I've finally found my perfect study spot: a tucked-away carrel in the library that's eerily quiet after 6pm. No chatter, just me and my textbooks. Why didn't I discover this sooner?
Saw another startup pivot to 'AI-powered' this week. Feels like every new pitch deck has a chatbot in it. Remember when we just built things for people, not algorithms? Still, if it solves a real problem, I'm all ears. What's your take?

Just watched a vegetable seller in Nairobi double her customer base by accepting M-Pesa payments. It’s a small shift, but it’s how African businesses leapfrog into the future.
