A Medium-Length Rant Against Fake Accents.

–August 28, 2011–Gboyega Otolorin–Lagos–
As a person, I have always despised faking. Airs, affectations, pretending to what you're not, trying to impress people. It irritates me. I'm a firm believer in being you. Be yourself. If people like it, fine. If they don't, well, who cares? Why try to please capricious humans anyway? People don't really know what they want, that's the truth. That's why they can love you today and hate you tomorrow. Or vice versa.
Now, I'm not making a case for bad behaviour. I'm not saying go out and be nasty and be horrible to people and then, when you're called out, you say 'But that's who I am. I can't change the way I behave just to please you.' No. That's not the kind of thing I'm talking about. Common courtesy and manners are essential. Considering and respecting the feelings of others before taking action is a virtue we all must cultivate. No, the kind of thing I'm talking about is acting. Acting superior. When you start performing for people. When you start behaving in a certain way, trying to project some kind of elevated status. When you start trying to 'oppress'. That's what I'm talking about.
Ok. What is the point of this piece? It's simple. I want to talk about something that typifies the kind of behaviour mentioned above, something that is rampant now in Nigeria, especially in Lagos: Fake Accents.
We've all heard foreign accents. American accents, British accents, orisirisi accents; everybody on the Island has one these days. Just enter an office on Ajose Adeogun and you hear things like 'Ohmigod! Tope, is that yeou? I haven't seen you in ay-jes! How you doing?' And Tope replies, 'Oh, I'm foine. Hawee yeou?'
In Lagos of 2011, foreign accents are everywhere. You can't escape them. We hear them on TV, on the radio, at school, at work, at church, at parties, at the cinemas, at fast-food joints, on the street, in buses, everywhere. Accents are ubiquitous these days. They have almost become de rigueur, a must-have social requirement for living and working in Lagos. With the rise of these foreign accents, an accompanying belief has emerged. The belief that until you speak your English with some kind of British or American accent, you have not sufficiently demonstrated your sophistication or shown yourself worthy to be regarded as a member of the 'elite' or 'upper class'. Fake accents have proliferated.
But it wasn't always like this. I grew up in Lagos, and during my Primary school days in the 90s, people didn't go around saying things like 'Hawee yeou?' Oh, yes there were many people with foreign accents even then but you could tell that the accents were real genuine ones, not manufactured. As I remember, some of my schoolmates had foreign accents back then, but such children usually just came back to Nigeria with their parents after years of living abroad. Some of them were even born abroad, but the funny thing is, after spending – at the most – two full terms with us, they would have lost their accents and they would be speaking exactly the way we, born and bred Naija kids, were speaking.
However, these days, you see fully grown, fully developed twenty-something Lagos adults, who were born, bred and 'buttered' in Lagos, go to the UK for one year to pursue a Masters and then they come back with a total British accent that doesn't disappear for up to five years after they completed the degree. Or you see people who went abroad for a two-month vacation and they come back to Lagos with foreign accents. And then you hear some people, people who can't even tell the difference between London and the entire United Kingdom, and everything they say ends with 'innit?' even though you can't tell whether their accents are British or American or even Jamaican. I mean, who is fooling who?
So I believe the question is how did we get here? When did having an accent become a status symbol? Why has everybody in Lagos suddenly gone foreign accent-crazy? What led to this?
There are several things I as a person could point to as factors responsible for this foreign-accent-mania. One of them is satellite TV. Almost everyone watches DSTV or some other form of cable pay-TV nowadays as opposed to the 90s, those days of the really huge satellite dishes, when DSTV/MultiChoice was the major cable provider and it was only for the rich. Cable TV, with its music and movie and lifestyle channels, informs our ideas of what's cool, of what's hot and what's not. And cable TV is chock-full of foreign shows and foreign accents.
And then, together with cable TV, there's the increased availability of pirated American movies on DVDs. Pirated movies are everywhere now as opposed to the 90s when movies were on video tapes. Many of our trends and foreign speech patterns are from Hollywood movies. So it's like the accents people don't learn from cable, they learn from long hours immersed in DVDs of foreign movie 'collections' and 'season films'.
The Internet also helped the foreign accent trend along. The Internet made sure young Nigerians kept up with the emerging expressions and slang, so much so that foreign coinages like 'omg' and 'baby-mama' are now used in everyday conversation.
