That's not the forehead of a man that loses. What was Mobutu on?
President @PaulKagame , then rebel RPA leader, visiting Mobutu Sese Seko in Zairean (DRC) ruler’s Gbadolite resort in 1992. Rumour has it Mobutu later said Kagame was too fragile to beat Habyarimana's regime in Kigali. 5 years later RPA-backed forces kicked him too out of power in Kinshasa.

Memorization has an unfairly negative reputation. I recently spent a few hours memorizing the names of all the countries in the world and it's such a clear improvement in how well I can understand and reason about other topics. Memorization is scaffolding for more complex ideas
I'm not an intellectual my friend. When I don't like a text, I stop reading it. Even if everybody swears by it.
And Plato's republic will take me at least 50 years to finish. Thenks to YouTube for the speed boost.

Nilishasema hili, na lilipokelewa kwa hisia. Kama unaweza kutompa Mtanzania pesa, usimpe.
Kwenye saikolojia ya masoko kwa msingi wa demografia, Tanzania inawekwa kwenye tunachoita low-trust society. Na ni kwa sababu karibu kila mtu ni tapeli inherently. Kila mmoja anaangalia namna ya kumuibia mwenzake, na tumehalalisha kwasababu hatuchukuliani hatua na wala hatuwajibishani. Kila mtu mwizi, kila mtu tapeli.

AI may well be able to write massive software projects “from scratch”, but that almost certainly isn’t the fastest / highest performance / highest security / most token efficient way to do things. Good building blocks matter.
In addition to RL’ing the agents on final task loss, we should try to get them to regularize the building blocks as well. What would the standard library look like that makes the agents most effective?
It is likely at the limit that it turns out to be some alien organization of code, but given the existing human-bias in training, I bet that in the near term it would be lovely code that old programmers would appreciate.
I suspect the same could be said for mathematics, but that is out of my lane.

This is where outsiders read it wrong.
Ke & Tz have their drama here and there but it is for entertainment value and feelings.
They are the only 2 countries in EAC without a border dispute and the most cohesive joint commission.
Even NTBs are resolved amicably.
