My family assumes my job isn't serious, and I am free at random times in the day to do chores.
Fully remote people .. are there any downsides to you working from home full-time ?

I'm so happy to see what's going on all over the country
Gen Z is currently joining the workforce, starting life. Bad governance will set us back almost 10-15 years. We can't all move abroad for greener pastures, so we will fight for a better Kenya

"Writing tests can be a pain but they are important in writing clean code" ~
@wayne_gakuo
And the love-hate relationship between developers and writing tests continues.
Let's talk spaghetti code!
One thing about code; you can always optimize it for efficiency.
Writing clean and readable code is a skill required by developer looking to build scalable products
Join us tomorrow at 8PM as we hear more from
@wayne_gakuo
and hosted by

The vivid descriptions and command of language make it hard to put a book down. Learnt a ton of new words from them.
Also, can we drop the suffering and trauma trope in marriage/relationships?

Some key lessons to anyone keen on getting into the startup world.
@SamProgramiz
mentioned the need to grow thick skin as you start out because you cannot sell your dream to everyone. Not everyone will see it from your point of view at first and that shouldn't stop you.
Yesterday,
@M_ayienga
and
@akwando_Fred
had a sit down with
@SamProgramiz
, co-founder
@LifePlanner_co
and the maddest Java and Kotlin developer in the 254. Juu weekends are 4 podcasts and chill, look out for that episode only on

You can get one faster by uploading your app on Apple Appstore using the organization process. They provide you a D.U.N.S number within 5 working days for free. You can use the same number on Google Playstore application process.
Google play store requires a D-U-N-S number for a new organisation account.
What's the process for getting one?
Kenya doesn't seem to be on the list.

Dearest Tyler Perry, not all black women are angry and have a bad atitude. Also, not all of them are miserable in their relationships with men who are dependent on them. We would love a change of script now.

The main theme to most African startups is to solve problems we experience every day in the society.
requires you to grow those big balls and do it already!
The idea you are sitting on, thinking it has no real potential, will work if you fan it with the fire of hard work and persistence.
People are founding startups on the back of very simple solutions to everyday problems.
