I barely see any real programmers on this section. majority of the people who call themselves programmers on this section are mostly mere web developers or data analysts. I barely see peeps talk about low level programming languages, or even talk about any other field in tech apart from web development.

Apple/Microsft/Google make use of the most C++ tools we don't even Know, Facebook used C++ to improve PHP (Hack), Apple and Google built a lot of LLVM using C++.

A lot of people do, you should really research before making such. Programming is not all just Js or consuming API, Apple uses Metal for graphics like Vulkan which is also low-level. DirectX is C++ and for Graphics and uses by MS, Google uses a lot of C++ tools, V8 is C++ which allows you write JS on the browser.


Even the person claiming a C++ dev is not better than me, is new to HTML/CSS so

Get rid of egos and learn tools. I do JS, and tons of C++ are better than me, it's fact. We are not the best and that's okay, we keep learning.

True to an extent, new developers aren't into what will take their time before they start making money from tech, they just dive into something easier to learn and do, like web development, data analyst, etc. It's only the passionate ones(especially those that their main priority is not the money) that will spend years learning a specific low level language and more complex field in tech. So funny that those guys that are mostly passionate about their field aren't mostly on social media (nigerians to be specific). I have peeps like that around my neighborhood that are indoors coding all days and rarely come out, the only days I do see them is only on Saturday morning when they workout.

Web development easy Mehn ! I can really tell that you only came here for cruise and I am not sure you are even a web developer. Just someone who is ignorant and does not even know that he is.

If that is your definition of low level language in what category would you put Go Lang that get you access to pointers and also have garbage collection?

frank155:


It's definitely not low level

exactly, this is the first place I have seen 'programmers' saying C++ is not low-level, indirectly saying C is also not low-level and even saying Go-lang can be considered low-level because it gives you access to pointers!

All I can say is WOW

Typical African and Nigerian with severe inferiority complex


Small thing you're mentioning Reddit


Why are you commenting here when you can Goto your Reddit and never show face here again.


Because someone's opinion is different from yours you want to use that as a Yardstick to bash this section.



For your information they're more trolls on Reddit than they're on Nl


And if it's me ur referring to as the guy who's new to "HTML/Css" better think twice about that...


I've seen your old post and all your abandoned projects.... speaks volumes about the type of programmer you're.

Someone said Reddit is actually a better place than Nairaland to get advise on programming & coding-related issues, you shout severe inferiority complex to cover up for your misplaced ego

Saying Reddit is a better place for addressing the issue we have here is not bashing, it is a fact and just because NL is a Nigerian forum and may be dear to us should not call for us to keep fellow Nigerians in ignorance!

Or do you want to tell us that you did not employ the services of the likes of Youtube, Google & Stackoverflow on your programming journey, why did you not tell yourself small thing I am using Google or Youtube, blah blah blah? and keep yourself in ignorance?

One of those ones who thinks they're the best in the world because they're using C++



C++ is just another programming language which operates with same principles as other programming languages


Wonder why you think you're better than others because ur using c++


At the end of the day, it's your take home pay that matters

Lolzzz the truth be sey, if you and the guy stood in front of an employer a thousand times, the employer would always pick him over you
