I came here to rant, though the title may sound like a blog of "a day in the life of a dev at meta", but this is real life. No kombucha, no $4K standing desk, no ping pong table in the hallway. This is Nigeria. Power just blinked twice. I held my head in utter disbelief, all I did was try to star...

I stared blankly at my screen in utter disbelief for 5 minutes, like I just heard I broke a bottle of champagne at Quillox. The jokes write themselves in indignation, It's a sore for eyes. These Bits and Pieces can’t be coupled by the far-sighted. Of course they can’t. These stories of code, tol...

Let’s talk about something uncomfortably precise. Something most of us scroll past and chuckle nervously at on Twitter, then go back to our chaotic Tinder date or solo wine night.Before we talk about psyops and manipulation, let’s address the elephant in the group chat. A lot of what men are sayi...

It’s not a sudden stroke of genius.It’s slow, painful attrition.
I'm watching users churn before they even sign up. Not just on my app, everywhere. Look around. People want *frictionless access* to everything, and rightfully so. If you’ve ever watched someone try to sign up for a course using th...

Riddle me this "if there was a live naked wire and a baby got close to it and grabbed it", do you think electricity would be like "nahhh it's a baby I won't shock it". The universe works with rules, in this case you touch a live wire and you get shocked, you've met all conditions for electrocutio...

Here’s the kicker: you think you’re ‘engaged’ when you’re doom-scrolling through your feed at 2 a.m.? News flash: that’s not focused attention—that’s "rote activity". William James, the 19th-century brainiac, mapped it out: real engagement—where you’re challenged and actually flexing those neuron...

My last “breakup” was with AI-generated boilerplate—autocomplete that promises to solve your problems but leaves you copy-pasting code you barely understand.
I’m miserable, because somewhere along the way we stopped researching. We stopped thinking. We click “generate,” we paste, we ship. My hea...

Last time we played SMTP sorcery to conjure passwordless login—beautiful in theory, hell in practice. Every mail provider now demands a paid, registered domain; slip through, and your welcome email lands in Spam. So I ripped off the bandaid: back to email + password. Crazy? Absolutely. But the mi...

I’ll show you how we got from Ada Lovelace’s steam‑powered dreams to Copilot cranking out 25 percent of new code, why today’s AI “vibe coding” tutorials leave you hollow, and how to crush the learning curve by forging muscle memory through real projects with AI as your sidekick. We’ll u...

Long before silicon and 1's and 0's, philosophers mused about “automata” that moved of their own will—think 400 BCE mechanical pigeons built for Plato’s pals. Allegedly, those contraptions whispered the first promise of machines that could “decide” for themselves.In 1950, Alan Turing sidestepped ...

Passwords are so 2004. Forget the endless string of forgotten passwords and “Reset your password” emails. In this first installment of our “Bits & Pieces” series, we’re peeling back the curtain on how to build a truly seamless, production‑ready passwordless authentication flow—complete with m...