Still, not everyone gets their accents from media. Some people actually grew up abroad or lived there for a while and a distinction must be made between them and those whose accents were developed from what they heard on TV or in movies. There are real, original foreign accents and there are fake, counterfeit ones. The problem is that these days, it's getting harder to tell the difference.
In the end though, the main factor responsible for the large number of accents today, whether real or fake, is that sad, peculiarly Nigerian desire to 'oppress'. We always want to oppress. In any Nigerian gathering, there are always people who want to demonstrate their superiority. People who want to show you that they're better than you, they have more money than you, they have a bigger car, they live in a bigger house, they have a more lucrative job, they have smarter kids, they have prettier daughters, they are more sophisticated, they live in a posher area, they attend a posher church, their children attend posher schools, they are connected to more powerful people, they are more exposed, they've visited more countries, they are more important, they eat better food; in short their entire lives are superior to your own and the only thing that is required of you is to bow, and accept that you don't measure up to them. This is the reason why our country is the way it is, why our leaders act the way they do. Oppression is part of the general Nigerian culture. It has nothing to do with tribe or region or religion. It is what we do. It is who we are.
Possession of an accent is a part of this oppression. Everyone wants to speak with an accent because they think it tells the people listening, 'Hey, I'm with it. I'm cool. I'm exposed. I'm sophisticated. I've been abroad' as if having been abroad automatically makes you wise or knowledgeable or worth listening to.
It is for this reason, to demonstrate superiority, that we hear accents everywhere today. In almost every TV advert nowadays, we hear all kinds of strange accents. Is it in the Etisalat Easy-Starter advert where the guy pronounces kobo as 'kow-bow'? Or the Easy-Cliq one where the guy in the green T-shirt and black waistcoat keeps saying "Is it 'be-kiz' we…" instead of 'because'. Or the Sunlight washing powder advert where the women are singing "Happy times are 'he'" instead of 'here' – a style which incidentally has been adopted by many church choirs. Or the Cool FM radio presenter who some years ago, when trying to teach Dan Foster, her co-host, the proper pronunciation of the Yoruba 'pele' kept saying "It's not 'bele', it's 'kpelay'". What is that???
But I suppose I shouldn't bring radio show hosts into this discussion. Lagos radio is inseparable from foreign accents. I think it's virtually impossible to get a job at a Lagos radio station without some kind of foreign accent.
We hear orisirisi accents in church. Apparently, God is no longer pronounced as 'God' but as 'Gad' and Jesus is now 'Jeezis'. We hear orisirisi accents in Nollywood movies. In a movie advert I saw a while ago, a popular Nollywood actress said this line: "Ohmigod! How did you git my sistiz pikchis?" Imagine that. We hear orisirisi accents on regular Nigerian TV. From newscasters to talk show hosts to entertainment show anchors to music artistes, everyone has an accent. We hear things like "now if we criticly analoize the current guvmint polisay" and "Yeah, ah star-ed wrai-ing songs and rhyming when ah wuz like 13 or so cuz y'know ah always knew music wuz what ah wuz gon' do". All of it just makes you wonder. Why? Must you have an accent to be taken seriously? As a music artiste, do you have to be a fake Americana before you have credibility?
An erroneous belief I have discovered that many people and even certain schools hold is that to speak English properly, you must have a British/English accent. This is completely false! All over the world, in places where English is spoken but not as the mother tongue, people speak English with natural accents derived from their first language. Even in the UK itself, Scottish people speak English with a thick Scottish accent as do the Welsh and the Irish. When French people speak English, you know that they are French. It is the same with the Italians, the Spanish, the Germans, the Dutch, the Chinese, everyone. So how can we, Nigerians, with our multitude of local languages and mother tongues, believe that our English must be spoken with a proper upper-class English accent to be correct?
I personally believe it is a throwback to colonialism and that persisting mindset that the white man's way is always better. We should be proud of our African accents! The way to speak correct English is not to kill yourself trying to acquire a foreign accent. It is to make sure that your sentences are grammatically correct and that all your words are pronounced properly. And you do not have to possess a British or American accent to pronounce English words properly.
Let us tell ourselves the truth. Accents in Nigeria, whether real or fake, are prized because people want to show off. They want to prove a point. They want to let you know that they're not from around here. They've been abroad. And everyone knows everything about the white man's country is automatically better than anything we have here. Abi, no be so?
