Can that thing kill ?

Come let me fire one at you from very close range....let's verify if it can or cannot kill

Shomek:
Stop asking these questions if you don't want wahala

I don't get. Wahala? You want this to go that way?

Shomek:
Sorry for that

How old are you now ?

Still doesn't answer the question. What/which of my posts come across as bragging? Since reading that your statement, I've heavily reduced my comments on programming section before others see my comment/opinion as bragging. So back to the main question: "What/which of my posts come across as bragging"

As for how old I am, I'm old enough

Shomek:
Okay

In a response on one of your threads, you said "He's an old man" and "he brags a lot". I don't really care about being referred to as "old", because it's a statement of fact. I'm older than most tech folks here (I wrote my WAEC in the late 90s). However bragging? Can you clarify that?

I'm talking about this response: https://www.nairaland.com/8074532/how-old-when-started-coding#129718492

Most bank staff are absolutely corrupt only few are God fearing

They are a subset of Nigerians. They exhibit our behaviour

There was this international job I got. After two months, they fired all their staff and replaced them with AI

They stated that it was a financial issue that prompted them to use AI.

Crossover.com?

Quest7777:

The Ajaokuta & Delta Steel Companies, if fully revived can put Nigeria on the path to Industrialisation.
But unfortunately they can't.

DSC was all fine when Oyibo were in charge, but things started going haywire immediately Nigerians took over.

Things like this make me wonder if blacks are cursed or their brains are inferior.

Tell me more

Omoawoke:
Statisense should drop the metrics they use for all this data.
Like, it’s not realistic. We don’t even a data base system. How did they arrive at this?

Really?! We don't have a database of teachers in the country? Are you kidding me?

Free market my ass, no nation leaves the fate of her currency at the mercy of saboteursm in the name of free market.
Millions of Nigerian youth are pure currency speculators who are manipulating naira days and nights

What's the total volume of of Crypto transactions by these "Nigerian youths"? Does it come anywhere near what financial institutions and our politicians do in terms of FX transactions?

Dubetex96:


Crypto currency

It is hilarious reading this. That Crypto is the cause of the weak Naira. When a simple knowledge of economics clearly states otherwise. We are not earning FX as much as we are spending. Fix our production side (whether that's raw crude or finished goods from other manufacturing sector) and dollar scarcity would be history. Crypto has no statistically relevant impact on the availability of USD in this country

olisaEze:
One culture shock foreigners are always going to get here that most Nigerians don’t even know is unique to them, is the ease at which they befriend strangers. Till u make ur intentions known Nigerians will never assume the worst of you. He keeps trying to defend his filming in public, not quite understanding that no one cares!

If allegedly no one cared, he would not have been approached by that young thug. I tell you for free that the "legitimate" government thugs that run that market were fully noting his movements and cared what and where he was shooting

Caleb15:

Who owns GOLDEN TULIP HOTEL

Golden Tulip Hotel is an international brand and definitely not owned by Ken Gbagi. He may own the Warri franchise. But definitely not the brand

tutudesz:
Abovwolovwolo Atighoyowa

What does this abọ vworovworo mean?

Caleb15:

That's the name he uses in is business adventures

As far as I know, Robinson was their father's name.

Uncletony:
I stay in mazoje PTI road, I have never met him but his stories are so terrifying. Built Robinson plaza under high tension wires, built gbagi hotel and cinema directly opposite his fuel station causing huge hold up at PTI junction. Kept lion as a pet, harasses everyone including the governor.man was so powerful!

Is this how they spell Masodje now?

Caleb15:

And Robinson Gbagi, that one threatened to shoot me

How was Robinson related to them?

