Politics / Re: FG To Spend ₦30 Billion On Katsina Airport Upgrade by AZeD1(m): 5:12pm On Jan 27, 2021
Leslie12000:


Katsina airport total passenger traffic :
2017 : 2425
2018 : 6028
So if the airport makes 10k per passenger, it's has still make under 10M and they still want to spend more money on it?

Where is the sense in that?

Nuttella:
I still will not drink alcohol.

When the bible says "lead us not into temptation" (Matthew 6:13) it knew that from drinking alcohol, we gradually become drunk and drunkenness is a sin according to my bible(Ephesians 5:18, Galatians 5:21).

God is not an author of confusion. People are just interpreting bible they want it suits them.
Gluttony is a sin and it's from eating you become a glutton so why bother eating at all?

So massive censorship have turned to Church and home of big techs right? The global censorship, it is not just Trump alone oh. The kind of censorship going on YouTube alone is med.

This is what a feudalist state can cause too many people, it can make you lose control of the choice of words you make.
Lobbying or bribery and corruption is also in the constitution right?
Nobody can take your freedom of speech away from you. You have the right to say what you like in your own home, you don't have that right to say what you like in another man's home.

If you go into a church to preach about Islam and you are rightly chased away, would you say the church has taken your right to free speech away? Nope because you can preach about Islam but just not inside a church.

When the First Amendment is being destroyed by Big Tech, the rule of law is doing great!
The First Amendment is basically for the government, not private companies. You DO NOT have free speech in a private company.
The First Amendment applied only to state actors.


When courts refuse to enforce the law, the rule of law is doing great!

The Courts do not enforce the law, it's not their job. It's civics 001.


When the Supreme Court refuses to defend the Constitution, the rule of law is doing great!
The work of the Court is interpretation of the law. When the Supreme Court makes a decision, it is more or less defending the constitution. That the judgement doesn't go your way doesn't mean otherwise.


You should probably go and take a civics class before you show your ignorance to the world.

Is there any service canada in the airport. so i can get my SIN there ? is there any number to call?

If not, how strict is the quarantine law, can i drive to service canada and get my SIN, then go to my residence and begin my quarantine.

I just need to get the SIN quickly
You can be fined for breaking quarantine and even if you want to break quarantine laws, the last place you want to go is a government office.

Brother I'm not crossing anywhere oh... I'm not mad like that. Actually I have a name withheld who works directly with high commission and NGO affiliated with Canada Immigration. The NGO is the only organisation in power to certify an individual to be granted asylum in Canada and grants the visa and resident permit etc. They serve as a referee to the person(s). Fortunately one of the people in charge has a close relationship with me.

So hence my question, if anyone has gone through the asylum route, what's life like there after landing and several months after. And what the construction industry is like for a graduate professional immigrant?

Also regarding the test for covid before flying how is it done please, how can one get it and is it really a must? I'm very scared of it!

Topaz my guy grin. Allow myself to be deceived as how? By now u suppose don know say I don't just talk for decoration. Do you think Trump was playing around when he said THE FIGHT IS JUST ABOUT TO START? He meant every word of it. Alternate Electors have been selected in those 4 Swing States, approved and chosen by the GOP led Legislature, which makes it 100% legal

https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2020/12/14/trump-campaign-assembling-alternate-electors-in-key-states-in-far-fetched-attempt-to-overturn-election/

But my own is Trump should stop playing nice and just declare Martial Law now, since as the POTUS he has said the ELECTIONS ARE UNDER PROTEST. The Military will move in very soon based on the Elections Interference EO Trump signed in 2018.
There's no such thing as alternate slate of electors. Valid votes carry the seal of the Secretary of State which the so called alternate electors don't have.

After 50+ losses in court you still think there's a court in America that would help Trump?

Foreign Affairs / Re: Missouri Joins 'fight' Alongside Texas To Challenge Election Before Supreme Cour by AZeD1(m): 2:14am On Dec 12, 2020
Openbusiness:
The SCOTUS will hear the case tomorrow. I expect the hearing will go well, and they will most likely suspend the Electoral College voting pending the resolution of the case. And when Trump wins the case, it means the SCOTUS will cancel the Electoral College votes for the 4 States, which means both candidates will be officially below 270. And this means the House of Representatives will be the ones to vote to choose the President. Once it gets to this stage, game over, Trump wins automatically because Republicans have more votes than Democrats, 29 / 21. Even if there are some RINO Judas', Trump will still get the majority votes needed to win. As it stands the RINO Red Governors among those Swing States are already under fire and ratings have seriously dropped and are at risk of losing re-election.
Case denied by the Supreme Court.

