We just hosted Build With AI Ibadan 2026 II at @AbitHub 🎉
Close to 30 developers, designers & builders showed up on a Saturday morning to learn Google AI — Gemini, Gemma & Vertex AI.
This is what we built Abit Hub for. More coming. 🚀

If you feel lost, build something.
A business. Your body. A skill set. Anything that gives you a reason to learn and focus.
Don't worry about choosing the right thing. Don't think about how difficult it will be.
Just start moving forward and you'll find a path that feels right
The most dangerous form of laziness is performative productivity. Notes, tabs, highlights, summaries, plans. A whole pile of activity arranged to avoid direct contact with the work.
New AI Certification exams are now in beta.
Build real‑world AI & agentic skills from fundamentals to enterprise‑ready solutions:
🔗 AI‑901 – Implement AI solutions using Microsoft Foundry. msft.it/6017vDw7h
🔗 AI‑103 – Build scalable AI apps & agents on Azure. msft.it/6019vDwCB
🔗 AB‑620 – Design enterprise‑ready agents in Copilot Studio. msft.it/6010vDwC8
The greatest trait you can acquire is to work with tremendous intensity on things that matter to you, and more importantly, be strangely unbothered when those things don't work out.
In this week's video we are building a Full End-to-End ETL Pipeline in @databricks!
This project pulls together everything we've been learning in the past few weeks - data ingestion, building ETL pipelines, and job orchestration.

After advising 50+ consumer companies over the last year, the one thing that separates those who can execute and those who can't:
Having a full-time designer in the room at all times
I've met with countless companies that have raised millions—and even one that has raised billions—that do not even have a designer on payroll.
This makes product development broken:
1/ You simply cannot have constructive conversations about ideas without visualizing them in real-time
2/ Your experiments will frequently have inconclusive results because users cannot discover features or they misunderstand how they work
3/ There is no one who can galvanize the team with a vision of what the product could look and feel like
And to be abundantly clear: I'm not referring to visual UI or graphics. I'm talking about someone who can think through the fundamental building blocks of product comprehension—like navigation, interaction and copywriting—and is technically savvy enough to visualize those components in high resolution.
There can certainly be exceptions to not having a designer, like where the CEO is an exceptional visual thinker, but that does not scale beyond a small team.
At the end of day, products live and die in the pixels: it's what the users see and tap. And without someone shepherding that process, you are effectively wandering the desert blind.
Ambitious people are my type. I can’t even hide it, once you start talking about doing impossible work, the kind of talk that inspires greatness, you have my allegiance till the wheels fall off.
We may fail (woefully) but we will never be guilty of not trying.