Now, I'm not saying everybody who speaks with an accent is trying to show off but the truth is many of them are. And the idea that people think an accent makes you somehow superior is just ridiculous to me! If anything, an acquired accent (especially a fake one) is a sign of an inferiority complex to the white people whose accent you're copying. It's like saying, "Oh, I don't believe the way I speak is good enough and so let me change it to the way these people speak which is better." To acquire an accent or not to, for an adult, is a choice. Why do we, Nigerians who grew up here, go abroad to the UK or America, and immediately force ourselves to cultivate their accent? How many adult Britons or Americans do we see who go somewhere and then they change their accent and start speaking their English with the local accent? It all boils down to being proud of who you are.
A very good example of sticking to your natural accent is Gerard Butler, the Hollywood actor who played King Leonidas in the classic movie '300'. He is Scottish and though he's acted in so many Hollywood movies and can deliver an American or English accent at the drop of a hat, when he gives interviews, he still speaks English with his Scottish brogue. No faking. No Americana. Same thing for Russell Crowe. He's been in Hollywood even longer than Gerard Butler but his Australian accent is still intact.
And then there's Matthew Rhys, who plays Kevin Walker in the ABC series 'Brothers and Sisters'. Matthew Rhys is from Wales, but watching him on the show, you would never be able to tell that he's not American. His accent is that good. Still, when they interview him in real life, sometimes it's hard to even understand what he's saying because of his thick Welsh accent. After years of living and working in America, how come Matthew Rhys has held on to his Welsh accent? How come he and Russell Crowe and Gerard Butler haven't started speaking Americana? It's because they are proud of who they are and where they are coming from.
A Nigerian like us, Madam Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, our current Minister of Finance, has worked at the World Bank in America for years. But when she talks, we don't hear Americana flowing from her mouth. I thank God for Nigerians like her. Those are the people who know who they are and what they stand for. I wrote this little rant because enough is enough. I'm tired of hearing all these foreign accents. I'm tired of these fakers and pretenders and posers. Please, reclaim your own Nigerian identity. And revel in it.
I made a vow to myself recently: Till the day I die no matter where I'm living, except I'm involved in some kind of performance which requires a different accent, I will never EVER speak English with any accent apart from my natural Nigerian one.
It is a vow I'm very proud of. It is a vow I believe every Nigerian, born and bred here, should also make.

I felt like this was too long…like there were some parts you repeated your argument. But its a valid discourse…very important and realistic.
Me…I can't fake an accent to save my life…except its ameriscot…which I don't what that is.
festus adibe (@dibsdadon)
LOL …………..I thought u said medium length rant, dude this was long for me o!
Anyway, I feel u sha, it annoys me especially in Nigerian movies. the funny part is when I hear Nigerians feeling super while using chav and skank slangs like "innit","whatever", "durrrrh" hilarious.
Nevertheless, I won't be too quick to make the vow you made at the end, a change in location can really affect a person's accent. believe me.
Myne (@Myne)
I hear you, and this trend really bothers me. I live in the US and when I call friends and family, the first thing they ask is, you've not got an accent yet? SMH.
To be honest though, it was easier keeping my Nigerian accent while I lived in the UK, the American accent is so different, it's hard to escape. You need like minute-by-minute conscious effort not to be affected in one-or-two words. But changing my whole speech pattern, I think I'm too set in my Nigerian ways.
Lawal Opeyemi Isaac (@easylife2)
Ol'boy this matter don really vex you o. Please help us tell them,maybe they'll listen this time.
Well done!!!
posh (@posh)
Waoh..this is quite a looooong one.
Well,i think i agree with you here.Some times it's so annoying when some people obviously fake the accent,and even more annoying when they dont do it well.
At this point i must confess that there was actually a time i fell-in-love with the british accent that i really wanted to learn it, So i started practicing.I'm a customer service person.I speak with different people everyday,so i decided to include it in my day to day conversation.Before i knew it,people started complimenting me.Although its not totally,not even one-tenth of british but i loved it when i hear myself speak then (It's all gone now,though).
I was not faking it,it's just what i enjoyed doing.
So i wouldnt take that vow,if i were you..lol
Welldone Gboyega.
Rhema (@rhema)
This has really upset you. lol!
I must admit that I had fun reading this article. The problem is with Nigeria and Nigerians is deeper than we care to admit.
When was the last time we wore "Aba made" shoes?
Isn't a girl considered "bush" if she plaits her hair with black thread and dresses in a way not considered "chic"? etc, etc.
