Just shipped the MVP of CryptoMarket — a crypto portfolio tracker built from scratch with raw Python sockets, PostgreSQL, and vanilla JavaScript. It's simple, fast, and focused on real-time tracking and secure P2P trade flow. realcryptomarket.netlify.app

Linux Device Drivers is still one of the best reads if you want to understand how the kernel talks to hardware. You'll want some C and basic Unix syscall knowledge, but the examples make it easy to just go through and start learning.

• Restart your phone at least once a week. It improves speed and reduces random hanging. • Use WhatsApp “View Once” for sensitive documents instead of leaving permanent copies everywhere. • Price at least three shops before buying anything expensive. • If NEPA takes light often in your area, freeze water in bowls and bottles. It helps preserve food longer during outages. • For job hunting, dress slightly above the role you’re applying for. In Nigeria, appearance is sometimes treated like qualification. • Unplug appliances when not in use. It saves power and protects devices from sudden voltage spikes. • Buy foodstuff in bulk with friends or neighbors. It’s usually cheaper than buying retail. • Learn simple home repairs. Calling technicians for every little issue can drain money fast. • Never announce your full salary to extended family unless you enjoy becoming everybody’s emergency contact.

All my money has been invested into experiments with which I have made new discoveries enabling mankind to have a little easier life. - Nikola Tesla (1856-1943)

A mathematician at Bell Labs noticed that the scientists who won Nobel Prizes and the ones who never amounted to anything were equally smart, equally hardworking, and equally credentialed, and the only thing that separated them was a single question almost nobody is brave enough to ask themselves before they die. His name was Richard Hamming. He spent 30 years at Bell Labs, in the same building as John Tukey, Walter Brattain, and a long list of physicists who took home Nobel prizes for work they did down the hall from his office, including the legendary Claude Shannon. His invention of error-correcting codes made modern computing possible. He has won the Turing Award. And all the while he was creating his own legacy he was secretly doing a study on the people around him. The study was straightforward. 2 Teams. The legends and the lost. Same I.Q.s. Degrees same. Same desk hours. Same access to the world’s best resources. And yet, at the end of 40 years in their careers, one group had changed entire fields, and the other group could not be remembered by their own colleagues five years after retirement. He wanted to discover what the actual difference was. In March 1986, he stood before 200 researchers in a Bellcore auditorium and told them what he had seen. He said it all came down to one question. And hardly anyone he ever met was willing to ask it directly. He called it the Friday-afternoon ritual. He spent years blocking out his Friday afternoons and not doing anything productive with them every week. No experiments. No meetings. No deliverables. He called it Great Thoughts Time. He sat down with a notebook and asked himself a couple of questions in order. What are the most relevant problems in my discipline? And why I am not working on either of them.” Most weeks, the answer was the same, he said. For a week now he had marched confidently in a direction he did not think was the most important direction. He was a goer. He worked a bit. He was getting clean results that would publish in respected journals. ( And for five days straight he'd been lying to himself about whether any of it mattered. The reason almost nobody does this ritual is because the honest answer is unbearable. The thing is that if you sit down on a Friday afternoon and say out loud that you are not working on the most important problem in your field, now you have to do something about it. You have an immediate change in direction, or you have to keep lying to yourself every week from that point on. Most people choose the lie. In the short term it’s cheaper, but over a career it’s more expensive. Hamming took the ritual a step further in the Bell Labs cafeteria. He began approaching scientists he barely knew, asking them what they thought the most important problems in their field were. A week later he would ask them why they had not worked on these problems. Eventually people wouldn't have lunch with him. “I had to keep finding new tables,” he said. Nobody had a good answer for that, and being around someone who kept asking it made every meal feel like a performance review. The line that broke me is the line that most people skim over in the transcript. His words: If you do not work on an important problem you are unlikely to do important work. That’s not motivational line. It is a rational one. You cannot make a great result from a problem that does not matter. Input restricts the output. The choice of the problem is the ceiling of the career. The transcript has been freely available on the internet for almost 40 years. Stripe Press published the complete lectures as a book. Naval Ravikant quotes it all the time. It’s still given out to new hires at every serious engineering lab in Silicon Valley. Most people will not run the ritual this Friday. They will be busy. They always are.

