BIG LENS

It seems counterintuitive, but by not actively selling or pushing yourself, you actually put yourself out there. I’ll explain. Recruiters, especially in tech, see through the bullshit. They are also very experienced. If you have substance, it does not stay hidden for long. Focus on what matters the most. Build non-trivial side projects, and most importantly have a clear career plan and focus. It is true that it’s difficult to get a job in tech, but imagine you’ve deliberately spent the last 5 or 6 years exclusively optimising for a career in e-commerce or fintech. Any interview for those roles or adjacent roles will be a walk in the park. And on visibility, it should be subtle. You don’t want to be the next LinkedIn banger boy. A lot of people ignore the important things like actually optimising their LinkedIn profile by investing time into the keywords in their header, a well written summary, endorsements of their skills and getting their CTO or manager to write a recommendation. They focus on writing posts that drive traffic without corresponding impact on their career. This is fine if you want to become a tech influencer. Pay attention and observe the people who have the roles you wish you had. Are they trying to be popular? What’s their LinkedIn activity like? It’s almost nonexistent. A few congratulatory comments or likes here and there, and that’s all. For devs, three things are like the flashpoints: your GitHub profile, LinkedIn page and an optional website or portfolio. This is what a recruiter looks at before reaching out to you. The 101 public repos with a project like Todo app, no portfolio project with actual users, sparse LinkedIn page, etc, does not lead a recruiter to your DM. Hold yourself to the highest professional standards you can think of. Something as simple as a proper profile picture on LinkedIn is more important than 30k followers on X. You must understand and define your audience.

800+ passing tests. Apache 2.0. Runs Qwen2.5-0.5B fully offline on a Pi 4. Skill sandbox via sys.meta_path restrictions. Community skills: Ed25519 signed (next implementation). First deployments: HVAC gas detection + energy monitoring in Lagos. github.com/ori-platform/o…

I designed for what I call the world's majority condition. Unreliable power. Patchy internet. $55 hardware. Most AI safety frameworks assume server-grade hardware and constant cloud access. That's not Lagos. It's also not most of the world.

built the Physical Actuation Trust framework.Four tiers. Every action declared upfront in YAML: A - agent sends a reasoned alert. Autonomous. B - reversible physical action. Tells you after. C - proposes something hard. WhatsApp. Waits for YES. D - deterministic rule fire

I started by looking at existing IoT platforms. They all do the same thing: sensor → threshold → alert → human That's a dashboard, not an agent. I needed an LLM to reason and control physical relays, but I couldn't risk it hallucinating and shutting down the wrong breaker.

Late last year, my apartment’s energy meter kept tripping whenever I worked. I spent absurd amounts fixing it. I wanted a system that could read, reason, and act before failure. So I built one, now open source. 🔗 github.com/ori-platform/o…

That’s why we built @school_baseng. SchoolBase helps schools manage student performance, attendance, fees, teachers, and overall administration while giving parents real-time insight into their child's progress. SchoolBase is currently in private beta with pilot users and launching publicly by February. I should add that we genuinely advise parents to attend their kid's open day as well PTA meetings.

@Abu_Mikey @school_baseng The attendance tracking, performance visibility, and fee records together give parents real clarity. Knowing if my child was in school, how they’re doing, and what’s outstanding in one place is very helpful. @IfeDada2 the app you suggested is already in existence. Launching lo ku

proud of this one. we just bridged the @moodniko_ API with a powerful @mastra agent and gemini. the result? a stateful, mood-aware AI that remembers your context and delivers spot-on content recs. the we deployed it as a co-worker on telex from data to a talking AI.

and it was a game changer. mastra's tooling and memory made the integration seamless. the agent taps directly into our mood-content mappings, making the whole experience feeling genuinely intelligent. the perfect case study of a specialized API powering a general-purpose agent

big milestone unlocked. moodniko is now smarter than ever. we've integrated with an ai agent built on @mastra , transforming our API into a conversational co-worker that understands your mood and fetches perfect recommendations your empathetic content companion is now here.

Concurrency is the ability of a system to manage multiple tasks at the once, even if they are not executing simultaneously. The sys runs slices of tasks one after. It switches between tasks so quickly, it seems they’re running at same time. This is often called context switching.

@KharayKrayKray we should have twitter for maas o😂

@KharayKrayKray maas geng get innnn

A fallback method is a backup function or alternative procedure that's used by a program when the primary method fails, is unavailable, or doesn't produce the desired result.

yo nest is the best. i love everything about it. you can create a doc file in a folder in each modules then import it on the controller. that way, you can have cleaner controller plus detailed schema. nice job boss.

@KharayKrayKray you are wild don't worry 😂

Data devaluation is a cybersecurity strategy that reduces the value of an organization's data to make it less attractive to attackers and useless or not as useful in the event of a successful breach. It’s been said to be one of the best defense mechanisms in modern systems.

@poly4concept the snitch here is the backend guy. he's supposed to understand and praise you more.

😂I raise you DevOps one time after sprint demo, designer was praising FE for pixel perfect work, frontend thanking BE for amazing api doc, BE praising FE and designer say it was nice working with them. I was like guys "I'll put off the prod env" as nobody remember infra 😂