I attended secondary school in Nigeria. Weren't students punished for speaking "vernacular" in the class? What do you expect when little children are programmed to look down on things that are culturally ours?
Is English not our lingua franca? (whatever that means:) )
We should not stop half way, ke!…..Please allow us to acquire the accent too.
ps: :)
ooops! The problem (is) with…
How does one edit submitted comments?
kaycee (@kaycee)
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
You ά̲̣яε totally on point.
Faking happens every where, but it has a class of its own in Nigeria. Einstein said human stupidity is infinite, Nigerian stupidity has its own class.
Faking works in Nigeria and it will keep working so long as Nigerians still think the way they do.
I noticed something crazy when I started using reading glasses. Nigerians actually attach sophistication to people who wear glasses. They think its 'cool' that one is suffering from bad sight.

"Just enter an office on Ajose Adeogun and you hear things like 'Ohmigod! Tope, is that yeou? I haven't seen you in ay-jes! How you doing?' And Tope replies, 'Oh, I'm foine. Hawee yeou?" That totally cracked me up (is that americana english? Well, i sha didn't say it with American accent, lol)
Gboyega Otolorin (@guywriterer)
Hey guys, I thank you all for commenting. I'm really ashamed of myself for not responding all this time. No vex abeg. Na hustling cause am.
and btw, Sueddie commented on one of my posts and said I should change this my pic cos it makes me look like a woman… I said na wa oh…pls ppl thoughts?? Who agrees?
feathersproject (@feathersproject)
Gbo well done, I can imagine your face while you made your keyboard bear the brunt of your anger! Abeg vex small, small, it's too early to have blood pressure because of Naija wahala!
On your pic, I totally agree. Your experiment as a crazy biochemist ended ages ago. Kindly change this mad picture…
The Oga himself!! Ok, I've heard..looking for a new pic..As for the piece, I'm not vexing oh, just needed to express how I was feeling about all the fake accents these days..I should have made it shorter though. I see that now. It's a bit repetitive in some places.
Bubbllinna (@sibbylwhyte)
@gboyega..This no be medium length o..Kai bros U vex well well..
The thing with fake accents is that people keep applauding it..Mtscheew!!
A girl I used to know as a typical Onitsha girl..just started speaking Americana suddenly..And I was left wondering when She travelled out of the country..
Maybe she use molue fly go dia sha..
Nicely done Ranting..
Sister @sibbylwhyte, thank you jare. Wetin fake accent don cause for dis country ehn.. God will have mercy.
Jefsaraurmax (@jefsaraurmax)
@gboyega, this is a good piece but never say never about accents.I have been living in the US for a while and when I speak French (my native language), I have an American accent now, not on purpose.Since I still have a French accent when I speak American I guess it balances out.
My kids can imitate the valley accent (O My gawd!) and it is hilarious especially when my 5 years old does it!
Thanks @jefsaraurmax, for your comment. Really appreciate it. I'm not saying I'll never have an accent, (sometimes they creep up on you before you know it), what I meant is I'll never consciously force myself to adopt a foreign style of speaking. In fact, I will do my possible best to retain my normal natural Naija accent no matter where I'm living…it makes you more original.
But anyhow, this was a 'vexing' piece. Wrote it cos I was simply fed up of all the fake accents I was hearing everywhere….
adaobiokwy (@adaobiokwy)
Medium length? I fear your full length o!
Nice one; I hope 'em hear am!
pretending to (be) what you're not
Geez, thanks for that correction. Can't believe I never noticed that all this time…

It seems as though atheism can be defined in the same terms as a belief in, I'll say a religious god (even though the term religion now seems to be debatable in regards to a "higher being&quot , although it is on the opposite spectrum, that of disbelief in a religious god. Is it true that atheists do not believe in a god, or would some describe their thoughts as being more agnostic, non-belief, rather than disbelief, as my friend explained it to me.
My argument is that an atheist appears just as guilty of belief in an absolute as a religious person is: there is no god vs. there is a god. Both are absolutes. How can someone know either way absolutely without there being "belief" involved.
What do you think? And what if Christians, Jews, Muslims, and whatever other religious believers are right? Who knows? And what if at some time in the future atheism is the predominant belief, does no one feel that religious believers would be persecuted just as some of you feel you are being persecuted in some way now?
