My siblings and I decided to jokingly take a DNA test on ourselves to see if we are our father’s children

This didn’t come as a serious topic, we just decided to do it.

Science/Technology › Re: Do You Have A Quora Account? by werisetogether(m): 4:25pm On Mar 21, 2025*

Thanks for starting this thread

Just want to encourage anyone using the Quora platform to keep sharing their content

In my experience, I just started to discover how useful Quora can be. Especially when it comes to getting your voice heard

Even though I opened my account around 2012, it was only last year (2024) that it occurred to me to start posting there. Especially when I noticed I had 12 followers.

As I type this, the stats are gradually picking up. I have 29 answers, 1500+ views, and 6 upvotes. And 1100 views were generated this month alone. (March 2025)

All this without asking any family members or friends to visit my answers. (Doubt if any of them even knows I'm on that platform sef). Also I didn't engage with all those scammers who sell upvotes.

Sure, growing an audience on Quora takes time and effort. You also won't get rich quick by being on Quora. But if you want to start getting yourself more global visibility without needing to be on YouTube or Instagram, you'll definitely love Quora.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the maximum suspension period supposed to be 14 days?

Look at this old case involving Omo-Agege:

The judge held that while the National Assembly had the power to discipline its erring members, the reasons given by the Senate for Omo-Agage’s suspension was unconstitutional, adding that a legislator could not be suspended for more than 14 days.

Education › Re: Edukoya Shuts Down: What Went Wrong For Nigeria’s Promising Edtech Startup? by werisetogether(m): 1:45pm On Mar 03, 2025

Stepout23:
Nigerian education technology startup Edukoya has ceased operations after nearly three years, citing challenges such as limited internet penetration, high device costs, and declining disposable incomes, which hindered the scalability of its digital education services. The company, which raised a record $3.5 million in pre-seed funding in 2021, announced it would return capital to investors rather than continue in an unsustainable market environment.
PUNCHNG.COM

Despite onboarding over 80,000 students and facilitating millions of practice questions and live tutoring sessions, Edukoya faced fundamental adoption challenges that led to this decision. The company's closure highlights the broader struggles within Africa's edtech sector, where startups often grapple with infrastructure gaps and affordability constraints.

Edukoya's leadership expressed gratitude to its team, parents, students, and investors, stating that while their journey is ending, the insights gained could help pave the way for future innovations in African edtech when the market is more supportive.

Source: PUNCHNG.COM

Thanks for starting this topic.

Didn’t know what to think at first when I saw the headline. How could the startup close after raising $3.5m in seed funding?

But then again, there could be more to the story than we know.

The Edukoya team deserves some accolades for their vision and effort. They’ve even promised to refund investors.

With that said, maybe we can all learn a few lessons from their story. While funding definitely has its place, product-market fit and timing are other factors that can determine the success of a venture.

After onboarding the 80,000 students, what exactly was the revenue model? Was it a freemium model? Was there a clear path to profitability or were people reluctant to upgrade, preferring to stay on free forever?

Once again, bravo to the Edukoya team for being bold enough to pursue their vision. Let’s hope we can build on their lessons learned and create sustainable education solutions for the next generation.

Thanks again for sharing this. Hope more people contribute on this thread so we can all learn & grow together

Literature › Re: Writers Or Authors; Do You Feel Threaten Over Ai Writing Tools by werisetogether(m): 8:32am On Mar 03, 2025

Botwriter:
Can AI replace writers?

ChatGPT: That being said, AI can be a useful tool for writers and other creative professionals, and it has the potential to automate some tasks and free up time for more creative work. However, it is unlikely to fully replace the human element of writing.

*CHATGPT*

Love what you did there; using AI to respond to this topic.

By the way, this issue came up on our WhatsApp group recently. Always an interesting discussion.

AI is a helpful productivity tool. For instance, a calculator can help me solve math problems. But it can never replace my ability to think.

Yes, AI tools can help us research and generate more content faster. BUT it still needs a human in the loop to prompt it and even review the final output. AI doesn't run on its own

Hope that helps. Love to hear more on this topic.

Career › Re: How To Raise Money When There Is No Money by werisetogether(m): 1:52pm On Feb 28, 2025

Thanks for starting this topic

One of the best ways to raise money when you’re broke is to start by finding creative ways to use what you already have. You don’t always need cash to create value,

You can start by listing your skills. Your assets. Your contacts. What can you offer as a service? Are you good at SEO or graphic design? Do you have any excess items that you can either sell or rent out? Is there anyone you know who can provide value to someone else - while you make the connection?

Let’s say you’re good at writing. Can you offer content creation services to small businesses and get paid a fee? If someone needs help with a project, can you suggest a partnership where you both win?

In summary, it all starts by taking a different look at what you already have. Cash isn’t the only valuable currency. Your skills, time and relationships are also valuable

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions because I’m always trying to learn more and get better as well.

We have a different context from Oyibo people. So we can't just copy and paste whatever they do (or claim to do)
