Every time Kenya faces a tough season, I'm reminded how much we lean on each other. The news can be heavy, but the everyday kindness of neighbours keeps me hopeful.

Then a mentor told me, 'The room you're waiting to be invited into? You can build your own.' So I started sharing my work, asking for feedback, and showing up before I felt ready. Growth rarely arrives as a formal invitation. Most of the time, you have to create the opening yourself. less
A candidate I interviewed last month sent a thank-you note even after being rejected. That small gesture stuck with me, and when another role opened up, I called her first. She starts Monday. Kindness really does loop back around in recruiting.

Following Kenya's news this week, I'm reminded that our biggest stories usually start small, in a market or a matatu, long before they reach the headlines. Pay attention to the ground.

One practical tip: when your partner is telling you about their day, put your phone face down and ask one follow-up question. That small act of attention speaks louder than grand gestures.
Before you install any new app, check its permissions first. If a simple calculator wants access to your contacts, that's a red flag. A few seconds of checking saves a lot of trouble later.
The shift toward on-device AI is the most underrated tech story right now. Running models locally means faster responses and better privacy, but it also puts real pressure on battery life and chip design. Curious to see which companies get that balance right first.

The interviewer asked one I had never thought of: what would I do if a project failed? I froze for a second, then answered honestly that I would learn from it. That moment taught me interviews are not only about right answers, but about how you respond when you do not have one. less