The same questions are all over these forums. For me it is lack of belief in any diety. I do not have absolute knowledge but based on my assesment of evidence, atheism is my best posistion on the subject. The "what ifs" are silly, you could do that with anything. All we can do is base our lives on the world we live in, not the "what if" world.
does no one feel that religious believers would be persecuted just as some of you feel you are being persecuted in some way now?
In some places they are. In America they're called non-christians.
Atheism does not require faith. That is a logical fallacy. Religion is a positive assertion without proof. Religion is bound to a Loki's wager logical fallacy, stating that their is a deity which is beyond our understanding ergo cannot be proven.
You need to understand the difference between a weak atheist and a strong atheist. Personally I'm a mix of the two as I realize there is more then one idea of god. And those idea which I take a harder stance on are those which are logically impossible or are like calling a cat a horse.
There are different kinds of belief. I might believe the sun will raise in the morning but that is different from me believing there is a 10,000 pound diamond under my house.
What do you think? And what if Christians, Jews, Muslims, and whatever other religious believers are right? Who knows?
'What if' games are nice, but don't always get you somewhere. This kind of 'what if' is can be played on both sides and is really an old argument called Pascal's Wager, be it a more simple form.
And what if at some time in the future atheism is the predominant belief, does no one feel that religious believers would be persecuted just as some of you feel you are being persecuted in some way now?
Of course it could be possible, but an atheist doesn't have a book or holy leader telling him or her to do it and they can use reason when it comes to a problem. I don't think it could never happen, but I would think it is less likely for atheists (those who are from a logical reason anyway) to do something like that. If the governments remain secular there shouldn't be a problem as it shouldn't rule for or against religious ideas. The only "harm" I can see a secular government doing against religion is telling them they can't commit crimes that would be a crime to anyone else in any other setting.
These are interesting points, and I will definitely read them over. This is my first time on this forum and I look forward to returning.
Actually, you've mixed up definitions a bit. I'll explain in the next paragraph.
Theist: Belief there is God.
Counter-theist: Belief there is no God.
1) we're on a debate forum, in which both sides support their positions.
2) in real life, nobody should give a space-rat's posterior on whether one is a theist or an atheist, or agnostic, or whatever. The only situation in which atheists appear as atheists is when they are forced to defend their rights and their positions, in which case we're kind of back to no. 1.
And what if Christians, Jews, Muslims, and whatever other religious believers are right? Who knows?
OK, apparently you haven't heard of Pascal's Wager, so I would ask you to search for it a little bit.
Now for my opinion on this one: The best argument against religions alltogether is the fact that they actually exist. From my knowledge, they are mutually incompatible (you cannot go to one religion's heaven if you are part of another religion). So, OK, whichever religion is right, I go to hell, but the chances of a Christian to go to hell are a wincy bit lower than mine. For instance, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_religions and my topic called "Plurality", if anyone offers to answer it, of course. considering only major religions and branches, there are about 57 (somewhere around that number), but we will take 50 to be round. The chance of an atheist to enter the heaven is 0%, but the chance of the member of one of these is 1 out of 50, that would mean 2%. And that, of course, taking only the major PRESENT religions. If we were to take all religions that once existed, I think the chance would be somewhere around 0.1% or even less, which is just as insignificant.
I doubt it. I don't see any serious atheist campaigning to destroy all churches, mosques and places of worship.
Besides, I don't necessarily feel persecuted. It happens, from time to time, that the rights of a certain category of people aren't respected, but "Errare humanum est", so give a notice, and if the situation is corrected, I'm just cool with that.
i disagree. i think that atheism requires more or less as much faith as theism - of course depending on whether or not you're a weak or strong atheist. as i stated in another thread, though, i don't think that faith is the issue at hand, but rather the object of faith. and i'm not saying "object of faith" in the vague, meaningless christian sense, i'm saying it as one would say grammatically "x is the object of this sentence." it receives the action of disbelief. no empirical evidence exists that proves or disproves god, so in the faith department we seem to be more or less equals.
This is the crux of the matter. I'm a scientist, so my business is to turn hypotheses into theories into facts via emperical evidence gathering and testing. A proposed hypothesis is presumed false to keep the integrity of the scientific method. This way, the community plays devils advocate, and a new theory has to survive a baptism of fire before acceptance. A hypothesis is presumed false, and God is a hypothesis. Therefore, God can be presumed false until proven true.
Therefore, God can be presumed false until proven true.
