Thanks but I couldn't find it on Google play. I only saw powtoon connect

This is no time to start waiting for government to do stuff for us.....Platforms like this is what we need to get this kinda stuff done for ourselves.
We also need to work on AI in the field of security as it seems our government have been unable to tackle the security issues we have in the country

Cacawa2:
I will definitely be in touch. Where are you based?

Cacawa2:
Now this is the sort of solution we would like to see. I know you may be very busy with other projects, but if you can find time to develop this solution, using the hub, or if you can supervise a researcher on this, then we would be able to expand frontiers. I look forward to further interactions with you in the months ahead. It’s all coming together now.

if only we have a government that thinks
if only we have leaders that can think beyond tomorrow
if only we are not blacks

I came from an utopia point of view. All things equal, dell anyday, any time.

Cacawa2:
hahahaha very very possible.

You know that UV light is a substitute for sunlight in farming? So in an attempt to, say, grow certain crops in a controlled "climate", farmers can make use of indoor farming. And of course, how best to allocate the available but limited artificial sunlight, (UV light source) and artificial rainfall (water) around the indoor farm other than the use of AI robotics.

Similarly, in the application of scarce resources such as fertilizer, in your farm, the use of AI allows you to best determine where it is needed, what quantity is just right, and it allows you predict the yield. Same for pest control.

The aspect of crop harvesting is most interesting.

Most farmers today have decided to adopt machine learning, as well as autonomous systems to reduce their wastage, enhance profit, and make farming more ergonomic.

You know you can also detect the activities of pests in your farm? So that's what it's all about. I'm certain that the X10 yield you mentioned is feasible. We will have some people work on this and maybe invite you to see for yourself.

Fingers crossed.

Now this is super amazing. Please go ahead and acquire it. There are many ICT centres wasting away, with so many facilities in them. One of the reasons is that our institutions are not so much interested in breaking barriers. Except for some bodies like Jamb. That’s why private firms need to take control. The robotics lab I’m bringing could easily be set up or financed by govt. if they were keen on it.

Anyway I’ll give kudos to them, I received a Nitda scholarship for UK Masters during GEJ’s era. So I went for Advanced Control and Systems Engineering, Uni of Manchester. Had a distinction, got a UK govt scholarship for PhD with their robotics group. Had to obtain Nitda’s permission anyway. Finished it, spent quality time afterwards supporting a firm and providing solutions to Nuclear related challenges (using robotics). Now I found out something. Many times the UK relies on China for fabrication. Because the Chinese combine two great qualities: 1)they are cheaper, 2) thy never say anything is impossible. They have all the ideas and they make anything you ask for. So I’ve decided, you know what? Nigerians are like that, we can do better than that. What we need are facilities. I know Power Supply remains a challenge, but it is workable.

Please take good care of the solar facilities once you acquire them.

To your second remark, yes there are indeed a range of contributions from robotics and AI to farming. I’m very happy that you are already looking into it. If there are questions you have, if there are sensors you need, rugged semi-autonomous mini-vehicles, semi-autonomous weed control, controlled irrigation, these are areas we could collaborate.

You'll hav to prepare yourself for lifelong learning in this field. So,if you always need an instructor to put u str8,it will b hard/impossible to keep up.

Why r u switchng fields to web d? Y not stay nd build ur career in d present field? Is it the money? While d earnings mayb attractive remmber ,it's very labour intensive which is ironic since automation is supposed to reduce labour costs, but,in i.t each advancemnt simply give more crude tools for building d next pyramid.
The amount of code you'll have to write is always gonna be substantial.

Lol. Anyone abeg. Me I don't know computers to that extent. if it's a software still tell me. I'm talking about something like this

Last week. Can you help?

So,I want to help out some lucky people set up their professional looking websites for absolutely free. I'm a professional Web developer and want to try out my custom library I built myself .
If interested,comment the type of website you want below and let's discuss

stanliwise:
anyway I don't mean to disrespect op by starting a fight here but I am not against what you said actually, you're right with what you're saying but what you quoted, if you look closely, the dud was only trying to being sarcastic with the OP, off course wat he created was very basic, yet that doesn't mean you turn op against his teacher. Hope I am communicating?

Timijo:
Hello guys, my younger sister's Facebook account was hacked. I have made several attempts to get it back but I couldn't.
I tried to use online hacking tool to get it back but what I got was the hacker's Facebook email.
Can anyone help me to do this? The hacker's Facebook username is gavinmatia.
Thanks for your help.

Micalex:
I have knowledge of computer, I really wanna take in an I.T course...

So which guys?

RCDIY:
Still available...

This is very dumb... That isn't even programming...
Even a 7year old could do that .. Microsoft ni.... microstrong ko....
See Mr op.... Don't let your teachers their deceive u.
U can't learn python with 3 months.... Unless u just want to build age calculator and print your name 10 times app.

Marry tutorial videos.... I bet they'd teach u guys WordPress and call it web development.

Hello Nairaland,

I want to keep a diary on my journey to programming. I would have opened the thread on the dairy section but I decided to do it here where I can get comments from time to time.

For over two years i have been dreaming of learning Python or any other language that can help me with the projects I have in mind. I have tried severally to learn on my own using videos from YouTube but I always lose concentration.

So last week I summoned courage to register with an IT firm for training and get a personal instructor.

They training will be from wed design to wed development and then Python. The web design is expected to last for 8 weeks, then after I migrate to web development which will last for another 8weeks. ...and the Python. Seems the training will be a long one


So my training started yesterday, 13/05/19. I was assigned an instructor who I can say is good. Our first class was pretty good.


We did a lot of story telling, some theory talks and then practicals. In our practical I was able to install an editor, create a folder in my system for the tutorial class, learnt about tags, attributes and values,etc then did some coding, viewed it on the browser and saved. Our class lasted for two hours and we dismissed for the day. My instructor gave me a task to always code or practice for at least 2 hours everyday.


At the end of the day, we scheduled to have three classes a week. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. But for this week, it will be Monday, Thursday and Friday. The classes could be adjusted to suit our personal schedule as he is also a busy person and I also have other jobs I do.

This dairy is just to boast my morale and help me keep up with the training. If you find time, please drop a word of encouragement for me.

I will be adding screenshots of my training/practice from time to time. For now, bye. My next class is on Thursday.

You have been logging-in from various devices WITHOUT LOGGING-OUT.

Your account was logged into from one of those devices
I hope someone else (from one of the devices you didn't log-out from) haven't changed your password and phone number.

Why do you want to learn programming? or better still what do you want to do with it?

Thanks bro, I was using fiddler and chrome network development tester it only showed me the url parameters, and a cookie which I don’t know where it came from . I will try with burp and give you reply .

Thanks man

Hello nairaland
I am an ethical hacker am trying to programmatically log into a website , I successfully gained access nairaland and some other tough sites and it worked because nairaland does have much security for that .

But when I try to login to some other sites it won’t work cus I may not have supplied the right cookie as a real browser would or sometimes there are some client side tokens that are difficult to find out where they where generated .


Abeg who sabi web pentesting very well , make we meet abeg

valzey:
Searching how to hack websites or how to hack Wi-Fi etc..would definitely bring up some tutorial which you can follow and hack but you will never understand why.

So I advice you learn a programming language to open up your brain, learn how networking, ports and how HTTP protocol work.

Once you know a little on making, you can understand a lot on breaking. It will set you apart from the rest.
