🚨 URGENT: An Ethiopian Dev is #1 in the World - We Need to Hold the Line! 🇪🇹

A 24-year-old solo developer from Addis Ababa just beat 10,000 global teams to reach the finals of the Amazon (AWS) AIdeas Challenge.
He built Ivy an offline-capable AI tutor for Ethiopian students on $80 Android phones.
Right now, Ivy is Ranked #1 Globally. But a massive corporate team from India is only 29 votes behind, mobilizing their universities to overtake us tonight.
We cannot let Ethiopia lose this. The US has Silicon Valley. India has Bangalore. Ivy has us.

Drunk, hungry and tired asf gnyt

The biggest change I made regarding learning is starting with questions preferably (3–10 questions) when learning about a topic.

For example: what is it, why is it important, and how does it work are the most common questions I ask for almost every concept I learn, with more depending on the context.

This has absolutely been a game changer for me because before this, I would just dive into a subject like jumping into a skydive unprepared and sometimes with no parachute (analogy is still work in progress). Anyway, now I have structure, and it feels far less overwhelming.

Also, knowing the questions are limited for the session makes me realize it is going to end, which is nice.

Anyways, I found this especially helpful in a space where learning is not optimized for an exam or structured by an institution.

Finally got a smothered mate 🥹🥹 he took woth the rook but idc it's a smother !!
