I completely agree with this speech.
great idea is worth no more than 5% of the final success. The remaining 95% comes down to two things, timing and execution.

Timing is everything. We’ve all seen incredibly simple ideas turn into million-dollar businesses not because the concept was revolutionary, but because the timing was perfect and/or the execution was relentless. Great execution can make an average idea shine, while poor execution can kill even the best one.

What fascinates me most is how universal ideas really are.

Almost every time a friend excitedly approaches me with “a new idea,” I’ve already thought about it, or know someone monetion similar idea. sometimes years earlier. If you’ve ever been at AASTU, you probably remember how many developers independently came up with the same concept …”building a campus delivery app” for cafes like K. K. It wasn’t one person’s stroke of genius it was something many of us had imagined.

Over time, I’ve come to believe that true “invention” is almost extinct in recent decades. What we call innovation today is usually just intelligent recombination connecting existing pieces in smarter, faster, or more convenient ways. I hope you know this qoute “If you want to reinvent the apple, you’d first have to create the entire universe.”

It’s also amusing how some people still try to hide their ideas, as if secrecy alone could protect them.

So the next time you get excited about a startup or product idea, remember this
Someone, somewhere, has probably already thought of it.

The real question you should ask yourself isn’t “Is this idea original?” but
“Why am I the one who can actually make this successful?”

That single shift in mindset changes everything.

Dagmawi Bedilu is one of the thoughtful people I know. In this video, he discusses "Game Thinking," the startup ecosystem, and the education system in Ethiopia. It is definitely worth watching!

Anthropic accidentally leaked Claude Code's source code 😮

What happened:
On March 31, 2026, they released version 2.1.88 of the https://t.me/anthropic-ai/claude-code npm package. It included a large source map file ( http://cli.js.map/ ~60MB) that wasn't supposed to be there. This map pointed to a zip archive with the full unobfuscated TypeScript source.

What was exposed:
- Nearly 2,000 files
- Over 512,000 lines of code
- The entire CLI/agent architecture, tool-calling, streaming, telemetry, internal feature flags, and hints at unreleased features (like planning modes, undercover/anti-distillation tricks, etc.)

What was NOT exposed:
- Core Claude model weights
- Training data
- Any customer data or credentials

Anthropic confirmed it was human error in the build/packaging process (not a hack). They pulled the package and are adding safeguards. The code has already been mirrored widely on GitHub.

A wake-up call for release processes in fast-moving AI teams. The "harness" around the model is now public interesting times for agent devs!

Github is actively scanning and taking down recently created repositories of leaked source code.

A list of countries that have developed LLM-scale models trained from scratch, from initial pre-training on large datasets to a final usable stage (publicly released, privately deployed, or government-backed). These models are trained independently and are not based on fine-tuning existing foreign models.

No LLM models built in Africa but there are some Initiatives

Just saw the news, OpenAI shut down the Sora app today, only six months after the massive hype of its launch.

The root cause of this massive failure seems to be copyright issues, the "ultimate killer" in this industry. After a wave of complaints from Hollywood and various rights holders, OpenAI tightened its content filters to avoid lawsuits, which completely frustrated users. Turns out the hype only lasted about a month before the reality set in.

Before AI. Before agents that generate entire projects in seconds.
There were just three files
This is where it all began.

Dagmawi Babi's Testimony | አልተውህም
• http://youtu.be/BjF84Y9CH_Y

Back in December I had a huge honor of being on Halak Podcast from https://t.me/aastuecsf. This podcast made me look back at my university life and how God turned everything around.

I'm so grateful to be on Halak Podcast cause I've always been a fan since the first episode and now I somehow appeared there, which's God being so kind to me.

Fikir, the host, is an amazing friend of mine. I call us "Prayer Friends" cause when one of us get weak we appear out of the blue and request a prayer and it has always worked. I'm very glad she was the host for this episode.

Because we were friends, the conversation got very personal and long, addressing things we personally were aware of. This's part 1, with part 2 coming soon. It was a really amazing time. Hope you like it!

Thank you 💙
