Tech is the way bro
Tech is the future.
The earlier this is realised,the better it is for whoever. It's not easy tho, it's very hard to learn hence the hooge pay. I myself have begun my tech journey (cloud architecture). Any pointers or tips from the tech bros of NL will be appreciated. 1 Like |

I want to add something from people transitioning into tech. It's important not to focus on "becoming" but on just "doing" Enjoy it, understand it. Don't put yourself under pressure by dreaming about fat remote salaries. All those come naturally when you have enough to offer. Heck even if they don't come you can build your own software and sell that shit or have a startup you can get $$$ for. If you are getting into tech with this scarcity mentality it might not really be too comfortable. If you need money, get side jobs or gigs, go into crypto or Forex or nfts. Those are some of the get rich schemes( provided you know them well. But tech needs your attention to learning and calm. That's all from my end. 19 Likes 4 Shares |

And it will never be sweet for you in Jesus name... so you're even a medical doctor transitioned into tech? You and other medical doctors and pharmacists trying to go into coding are very big he-goats  idiots in the making that will only end up failing. Thunder scatter all of you. What happened to your medical field? Or you guys no longer want to make your parents proud again? You people always belittle people who intended to study Computer science that year, calling them all sorts of names, saying rubbish about the course and people who study them. But now na the same CS all of una don dey rush come, bunch of idiots you're gonna fail woefully in this field I assure you that, you won't earn shishi from it, better go and face your medicine jejely, rubbish You people use to see your selves as Demi Gods in the society, every parent wanted their kids to study medicine even if the child does not want to, just attain one yeye social status and be called a medical doctor, (my son is a medical doctor, my daughter is a medical doctor. All those yeye stereotypes)... You and your parents would be looking down on CS students calling them all sorts of derogatory names, saying they will end up as phone repairers on the streets. Back then, A child in the average Nigerian home can't say he wants to study CS without getting instantly rebuked by his parents just because of the same stereotype. That was how my dad refused me to study my CS five years ago after secondary school. Instead he forced me to go study pharmacy, just because he wants to use me to brag to his friends who's children are also medical doctors and pharmacists. Now I'm a drop out because I couldn't continue the useless course and he's being blaming me even since. Rubbish... And I'm even sure you never had passion for medicine, you only wanted to study it just to look good to the society and your parents...

OP just continue, whether med-tech or just tech. There is no way you would continue learning from now to February 25th 2023 election day that you wouldn't have grabbed a lot of knowledge. ASUU strike isn't going any where for now, as Buhari isn't going on another term therefore he doesn't care if students forfeit their education. So just continue the Internship. 2 Likes |

There's no point telling people Tech is not for them, who are interested will stay and others will either move to something else. I know many programmers who dropped out from coding to QA, DevOps and other things. Programming is not 100% of Tech, but the likes of NotLikeAKing, TastelessFriedPussy and dodgefraud are not informed so they act negative to others , I don't know if it's insecurity, but it's sure immature as hell. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Stick to your field, at least there you are cossetted and worshipped but here in Tech, its a field for pioneers, adventurers and the brave heart...Like the wild wild west ,It's for those with passion, hunger for success especially when they have nothing and you think your medical degree gives you a hall pass? f**k no. You're going to get crushed and broken, don't say you weren't warned. |
