There a lot of difference between Nigeria and Dubai. Dubai is homogeneous while Nigeria is heterogeneous in nature. Religion and ethnicity is our major problem in this British contraption called Nigeria.

Dubai is NOT homogeneous o... They have Sunni and Shi'a there. They have just decided to live above that

That was what happened... the sister narrated what happened on live radio this morning.

Zaynab was not aware of any additional luggage in her name. this is a cartel and they have people at the destination ariports.

in addition, it was the father who went back to the airport to find out the people on duty the day his family travelled, the relevant govt. agencies took over the investigation from the father.


Lol! Hogwash...So any Tom, Dick and Harry can now go to the airport, find out who was on shift last week then the government will now on their own take it up? That girl travelled with the Tramadol. Maybe in error but she travelled with it. No Jupiter can dispute that. They should test her blood for traces of Tramadol and I bet you they'd find it. She should face the penalty of her crime. The Saudi visa clearly states that the penalty for drug trafficking is death
Business / Re: Is Uber/taxify Still Booming Like Before? I Need Advice. by airsaylongcon: 10:57am On Apr 30, 2019
elbucho:
My take:

I believe it's still lucrative. The issue however is that many drivers who are not vehicle owners have learnt a new system. It's called Uber/taxify offline. When they accept rides, they approach the passenger and request to go to the same destination at a bargainable price. The result is that "on the system", they had very few rides, but in reality, they may be making a killing.

I think car owners should invest in tracking technology that captures total distance covered by the vehicles they give to drives operating these taxi services. If the total distance covered is unrealistically higher than the distance summary reported by Uber/ taxify, just know that "your sales girl has taken over the business"

The only business that I know of which you can launch and hand over to a third party and which cannot be hacked (so far) is the betting business. So you can consider opening a bet shop.

You said it all! That "offline" ish the drivers do is a killer to the owners! While I believe most vehicles are tracked, I believe the owners used the barest minimum tracking technology were they use SMS to query the location of the vehicle. What is best suited is a full live tracking solution where the vehicle updates its current location at regular intervals to a server similar to Google map. That way you can not only know the vehicle's location but also the distance it has covered. And for a tech savvy person, all of this can be gotten for almost free.

Boss, you need to read more about,Mary Jane Veloso?

One allegation against the defendants is that they recruited her without the proper paperwork — the other more serious one is that they recruited her and trafficked Veloso purposefully.

Others are gone,but she is is still alive because. They found out that she was being used without her consent. She never knew what she got is drugs.

Same with our sister,one more baggage was added to her checked in baggage’s. Let assume say kassala no burst,once she didn’t pick the luggage,it will be returned to the airline office and the cartels will easily have it.

Are you kidding me? shocked Baggage handlers now have access to airline systems such that they can generate a baggage tag in her name? You people should think well na

U are asking wat dey stand to gain..once she passes through they will identify her at the airport, their agents there will either steal her luggage or get it any other way possible.

U people really think through your anuses. The bag was randomly picked at Aminu Kano International Airport. The syndicate didn't know the girl o! Drugs planted and she flew to Jeddah or Riyadh. Then in the Kingdom the agents will identify her once she passes through. Identify who? Someone they don't know? Or identify the bag that is probably carried by many other Nigerians on the flight? Think na!

Iron Mike Tyson was a fighter/killer and not a good boxer. He could not fight beyond 8 rounds he will be exerted and wishing the fight could end. Though I enjoyed all his fight, he always fight to kill no room for entertainment or unnecessary prolonged fight like the real heavy weight boxers.

But u know boxing then was about being killed or kill your opponent? Those guys didn't chicken out of fights with broken toes or failed drug tests? They got in the ringed and punched the opponent unconscious

Education / Re: Difference Between "AM" And "I'M" by airsaylongcon: 5:26pm On Apr 29, 2019
There is no blunder worse than substituting Am for I am (or I'm). For me, it is the greatest grammatical blunder ever. When a yahoo boy says he's from UK or US and he's typing "am" instead of "I'm", it's a dead giveaway!

I can tolerate "weather" in place of "whether" but not "Am" in place of "I'm"

Well done OP

progeek37:

No! The total number of possible subscribers remains the same..."0803", "0813" etc are just prefixes.
Note: The prefix just makes the numbers in it different from the numbers in other prefixes.
As we know when the number of subscribers reaches the total, the network providers will respond by introducing another prefix.

Exactly why I asked. I love your question though. Very brain scratching although I'm sure I can solve it if I get to it. I'd just be lazy and get it done with excel.

Is 0813 000 0000 a valid number though? How about 0813 999 9999?

Without commercial backing open source technologies begin a slow descent. Perl, haskell, ocaml,lisp are niche cuz of no serious enterprise backing not because they're aren't excellent Languages. Open jdk will always lag behind Oracle jdk which drive more quality conscious enterprises into adopting Oracle jdk and oiling Oracle's palms. Java is dead. I'd advice any1 to consider c# or Python or at worst a JVM lang. Oracle has hamstrung d language.

I dunno if I agree with your assertions. Oracle took over MySQL and even if they plan on killing it, MariaDB as a fork is thriving and doing great. I forsee OpenJDK going the route of MariaDB or a formidable fork of Java arising. I don't think Java is dead. Not Yet. Not with its widespread use compared to the very niche use cases of the functional programming languages you mentioned.

He can use Java too for web dev (Java EE). It's not just so popular. But Java Web devs command more. Java is simply regarded as a more mature advanced language than PHP,perl,python,ruby. It's a big boy language. It's match are scala and closure but not Python and co. But with Oracle charging for Java ... Future looks cloudy.

With OpenJDK doesn't that keep java still available for the foreseeable future?

Enjoy

I'm not saying you should not charge for them. By all means do. But be open about it. Everyone that has asked for a price has received a "chat me. Up" response which is very bad for your business. It suggests you have something to hide. Open pricing is the beginning of transparency for any business. I build portable home media servers for people and I can boldly say that starting price is ₦36,000 for the very basic, entry level server. This price can vary though depending on what configuration the customer requires.

Yes but a master roll will exist.
It is from this master roll copies were made which were then distributed to consumers.
I think VHS tapes can still undergo the HD transformation process.
I will have to do a little Google search to confirm first.

I'd follow you up on this please. Growing up, I didn't watch a lot of the old classics. Watched Violated part one recently. The colour and sound was horrible. But I loved the Nostalgia.

I think it has to do with the original tape undergoing digital processing, touch ups and then storage.
Sadly I doubt the original film rolls will still exist and the process required is something Nigerians are yet to learn.
