Well this is it. Thanks! And I didn't even open DEV for a couple of days. Also, I'm not well right now.

But thanks for this one.

Posted a 5' short video that shows how to submit a prototype to the HackAVP, a local Hackathon I'm organizing here in New-Caledonia :

More about this Hackathon below :

@jess , articles will be sumbitted on DEV.to : do you think it would be possible to get some DEV.to stickers to make some buzz around DEV.to ?

I’ve passed a coding interview using my methods with an international company 😀😊 There’s nothing like being told that I’ve done very well at the end of an interview!

Waiting for the final interview now!

I completed a big major change in shipping the webrtc into the libray I was contributing in from the February. I also cracked a short freelance work based on what I did and have been sharing on the Dev.to community as well

Another good read for the week I published.

For me, that would be publishing an article I have been holding back for the past two months on AI and higher education in low and medium-income countries. The article is about why I think the answer to AI in universities isn't bans or surrendering as most higher ed institutions in the west have been going about it and why i think low and medium income countries might have a shot at getting AI in higher ed right and why they should. Link here.

Plus, I came across a paper from Professor Jason Potts that really influenced and enlightened me on university as a platform, its history, the business they are in and how technology augments it. So, that was informative and very insightful as well. Link here.

Also, I later found out MIT's Ad Hoc committee wrote a report on AI use in teaching, Learning and Research training, and that validated I wasn't thinking about AI in university the wrong way necessarily.

I call these wins cause they expanded my thinking about AI, universities and EdTech in my side quest of bringing my offline study app to life.

For context, I have been thinking about AI and Education alot lately. Especially following my experiment with Gemma 4 and building an AI study companion off of it that works without both an internet connection and AI subscription for low and medium income countries, I wrote about my experience on that for the Gemma 4 challenge. App build still ongoing though.
