The Chinese enslaved one another also buried humans alive with dead kings. The same culture, mind you, that created gunpowder, compass, paper and printing.

This is an answerable question. Who's the economist that will do the rigorous evaluation.

@CryptDeey @Ebitaam Why?

@docneto @Ebitaam This line of thought is really weird

What a woman refers to when she says this is the significant opportunity cost of being with a man at his lowest while she's in her prime. Remember that men and women's primes are not contemporaneous. A woman's prime is in her early twenties. Presumably in that time, she rejected approaches from men of higher status in favor of the lower status guy she loves. A guy's prime on the other hand is his mid 30s. So by the time the guy gains status, she's lost hers. She thus expects the man to pay her in like manner by sticking with her the same way she stuck with him in her prime. This of course doesn't always happen and leads to angst. The simple way out of this is for young women in their prime to date the highest status person they have access to and get him to commit.

Pedophilic ke! Words have meaning you know.

@Ebitaam Prime is when the other gender rates you as most valuable. In other words, it's when you have the most number of people of the opposite gender interested in you.

@docneto What exactly does prime mean in this context, cause I sense two different meanings.

Put openclaw to a number of tasks and they turned out to be too cumbersome and took way too long. Tried it at a smaller task and got instant results. Seems to me that to use it well, you still have to break down the tasks into manageable chunks. Still learning.

This is one of the reasons women outlive men. One day I was a doctor on duty. Two patients came into my unit to be assessed. One an elderly woman who lived alone, another an elderly married man. The woman drove herself to hospital because she felt funny and wanted to get checked out. The man was forced to come by his wife after weeks of her insisting. Why was she insisting? He had been coughing up blood for weeks. The woman that felt funny turned out to be having a silent heart attack and got prompt treatment and got discharged in no time. The man, on the other hand, had a growing lung tumor and ended up riddled with lung cancer. The woman came cuz of a funny feeling, the man delayed despite a serious symptom. Of course women will outlive men. Men don't play with any symptoms you get. Go get checked and take your health seriously.

Imagine trying to bluff your way through a senior dietitian role in the NHS. What's worrying is that her Nigerian references apparently checked out. If it gets harder for Nigerian dietitians to enter the UK you'll know why.

@kenyanpundit @asemota You know how we do! Those watches will not buy themselves!

Any countries in Africa positioning themselves for the big LNG opportunities? Or are guys just buying big watches and stuff?

In medicine prescribing and dispensing power are traditionally separated to guard against conflict of interest. The doctor tells you what you need and the independent pharmacist confirms it and provides you with options that suit your needs. If the doctor or the pharmacist were to prescribe and dispense singularly, they would inflate costs to benefit themselves over the patient. In this video we see what is akin to a dispenser also prescribing. The CEO of a chipmaker prescribing that $500k engineers should use $250k in tokens. Guess who stands to gain the most if this prescription gets roundly adopted. Always take with a pinch of salt, advice and predictions on the future of AI from people who need massive (needless) AI adoption for their companies to remain valuable.

Nigeria ranks number 4 in the just released global terrorism index. The country saw the largest increase in deaths, which were 237 higher in 2025. Tinubu is working, apparently!

Happiness is free. Worrying doesn't solve any problems. Choose to be happy.

@asemota Very true.

I think that while they hint that, there is a part of it that they don't also realize is that most entrepreneurship also has to do with dealing with people and people do not like change as much as they claim. I may not like a lot of things about him but Jeff Bezos is the one who seems to have cracked the essence of entrepreneurship by focusing on things that don't change with humans as everything else change. If you look at Steve Jobs, Zuck, and others, that is what they were inadvertently solving for. This is why I think that a lot of people are reading this whole AI era wrong. Humans will still be relevant and a lot of things about humans won't change.