Nice, I'm going to put that as my signature.

What is an emulator?
An emulator is a program that can imitate the effects of another hardware or software environment. It lets you run PC games on non-PC devices. But emulators don't always play the way they were intended to be played, so they're not perfect.
Why should I use an emulator?
Aside from the convenience of not having to download anything, emulators offer other advantages. One is that you can switch between multiple accounts without switching devices. You can also take advantage of exclusive features like cloud saves and gamepad compatibility.
An emulator is a program that allows your PC to imitate the software of a videogame console, in this case, Guitar Hero 3. The emulator will make your computer feel like it is actually running on the console and will allow you to play games designed for that console. This is especially useful when it comes to old games because many of them are no longer available for purchase. Emulators can be downloaded for free and work with any computer.

There are many reasons why you should use an emulator for this game, but one of the main reasons is that it allows gamers to continue playing their favorite old games without having to buy them again or find them secondhand. Furthermore, emulators have many benefits such as allowing people who don't know how to code or hack games to alter in-game content and cheat.
How do I set up my emulator?
If you're unfamiliar with how to set up an emulator on your computer, follow these steps:
1) Download and install the emulator.
2) Download the game ROM file and save it to your computer.
3) Open your emulator and click 'My Apps' in the menu bar.
4) Click 'App Manager'.
5) Click on '+' and choose the game ROM file.
6) Enjoy playing this awesome game!
What are the benefits of emulators?
Emulators are a great way to enjoy old games. You can play games on your computer without having to download anything! There are also no ads, so you can play the game without interruption. The best part is that emulators allow you to save progress so you don't have to start over every time.
Emulators like BlueStacks and BlueStacks 2 are one of the best ways to enjoy your favorite games without needing a console. You can now play Guitar Hero 3 on your computer, even if you don't have a gaming console. Emulators allow you to use software to replicate a gaming experience. In other words, an emulator is the digital equivalent of a gaming console.
So what's so great about emulators? There are many benefits to using an emulator for playing games. With an emulator, you can play from anywhere and not just from your home or office. Instead of having to be in front of your TV screen playing a game, you can play from the comfort of your computer chair or bed with headphones on. If you're traveling for work or pleasure, taking an emulator with you is easy. Just download the emulator before heading out, plug in via USB cable right before landing at the airport, and then start playing! One other reason why emulators are so great is that they're incredibly cost-efficient compared to paying for each individual gaming console or game separately (not to mention shipping costs). Emulators will let you play any type of game without requiring any additional purchases–you only need one program!

New Any.do integration lets you create tasks and reminders in WhatsApp
While WhatsApp is primarily a communication tool, a new integration from Any.do also makes it possible to extend the capabilities of the chat app to create tasks and reminders using natural language.
As WhatsApp is often used in both the business and personal worlds to discuss a set up meetings, appointments and get-togethers, the ability to set reminders at the same time as discussing plans makes perfect sense. Like Any.do and WhatsApp themselves, the new feature is cross-platform, and can be found on iOS, Android, Mac, Windows and the web.
Facebook Pay launches in the US, with payment options in Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp and Instagram
WeChat and WhatsApp: How to safely embrace these business essentials
Facebook is renaming WhatsApp and Instagram
Many WhatsApp users will be pleased to see reminders arriving in their favorite messaging app, and Any.do fans will be happy to see their favorite tool integrating with other services. The key to success is support for natural language. By either forwarding a message to WhatsApp or sending a direct message, tasks can be created, and WhatsApp will send out a reminder in plenty of time. Moreover, everything synchronizes with Any.do across your devices.
The founder and CEO of Any.do, Omer Perchik, says:
Our users kept asking us for integrations with other apps. When we interviewed them and looked into the data, it became clear that a WhatsApp integration would be a complete game-changer. With the goal of helping people organize their life and get more done, we wanted to create a simple way for people to capture and track their tasks in the most frictionless way. With the scale of WhatsApp and the natural language technology we built in-house to make it happen – that's exactly what we did.
You can see the reminder creation process in action below:
Although Any.do's integration is available in WhatsApp across a range of platforms, for now it is English-only. However, work is already underway to add support for Hindi, Spanish, French, Russian, Portuguese, Arabic, German and Italian.

Hungry plants could learn a thing or two from nitrogen-fixing bacteria
By Michael Irving
Hungry plants could learn a th...
