Programming / Re: How It Feels Like To Learn Javascript In 2016 by Craigston: 8:20pm On Oct 21, 2016 |
And I've not even started learning jQuery. Angular 2 is out and React is still there. Few years ago someone would have convinced me to learn CoffeeScript. While I was thinking about learning native application development, someone suggested Electron to me (the guys at GitHub made it) and now I hear of React Native. |

purplekayc:Is your system a 64-bit system? Have you enabled 32-bit installs? If you haven't, try running sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386. Then update your sources using sudo apt-get updateand retry the installation. |

C and C++ I need to learn some real bony concepts that require C (a language with little flesh and plenty of bones; ugh, pointers are still killing me). C++, do I need to explain this? I'll need it in school this semester. D This language is described as a nice improvement on C++ (C++ without the warts). It's new and I want to use it for some future side projects. Maybe a compiled language that supports web development and is not as ugly as C will be nice for speedy apps. I'm still researching it. Python Good for rapid prototyping and yet powerful. I want it to be my go-to scripting language besides JavaScript. I also has some useful modules and is actively developed (the reason I chose it over Perl). I may consider Perl later. Bash and PowerShell For easy system administration on Linux and Windows. That's a plan for later but on my list. I heard they are also good for delivering naughty, malicious payloads for pentesting. OCaml, F# and SML I chose these pure functional languages for my adventure into Functional Programming. Java No choice. Most of the programming modules I'll take in the coming semesters in school use this language. Processing For data visualisation and some other interesting things. It uses Java and Python programming languages, and there is also a JavaScript library for it (processing.js). Some logic programming languages and databases will follow later. 2 Likes |

Health / Re: Graphics: The Effect Of Obesity And Overweight On The Body. by Craigston: 4:49am On Oct 06, 2016 |
blessedvisky:You cannot get rid of belly fat alone in a healthy way (the only way I know of involves surgery). Fat is distributed throughout the body, with more density in some areas. If you are trying to lose the fat, the results will show up slower in areas of high density: so you will lose belly fat slower if your body stores more fat around your abdomen. For a more desperate attempt at torching fat, see below 2 Likes

Programming / Re: What Can Be Done To Improve This Section? by Craigston: 6:20pm On Sep 25, 2016 |
I thought we're done with this discussion? We agreed to put our energies into the new Nairaland instead. It's the better option since we'll be having a dedicated platform for the community and an active troll to keep us happy. Really, we need to improve these sections (Programming and Webmasters). Here's a previous discussion thread concerning this same issue. On that thread, I suggested it be pinned to the top of this section so we can keep the discussion going and improve incrementally. Right now, that thread is lost. www.nairaland.com/2148753/suggestions-how-improve-section Here goes my first suggestion: we need the ability to merge threads that are obviously similar. Brilliant suggestions were made on the thread I referenced above. We could just merge both threads and continue the discussion. It's important. @dhtml18 @Javanian @Jregz @thewebcraft @crotonite @blueyedgeek @jacob05 @Kodejuice @marine63 @FRInteractives @gimakon @blenyo11 @AAinEqGuinea @pcguru1 @GodMode @CodeHouse @GreatFes17 @Seun @HCpaul |

logicalhumour:I understand trust is important to you as it is to almost everyone who is not careless. If you don't mind learning and developing with me, you can PM me or just indicate here and I'll initiate contact. I also have some ideas I'm preparing to develop soon. I hope you keep a memo of your ideas. It helps. I get ideas frequently and I write them down in a note so I can look at them later and make better decisions on which ones are more viable. |

In fact, just try it out and thank me later. @FrankLampard You can download the document for your SQL flavour for easy reference whenever you need it.

Religion / Re: Mock The Wh0re by Craigston: 12:55am On Sep 08, 2016 |
I doubt Peter was the rock Jesus declared to build His church on. If the church would be built on any man's regard, it would be the Lord in flesh, Jesus' name. The rock was the revelation and is the knowledge that Jesus is the son of God. That makes it the church of Christ, not Peter's. Peter wasn't the good shepherd; he was a servant of the good shepherd. There is only one head of the church --- Christ himself. 4 Likes 1 Share |
Travel / Re: Cally Air: Cross River Floats Airline by Craigston: 1:34pm On Sep 06, 2016 |
More useful revenue is about to flow to the Indians for a project which may not be maintained by successive governments. It would profit us more to have Nigerians in charge of such projects or, at least, fill every role we're capable of in carrying out such projects. I hope this turns out well. India depends on Russia, France and other developed nation for fulfilment of advanced projects. We depend on them for more trivial projects like this. Well, what are we capable of? |

Webmasters / Re: Stop! Before You Begin Your Next Web Design Project by Craigston: 9:07pm On Aug 25, 2016 |
Thanks for sharing such knowledge. They're very important in relating with your clients too. Also I think developers should read "Web Design for Developers" by Brian P. Hogan to have more ideas of interacting with clients. I found it useful and it improved my design aptitude a little. |

Education / Re: Types Of Friends In The University by Craigston: 12:31am On Aug 12, 2016 |
The academics-only friends: they talk to you only when they need assistance on a concept or topic they don't understand. After that you don't get close to even their friendzone. The social media friends: they don't talk to you in class or anywhere around the school but they become friendly to you on WhatsApp. Weird. The ambitious ones: these ones have only one requirement for friendship (actually there may be more than one) --- be ready to listen to them talk about their ambitions as often as you meet. They can cheer you up and encourage you to keep going on even when you feel empty. The selfish ones: the ones that want to have as much intellectual advantage as possible over every other person. They seldom share knowledge and feel threatened whenever other seem to be catching up with them. 3 Likes 1 Share |

The lecturer taking the course is a maniac out to make us into robots that reproduce his lecture notes in tests and exams: no room for style or wider reading; just cram what he told you in class. But I love the course and I've got new books on it. |