Even Trump's 3 appointees denied the motion to hear the case because it was foolish in the first place.
At what point do you guys realize the law suits were a ploy by Trump to raise money?

cixak95212:


I dont want to start going into a battle of microservices vs monolith, but your analogy is flawed. I hope you understand how legacy codes work, and if a coy has been running a monolith for a long time, it's often a very difficult task to switch. AWS has 50% of their api documentation in XML and the rest in newer sdks . . does it mean, we should use XML these days? For that fact that 1 - 10 companies switched from microservices to monolith, doesnt make it better, as there are x10 that number that switched from monolith to microservices. You're only paying attention via one-lane to favour ur argument. Microservices were created to solved problems that came with monolith especially during scaling and not the other way around.
The newer guy is often better although it comes at a cost which is not limited to expensive cost of operations.
Secondly Nosql has passed the era of "unstructured data only". Knock yourself out https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/data-model-design


p.s.; NGINX cannot handle 500k request, except you configure a cluster. You're defaulted to under 100k out of the box. What is a cluster? Microservice-biased or monolith-biased, lol hahaha grin grin grin. The thing i say I say from firsthand experience and not online blogs.

1) You do know that cluster has nothing to do with architecture right? You can have a cluster of monoliths right...

2) I'm pretty sure nairaland as is today is a monolith and it works very well.

NL say she has 2.5M members, if that is anything to go by then indeed it has to be a microservice.
1) Shopify is at least 50 times bigger than Nairaland and it's still a monolith so what makes you think you need microservices? If you remove duplicate users (those with multiple accounts) and people who do not visit again how many do you think are members?

2) Sharding a DB from the start? How are you going to do it, what parameters are you going to use to shard?

3) NoSql DBs are good for unstructured data but Nairaland's data is structured. You have users, posts, comments and messages.
A user can have many posts, comments, messages (PM).
Posts, Comments and Messages belong to a user. This is classical SQL with makes RDBMS the obvious choice.


Examples of companies that have gone the route of microservices only to go back to monoliths.

Always remember premature optimization is the root of all evils

They do. It's written at the bottom of the form you fill for your Ontario residents card and drivers licence. Provided you're using it to jump licence grades, it will be collected. When I was doing Ontario residents card, I already checked the box that asks if you have a foreign drivers license before I read that it will be collected. I then told them I wasn't with it and they asked me to make sure I bring it while doing my drivers licence.
You do not have to surrender your Nigerian license when you get a driver's license in Ontario.
I still have my Nigerian license with me, I took someone to get their license two days ago in Ontario and they still have their drivers license.

You cannot have a driver's license and an Ontario photo card at the same time. The reason why your license was collected was because you applied for an Ontario photo card.

Foreign Affairs / Re: OPINION: How Donald Trump Will Be Re-elected In January 2020 by AZeD1(m): 3:46am On Nov 30, 2020
RandomGuy48:

It's a little more complicated than that. The Supreme Court did not say it's illegal for an elector to be faithless. What they said was that states have the ability to make it so that it's illegal for an elector to be faithless. A lot of states have such laws but not all of them.

However, faithless electors are quite rare. After all, the electors are chosen to be people who will want to vote for their pledged candidate anyway. People who are faithless electors do so not to try to change the outcome of the election, but just to make some kind of political statement without actually changing the outcome. An election outcome actually being changed by faithless electors is extraordinarily unlikely.
And three of the swing states have laws to replace the votes cast by faithless electors.

Openbusiness:
You still don't understand what my original post is about. This is not a matter of Trump needing 270 Electoral votes to win. This is about the both candidates having a shortfall to 270 Electoral votes. If you remove the votes of all the several Swing States being contested by Court litigations, both candidates are under 270. If there are sufficient faithless Electors, then none of them will reach 270, which means the Elections are indecisive. An indecisive election means the power to decide who becomes President will go to the House of Representatives. Each State House of Reps has 1 Vote. Republicans have 29 States, and Democrats have 21. It is expected the State Reps will vote along party lines, which means Trump will automatically win if it comes to this. That's why Trump said if Biden can get the Electoral College Votes, then he will leave. But if Biden doesn't get it, Trump will win. Considering the extent of voter fraud and that many States are under dispute, there will most likely be sufficient Faithless Electors. Even the Democrats are afraid of this reality. It coul happen and I believe it will. Only time will tell.
Stop showing your ignorance.

1) The Supreme Court has ruled against faithless electors. It's illegal for an elector to be faithless. In Arizona, Michigan and Nevada, failure to vote as pledged cancels the vote and replaces the elector. So forget that idea of swing states helping Trump via faithless electors.


2) The speaker of the house is a democrat. She has to call for a meeting before the election is certified by the house. If she doesn't call for the meeting, she becomes acting President.

3) Pennsylvania and Nevada have already certified their elections for Biden which means Democratic electors have already been chosen.

4) Like so many people have told you, the Supreme Court is an appellate Court and you cannot introduce new evidence. Even if the Supreme Court by mistake allows you to introduce new evidence, it would send the case back to the lower court for retrial.

You might not find this info elsewhere.... But that is it.

Also, it might get to a stage where it becomes necessary for the above-named people to proof their innocence in their association with some 'chief land border smugglers' who formed part of the major sponsors of the #endsars hoodlums who had no other aim but to force the border securities to flee their posts and they would operate freely.