This is one of the most fascinating things I have read in a while. Throws a spanner in a project we were about to start in a good way - "...the natural philosopher Robert Boyle articulated at the very dawn of modern science: “I shall not dare to think myself a true Naturalist till my skill can make my garden yield better herbs and flowers.”[2] A science should seek underlying truth, in other words, but it should also work." "If we are ever to build a true science of entrepreneurship, we need to understand why. There are three possibilities. First, maybe the theories are simply wrong. Second, maybe the theories are so obvious that formalizing them was pointless. Or third, once everybody uses the same theories, maybe they stop conferring an advantage. Strategy is about doing something different from your competitors, after all." cc: @perfexcellent @yoowai @kenju254 @EfosaOjomo colossus.com/article/we-hav…

@Symply_Tacha He's doing it because this is what the people want. He can only respond to that demand not attempt to supply something that's not in demand.

you’re one of the very few Nigerian politicians who built real wealth outside politics… You’ve run successful businesses both within and outside Nigeria, so i mean you understand the reality of building and sustaining a business far better than most people, including MySELF. And tHats why this kind of initiative is honestly hard to process esp. coming from you.. From someone else, it might pass. But from you sIR? it feels rather disappointing cause it comes across almost like “vote-buying” even tho that may not be the intention. ₦100,000 to 5,000 people may sound impactful on the surface, but when you really think about it, what kind of businesses can that realistically build? How many more pure water, Ewedu &pepper sellers, or even small roadside traders can that community absorb? These are already saturated spaces, and most of them don’t even lead to long-term sustainability or lift people out of poverty. If the real goal is empowerment, then it has to be sustainable. Imagine channeling that same ₦500 million into 10–20 already existing, viable businesses within your constituency. Businesses that are working, that just need capital to scale.. With your experience, you can identify and support them properly. Those businesses grow. They hire more people. Even if each employs just 5 additional staff, that’s over 100 people earning steady monthly income, not a one-off ₦100,000 And that’s how you move people out of poverty.. And support long-term.. and as those businesses strives, the impact multiplies over years. Sir, you understand this better than MOST. That’s why this approach feels surprising. Because this isn’t just about sharing money, it’s about creating SYSTEMS that LAST. with your level of exposure and business expertise, you have the opportunity to build something far more sustainable and TRANSFORMATIONAL than this.

@bellosaleh @sultan_ofsokoto @officialABAT What did the north use its loud political voice to achieve? The answer is why the north gets boots over books.

A video that has recently gone viral alleges that the @sultan_ofsokoto recently met with President @officialABAT and asked a simple question: If Nigeria needs a U.S. military base… why must it be in the North? Now hold that thought. Because a day or so later, Education Minster, @DrTunjiAlausa, on a UK trip with the President, is announcing below a partnership between his ministry, @NigEducation, and Coventry University to award UK degrees… in Nigeria. Location? Alaro, Lekki. Lagos. So let’s get this straight: One region gets foreign universities. Another gets proposed foreign military bases. Opportunity vs occupation. Books vs boots. Degrees vs drones. And no, this isn’t about Coventry University. That debate can wait. This is about a pattern. A pattern where development flows in one direction… And strategic burdens are shipped to another. Where Lagos gets foreign universities. The North gets foreign military bases. Coincidence? Maybe. But patterns, when repeated often enough, stop being accidents. They become policy. And the real tragedy? Other #Nigerian regions are too busy with petty politics to notice. And #Arewa, once the loudest political voice in the room, now watches in silence. Compromised. Muted. Managed. Docile. Absent. #AllahGaMuGareka

@SemudaraAbayomi @LooseTalkGiants How so? Most impressions on a secondary platform would never have gone to the primary platform anyway.

@docneto @LooseTalkGiants It’s lost ad revenue

Haven't looked at the numbers but I suspect that clip sharing on secondary platforms by others is a net positive for creators. Think of it as a free ad for your channel. For example, I got converted to @LooseTalkGiants after I saw a clip of their MI episode on here. If Korty's Asake clip didn't make it on here, I would never have even known it existed. The current clips are teasers that encourage me to go to her channel.

@ayosogunro @femilonge A win is a win in their books, ceremonial or not, sadly.

Charles is doing a for-show ceremony as the ceremonial monarch he is. These ones from Aso Rock media centre are calling it historic and policy influencing as if this shifts anything. The people running UK policies answer to the British public and not the monarchy.

I think even if the whole thing is shared, it's reaching an audience that would never have bothered seeking out the creator in the first instance. Done intermittently , it could still be a net positive. The problem arises only when it's consistent sharing from a singular account. That becomes impersonation of sort.

@docneto @LooseTalkGiants Clip sharing is okay. But some people lift the entire episode and share on here, that’s not fine. It defeats the purpose of clipping, which is to get people to the original source.
