But then again, suits and nice offices are not synonymous to good pay. The difference between the two pics might just be the effort at work and sense of satisfaction. In fact, the latter might more financially rewarding
Today, I made a milestone in my PhD journey when I successfully defended my dissertation proposal 📚🛰️. Much thanks to my advisor for guidance and funding and the committee as I move to the homestretch of grad school.
@Nyamisa_Chela
Good job. Let’s focus on a crowdsourced tallying center that we can compile presidential elections results by midnight. Much of rigging happens at tallying since only few media houses and IEBC does it. We can leave the voting system to IEBC

@Starlink
This is the biggest nonsense of the century. First satellite Internet is meant for remote areas where connection through mobile/fiber isn’t viable/possible. Secondly, Starlink’s business model is B2C not B2B. Lastly, Starlink have equally invested in infrastructure.
@KhalifKairo
Depends on which level are you talking about. It is a known fact that not all jobs require degree but don’t be fooled. At the back of research and innovation of these companies are PhDs in mathematics, physics, neuroscience etc. Technology is an implementation of laws of science.

You need to learn basic punctuation rules. You can’t be having trailing & missing commas & inappropriate use of articles. Some of your sentences are too long. Consider using short sentences.

@C_NyaKundiH
Satellites are used as back haul to reroute traffic to terrestrial systems (microwave radio and fiber). Having a complete satellite based network requires full implementation of optical inter satellite links that is yet to be fully adopted by any network operator

Someone who’s yet to figure out whether he’s a man or a woman wants us to believe he’s digitally literate in 2001 yet still regurgitates government’s propaganda, paraphrases Ruto’s tweets and lies laced with half truths for a living. Watu sio wajinga buana!
Don’t relent. Close sources tells me that the tweets from the influential accounts and even the spaces are compromised. Don’t fear them. Remember this revolution has no leader. Mr. Ruto must go. Let’s take one for God and Country! 🇰🇪

2. His education on leadership has been key to his music, thought process and spreading his tentacles in

They’re toying with the idea of forcing SNOs to provide their services through MNOs(Safaricom, Airtel etc). That way, they can control the price and shut it down whenever the gov asks them. They’ve ignored the fact that Starlink’s business model is B2B same as upcoming Kuiper

1. “Iradinge ti luongi ni James nadi”
2. “Why Octopus and not ngenge or omena”?
3. “Tinde iwacho Kiswahili, ilokri Mohammed, ijakuo donge. Aya kwala”
Wrong. Ogola simply narrates the reality of Luo culture. Feminism & Patriarchy is a colonial construct that only existed in the old feudal western world. Eg. Luo elder would consult a wife (wuon par) before making a decision. Among Nguni of Mozambique the trend was the same

So refreshing to see bloodless military coups with full civilian support in former French colonies. The sooner the French realizes it’s not welcomed in Africa, the better for them and their stooges.
