A woman I buy food from said she won't be opening today because her child is graduating. She closed her shop to attend it. That's her work and she sacrificed it for a day just to be with her daughter. Too many excuses in this comment section toward men not attending
Children’s end of session party, 97% present parents are mothers, 3% are fathers. Children will forever lean more towards their mothers 🤦🏽♂️😭
You’ll outperform 90% of people if you just show up.
The difference in views between Harvards Advanced Algorithms Lecture 1 and Lecture 2. Yikes.
She has been posting about the harm GMOs has been causing in African countries who adopted them earlier since 10 years ago. No agenda or picking sides. Her field. Continue listening to ndi "banana was created by humans" and "you eat agric foul but you don't want GMO" geniuses

3D printing + AI is about to make me go bonkers 🤣 Gonna sound like a crypto bro, but we are still early! Lol
The first time I came across 3D printing was over ~9 years ago at CcHUB in Yaba and I could not believe it! 🤯 Now, I'm exploring setting up a form of lab at home, getting my hands dirty and feeling a bit more like the Mechanic (IM3 reference). Loving it so far!

1. You can't always go back to college. If you drop out for more than a year or two, you'll be older than the other students when you return and it won't be the same experience. 2. The iron is always hot.

Tip for younger machinists out there: always prototype your CADs with wood on the CNC machine. Its cheaper and would help you understand the errors before making the metal parts.