Found a solid repo: Project Based Tutorials in C. Covers everything from computer architecture to game dev to OS internals, all through hands-on builds. Good entry point if you're learning the language and want something concrete to work toward.

C’est le but prix puskas 2026 Je veux rien savoir

A mother octopus lays her eggs, then stops eating. She slowly starves to death while she guards them, and by the time they hatch, she's already gone. Her babies float off into the ocean and will never meet her. An Oxford scientist named Tim Coulson thinks these animals could be the ones to take over after we're gone. He laid it out in a 2024 book, and the case holds up. An octopus has about 500 million brain cells, roughly the same as a dog. Two-thirds of them aren't even in its head. They're spread through the eight arms, so each arm can taste what it touches and move on its own. Octopuses open jars. They carry coconut shells across the seafloor to hide under later. They've squeezed out of sealed tanks in the dark and gotten away. No animal without a backbone comes close. But being smart has never been enough to build a city. Everything humans built runs on one trick: each generation starts where the last one left off. A kid today learns in school what took people thousands of years to work out, and inherits all of it for free. An octopus inherits nothing. Its mother died before it hatched, so there's no one to copy and nothing left over from the octopus that came before. So every octopus has to figure out the whole world by itself, starting from zero. And they're good at it, weirdly good. Then a year or two later they die and take everything they learned with them. Peter Godfrey-Smith, a philosopher who spent years diving with octopuses for his book Other Minds, points out that they pass almost nothing on to their young. The cleverest animal in the sea wipes its memory clean every generation and starts over. Coulson said it could take hundreds of thousands of years, maybe millions, and he's right that the raw ability is already there. The brain is built, and the body can crack almost any puzzle you hand it. The only thing missing is a second generation that remembers the first.

Wayne Rooney called this the most beautiful goal in Premier League history 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Do you agree? 👀

@ScyanYT @MattHMajn "The writer should never write a script again" Can you f**ki*g do anything Jeez every Body criticising how shows end as if theycan do better

@MattHMajn Yes but im talking show should have focused on real threat and bringing this idea up more Not just homlander died its all good now

Homelander was never truly the villain of The Boys. He was abused, tortured from birth, hurt non stop psychologically manipulated his brain wired in a way to be obedient since birth. He was a victim to a corporation trying to make the ultimate money making weapon. He was product of evil people while its said in the show itself, he never really wanted to be the best, the strongest. It was forced on him If he got tortured his entire life to be the best, be the most loved? Do u really expect him not to act the way he did? The boys finale trying to focus on humiliating him was stupid. All that character development of talking about how homelander could have truly been a superman, if he was not abused his entire life Just so in the end no proper meaningful end happens to that part of his story The boys writers should never write a show ever again. They care more about making fun of people instead of writing an actual character I feel bas for Antony Starr. His insane performance deserved a proper writing❤️legendary acting, horrible writers ruining his masterpiece

@lorxell You people wil always have a negative things to say about how a show ended Can you even write a script?

Is there any show where the villain actually won? I’m tired of villains losing to the plot.

Like For Messi. Retweet for Cristiano

I hope you got your answer

@UTDRussell @Ameik8 First this is not Carrick first stint Carrick is good n better than amorim regardless of Carrick result

@Ameik8 This was during afcon You’re aware rii

Me: “I don’t expect Ruben Amorim to win the Premier League.” You: “Fair.” Me: “I expect him to secure Champions League football.” You: “Same.” Amorim gets sacked Michael Carrick becomes interim manager Me: “Carrick’s objective is top four since Amorim was only 3 points off it.” You: “If he doesn’t finish top four, it’s Amorim’s fault.” Carrick starts doing well Me: “Carrick is meeting his objective.” You: “If United had sacked Amorim earlier, Carrick would’ve won the league!” Carrick gets the permanent job Me: “So now that he’s starting fresh with no Amorim excuses… should we expect him to win the Premier League?” You: “😡😡 ARE YOU EVEN A UNITED FAN?? WHY DO YOU HATE CARRICK??” Me: “I literally just asked a question” 🤷🏽‍♂️
