Woah, that is impressive 👏, Hats off. I also just started upwork recently so let's see how it goes. Also any tip you have will be very useful #programmertoprogrammer

Jivi:
Is the software engineer salary range for Nigeria on google accurate?

Not really that accurate, they give an estimate.

MindHacker9009:
Okay you are now the spell checker bot on Nairaland.

Sorry Sir, if you are so knowledgeable I don't think you would have made such a mistake oh

Alphabyte3:
Facebook and X is built with native on Kotlin and swiftUI. It might be faster but Cross- platform and native has pros and cons. Some special features is harder to implement in Cross-platform because it is limited.

But cross platform language actually are very advantageous to new systems

MindHacker9009:
I should be asking you instead. All these Maths bots on Nairaland that has no where else to use that Maths they have been cramming, but have decided to come and be disturbing us real programmers here. If you beleive you are a good Mathematician go and invent the next super operating system better than Windows or Linux and leave us real programmers and Software Engineers alone to face real life programming projects.

I admit i may not be Alan turing, but atleast i know well enough to proofread and spell check everything before i post

MindHacker9009:
DSA can be applied to all software development projects and it's not only for mathematician's problems, so you are the one so far off. Most complex programming projects you'll find in the real world will be something like this one below and not A/Level maths or Bsc Maths problems.

Programming only require good logical thinking and not A/Level Maths or Bsc Maths.

Implement a piece of online software suitable for use by a cinema. The system should be
capable of providing information about films currently showing, and of the availability
of seats in the cinema. The system should allow for seats to be booked either
individually or as a block. For example a block of 5 seats would require 3 adjacent
seats to be booked together.

Whats up with you and this problem, you just keep bringing it on (hope i am not talking to some kinda bot)

princely4ever:
that's me

Web dev or app dev

emee701:
HTML CSS reactjs and nodejs for webapp.
Java, kotlin, swift for mobileapp
Mysql and mongoDB for database

Are people still using kotlin and swift when there are other better and faster cross-platform languages like react native and flutter ?

Shomek:
What about this ? Ask it about this example: shomek from nairaland.
<your username> from nairaland
Check the result

As i said, it just recycles what is on the internet. So it is just as if you searched it

mrkings84:
But he is actually trying....
I am so impressed with it's performance

Sorry to be that guy, but it does not have a gender, so it is simply referred to as "it"

Shomek:
The problem is most of us don't read the terms and conditions.
All the information meta ai has was taken from the internet.

But the data is not majorly used for anything other than just for Ads

mrkings84:
This sounds bulky and vague to a common man like me... Can't you make it simpler

It just means that the "AI" you were conversing with is just a series of algorithms which was trained using a lot of data/information (big data) so it may have gone through alot of users personal chat to understand pidgin, along with alot of resources from the internet through social media apps. So, in theory, it is just recycling everything it saw on the net

Shomek:
You are right, but meta ai is stealing our content online without our permission

Actually, it is with our permission. Those terms and condition includes that

silento:
Nothing concern success of a product with programming language, you are already on the wrong path

Not necessarily though, using modern languages and frameworks makes for an attractive UI and a general faster service which might contribute to it's success

Yes, for modifying and implementing new and pre-existing features

You do not build an entire fintech with a single programming language. It is a huge collection of different aspects working in unison

Big data, algorithmic learning, and machine learning at its finest. Just imagine the Yottabytes of data meta has access to, so training their algorithms will ensure they are of top-notch quality. This is why they are nigh impossible to build as an individual or small company.
Sorry for the epistle

MindHacker9009:
That's not Software Development but A/Level maths. Software Development is when you take your maths problem and make it available through a secure API for display on users web browsers with authentication and authorisation and also save and retrieve the data securely from a database or datastore with optimisation.

You are so far off.
Check online for DSAs, i hate to agree with turmacs but this is inevitable if you want to go far in Software Developement

Are you a fullstack ?

Seems you have never been a victim of this. It is people like you that started the sexforgrades action happening in Nigerian universities

emee701:
Some even belief you just sit for like 2 hrs a day on a computer and dollars start pouring it by month end

I wish it was even as easy as that sef. Ordinary DSAs now, person don run

emee701:
Yea some people feel they do less work and have very high pay especially when someone is working remotely making money those working 8 - 5pm

When it is not a person's work sector, people tend to think the work is easy. If only they know the hours put into only debugging

Karleb:
I wonder why those who think like this don't get into tech to have their share of the cake.

Lol

emee701:
Lately, I've noticed a lot of discussions about the supposed collapse of the tech job market. It’s like people are eagerly waiting for the bubble to burst, almost as if they want tech jobs to devaluate. Or maybe it’s just a backlash against the rapid growth and high salaries that have defined tech field for so long?

I get that the tech industry has had its fair share of excesses and issues, but it feels like there's a deeper narrative at play here. Are people outside of tech just tired of hearing about high paychecks and perks? Is there a sense of "finally, they're getting what they deserve" from those who feel tech has been overhyped? Or is it just envy or jealousy?

This is the First time I am hearing of any of such claims.

Maybe, it's the general misconception that tech workers do less labor and get more pay than hose doing manual physical labor

Pls speak for your family members abeg.
Majority of our parents were virgins but today you can hardly find one virgin even if you enter church. Majority of dem no get more than 2 body counts back then. But today, a non-virgin with 5 body count is regarded as decent. How dare you compare Gen-Z with our mothers of old People dey go village back then to marry virgins but nowadays it's not possible sef to see a virgin because na boreholes we see everywhere

Hmm.
As far as say you no been dey there, there is every possibility say na borehole born you