Researchers have engineered bacteria to absorb nitrogen from the air, with the eventual goal of developing plants that can do the same

Nitrogen is a vital nutrient for plants, and although there's plenty of it drifting around in the air, they can only pull it out of the ground – hence the need for artificial fertilizer. But now, researchers at Washington University in St Louis have engineered bacteria that can efficiently suck nitrogen out of the air, and the long-term goal is to develop crops that can do the same.
About 78 percent of the Earth's atmosphere is made up of nitrogen, but the legume family is among the very few plants that are able to tap into that rich resource (known as nitrogen fixing). The vast majority rely on absorbing the nutrient through their roots, but soil can often be lacking, requiring fertilizer to be spread onto crops.
Developing plants that can essentially "fertilize" themselves through the air could be a huge boon to agriculture and the environment. In a recent study, researchers engineered soybean plants to have more nitrogen-carrying proteins, which kicked the plants into overdrive. Another technique, infusing seeds with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, could be applied to almost any plant.
Similar bacteria were the focus for the new study. The WUSTL researchers set out to isolate the nitrogen-fixing genes in cyanobacteria. In particular, they focused on a species known as Cyanothece, which uses a circadian rhythm to photosynthesize during the day and fix nitrogen at night.
The team determined which genes were responsible for this biological clock, and spliced them into another cyanobacteria species, Synechocystis, to see if it could pick up the nitrogen-fixing ability. And sure enough, it did.
After the removal of oxygen, which is produced through photosynthesis and interferes with the nitrogen fixation, and the addition of 35 new genes, Synechocystis was able to fix nitrogen at a rate of about two percent that of Cyanothece. Not great, but it's a start. But the bugs upped their game when the team removed some of the added genes: with only 24 Cyanothece genes, Synechocystis' nitrogen fixing increased to over 30 percent of Cyanothece's rate.
"This means that the engineering plan is feasible," says Himadri Pakrasi, lead researcher on the study. "I must say, this achievement was beyond my expectation."
The research is a step towards the team's ultimate goal of finding a way to genetically engineer plants that are able to fix nitrogen. Doing so could increase the yield of crops and reduce the need for fertilizer, which can be environmentally costly to produce and hazardous once it leaches into natural waterways.
The research was published in the journal mBio.

I'd love to say "don't do it", but technology marches whether it's dangerous or not. Let's say these guys are successful... at first, only farmers use it and that's great. Later, these types of plants leak into the general environment; they out-compete natural plants. The GMO plants proper and the other plants suffer. The whole natural environment changes. I like the forest like it is now. But then, I would like it as it WAS before all the chestnuts died out, too.
re-update July 17, 2018 01:50 PM
I know quite a lot about this as I've spent some time researching it.
In the natural world, soil is filled with microorganisms; 'bacteria' or soil biota that is made up of various creatures including fungi and enzymes who all perform specific roles; many or most of which help the plant and maintain soil health as detritus is dropped on it and left to decompose.
With modern farming, we use chemical fertilizer which kills these microorganisms. Some of the fertilizer is absorbed; some is washed away by rain, and much oxidises in the atmosphere forming nitrous oxides - a powerful GHG.
Really what we should be doing is using the waste products created throughout the agricultural process - either crop or livestock waste streams. The interesting thing to do is to capture the methane that is released when this waste decomposes, and utilise it instead of its geological variant.
And then we put the remaining carbon and nutrients back on the soil. This completes the circle of nutrient return, to a certain degree, and is better than simply using chemicals.
But the further interesting thing is that by not using chemical fertilizer, this allows the soil biota to survive. And so by having a level of pre-existing soil health, those microbes that fix nitrogen, living around and even within plants and crops, can be added to by additional strains (or just a random group of healthy bacteria rhyzomes etc) - thus doing a better job than chemical crop treatments, including pesticides and other treatments.
Biocontrols as they are called have been used for years in India, but Monsanto have recently brought out a range of products based on these biota that they advertise as augmenting, or replacing traditional crop controls.
So these bacteria perform a wide variety of functions - however the use of substrate from biogas AD units significantly increases their ability to maintain healthy colonies and in turn maintain soil health.
Signguy July 18, 2018 12:42 PM
God prescribed the best solution by having the people plant the seventh year but not Harvest it and turn it under so that it would lie fallow for a year. The result of this is that it would reactivate all of the bacteria back to the soil that would give them all the nutrition they needed to plant for another 6 years.
