Nairaland / General / Re: Embark On An Unforgettable Adventure With Campervan Hire In Perth From Australia by HassieMalcomson(f): 11:55am On Aug 12
Perth is one of my favourite places to visit in Australia. Mainly, I love its beaches. Likewise, if you want to swim with family and want to get an excellent fishing experience, you must choose City Beach. Similarly, if you love surfing and want to pick one of the most beautiful places in Perth, you shouldn't ignore Cottesloe Beach.

You can seamlessly access this place through bus, train or even a campervan. During my last trip to Perth, I took a campervan by clicking here and got a fine vehicle. Yes, you can use this site to book a campervan for your Perth trip. In this regard, you would have to customize the research and add pick location, drop-off location and date for improved experience.

By the same token, Trigg Island Beach is also the home of surfers. This turquoise water offers great mental peace, and you will also love its pure sand. Some other places that you must visit could be Rottnest Island and Scarborough Beach.

Programming / Re: What Other Alternative To Heroku by HassieMalcomson(f): 11:20am On Jul 02
Although Heroku is my all-time favorite cloud computing solution, its Dynos (smart containers) provide a dockerized environment for deploying applications effortlessly. However, since Heroku ended its free tier, it has become challenging for low-budget developers to continue using this outstanding service.

Fortunately, I found several Heroku alternatives here https://blog.back4app.com/heroku-alternatives/ that are helpful for deploying and running Git-based repositories. Yes, you can consider using Fly, Back4app Containers, Render and DigitalOcean Platform as an alternative to Heroku. Firstly, Render is an ultrafast cloud computing solution that deploys applications in three simple steps.

Correspondingly, it is free to begin using Back4app Containers, and you even have to enter your credit card details. Indeed, this platform can set up Git-hosted codes with zero configuration. On the other hand, App Platform by DigitalOcean is also a viable option. This PaaS offering provides a fully managed infrastructure to build, deploy and run applications.

TV/Movies / Re: Chinese Drama Series by HassieMalcomson(f): 9:41am On Mar 18
They seem like old Chinese dramas. I think you should try watching new C-dramas with more romance, better technology and action. If I talk about modern Chinese dramas, then I would suggest this list:

- Nothing but Thirty
- The Oath of Love
- Love Like the Galaxy
- You Are My Glory
- The Untamed
- The King's Woman

Similarly, if you are an admirer of Chinese romantic shows, then simply follow this list https://digitalcruch.com/best-romantic-chinese-dramas/ or have a look at these shows. Mainly, I love The Long Ballad and My Lethal Man's romance. Have a look:

- When I Fly Towards You
- The Long Ballad
- Hidden Love
- Fireworks of My Heart
- Intense Love
- Exclusive Fairytale
- The Last Immortal



By the way, a new Chinese show is also airing on Netflix nowadays, and its name is Amidst a Snowstorm of Love. It looks very interesting and begins with a snowstorm.

Business / Re: How To Polish Engineered Wood Floors – You Should Know by HassieMalcomson(f): 4:45pm On Dec 26, 2023
Thanks for sharing such an informative thread. Although the concept of engineered wood floors is a little new for many households but its benefits are remarkable. First of all, if we compare the pricing, these wood floors are economical compared to hardwood floors. Probably, many users debate over its durability over hardwood flooring options, but I think a 30-year life span with an affordable price is still a good choice.

On the other hand, if we talk about cleaning, it is also easy than hardwood flooring, and wet mopping is possible. However, the maintenance of engineered wood floors sounds a little tricky compared to hardwood. Although you can sweep and vacuum them daily but I think the use of quality polishing also enhances the durability. In this regard, the utilization of high-quality tung or linseed oil would be effective. Or you can simply apply this https://priorypolishes.co.uk/product/liberon-superior-danish-oil/ oil based on top-quality tung oil. These types of polishes confer great protection against water, alcohol, and heat.

However, to keep it clean and stable for a long period of time, you should avoid applying chemicals on engineered floors. Correspondingly, don't use sandpaper and vinegar-based cleaning sprays. Best of luck!

Education / Re: 7 Techniques For Using AI In Web Development by HassieMalcomson(f): 8:40am On Dec 10, 2023
This is an interesting thread. Let's talk about the potential ways AI could be used in the web development industry:

- AI helps web applications improve their user experiences. In this regard, AI offers well-trained chatbots to businesses.

- With the powerful backing of AI, Natural Language Processing (NLP) confers more personalized search engine results to users. So they can get search results based on their previous queries.

