TV/Movies › Why It’s Insane To Pay For The Channels You Watch by AjalaJ(op): 3:14pm On Dec 14, 2017
Google, Facebook, YouTube, Wikipedia, etc, and local TV stations are free because some pay for them. Advertisers.

They let you use their platforms free, and they get rewarded by paid adverts.

If you need to pay for an online service, then you shouldn’t be harassed by adverts you don’t solicit for.

The premise is simply, use something free and get adverts pushed at you.

Pay for it, and use it free of any adverts. This is one thing that has contributed to the popularity of Wikipedia and WhatsApp. Even when WhatsApp is finally monetized, you may choose to continue using it free and get ads, or pay for it and not get ads. The same is true of an email service like Gmail.

I met a highly intelligent man who doesn’t pay for GoTV, CONSAT, DAARSAT, StarTimes, etc. He told me: “Guy. I can’t pay money to watch TV channels. That’s mad. That’s insane, men.”

I thought about it for a long time, and realized that the intelligent man is clean correct,”

We pay monthly subscription for, say, DsTV and GoTV, and they advertise to us via many channels on the decoders. Even anytime you press your remote control to see current programs titles, you see adverts. If you’re scrolling through channels, you see adverts on the list. Even those who pay to put their private channels there also advertise.

The reality: WE’VE BEEN DUPED INTON PAYING TO WATCH ADVERTS. This is a big-time rip-off.

When we pay for what we watch, then why should they still advertise to us on those channels (collecting money from advertisers as well)? Rather they should let us pay for decoders and watch those channels free, since they bombard us with too many ads.

Some shalloww-sensed individuals may not see the logic in this – just as they don’t see any stupidity in wasting your money on callerz/rinback tunez you don’t don’t hear. Highly educated people can be so naïve.

Celebrities › How You Can Tell Is Someone Is Jealous Of You by AjalaJ(op): 2:21pm On Dec 01, 2017
How can you tell if someone is jealous of you?


You’ll find it easy to spot an envious person after reading this.

All of us have some type of envy in our life. It’s normal. It’s okay as long as you’re aware of it and correct it.

But there are people who envy more than others.

Envy is when the person is using you as a measuring stick for how good they feel about themselves.

Whenever someone feels like they're higher up than you, they gauge you by how well they're doing compared to you in various areas of your life.

These people can feel good when you're down low, when you're not doing so good, when you don't bring your a-game, when you're feeling bad, when you're feeling needy, empty, lonely.

These people who feel higher than you may come around and be more attentive to you and start doing good when you are down low.

But, as soon as you’re getting better, get a new job, make more money, find a new great relationship, in any area spiritually, physically, emotionally. If you start to excel outside of that little box that you were in before, then that person may begin to pull away. They may begin to to do things that they normally did not do before - give you the silent treatment, withdraw, be more unavailable, not answering your phone calls, not returning your emails,… They won’t be there for you when you make a party because you found a new job, they won’t answer your call to hear how happy you are with your new love relationship.

> When a person is not happy for you, when you do good, they are envious.

> When a person start to pull away, when you do good, they are envious.

> When a person start to make (subtly or not) negative remarks around you, when you do good, they are envious.

> When a person invalidate the object of your happiness (new job, new lover, your new weight), when you do good, they are envious.

Whenever this happens, you know that that person is envious/jealous.

Education › 39 Things About Life I Wish I Had Known 10 Years Ago by AjalaJ(op): 3:57am On Nov 22, 2017
About two years ago I started a list called “Things I wish I had known earlier” in my journal.

I initially came up with 25 lessons about life, career, love, and relationships. Things I’ve learned from mentors, books, friends, readers, etc.
I created the list for myself because I realized that I forgot important lessons at the same rate I learned new lessons.

And when I shared the list on my blog for the first time, a lot of people thought it was useful. Two years later, I still read the list a few times a year. Plus, I added new lessons I’ve learned recently.


Here’s the latest edition. I hope you find it useful.

1. Struggle Is Good
Never say “I can’t take it anymore.” Say “Bring it on!”

2. Don’t Complain
Complaining is the biggest waste of time there is. Either do something about it, and if you can’t, shut up about it.

3. Always Strive For Something
When you wake up in the morning, think about what you’re trying to achieve. Humans need a vision to wake up every morning. After you picture your vision, go after it. Every day.

4. Spend Time With People You Love
That’s your family and best friends. If you don’t have a family, create one. Most people in life are only visitors. Family is for life.

5. Don’t Start A Relationship If You’re Not In Love
I’ve done this more than once. You kind of like someone and think: “We might as well give it a shot.” Not a good idea. You’re either in love, or you are not. Don’t fool yourself. It’s not fair to you and the other person.

6. Exercise Daily
A healthy body is where you have to start everything in life. If you can’t build a healthy and strong body, what can you build in life?

7. Keep A Journal
No, keeping a journal is not for children. It helps you to become a better thinker and writer. “I don’t want to be a writer” you might think. Well, how many emails and texts do you send a day? Everybody is a writer.

