I prefer ebooks too. If you can master c# then python will be easier (my opinion). I started from c++ then decided to take up c#, I later abandoned it because I got too many ebooks with different approaches that got me confused and later disinterested.

The syntax dey do me one kind for eye. I am used to curly braces, but with python's indentation and colon approach I am still trying to make sense of it. C# make sense die! I really loved the language especially the LINQ feature...other languages should embrace it. Regular expression till tomorrow dey give me headache.

As for books I don't use more than two. When I was learning c# I used head first and deitel & deitel.

Data science is cool. But companies expectation for that role is the challenge I have with data science. They will expect you to include knowledge of excel, SQL, power bi.... Except if you want to go into freelancing.
Yea, it's always Python language 1st b4 delving into the frameworks to avoid getting stucked and to be properly grounded.
Pls, always update yourself with industry demands to guide you in your choice and to get easy online support.

Thanks for the input. I appreciate plenty. The data analysis//science route is complex, I know, that is why I want to get grounded first with the python language before I make that decision. Thanks all the same.

flam5:
Boss, are you comfortable with ebook? Why not use video tutorial like udemy videos on Python. You will love them. Having said that, which aspect of Python do you want to major in?

Was thinking towards data science/analysis, the reason for the excel bible 2019. I know the horizon is broad but let me get comfortable with the python language first. Videos are okay but don't know why I prefer books.

kneo:
I have always wanted to do this but weekly target no gree. I need liberation

Feel you bro. Sometimes the mind is willing but the body no dey gree. Did c# many years back but left it. But now I want take this one serious.

NaijaCr7:
Check for probable leakage ......

I'll probably do a pressure test again. However i am not really sweating it because by next year I'll only give ehailing a minute %age of my time, started learning python. Anyone in here taking that route, maybe we can be study buddies?

NaijaCr7:
U no wan join bolt ni

These two is more than I can chew. For now I am out, don't know why my car's radiator dey dry water. I just park the car for compound.

NaijaCr7:
Lol....are u on bolt....a friend registered CRV 2000 ..coasting well now

Just uber and InDriver.

NaijaCr7:
I saw a driver on bolt with a 1999Toyota SUV , if correct na like third time I dey witness same...how dem this guys they take pull am off during inspection. Na wa o

...and I am worried that mine is a 2002 crv.

jaymejate:
This is weird. Without inspection, without uploading any car documents? Damn, this is weird

They sent me a text saying that for me to drive on their platform I need to complete my driver training on line or either in their office. I'll probably give it a shot.

abefeabebi:
pls help with guideline on how to open indriver have issue with criminal record and taxi id,so couldn't pass that stage and is there need for inspection too. thanks for Ur response

No need for inspection. For character report just screen shot your bolt profile page. Kapish!

abefeabebi:
Pls help me with Ur experience, I am staying around unilag estate magodo phase 1, my first day of work I made 500naira,really discouraging.

Install the InDriver app as well. Some days are like that so don't blame yourself for the kind soap you use baff before you leave house. My first day on the job was 1200 the entire day.

I saw what u did dere

Pun

Macsjebs:
I was only stating a personal concern for the good of many with no intention to hurt anyone

How do you diffuse the air you breath when you walk in an open street? Boss just let this lie. The driver has not done wrong for refusing your offer and please save yourself what little energy you have.

Olayetan:
Honestly i regretted carrying the guy.

I actually had agreement with the rider to pay police at checkpoint but the guy just refused.. i never observed the guy was drunk so he wasn't in his senses.


Anyway, i would have rejected to carry him but base on the agreement, i agreed to.

Truth is you just have to sort yourself out. Had similar issue when curfew was still 10pm. My car was driven to their office at aswani police station...was on a delivery to Ikeja that night. Total bribe money was 10k, rider transfered 3k. As my car was released, I just park outside their station till 4am.

chillex8:
If only every driver does same.
Unless am unable to go online. Only then, will I even consider those useless documents.

Same here. Its just that I needed both the lasdri and hackney during registration. What I believe would happen is that the same way uber didn't trouble old drivers for lasdri and hackney is the same way they won't trouble old drivers for the badge and tag.

jaymejate:
Excuse me everybody. This driver's badge. It's causing confusion o.

I got to the Old Secetariat ikeja for it. Weytin dem tell us b4 na say 4k.

What they told me is that, we will bring driver accreditation confirmation which will be collected at the Lasdri, oshodi. Then come with the paper (picture below) with road worthiness of the vehicle and sum of 11k for the Badge.

Wait is the badge fto Train Captains?
I shock, i even de follow them argue.

Izzou, felicity0001, eyinola and others. Please confirm this. I de overthink now

Anyways, for those who wants to know more about it. That's it right there.
You will pay 1k at the Lasdri oshodi for confirmation. Then take the slip to Old secetariat, Code of conduct at Ikeja, show them the slip and pay 11k (Jesus)

That's all

Why 11k. Last last what we would have just done is boycott the process and lets see if uber go block all their drivers. So when the complains start coming in both government and uber go adjust. Worse comes to worse I leave their app for them.

