
> Full idempotency so users can't get double charged
trial_eligible flag so once you cancel a trial, you go straight to paid next time, no second trial
The whole thing runs on Node.js, MySQL using Docker compose, BullMQ, Redis, and Nodemailer.
Cool stuff fr.

Unpopular opinion: Startups & Developers will no longer need designers in prototyping any type of software, all thanks to:
- Claude Design
- Stich by Google
- Figma and Canva
UxUi Tega (Design & Ai)@Tegadesigns
Unpopular opinion: Designers will eventually replace developers in shipping Apps, websites and MVPs with the use of Ai.
