My estimate is that over 90% of jobs on LinkedIn are not actual.
1. The companies want to grow their talent pool in case they need to hire in future.

3. Managers post jobs to increase morale, especially when they…

The problem is not coding.
Code what? Netflix clones?
Omanyala is known for his sprinting, but so many sprinters sprint at night naked that no one knows of.
Omanyala sprints with a purpose.
We need to focus on coding/programming with a purpose.
The purpose comes from…
It is possible to make Kenya a global hub for software engineering.
It's obvious that we won't beat China and East Asian nations in cheap manufacturing.
But imagine if we had 1 million young people who can write code.
You are one of the million. Have a great coding week.
