Although Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livaković saved the initial effort, the kick was retaken…

When only 14 out of 100 registered voters show up, democracy is on life support. When a citizen’s voter data leaks from inside INEC, the system bleeds. With Ekiti, Osun and 2027 looming, the question is brutal: Has INEC become the biggest threat to Nigeria’s elections? The bottom line is that INEC isn’t protecting voters. It’s pushing them out. The law says registration must be continuous. Yet INEC shut it down six months before the 2023 polls, forcing a court battle just to add 31 days. Result: millions begged to vote but couldn’t. This time, the same six-month blackout is…

The new AI tooling, Builderbot, is able to execute over 200,000 operations per day and merges approximately 1,500 pull requests per week, said the company. “The best way to think about Builderbot is as the missing layer between AI coding tools and how engineering actually works at scale,” said Brad Axen, head of AI capabilities at Block. “What used to take months now takes days,” the company added.
