Just passed my over $10,000 exam, GIAC GWAPT Certified ✅ The journey was long, the late nights were real, and it was worth every bit. Huge thanks to @sisinerd who took a chance on me that I’m worth this & to @SANSInstitute for the incredible partnership with @cybersafehq

SOME NEWS 🚨 this year I'm joining Shark Tank USA!!! 📺 🇺🇸 this was a dream of mine AND my mums...let me explain👇🏾 My nigerian mum raised 4 of us without being able to read or write herself, having left school when she was a child in Nigeria. I struggled with school too - I wasn't a smart kid and couldn't pay attention, so I quickly realised the "traditional path" wasn't going to work for someone like me Then, when I was 12 years old, I discovered Dragons' Den! 🐉 Me and my mum both fell in love with the show. Looking back, I think entrepreneurship offered us both hope - a path to a better life for people like us, who couldn't pass tests in a classroom but were willing to work hard. At 12 I would pause the TV and give my verdict, as if I was the 6th Dragon By 16 I'd discovered Shark Tank and was starting my first (terrible) businesses By 18 I was a university dropout with a start-up And somehow, 9 years later, I ended up sitting in one of those Dragons' Den chairs I used to shout at from our sofa My mum has never fully gotten over it. When I call her today, 6 years later, the conversation is still 80% Dragons' Den - her opinion on what I said, the businesses, what SHE would have done... Btw, i'm genuinely not sure if she knows I have a podcast 😂 i don't think she's ever mentioned it 😅 But she knows Dragons' Den, and that's more than enough for her. I know she's always wanted me to do Shark Tank, so this phone call - telling her that day had come absolutely made my day, and hopefully her's too! I very much hope to do her proud + all of you that have supported me for the longest time... wish me luck!! 👊🏾❤️ P.S who would win in a fight, a shark 🦈 or a dragon 🐉 ???

Google just dropped a 1-hour course on agentic engineering from scratch: 00:00 – How to build your first AI agent 08:24 – Build agent memory (short, persistent, long) 28:34 – Agentic loops, long-running AI agents 40:04 – How to build MCP (MCP vs API) 1:00:22 – Multi-agentic systems This 1-hour watch will replace 10 paid agentic courses on the internet. Bookmark this. Watch this weekend.

You and me when Anthropic extended Fable access for another week

I am a testimony! My first class in 2016 was the reason I got 2 fully funded scholarships with monthly stipend of 750$ and 350$ but had to choose one. This was my way out of poverty! How I for reach where I dey today if not for the first class! If you like let people whine you 🤷

As layoffs continue across the tech industry, questions are growing about what this means for African tech talent in the diaspora and those building skills locally for an increasingly competitive market. Will this talent drain become a talent opportunity for Africa?

Switzerland is the only country in Europe that has given me visas without physically requiring me to appear at the embassy. My executive assistant just emails them to say I need to travel, I mail my passport and printed document to them and few days after, I get my passport back with multi entry visa. As a Nigerian, that gets this treatment without paying extra, I’m grateful. Thanks for treating my family and I with dignity we deserve.

Nigeria’s fintech industry is facing a major infrastructure test. As the CBN pushes data localisation, can local data centres support the scale and reliability Nigeria’s payments ecosystem demands? Operators are raising concerns about capacity and compliance costs.

I’m on summer vacation with my family and waking up to not just beautiful views from my hotel room but also heartwarming messages like these. All she needed to bloom was a laptop and our collaboration with @tryhackme made it possible. This is why I stake it all for women…more than half the time, women just need access! Thank you so much @tryhackme for the 20 laptops you donated to the CyberGirls community. They’re already changing lives.

more bug bounty folks need to take this advice - including me!

“You look familiar” I’m always at home, it’s not me.

$3,700 Anthropic Bug Bounty 🤑 [CVE-2026-55607] Claude Code: unsandboxed code execution from prompt injection via .git worktree confusion by Metnew 🤯🔥 👨‍💻 Metnew (x/v_metnew) 🔗 github.com/Metnew/write-u… 🔗 nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CV… 🔗 github.com/anthropics/cla…

Anthropic Developer Andrej Karpathy: "At OpenAI I saw two types of engineers: ones who write every instruction - ones who describe what they want The second type replaced the first in a year " the Karpathy framework - 3 eras of programming: 1.0 → you write the code → takes weeks 2.0 → you feed data, model writes the algorithm → takes hours 3.0 → you describe what you want in English → takes minutes each era killed the last. most people are still in 1.0 "the best code is the code you never write. you don't program the solution - you program the data -the solution programs itself" he built this at OpenAI - now applies it at Anthropic - the framework never changed watch & save - guide about Software by Andrej ↓

Anthropic engineer: "You're not supposed to prompt Claude. You're supposed to build a system that prompts itself." In 45 minutes she shows exactly how to build an agent that improves itself. Most people are still doing all of this by hand. Watch the session, then save the guide below.

Anthropic Engineer Andrej Karpathy: "The biggest mistake in AI right now - people are forcing agents to work instead of mastering the model first We made that mistake in 2016 at OpenAI - It cost us 5 years " what Karpathy actually means: step 1 → stop forcing your agent to do everything, understand the model underneath first step 2 → demos are easy - products take a decade. self-driving proved it - if you skip the foundation, everything breaks step 3 → the agent is not the product. the foundation is. build that - and agents emerge on their own "you building agents right now - you're at the forefront. not OpenAI. not DeepMind. you " watch - bookmark, then read article below ↓

Proud that my younger self spent time on building foundation through competitive programming and didn’t waste time memorising things so now I never have to do Leetcode and am always ready to appear for a DSA interview anytime with 0 preparation.

Update: I've joined @AnthropicAI and taken leave from the university. Excited to work with many talented, mission-driven people on the defining technology of our time.