- Similarly, the use of AI in full-stack development is also enhanced. Many cloud service providers successfully use AI for different tech stacks. For example, Back4app uses AI Agent to build highly interactive and modern applications through its CaaS and BaaS offerings. This guide https://blog.back4app.com/ai-web-application-development/ presents all the steps involved in web development through AI.

- AI also offers an additional layer of security regarding cyberattacks and provides a protected environment to conduct online payments. Yes, AI can easily identify anomalies in case of any extortion.

- Other uses of AI in web development could be helpful for content generation, SEO and examining data.
Programming / Re: Back-end Development Is So Boring And I Hate It. by HassieMalcomson(f): 3:52pm On Nov 10, 2023
It sounds good that you came up with a serious question. Both frontend and backend development have great significance in the programming world. Although I love backend development but if you like working on the client side of an application, it is also great. UI/UX has great value in the success of an application, and I recommend you learn all in-demand front-end technologies, including HTML, CSS, React, and Vue.js. The yearly salary of an average frontend developer is around $112,277, which is a good thing.

But you should make sure you are the best in your field. On the contrary, there are several services available to manage your backend. Likewise, you can choose cloud computing solutions like IaaS, BaaS, or PaaS to manage your server-side resources, networking, authentication, and database management. You can simply utilize sources like this https://blog.back4app.com/backend-infrastructure/#How_to_create_a_backend_infrastructure to create your backend infrastructure through a BaaS vendor and emphasize frontend development.

Firebase, AWS Amplify, and Backendless could be reliable solutions to deal with the backend of an application. However, it would be great if you would have some knowledge about backend technologies like NodeJS, PHP, Python, Django, RoR, and ExpressJS in hand.
Programming / Re: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by HassieMalcomson(f): 10:02am On Nov 01, 2023
If you don't have any knowledge then simply begin with HTML and CSS.
Programming / Re: Build A Social Site Like Facebook Twitter Instagram With Our Templates by HassieMalcomson(f): 2:02pm On Oct 22, 2023
Thanks for your offer, mate. I want to build a social media application that should be similar to Twitter but it should allow the users to chat and send friend requests like Facebook. In this regard, I am willing to go with an AI tool to quickly design an application like this. Yes, when I did online research, I found Builder AI a good solution to develop such apps but I am not sure whether it has templates or not and how much control I would have over this platform.

On the other hand, my dev fellows recommended me get proper control over the application and code it well. Hereof, I am considering this guide https://blog.back4app.com/how-to-develop-a-social-media-app/ to script an application with JS frameworks and runtimes and then deploy it on CSPs like Back4app or Firebase. Both look good when it comes to user authentication, notifications, real-time database management and cloud messaging.

So, if I choose your service, would you be able to code the entire application with JavaScript? Are these templates custom-designed or have you bought them somewhere? Hopefully, you will give me good suggestions.
Programming / Re: Help On Deployment On Heroku by HassieMalcomson(f): 2:23pm On Oct 10, 2023
The Heroku key can only be accessed if you have exposed it to the client side. However, if your case is different, then you should approach the setting option and proceed with the config. Here, you should enable this: heroku config: set SECRET_KEY="...". Yes, the Heroku environment is considered highly secure if you keep the key secret.

On the other hand, it is also important that you follow the right method to deploy your application on Heroku. If you are using GitHub, then you can simply go with this source https://blog.back4app.com/deploy-to-heroku/ and it will answer all of your queries about deployment. Also, don't forget to utilize protected places to store keys like Heroku Config Vars and Heroku add-ons.

You should also rotate the keys to avoid unauthorized access. Hopefully, it will also help you.
Fashion / Re: Where To Sell My Gold Jewellery For The Best Price by HassieMalcomson(f): 12:10pm On Jul 22, 2023
Thanks for sharing such an informative thread. I would also like to give my input in this regard:

First of all, you must be aware of the recent price of gold per ounce or carat. You would be in good condition to argue about the cost of your jewellery with the buyer.

Secondly, it is good to sell your gold to a reputed buyer. In this regard, you should check its Better Business Bureau (BBB) ratings online and examine the GIA certification. Or if you are selling gold to an Australian buyer like this ( https://www.goldbuyersmelbourne.com.au/ ), the company must have a Second-Hand dealer' license. For further inquiries, you can also consider viewing the local laws and regulations.

Similarly, it is good to sell your gold for cash instead of bank or online payments.

