MMXXV
And Just Like That, A New Dawn Brings in the New Year.
Hello, ECXers…
I remember a mathematics topic requiring me to use the Roman alphabet to describe numbers. Please, am I in English or Maths class? Anyway, maybe you and I should’ve had less of that thought and focused on understanding the topic because now you’re struggling to understand what MMXXV is. It is 2025.
In the spirit of remembering things, I also remember when the Harmattan wind used to last till January. Scientists say climate change is negatively taking away our beloved December cold, leaving us with undeserved heat! Rest assured, even that won’t stop me from speaking with you. So, fasten your seatbelts and get on the ride with me.
Before I go on, I'd like to wish you a…
A brand new year is here and there's no better way to kick it off than with you. The festive season has come and gone, but the happy memories still remain. I hope you enjoyed yourself and most importantly, are you ready to go again this year?

In Other News
The advancements in artificial intelligence have gone beyond solving our assignment questions on chatGPT. 🤐
One AI sector is revolutionizing is the health sector through the integration of AI-powered tools into healthcare that provide faster and more accurate diagnosis of diseases. For example, recent advancements allow AI systems to detect toxic gases with remarkable precision, which could help in managing industrial and environmental health risks.
How do these advancements affect us? Apart from making our health better, students in tech, healthcare, or data analytics fields also have new avenues for research and boosting their career prospects.
Hack the Tech Life
Hacking the tech life doesn’t mean you need to be a programmer or a tech genius cracking codes like a typical computer-nerd. Rather it encompasses acquiring essential soft technical skills integral to today's world.
Do you know why? It's because the world is drifting towards a technology-inclined era where almost every small thing will be done with the use of tech, from the way we order food to how we learn, shop, work, and even socialise. Tech isn’t just influencing our lives—it’s taking over the little things we used to do manually and making them faster, smarter, and more efficient.
Here's a time management hack to assist you in your daily tech activities. It's known as the “Time Blocking Technique”:
It starts by scheduling your day in blocks.
Assign precise time slots to each task or category of tasks, and ensure also to include short breaks to recharge and prevent burnout.
Then stick to the plan like your life depends on it.
This ensures you stay focused and get the best from each day.