8. Be Grateful
Say ‘thank you’ to everyone and everything. “Thank you for this beautiful day.” “Thank you for your email.” “Thank you for being there for me.”

9. Don’t Care About What People Think
We all die in the end, do you really think it matters what people think of you?

10. Take More Risks
Don’t be such a wimp. Seriously.

11. Pick An Industry, Not A Job
If you want to become good at something, you need to spend years and years doing that. You can’t do that if you hop from industry to industry. Pick an industry you love and start at the bottom. You will find the perfect role for you eventually.

12. Lead The Way
When you find yourself in a situation where everyone looks at each other, it’s time for you to lead. You‘re a leader when you decide to become one. There’s no initiation or a title. Just a decision.

13. Things Are Not What They Seem
If something sounds too good to be true, it is. A little skepticism never hurts.

14. Money Is Not The Most Important Thing
You have to train yourself not to care about money and focus on providing value instead. Also, don’t become too dependent on the stuff you own — otherwise, the stuff will own you.

15. Be Nice
I don’t mean you should be a pushover. You can be someone that doesn’t take shit and be nice about it. Just don’t insult people, think you’re better than them, or act like an idiot.

16. Strain Yourself
Take on challenging things in your life. No strain no gain.

17. Get Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable
Life, work, relationships, challenges. It’s all uncomfortable. So get comfortable with that.

18. Learn Every Day
You’ve got to train your brain to stay alert. You don’t have to read a book a day to learn every day. Learn from your mistakes. Learn from the people around you — be open to what they can teach you.

19. Rest Before You Are Tired
Even if you love your job, and every day seems like a holiday, you need to take time to rest. You’re a human and not an android, never forget that.

20. Don’t Judge
Just because people make different choices than you, they are not stupid. Also, you don’t know everything about people, so don’t judge them — help them.

21. Value Yourself
“Who am I to say something?” Well, you’re a human being who wakes up every morning and contributes something to this world. You have the right to say and do anything you want. Recognize that.

22. Have Patience
Rome wasn’t built in a day, right? But that’s too obvious. Rome also wasn’t built in a year, or even two years, or even five years. Some things take decades to make happen. How’s that for your perspective?

23. Think About Others
Just be mindful, that’s all. We all have families, bills to pay, and our own issues. Don’t always make everything about yourself.

24. Give Without Expecting Something In Return
Don’t keep score. You will become a bitter person if you do that. Give solely for the joy of giving. If you get something in return, great, if you don’t, great.

25. There’s No End Game
We, as a species, just are. Don’t try to figure it all out. Enjoy your journey.

26. Enjoy Small Things
I like clichés because they are true. Especially this one. You know why? Everyone says they know it, but no one lives up to it. They just chase big things.

27. Don’t Take Yourself Seriously
Yeah, yeah, you’re an individual, and people have to take you seriously, I get it. But at the end of the day, we’re all a bunch of ants trying to chase the same things. Lighten up.

28. Take On More Responsibilities
Sounds paradoxical (like many things in life), but believe me on this one. The more responsibilities you have, the more purpose you have in life. Just don’t get overwhelmed. You’re not that important.

29. Don’t Blame People
What’s the point? Do you want to punish them? You don’t do that to people. Also, don’t blame yourself — you’re only human.

30. Never Look Back Too Long
Reflecting on the past is only good for one thing: Learning.

31. It’s Okay To Be Sad
Life’s not always great. We all know that. But why do we pretend we’re okay while we’re not? Because we’re too proud. If you’re not doing well, admit it. Now, you can work on getting better.

32. Avoid Negative Situations And People
You can’t underestimate the impact others have on you. Get away from negativity at all cost.

33. Invest In Yourself
Skills are worth more than a good job, career, money, and even a reputation.Why? The world always needs people who can do something well. Be that person.


34. Rely On Yourself
Because it’s the best feeling in the world to know you can figure things out by yourself. But don’t overdo it. Ask for help when you need it.

35. Don’t Listen To “No”
The best things in life only happened after people heard “no.” Did they quit? No.


36. Buy A House
A lot of wealthy people say they never buy a property to live in it because it’s not an investment. They’re right. But a lot of people still don’t care because they like to own the house they live in. I agree. And if you move on, rent it out. It’s an investment.

37. Hold Yourself To A High Standard
When you do something, do it well or not at all. Always strive for outperforming yourself.


38. Create Something
Not to leave a legacy, you won’t be here to see it anyway, but to be of use. Make music, write a book, build a table, anything. You’ll feel good about yourself, plus you give something back to people to use or enjoy.

39. Take Action
Don’t just sit there, do something. Without action, there is no outcome.


You might know a lot. But just like Socrates, who believed he knew nothing, you and I also know nothing at all.
So we have to keep learning.

Travel › Is Nigerian Passport Useless? by AjalaJ(op): 4:34am On Nov 12, 2017
Why is the Nigerian passport so useless?


