Programming / Re: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by avalon7(m): 8:50am On May 16, 2022 |
yusman14:It truly depens on two factors : 1. Your Budget 2. Your usage If possible then have i5 with 8 gigs of ram or more and and an SSD and it'll serve you well for years to come. If not possible go for i3 with 8 gigs ram with an SSD. There is a huge difference between the performance of an SSD laptop and that of an HDD laptop. You can also go for the ryzen equivalent of an i3 or i5 with an SSD and 8 gig + of ram. Ryzen laptop are relatively cheaper than intel. If you're on a tight budget then you can go with the spec you stated above but expect some lags here and there. |

Fr4nk: Starting young is definitely an advantage. Are you in college already? If you aren't then you can pick a related course like computer science or maths/statistics. Nigerian universities will probably not teach you most of what you need to get a job so you should do a lot of self learning while studying. Just be sure that data science is what you'd like to do. 1 Like |

SARSCoV2: Hearsay and rumours? The angry mob filmed the gruesome murder and had the guts to post it online and you call that hearsay and rumours? They should be arrested first before conducting any yeye investigation. There is enough evidence to show they committed murder. Their reason is IRRELEVANT. |
Programming / Re: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by avalon7(m): 5:36pm On May 12, 2022 |
Fr4nk: C++ is famous for being the hardest language to learn, run from it. For web development since you already learnt python you are already leaning towards backend web development and for that you'd have to learn any of the popular frameworks (flask/Django). You'll also need to have some knowledge of HTML, CSS and JS. Java is a powerful all purpose language and it's a lot faster than python hence it could come in handy in some ML and AI uses cases. Just like python, it is an object oriented programming language but it can be run anywhere using the JVM while python can't. "Java developer" is the #1 job on Glassdoor.com. Java is like a big brother to python. If you've mastered python and you're good at statistical and logical reasoning then perhaps you can venture into data science. You may need to gain some other skills like excel, SQL, version control (Git) etc. Note! Most data science jobs are not entry level, do some research. My advice to you would be : Don't just go learning stuff you may never even need, decide on what area of programming you would like to practice and learn what you need as you go. Just Google "Roadmap to <your choice> and you'll find what you need. Good luck 3 Likes |

Politics / Re: UK Won't Grant Asylum To Violent Members Of Pro-Biafra Groups Like IPOB by avalon7(m): 7:57am On May 06, 2022 |
brightalo1010:Please show me where kanu ordered the killing of law enforcement agencies and the burning of Lagos airport. How many people have ipob killed for not abiding by the sit at home and what are their names? Fulani herdsmen and boko haram have claimed responsibility for several killings, abducted 100s of children, attacked the Nigerian armed forces, attacked entire villages, installed their own government in certain parts of Nigeria and your president still refers to them as "FIGHTERS". IPOB has done none of these things but yet the Nigerian government was very quick to prescribe them as a terrorist group. This is simply a result of the inherent hate towards Biafrans and the discrimination they face which is the the reason for the agitation in the first place. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The Nigerian government has finally archived what they've been trying to do. By orchestrating several violent activities in the south east and pinning it on ipob. Has ipob actually come out claim any of these "violent acts". 1 Like |

justAman: Pick one! Have a set path and work towards it. If you don't have a background in computer science, mathematics or engineering I'd advise you go with software development. It's more accommodating to self taught individuals. Most data science jobs are not entry level, they usually require a bachelor's degree or even an MSC |

Extrastiv01: This story brings back horrible memories, believe me bro I've been there but i didn't get to the point of using other people's money tho but i realized i was getting close and i had to do something about it. In my 4th year in the university i lost my school fees, house rent and course registration money to bet, totalling over 300k. It always starts the way yours did, you win ones and then you're hooked like a crack addict. I have been able to move past my gambling addiction and i think you can if you can the the following. 1. You need to accept the fact that what has happened has happened, you're never getting that money back, the more you try to recover the more you'll loose, it's an endless cycle and before you know it you're considering jumping of a bridge 2. You need to realise that you can never solve your live problems with gambling. If it was that easy there wouldn't be so many betting platforms. These people are getting rich by taking money from people like you. 3. Get something doing! Most people are pushed into gambling because of needs and they believe gambling is the way. The moment i stopped gambling that was when i started noticing all the available means of earing money and believe me my life has been better ever since. 4. Stay clear from this environments, if you have friends that gamble too cut them off! If you can do just this four things i promise you will come out of this stronger. ONE THING YOU NEED TO REMEMBER IS THAT NO MATTER HOW BAD THINGS MIGHT SEEM NOW IT CAN ALWAYS GET WORSE IF YOU DON'T STOP NOW! GOOD LUCK 5 Likes 1 Share |

7 out of the 9 degrees you listed are useless, what did your u intend to do with a sociology degree. There was no way you could have built a rewarding career with any of those degrees. I think financial literacy should be taught in secondary schools so students are guided when selecting what courses they want to study 1 Like |

Which laptop is the best specs for coding?? Within budget of 100-150K plsHp. But I don't think you can get a good laptop for 150k except you can get a good fairly used one. If you're serious with programming, your laptop should come with at least an intel i3 processor or better, 4g ram or better, 1355x768 screen resolution or better, and good battery life. You can get a regular HDD laptop if you're just starting but if you have the extra bucks you should get an SSD laptop. SSD laptops are 3 times faster than their HDD counterparts but cost almost twice as much |
