I need your help my daughter is learning python with flasks.
After finishing this programming what is the next step
Please your help is needed
Thanks

What does she want to do with Python, what is her niche ?

Paystack:
She is learning it wrongly.

You can't start Python then jump to learning Flask

She must Learn the Python programming language first, its basics and concepts before learning any other Python package.


Get her a course with good learning path

You can buy a course for her on Udemy. Com

Don't make her learn from YouTube because you're trying to save money.

What is wrong about learning from YouTube ?

CodingSoft:
Share you experience working in the above teams?

Dey played

MindHacker9009:
Yeah with the front-end.

The main back end gra-gra is checking if a seat has been booked, because only js will do the info of movie (using an API) but you can also use js all through, just store the seating info on the local disc

MindHacker9009:
Software Engineers on NL will not waste their valuable time on such a tasks that lack commercial viability. Such tasks you posted are typically more suited for university mathematics students who are learning to apply programming to solve their mathematical exercises.

Here is an example of what Software Engineers on NL will spend their valuable time on:

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 3 seats would require 3 adjacent
seats to be booked together.

Along with the front end ?

correctguy101:
Ah..

See lie... Your account green?

For the current Nigeria? Even with less on top, many go rush even that cow dung soup like say na egusi

Guy, you no get joy oh, but na true you talk sha

Deicide:
Hackaton is never about coding skills thought that would help, It's always about top notch ideas

Care to expanciate

cj1080:
Not that these application tracking softwares are used by a lot of companies in the west.

They work on setting up keywords that employer is looking for.

Example

School
Experience
Previous roles
Type of activities at previous jobs.

In essence those things a typical hr person does before to check each cv for what they want.

Now instead of a person

AI does it

Making the resume screening process faster,

They can screen 10k resumes in 20minutes.


It's an advantage to them, but as always there are ways around this.

Multiple resumes with different increased or reduced roles or experience or location difference or work experience.

Even multiple CVS with name rotations
I.e if your name is John Brown Smith
You apply the first time as John Brown Smith
You can your next application as Brown John Smith and send another with Smith B John (multiple emails). You get the idea.
There is always a work around

But are there any keywords ?

turmacs:
Wow this is actually correct and I am really surprised that it could solve it (although this a very easy problem). Chatgpt just solved nonsense. So no software engineer on NL could solve this till now? wonderfull.

Please, break down the question and answer so that we the entry level devs can learn. Thanks

Cool, I also created my own YouTube channel and I have a stable audience of 200 people. Somewhere in March 2020 I built my first PC and started playing online games like Cs-go, Fortnite, and Warzone - games that I stream now), just playing, but one day a friend came to me and offered to play some games, but running the stream. Created a channel for me, set up OBS, and started streaming. It was fun and very cool. Only two people watched us, but I liked it so much that I decided to try to be a streamer, I [color=#000000]Vist the - Streaming Live Academy website[/color], which I was advised on YouTube, for information on how to become more popular on YouTube. You know, I did it, now I'm streaming 4 times a week and interacting with my audience, I really enjoy doing it.

what is your youtube ?

Can i get it ?

GloriousGbola:
You have unlimited cash, buy any LG oled. They are 4k and have high refresh rate

Most gaming blogs and reviews celebrate lg oleds as best for gaming, even competing with crts for retro gaming

Outside of that, buy an LG 4k TV. Any LG smart TV is also a 4k TV. I am not even sure lg still makes regular HD TVs.

To maximize your experience stick to the actual brand name tvs. I used a living room pc for years with a 4k LG TV and we all had a blast with it.

Nice write up, but are they usually budget friendly ?

ThaRealist:
On to wetin?

Sister Agnes oh

qtguru:
It was a 4 day event and at the end of the day, the best idea wins, someone did the backend, another the UI and I just worked on the mobile

Ok, thanks

Kaczynski:
DSA

Yes

Will it be like how questions concerning DSAs are asked on leetcode or is it different ?

qtguru:
Individual my task was to build a Jquery Mobile app and eventually J2ME

But was it a team effort ie you handled a particular division or did you do it like a knock out challenge ie individuals from each team go up against other individuals from another team ? And also, were you timed ?

Themaths:
eFootball

Last of us

Kaczynski:
Yeah , been to both Ubuntu and Google dev hackathon


Got blacklisted from attending Shecode hackathons because apparently it's for women only

But guy, you ma you heard she codes and thought it was unisex ?

Kaczynski:
Yeah , been to both Ubuntu and Google dev hackathon


Got blacklisted from attending Shecode hackathons because apparently it's for women only

Also attending a google dev, what really prepared you for it, also will letcode, algocode and hackerrank be useful ?

qtguru:
Yes also won one at CCHUB, can't think of any dos and don't other than coding. Mayne not stealing competitors code, never heard any strict rules

But what really happens, are you all given individual projects or do you do it as a team

airsaylongcome:
So it is widely believed that Nairaland started of with SMF forum script. While most of the current UI hasn't changed much from the early days, it is also widely rumored that the forum was migrated to Python.

And NL doesn't need to share their source codes with anyone. It's now proprietary and has become Intellectual property.

But if they are not willing to spend to upgrade their site, let them open source it

airsaylongcome:
What's wrong about the UI? It's not "flashy" yes, but what would you rather have? Flashy UI with no content as all the other pretenders to NL's throne or "outdated UI" with loads of content whether good or bad. I will always pick function over flashy. Can the UI be better? Of course? Can I make it better? No. Can I live with it as it is? Yes.

And NL doesn't have to do anything at the moment. They are effectively a monopoly. And until there is competition, there won't be much change to the UI.

Nobody is saying anything about reducing the functionality, but this website/forum is static. Updating it will do no one no harm. It will help improve the asthetics of the website. Also concerning the issue of competition you raised, the only reason nl has no competition is because it was created early on in the era of the internet coming to Nigeria and many just wanted to try something new but if nl was to enter the competition its DAUs will be very low

airsaylongcome:
When I was coding, all these fancy Frontend/Backend dichotomy hadn't taken strong hold. So our emphasis was to write up code that fully implemented business logic. That was core and critical. "Pretty" frontend were far from our minds. In fact there was a course we did called Human-Computer Interaction which I totally hated.

Omo, you have been in the game for a long time, i am guessing early 2000s or late 1900s. Omo

PulsingPurple:
Not really maybe, just maybe being intentional about innovation.
Cos money can solve most of these things, not like he needs community help

I think those green emojis in particular are imported from a certain library that was popular back then... Cos I've seen them on other websites too.

I presented open sourcing as the most realistic plan because can seun actually release money for this