InfinityEstates:
Not yet o... They scanned it on Saturday and CLEARED the codes. Said I should drive it this weekend to observe if it would improve but it apparently hasn't. Na to continue the matter next week. Thanks for your concern.

Had a similar multiple and random misfire code with all cylinders throwing a misfire tantrum. Another similar issue I had that you also have is the camshaft error code. Not saying that my cars problem is same as yours, but you could ask your mech to service your oil control valve solenoid as it responsible for the smooth operation of your camshaft.

tojahh:
What about if she change the destiny to good one?

Have you forgotten how we always pray to meet our destiny changer?

Oven... May it be well with you!!!

That was why I said "some oven change destiny", but I never said for bad or good.

skillip:
I've said it before that whenever you leave your house and return, kneel down and thank God. The accident I saw on 3mb this night I no understand am, guess a dispatch guy was knocked down and his flesh was on the road, other cars were also involved and I saw one Coro too, probably one of us. Now on top small money case don enter the matter.

Thank God for life and.

These dispatch guys I think its high time gov look into their matter cos the way they run sometimes for express dey wonder me as to where them dey get their liver? Their speed pass uber driver when dey rush to meet up rental money.

Slickleo:
Make we play destiny changer for em, him prink go jst fall back.

We wish him well. Let's hope say this type na the type when go change him destiny for good.

Beng1234:
Got a ride from dideolu estate to idimu. This female rider was coming from a guy’s place. Infact, they hugged before entering my car (Wetin concern me). As she got in, she started gist immediately. Trip lasted for about 2 hours. No music, just gist. Trip ended 3400, she gave me 4k and said I should keep the change. She called me hours after to inform me that she would save my number............. cut long stories short

Guess who is preparing dinner in my kitchen tonight? My rider �.

Its all good bro. But light that oven with care, you don't know where its been. Some oven change destiny.

odimbannamdi:
Thanks for this detailed information bro. A very close relative just recently acquired the vehicle for personal use though. I will share this post with her.

What is CV joint? Also, what type of oil should she use for good maintenance of the car?

Since the car is fresh off the oven(toks i mean) she could use the recommended 5w20. Mine is an old hog so I use Mobil semisynthetic 5w30.

Just google CV joint for better clarity.

NaijaCr7:
Abeg house I need your advice.

I reached out through a post for rental, and I was as well in talks with a family member. The family volunteered to drop his car a Honda CRV 2003 model for me . To pay 70k monthly . He advise I save up and buy mine in 10months time.

My main question is I need advice and suggestions on if the car can handle the heat.....

Thanks

First of, the car won't give you away as an uber driver, the way coro does. So the chances of you being harassed unnecessarily
is eliminated.

PARTS
The parts are fairly cheap and easily sourced. What you can't get in Ladipo, you most certainly will get it in Oyingbo. And of cause there is no short fall of mechanics!

In terms of handling the heat:
There's nothing a coro can do that this suv can't do better provided you have a mindset towards preventive maintenance rather than corrective maintenance. People complain of Honda and arm 'pulling', this is something I have never experienced since I've been driving the car for more than 18months...and trust me I've been to terrible terrains with this SUV. However, in terms of fuel consumption, if you plan your routes well you can get something decent if you start your day with 4k fuel.

One peculiar problem with the car is the CV joint. Do not compromise on this particular part. Always go for good tokumbo grade.

newk007:
Taxify no way... Since U don click on collect cash and ended d trip


Count ur loss from dere commission and move on

Its actually hoobah. Don't know if I should do them a mail. The negative for my commission don shoot up.

newk007:
Click on rider paid less, and input 1,300 as the amount d rider paid atleast d commission will be taken from 1,300

What are the steps of doing this, cause I already clicked collect cash"?

See me see wahala o. Trip when end for 1300 don turn to 6900 because I forget to click "collect cash" till I reach house from aunty radu shop area to igando. As the rain start e just put everyone in chaos me self dey hurry to go house cause time don go. I beg wet in I fit do?

toomush:
You should have waited, for the code. When Uber algorithm sense that your location and the rider that made the request is far from each other, they try to confirm if you are truly with the rider. Nah to avoid fraud sha

Both initiator and rider where both in the same place. I think the algorithm got the location of pick up wrong.

Eizenburg:
It happens sometimes, when you’re starting the trip away from the point of request. You actually started the trip after inputting the code; ilupeju. Technically, the app wasn’t wrong. You should have negotiated with the rider.

I think the bolded was what happened. After clicking navigate, map wanted me to get to the other side of the road heading towards airport, where as rider was on the side of the road heading towards 7&8 from the airport.

Yeah, I think should have renegotiated. Didn't occur to me.