Moreover, you should visit different stores and ask them to examine your gold to know its price. Then, you should compare the prices and go with the best option.
Programming / Re: Javascript by HassieMalcomson(f): 7:05pm On Jul 09, 2023
Javascript is one of my favourite programming languages because you can't only use it for frontend but it is also suitable for backend tasks. However, I don't only recommend YouTube tutorials to learn JS but you can also consider these options:

FreeCodeCamp
Khan Academy
Mozilla Development Network (MDN)
Codecademy

Similarly, you can also try reading bookings related to Javascript and coding boot camps could also be trusted options in this regard. After having basic knowledge of JS, you should start writing small codes. No doubt, you can seamlessly host these codes on GitHub and deploy them on Back4app (https://www.back4app.com/deploy-javascript-applications) to check how your JS-scripted app is looking. Hopefully, these suggestions will assist you in learning Javascript quickly.

Programming / Re: "Understanding Chat Gpt: A Beginner's Guide To This AI Technology" by HassieMalcomson(f): 11:44am On May 07, 2023
Thanks for sharing such an important thread. Indeed, artificial intelligence is the future of technology. If we particularly talk about ChatGPT then it is an AI Chatbot that could be used for several purposes. Though you have discussed the ChatGPT so, I would like to share its uses in different ways in this thread.

- First of all, ChatGPT could help programmers in writing quality codes in less time and with errors. You can use ChatGPT to write codes and in this regard, you should be aware of its right use. Mainly, it is super easy to write Java codes with this AI technology.

- Impressively, ChatGPT also made the development of applications very smooth. Businesses can employ ChatGPT to write frontend codes and use backend development platforms like Backendless, AWS or Back4app to perform backend tasks. I recently benefit from this source https://blog.back4app.com/how-to-create-an-app-using-chatgpt/ to build excellent applications with ChatGPT and honestly, it saves lots of money and time.

- Similarly, in the digital marketing world, content is king. Indeed, it is convenient to write outstanding articles and blogs with the help of this AI technology. However, you also have good editorial and proofreading skills with AI tools. However, don't misuse this tool for writing tasks where manual writing is required.

- Moreover, you can use premium versions of ChatGPT to build engaging CVs, resumes and diet plans. Hopefully, it will give you the best results.
Programming / Re: Building An API In Node.js And Taking It Live On A VPS by HassieMalcomson(f): 4:40pm On Apr 22, 2023
Deicide:
All my hommies, real niggas use curl cool

I was referring Postman API Platform. Hopefully, you are aware of this.
Programming / Re: Building An API In Node.js And Taking It Live On A VPS by HassieMalcomson(f): 11:03am On Apr 22, 2023
This video tutorial looks good but there are several easy ways to build APIs. Likewise, you can build, test, deploy and publish APIs through Akana. It allows you to build APIs through existing resources and even from scratch. I found Akana a very user-friendly API platform. However, you can also pick cloud computing and simple API creation platforms in this regard.

Likewise, you can use the BaaS platform Back4app to quickly build and launch an API by using the free tier. Yes, you can approach the Console option under the 'API' category here. Or if it is still complicated to understand then simply use this source https://blog.back4app.com/how-to-build-a-graphql-api/ to seamlessly build GraphQL APIs with Back4App. Yes, I like going with GraphQL because it's flexible querying options.

On the other hand, the use of Postman and RapidAPI could be simple and fast platforms to robustly build and launch APIs.
Business / Re: Benefits Of A Virtual Assistant To A Career Professional Starting A Business by HassieMalcomson(f): 9:49am On Apr 16, 2023
Thanks for sharing such a detailed thread. Virtual assistance is definitely giving a variety of benefits to businesses and startups. You mentioned worth-reading pros here but I would also like to mention some of the extraordinary benefits hereof:

- First of all, businesses can save time in hiring, conducting interviews and teaching technical skills to teams. VA providers like this https://remotecoworker.com/ are already good at understanding your requirements and permit you to emphasize core competencies.

- Similarly, when you outsource assistance from abroad you don't have to offer them health care or further country-based compensation. Indeed, it is cheap to hire VA from developing countries.

- By the same token, if you are working on time-centric tasks then the use of VA could be ideal. Your team would be from time zones and able to handle time-related tasks easily compared to in-house staff.

- Better customer service, high productivity and scalability are also advantages of using virtual assistance to grow businesses.
Business / Re: What A Freight Forwarder Can Do For You. by HassieMalcomson(f): 10:15am On Apr 03, 2023
Thanks for writing such a detailed thread. Freight forwarders are definitely doing a job in importing and exporting goods internationally. So, whether you are using air cargo, trucking service, ocean carriers or railway operators to ship your products, these are freight forwards who can efficiently deal with your delivery requirements. Or in other words, with the complete knowledge of compliance requirements, logistics and regulatory policies of different countries, freight forwarders are assisting in expanding international trade.

However, it is good to compare the quote of different logistics companies and forwarders through directories like this https://www.freightforwarderservices.com/ to avail of the perfect option in your area or country. Some additional advantages of using flight forwards are:

- You can save money because they can give you reasonable rates especially if you need to ship large volumes.

