Just finished a deep dive into the Go compiler 🔥 Turns out it does a lot more than you think to make your programs fast & safe. Here are 10 things the Go compiler does that might surprise you 🧵👇 Article: mideseniordev.hashnode.dev/10-things-the-…

@akinkunmi I wanted to pick it up though, let me know what your requirements are so I can push a PR.

@mideseniordev Not yet but very soon.

If you have a major idea you want to contribute to Avnac.design, please open an issue first or send me a DM before you start working on it. There are chances I am already be working on it or plan to. Also, please don't work on any backend features. I would feel bad to have to close your PR and waste your tokens. 🙏🏼

@sherifgjini Notion maybe

Name a tech company that has literally zero haters

@SokeyeA Prefer, Apple notes makes it super easy tbh. I use all three though. Including Notion as well.

What notes app do you prefer and why ? - Apple Notes - Google Keep - Obsidian

@akinkunmi Chief check out huggingface.co/briaai/RMBG-2.0 How are you handling multiple user requests to use the model? I asked yesterday if you were accepting contributions 😊

@mideseniordev birefnet-general-lite

Background removal is the single most requested feature for Avnac.design. I worked on this at midnight. I self-hosted a background removal model. The result is not as good as something you'd get on remove(dot)bg and it's significantly slower, the server also crashes because this is running on a small 48GB CPU. I used a smaller model that took less than 3 seconds average but the results were not very good. Anyway, it's live now, use it and let me know what results you get. I will work on improving it.

@markessien Kimi, DeepSeek, absolute power houses. And some of their models are open source. You can host and create your own apis for inference at a fraction of the cost of these American labs are offering.

I really cannot see how the American AI labs will beat the Chinese at coding. The chinese models are just as good right now, the harnesses like OpenCode are as good as Claude, and the Chinese ones are WAY cheaper.

@Zyyon_ @ossynoya Bro I've just been feeling disgusted at the sort of opinions I've been seeing.

@ossynoya Lol. These newcomers on Nigerian tech twitter wey get youthful exuberance. Dem funny die. I don't even like engaging in their debates. They act like they are the ones that built the whole ecosystem

Person say na when I handle a real world frontend project I’d know not to talk to frontend developers anyhow 😂😂😂 Switching and talking more about politics have made these new boys here think I do html and code with excel 😭😭😭

@thoniahilary 😊👌👌

@mideseniordev 🤣🤣🤣 I'm humbled

In my opinion, backend and frontend devs should be paid equally.

@KolikoThe1st @ossynoya Yes frontend has advance. I have built complex frontend applications. The backend typically has a lot more at stake that can affect a product or business.

@ossynoya lol When you finally look at code of a properly designed frontend system, you might change your stance. Keep working.

As a frontend developer. NO Wetin those backend guys they do, if you put body as a frontend fire go burn you. And I’m not talking about crud backend devs abeg.

@0xuste @ossynoya Lol, na dem be this.

@ossynoya Just shot yourself in the leg. Everything backend does comes down at CRUD at the end.

@madebykit Reading some of ya'll post just make me exhausted. Selah.

What's there in Jumia that you can't build? Y'all think vibecoding is just lovable for frontend? Have you try vibecoding with cursor/windsurf/antigravity? A lot of Nigerians are not that educated, they don't how far techs has gone, even though they're graduates/techies

I just completed a 10-weeks intensive bootcamp with Andela for AI Engineering. It was rigorous. Today I did both my behavioural and 3-hour live technical assessments. So proud of the effort I put in. 👌

@akinkunmi Yo chief, your project is open, but are you accepting contributions? I don't see any guide for submitting PRs on the repo.

I'm thinking of how to keep Avnac free and open-source while offering pro features like background removal and a high-quality template gallery. Don't really want to do subscriptions.

@smartnakamoura It's obvious a lot of Devs on Nigeria Twitter haven't built or scaled anything 😂. This is exactly why most can't actually land a SWE role. Make dem no go dey ship ewa 😂😂. If dem ask you distributed system questions now, you no go fit answer o.

Jumia in a week? Build it. Then let me send 50,000 users to it on a Friday evening. We'll talk after.

@akinkunmi Where so you even want to start from 😂?

AI dey give una mouth for this app. 😂 You want to build Jumia in 2 weeks. 😂😂😂

@akinkunmi I see why a lot of software devs from Nigeria can't crack top global SWE roles 😂. AI will really displace most of ya'll for real. Cos if you think Jumia is build-able in 2 weeks, you most likely have no idea what scale means.

@akinkunmi Nigeria tech twitter has to be the most delusional community ever. Most of ya'll haven't built things or being around people that do and it shows. Most of you don't have an idea of what scale really means. There's just too many moving parts. Ya'll notice how OGs are quiet

If you can build Jumia in 2 weeks, I'll pay for your next Codex Plus/Pro subscription. Remember, your goal is to build Jumia, not an e-commerce website. So you have to build the user-facing platform, ad system, dispute resolution, delivery system, seller hub, affiliate platform, and all the systems that work together to make Jumia Jumia. You have till 14th May.