The Nigerian International Passport is not as useless as it might seem, but it’s not very useful either. As some have already rightly noted, for Nigerians who live outside of Nigeria, our passport is our identity and security, and without it we’ll all be on the next plane home.

That said, the value of international passports have been ranked according to how many countries you can visit with your passport without a visa.

Nigeria ranks in 80th place out of 91. You can visit 45 countries without a visa, most of them African countries. So it’s not completely useless.

Crime › Why Lagosians Prefer Crossing Busy Highways To Using Foot Bridges by AjalaJ(op): 11:05pm On Oct 16, 2017
Lagos, Nigeria: Why will Lagosians rather cross the busy highway than use the pedestrian bridge?


There are a number of reasons for this.

1) Impatience: Sometimes climbing the footbridge means walking back a little distance. Most people simply see this as a greater inconvenience than getting hit by a speeding truck.

2)Fear of heights.

3)Lack of trust in the structure of the bridge: Some of those bridges look like death traps, eg the bridges on Herbert Macauley way. You actually cannot blame people for being afraid of falling 10 feet into onrushing traffic.

4) "L'effet Mouton": Also known as the herd mentality. It takes a lot of mental courage to use a bridge when 30 other people are trying to cross the same road without it. There is the slight pull of "do I think I am smarter than them" that occurs when one decides to do things differently.

5) Insecurity on the bridges: Most of the bigger pedestrian bridges are home to vagrants and all sorts of people and can be especially scary at night or during the rush hour.

6) Poor Orientation/ illiteracy/ Pseudo-literacy

There are other reasons. I think a good solution to this problem would be a good sensitization program that takes people's legitimate and crazy seeming fears into cognizance.

Also some of these issues like insecurity and rickety bridges should also be tackled to ensure a good user experience on the bridge. This could be the best form of orientation as a user with a good experience on the bridge can become the best advocate for it.

What are the most useful programming languages to learn to get a job in 2018?

OK , let's cover it :

For web , I think there is no better choice than JavaScript . Nodejs for backend , React js for frontend

Mobile Apps : Swift and Java , Kotlin are already preety famous so you can go with them . But I believe you are lazy like most of us , so you need something that covers both iOS and android . OK then here comes , React Native which helps you write native apps on both iOS and android

with JavaScript . So react native could be a good choice for you if you wanna go for app development

Desktop Apps : Obviously c# is a good choice but we are lazy na ? So we have Electron which helps you write desktop apps with JavaScript . So you can either go with c# or electron. It's upon you

Games : C# and c++ aren't going anywhere here . Have a good look at game engines like Unity .
Happy Learning , Happy Coding !!!

Politics › Why You Can’t Make Nigeria Better by AjalaJ(op): 1:23am On Oct 07, 2017
How do I make Nigeria better?


Answer:

Get a permanent VISA and immigrate to another country, the streets and burial grounds are full of people who wanted to change Nigeria. You may have good intentions and ideas, but those who would deceive you, dupe you, mislead you and feed you to your enemies out number you. To make a change in Nigeria, you would have to deprive some greedy people of their billions of dollars, ergo you need to step on some toes, when a BILLIONIER soaked in corrupt practices and surrounded by thugs and assassins tries to step on your toes, you and your family might not survive. I believe president Muhamadu Buhari wants to make a better Nigeria, but how many people like him are in service today?

NB: I know I would be insulted for my frank comments and I don't care Nigerians tend to be pissed on Quora when you say the truth, I AM NO STRANGER TO INSULTS AND THE REALITY OF NIGERIA.

Business › Why Do You Use A Personal Account For Business? by AjalaJ(op): 10:22pm On Sep 30, 2017
Question: Why do you use a personal account for business?

Answer: Nope. We use our corporate account for business. Serious businesses use corporate accounts, which scammers do not like to use. This is because a corporate account comes with a high level of security and holders are easily traced when they dupe others.

We use our corporate account for receiving payments and for making Instant Transfers of cash to our customers, no matter the banks they use.

When we were paying N150 per transaction, we used our corporate account. And now that we are paying N50 per transaction, we also use our corporate account. This calls to mind some stingy exchangers who use their personal accounts to pay customers because they want to save N50. This is a shame.

You buy Bitcoin at 330/$ and sell at N370/$, and you are still using a personal account to pay (Zenith to Zenith, GTBank to GTBank, etc) because you do not want to pay N50. What an ignominious shame!

It is common quickly develop trust in those who use corporate accounts for business, compared with those who use personal accounts.

HOWEVER, there are rare cases in which Access Bank may have network problems, and during these times, any money transferred my get hanged and delayed too much. This is the only reason that can make us use a personal account to pay. It is better to pay with a personal account, than to delay payments to any customers (we hate delaying customers’ money).

That means, when there is a problem with our corporate account banking provider, we use our personal account to pay, to avoid delaying our customers and we explain the reason to them.

PAYEER department: The lady in charge of our PAYEER department uses her personal account to do the business. This is the only exception and our customers understand this. Our PAYEER department is part of ITUGLOBAL.