Kai! How the mighty has fallen. I hope his saner elder brother, Faith Gbagi will take this news kindly

TotoIsGud4boy:
When I was 15/16… me and my friends we used to mod 2go.jar back in the day… fast forward to today? We running the fintech space in Nigeria … + I’ve worked at FAANG and I just go to rave parties and buy my family anything they want.. I’m really young so it’s just quarrel and fights here or there from my girlfriend about why I love cheating so much but she loves me despite my imperfections… should I also add that I have an online business too that gives steady return… rn life becomes very boring.. I miss the days where I was struggling to build stuff… now I’m actively involved in AI research for a startup here in San Francisco… my advice for the newbies is to learn how computers work and build stuff!!!! Don’t be a slave for Anyone.. keep building!

Edit to add: I remember Qtguru from back in the day … his username was different and dude used to look younger and he was a big noob back then. Glad to see he’s doing great…
not going into much details but I used to run a big forum I built with my friend back then but forums went the way of the dodo bird but somehow nairaland has managed to survive… but nairaland traffic will never be like what it was in 2012-2019

I don't think the traffic has dipped much fr then. A lot of 2012-2019 traffic was driven by politics. And not much has changed since then

pweeryambre:
Normaly, most bank App won't allow you transact above one million per day... But I am seeing over 3 milion. How is that possible if these banks don't know a thing or two about it.

Who says you as the owner of the account cannot increase or decrease the default limit?

CluelessMODS:

Are Isrealis white?

Aren't there white Israelis?

omoredia:
Agreement is agreement. Why won't africans understand this? Is working in town better? I don't thinks so

Which one is this nonsense mindset that "Agreement is agreement". If knowledge, information and situation changes, that bloody agreement has to be reviewed. And yes, working in the two is 100 times better than working on a farm in the Negev desert

ceejayluv:

Nairaland readership is not restricted to Nigerians only.

True. But the content is more targeted at Nigerians resident in Nigeria. You write, targeting the majority of your readers. That's why when you go on places like reddit and see ELI5, or IANAL you go and research them as a non-American. Any non-Nigerian that wants to know the meaning of "Kèké Napep" should go and research it

ceejayluv:

Tricycle is a broader term... The specific name is cycle ricksaw or auto ricksaw.
He's not incorrect.

Communication is about passing AND receiving meaning. To the average Nigerian, that thing is called Kèké Napep. OP should have just stuck with the local.term instead of using bombast or being bombastic

GiZcorp:


It can but it will be difficult... I say this because for instance, you can't have two savings accounts in one bank using your BVN, but for Kuda, opay, fairmoney and palmpay you can comfortably have as many accounts as you want provided you have different phone numbers. With this you can actually launder money.. And the level of monitoring of their activities is very poor

This is not true. You can have as many savings accounts as you want

Lol...when you started coding doesn't necessarily corelate with competence. Constant, deliberate practice is what builds competence.

For example, I wrote my first line of code in BASIC over 30 years ago. Today my coding is really bad as I stopped coding in 2013. Not like I was consistently coding before then

Yankee101:
Read my post carefully again and understand it

You said: "Equate population and know why nigeria is close to the bottom".

I am arguing that wealth has nothing to do with population. It has more to do with productivity. Nigeria is at the bottom because we aren't as productive as the others. Not because of our population

Yankee101:
Equate population and know why nigeria is close to the bottom

Population that China has way more than we do. And yet China is on top

segunjack:
can we have different passports for ibo yoruba and hausas so when crime is commited they can say yorua citizen is arrested or ibo or hausa tired of getting lumped together everytime

a possibly easier way could be to allow those that want to go, to go.

lincsnuel:
Most Nigerians are terrible opportunists. They look at a situation, whether good or bad and think about ways to manipulate the situation to their advantage. Where others see a problem, they see an opportunity to exploit. Terrible.

Inherently, being an opportunist isn't a bad thing. The problem arises in the negative exploitation when they could be making loads of legit money from the opportunities by POSITIVELY harnessing them.

Lurdmax10:
But for B1/B2 visa category, no document is checked

Not necessarily true. They do verify statements in your application before the day of the interview

CelestineNelson:
When are they going to start their visa lottery?

We have been ineligible for the DV visa lottery for many years now. Too many Nigerians have japa'd to the US
