Family / Re: Men/guys Plz Stop Encouraging/producing Baby Mamas by DDayve: 8:41am On Jan 25
Arkmanbuddy:


Why go on with the relationship with the person when you know you guys aren't compatible? Why wait till she gets pregnant?

The essence of relationship is to know more about each other and to find out if both of you are compatible. Sometimes, while in the process the lady decides to play a fast one by becoming pregnant, thinking that it would hook the man. Now, you may ask, why didn't the man use condom? A woman that wants to hook will refuse condom telling you not to worry, that everything is in control.

Lemme tell you the truth, If you both ain't compatible, and you force it, there will be no happiness in the union. Fact!

.Wow. nice one bro.. was that your first job? Please how did you do it? Will like to have your personal contact pls

Yeah! And performing excellently well.

Got the job via linkedin. I have been very close multiple times, but this time, God said it's my time.

By Gods grace, it didn't take much effort to earn the confidence of my employers. Good thing is that logic has never been an issue for me. So most of the logic based problem, I scale them quick enough

I'd like to seek some piece of advice from you.. Please I'll really appreciate if you would take your time to answer me..

I'm currently, 21 next year I'll be 22 and would be going to uni for CS..
I'll love to go into full stack web development (from front end to back end)and also some competitive programming (even though I won't be competing with anyone or anywhere, just to sharpen my programming skills)..

How would you advise me to go about this, I'm seriously confused because I don't know where to start from or which to start with ... And I'll also love to learn one OOP language(preferably C++) for solving DSA or CP related questions.. I just don't know how to put this into some sort of path way to follow.

I'm not going into coding for money so I don't care how long it would take me before I start getting the dividends..

So please how would you advise me to go about it.. Focus on web development first or CP..

Wow! Na wa.... Na real wa
Family / What She Did When She Received Her Salary by DDayve: 11:45pm On Dec 31, 2023
My salary came yesterday and immediately I received alert, I rushed to my husband and asked him how much he needs me to contribute after informing him that my salary has been paid.

Oga thought I was joking and mentioned a figure thinking I was going to contest because it was almost all my salary, I just carried my phone and transferred it to him.

It was doing him like film, I then went ahead to pay the salary of our children's lesson teacher so that he would stop thinking about it.

That's when I realized that he was doing so much without complaining He sees it like his duty and even when the financial burden is too much, he struggles to pay without asking me.

He was so surprised and happy, I know that my money is just a fraction of what he brings but he felt like I gave him millions.

I then told him that I am putting in the effort to make more money so that I can still reduce his stress. He didn't marry a responsibility, he married an helper and he should be feeling more relaxed than when he was single.

I have never felt entitled to anybody's pocket and I won't do that with my husband.

Omo, oga went to the market without even telling me, stocked up the home.

Cooked and served me o, this small support has gone a long way to settle silent quarrels that I didn't even know about.

I will keep working harder and doing my best, men also need support, they are not supermarket. Men needs our support too

Written by a virtuous woman!

Programming / Re: Other Than Linkedin, Please How Do You Get Tech Jobs by DDayve: 8:09pm On Dec 31, 2023
airsaylongcome:


Interesting. Like I said, it's not a platform that regularly advertises vacancies. But I've found out that a lot of small business owners are on many communities related to their businesses there. They may post a question about a problem that they are having there. Just being active, participating in the conversations and suggesting possible solutions gives you visibility to these owners. Most of the time when they have an opening, they just ask on the community and if you have been active, they are often open to offering the roles. I've turned down almost 4 roles from there (in my field) because the work hours clashed with my current role (I don't joke with my current role because of the level of flexibility they give)

Upwork too has been somehow good with me.

Please, what's your stack ?

Family / Re: I Want To Cancel The Marriage Plans. Is It Worth It? by DDayve: 4:51pm On Dec 30, 2023
gasparpisciotta:
Marriage is overrated and most people marry the wrong person but manage themselves till they depart either by death or other reasons

1. Never marry a girl out of pity
2. Never marry a woman who does not respect you
3. Never marry a girl you cannot control
4. Never marry a girl who threatens you
5. Never marry a lady who can illegally cohabit with the opposite sex without conscience
6. Don’t ever show your weakness to a woman
7. Don’t marry a lazy girl
8. If you cannot teach, mold, recreate and positively influence her, please let go

your portfolio site is very nice. Good job. But I would personally preferred lighter background with darker text. Also some of your projects look like the are static pages and you still have lorem Ipsum in some. Another thing is this, I may be wrong, but some of your works look like some projects in Udemy. Like Natour, Trillo. I think I have come across such project, by a CSS guy. He was teaching CSS. My advice is to try and change the name of the project, and change one or two things so that, by mere hearing the name or looking at it, the person won't noticed if it was a tutorial. Nice one. Am also a self taught, looking to break through in getting a job, but I don't know where to start. My portfolio was rubbished here. So I removed all my css and currently building a new one. Here is my WhatsApp 08142534211. Pls let align

