#ALERT: Al-Shabaab Releases Video of Kenyan UN Worker Held in Somalia, Following Earlier Video of Ukrainian UN Pilot The Kenyan national, who is in Al-Shabaab custody, was serving as a member of an aero-medical evacuation team with the United Nations Mission in Somalia when he was captured in January 2024. He was taken hostage after the UN helicopter he was flying made an emergency landing due to a technical malfunction near Xiindheere District in the Galgaduud region. In the video, he appeals directly to Kenyan President William Ruto and United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, urging them to take steps to secure his release. He also calls on the Kenyan public to show solidarity and advocate for his freedom. The video was circulated via social media platforms associated with Al-Shabaab militants. As of now, neither the United Nations nor Kenyan authorities have issued a public statement regarding the video or the status of the captive.

@GoogleAI @Google these waitlists are getting out of hand! I need to get on a waitlist to bump up the version of a product I am already using?

Hey @claudeai, when I hit my weekly token limits when on pro or max package, can it at least drop to privileges same as 'free' the account? I am always having to wait 3 days with absolutely zero privileges.

William Achuchi@Dev_Williee·
A Computer Science degree is not meant to teach you HTML, CSS, or how to write React components—these are things an average 14-year-old can learn from YouTube or a coding bootcamp. You didn’t score an A to be taught HTML or React. The purpose of a CS degree is to introduce students to the fundamental principles of computing, algorithms, data structures, and programming paradigms, often through languages like C or C++. These languages enforce an understanding of memory management, efficiency, and problem-solving—skills that apply universally across all programming disciplines. Universities are not training grounds for specific frameworks or tools that change every few years; they are meant to shape problem-solvers who can adapt to any technology. If you went to university expecting to be taught React or Vue, you misunderstood the purpose of a CS degree. Those are things you pick up along the way, but the real value of your education is in mastering the science behind computing.

Kenyan universities should revise their curriculum especially tech courses! KCA University still offers Visual Basic as a compulsory Unit.

He was the worst President in history. And when he got voted out, he tried to stage a coup. Then he stole national secrets and sold the ones he didn't store in the bathroom. He was convicted of fraud, found liable of sexual assault and convicted of 34 felonies. He is half a billion dollars in debt, owned by God only knows who, and the biggest national security risk the nation has ever had. But at least he's not a Black woman.
