I had an interview in one firm in lekki God on my side I made it through.
The problem I had last 2 weeks ago was accommodation.
The recruiter asked me how I intend relocating because the job demands I resume work by 7:30am to 8:00am, I told him I will figure it out. So, I tried everything I could, I called friends that know friend may be I could get a place or room to squat for 3months in Ajah or a nearby place but all to no avail. Now, I am wallowing in regret, no money no job. Pain me walahi!

I can teach ICT as a computer science graduate.
I can handle any issue with computer and printer
I can code

Please, if there is any opportunity for me help me out.

Thanks

You can code and you're not targeting the tech companies in Yaba and other parts of the mainland? You're not applying for remote jobs? What's your tech stack?

Congrats! With what I've read so far, you need to do one thing. Keep things to yourself, stop telling people sh**t. You wan travel? Arrive at your location before you broadcast it. Wish you all the best.

First things first, I think you need to keep things simple beacuse you're mixing up a lot of things.

1. You should stick to arrow arrow functions, once you do this you won't need to bind (using this). Most modern codebases do this, moreover we should all be ES6 complainant.

2. Once you initialise state like this...

state = {} you don't need a constructor. You only need a constructor once you do this.state={}

3. To understand how events work please Google "Reactjs form tutorial" a good number of insightful tutorials will come up.

Back to this city, it's cool yet has everything I need,no noise, clean and organized. Everyone is minding their business but if you ask they respond well and ready to help. My little observation.
By the way, their accent is confusing at times.
My first night, was ok. Just still tired from the trip. Pictures coming soon

It's time to download Google maps. Once you do this you'll never get lost again.

Hi Good Morning, I sent you a PM Sir.

Hi, I'm sorry I can't access my PM at the moment.

Davoneskay:
They all governed like Illiterates. Their academic experience never reflected in their governance. At a time, Oyo politics was called amala politics.

Governed like illiterates and illiterate Governors are different things from a point of syntax and semantics. The initial statement was clear, waxing philosophical is not necessary.

Btw Amala politics was a metaphor for corruption, greed and self centeredness. Amala Politics = Stomach Infrastructure

Unlimitk:
Guy,don't worry seyi makinde is a technocrattechnocrat
He will look into it
He is not like those old illiterate governors that have governed oyo state

Bola Ige - Lawyer
Omololu Olunloyo - Doctor
Kolapo Ishola - (Can't remember his profession but he wasn't an illiterate)
Lam Adesina - Retired Principal
Rasheed Ladoja - Engineer/Shipping magnate
Alao Akala - Retired Assistant Commissioner of Police
Ajimobi - Studied abroad worked with Shell before joining politics.

Please who are the illiterate Governors you're talking about?

ShyWhale:
I am a Nigerian in Germany with a German Masters degree. It's quite difficult to get professional jobs in Germany as an African as we are usually the last of the pack. The only luck I ever had was to get internships, internships that takes several months to get and usually only for short periods. The high percentage of Africans even with German Phds doing menial jobs is highly discouraging and depressing. Most are trapped in the race for survival and I can't imagine myself living life like them. I feel I could do better with my skills and education that spreads across Europe's top countries.

I made the decision to return to Nigeria, harness my skills and start up a processing company. At 25 and the sole breadwinner of an extended family, they are asking me to stay put, saying that the Nigerian environment is not good for business (I feel they are only scared of losing out on the goodies they get from me).

Also last year, the family introduced me to a female in the UK, talking about marriage to her. The said lady is a Nigerian within my age range, but born and raised in the UK. Though I have been to the UK severally to see her, I have made no commitments whatsoever as she is not the kind of lady I would marry all things being equal. She and the family have however given me a ultimatum to decide now.


What do you advice?

Your first paragraph is not totally correct, you can't use your industry's experience as a general verdict. I work in Tech and I can tell you that German companies are 'stealing' Nigerian Software Engineers on a daily basis. So what type of Masters did you study? Did you do a feasibility study before embarking on the Masters? Can you pivot to another career? Have you checked the careers in demand in Germany? You need to sit down to figure these things out.

Btw if your girl and your family are giving you an ultimatum on a lifetime decision then it simply means you're not man enough and you need to stamp your authority before you can think about marriage.

Olalekank:
Thanks

I don't use it for WhatsApp again

Can you drop your number?


BTW, I'm the one being the two monickers

I've replied your PM

kolalekan:
Thank you for that, please do you have a specific link on how to get this in the correct structure?

Also I'd like to send you a PM, are you fine by that?

Is the number in your signature registered on Whatsapp? If yes I'll send you a message.

I know its early days but you might want to read up on how to structure your components. You'll see some tips on the official React site

Olalekank:
Sounds nice, might end up using socket.io

I thought the componentDidMount is called only once in the particular component?


Also, I'm experiencing a bug in my search
If I wanna search for "the house"

When I type t, it brings out all the items in the array
When I type th, it brings out all the items with t
When I type the, it brings out all the items with th

I tried doing setState in my render method and it gave me errors. Do you have any idea how I can solve this?

After looking at your code for some minutes, I think the real problem is in the Search Component (changeInput method and the stuff you are rendering). You might what to rewrite it. Check the SO example below

I'm not done with adding styles but that should be fixed soon

You might need to check this again. Site is blank.

Yes...that's where Ajax comes in to do the dirty job. I'll use Socket to avoid any headache.

How can I get access to the code? Sounds like a problem with "value" .I'll need to see the code to be sure

kolalekan:
Can you shed more light on it, I am like 70% done on a currency converter app and may come up with a real time weather app that updates

How do you want to fetch the data real time? Thank you

A real time weather update sounds like it but I hope to build one for currency/stock price.

I have two ideas for fetching data in real time

1. Plugging Ajax into componentDidMount

2. Socket.io

I might end up using socket.io

kolalekan:
Please does anyone have an idea of a react project I can undertake?

A real time dashboard. Got the idea while watching Bloomberg. I also want to build it before this month runs out

at least one person here can identify sth. Please tell the house more about honeypot and how they operate.

I wish I could but the best thing to do is to go to honeypot.io to 'hear' directly from the source.

Funny thread. Lots of stories but no single person has mentioned the site. I guess the Op will make a few bucks from referrals so he's keeping the site to his chest.

If the logo on this thread is a pointer, then the site is honeypot.io

The suspense is crazy. Lol

This look likes a classic wazobia collaboration. Unity in diversity.

Yorubas will say that igbos should be more concerned about abia state. Yes we are very concerned about that. But if u look beyond pettiness u will see that lagos is very important to every tribe in nigeria. It is nigerias first major city and it was built with money from all parts of nigeria. Allowing a greedy, tribal mad man like tinubu to decide solely who gets what in Nigeria's New york is very dangerous and counter productive.

It was built with money from all parts of Nigeria? This is false, thank God for Google. Lagos didn't come into the Nigerian picture until 1914 when it was made the capital of amalgamated Nigeria. All you need to do is search for trade and commerce in Lagos before 1914, also search why the British had to make Lagos a colony as far as 1861.

The PR rocket has been launched with full force, journos are working hard to polish his image. Saraki's only error was the fact that he lost touch with his base because people on social media hyped him. The money paid to twitter influencers is a good example.

Chai! I feel for you, next time seek advice before making a move like this.

Fresh General. What he needs to do now is to spend one week at the depot.