You are correct with the static sites for Trillo and Natour. They are just there to add numbers. I have no intention of changing the names except removing them entirely in the near future.
The hosting of one of my strong projects just got expired, so I had to remove it. I also had to remove some of my works I used to host on heroku when heroku was free. This greatly reduced the amount of project on my portfolio so I had no choice than to increase the numbers with them.

Infact, 2 of the projects there are job test projects, I had no choice but to add them to increase numbers. I have one e-commerce project I was working on with next Js, it's working perfectly fine on my machine but misbehaves with dynamic call to single products, I believe the free vercel hosting is the fault cos I have no issue when I next build it on my development server. I implemented NextAuth in that project. Very sweet on my machine but misbehaves on free vercel hosting. I had to also remove and discontinue the project.

At the end of the day, the question is, can you do the job? I can do more than you see on my portfolio.

What did you use in building the page?

HTML, CSS. …
Please list all out. Thank you

It's a simple one.
React typescript, sass CSS, node express, MongoDb to collect visitors count, AOS, Nodemailer for email messaging. Deployed the simple backend with AWS lambda and the frontend on AWS amplify.

Djamel:


how did you get the work experience?

what are the tasks you perform in this new web developer job?

I have once written a complete Ponzi application from frontend to backend. Yeah. I gave a UI/UX designer to do the design but I built the app from start to finish, hosted it on AWS elastic beanstalk. The hosting just expired last month else I would have posted the URL here. While learning, I watched a very impacting MERN stack course. After finishing the course. I started all over again to build the application myself from start to finish and even incorporated many other features not in the first one. I have had many job test invites that has to do with building out what is existent in a figma file. Many of those jobs, I didn't get them but I make sure I build those things to completion. Those stuff made my hand very strong.

As it is, I hardly have any issue implementing JavaScript or CSS functionalities. So designing and translating design mockups and wireframes into functional and interactive web from a figma or other design tool is an easy deal for me.

In my present company, which is a start up, there is a Figma file I am working on along with another frontend guy. I met the guy there. So far, I have helped the guy implement 3 functionalities that he pended as a result of not being able to implement.

i have few questions, hope you don't mind answering them.

1. How did you apply for the jobs
2. what was your previous job
3. What advice do you have for devs looking for similar role


i have been coding for awhile, i haven't gotten any jobs yet.

1. I applied for jobs everywhere but mostly indeed and linkedin. The one I finally got is from LinkedIn.
Mind you, before getting this one, I have done atleast 7 interview job test that I failed.

2. I work as an Engineer in a a manufacturing firm. I still work there.

3. For Devs looking for similar role. Don't give up, keep learning and applying for jobs. Provided you don't give up, it will definitely pay someday.

Programming / Finally Got A Tech Job by DDayve: 4:08pm On Nov 05, 2023
niel63 and others who gave a constructive criticism when I posted my portfolio project here, I want to specially thank you.

After several failures and trials, I finally got a tech job as a front-end web developer.

I have been on my graduate job for 8yrs now but my first tech job which is remote pays me more. Funny enough, I still do both. My onsite job is presently not stressful, so I write code while at work using company power.

My advice to newbies, the road is not rosy but there is definitely gonna be light at the end of the road if you persist.

Firstly, from your link, you deployed the project on GitHub. I'll advice you host it on another mainstream platform. It doesn't have to be paid. This is to avoid bias on your ability to host.

People going tribal on this issue are worse than Tiamiyu. There's absolutely nothing tribal about this.

Yes, there are negative traits that seem to be dominant in particular ethnic groups but it shouldn't be generalized. The sooner we learn to address incidents on the basis of personal character, the better for all of us.

Those going tribal are not actually tribal per say. They are still playing politics. You may be surprise that those posting the tribal remarks are even yorubas just to continue to send the message that there is a competition between the Yoruba and the Igbo thereby arousing the neutral yorubas to join them to hate other tribes.
This Emdee guy represents himself as an individual and not any tribe.