- With the help of these services, you can get the right capacity without facing the problem of less space.

- Similarly, international shipping allows businesses to emphasize core competencies and they can save the time and energy that they invest in logistics management.

Nairaland / General / Re: The Benefits Of A Taper Fade For Curly Hair by HassieMalcomson(f): 8:37am On Mar 16, 2023
No doubt, a taper fade haircut could be a great idea if you have curly hair. However, you can choose several taper fade cuts for your curly hair. Likewise, if you need a unique look then try long afro curls with a taper fade cut. This taper haircut will enable you to carry long curls. Similarly, flat-top curls and buzz-cut curls are two different choices but give you very trending looks.

On the contrary, the trend of loose curls with taper cuts is very popular among youngsters. You can also wear accessories like gold chains etc with such cuts. Top brushy hair curls, fuzzy-looking taper and taper with boxed braids are also good choices hereof.

Business / Re: What's The Cost Of Starting A Massage Parlor Business And How Profitable Is It? by HassieMalcomson(f): 3:19pm On Mar 14, 2023
I don't think it is expensive to open a massage parlour as a beginner especially if you are not going to operate with many clients at a single time. Yes, I am referring to a small massage centre with a single massage therapy room with 2 clean beds. You can simply read this guide https://www.wellness-fee.ch/EN/massage-business-model.htm to understand everything from supplies, pricing and partnership details.

However, if we talk about the price you probably have to pay N2500 for a land lease, N4000 for an electricity bill and 4,000 for fuel and generator maintenance could be around N5,000. So, it could be a total of around N15,000. By the way, you can add or exclude different expenses according to your plan. I just shared a rough estimation.
Fashion / Re: Female Hair Cut Styles In Nigeria: Trending Low Cut Hairstyles by HassieMalcomson(f): 7:57am On Feb 28, 2023
These short haircuts are awesome and I am a big fan of side shaved haircuts especially when you add a design. However, I think Nigerian girls also look pretty in long haircuts with trendy butterfly styles and in this regard, I am also sharing a few images below:





No doubt, if you have black and straight hair and you try a butterfly haircut like these https://beardoholic.com/butterfly-haircut/ and curl them a little, it suits you a lot. On the other hand, curly haircuts have their own charm. Yes, I love these kinds of wavy hair but honestly, my hairs are not that thick so I never tried such haircuts or style. But these girls are looking so sleek.



Programming / Re: Containers by HassieMalcomson(f): 2:37pm On Feb 24, 2023
Yes, I love to build and deploy Docker containers for my applications because of their amazing benefits. Likewise, containers are lightweight because they are based on an underlined operating system that also keeps its file size minimum. Similarly, containers are high products and you will have to consume less overhead on them.

Although you can explore more about containers from here https://blog.back4app.com/how-to-deploy-docker-container/#How_do_Containers_Work about their operations and benefits but I think containers give the best performance when you use them with Docker. Indeed, Docker containers provide numerous benefits and their deployment is super easy after the arrival of cloud computing services. They are portable and highly secure with rapid deployment approaches.

This image can also assist you in understanding how a containerized application works and how it is different from virtual machines.

Science/Technology / Re: Conversational AI Chatbot | Conversational AI Platform by HassieMalcomson(f): 6:17pm On Feb 21, 2023
CoRover definitely looks like a cool platform to build and deploy chatbots with artificial intelligence. But what about the businesses or individuals who want rule-based or hybrid chatbots for their applications? Actually, I designed a React.js application with the backing of a BaaS platform and now, I want a chatbot for it. According to this platform, I can follow this article https://blog.back4app.com/chatbot-in-react-js/ to quickly build a chatbot in React.js but I want more customized technology and I want a third-party tool.

Your suggestion seems reliable but I am not sure whether it supports rule-based chatbots or not. Also, I would like to know your thoughts about different platforms like Chatbot.com and Dialogflow. Or in other words, you can recommend to me the best options for React.js.

Or is there any chatbot development platform that supports all of these types?

- State
- Intelligence
- Service Area
- Platform
Education / Re: What's The Best Cloud Platform: Microsoft Azure Or Google Cloud? by HassieMalcomson(f): 9:42am On Feb 17, 2023
I like Azure because it provides you with a big set of features and services and it is very easy to utilize them. Yes, Azure allows the development teams to use its products without having expertise in Microsoft or any computing background. However, if we talk about better pricing and cheap storage properties then you can give more marks to Google Cloud. It is also very simple to use its PaaS products like Google App Engine. Yes, you can easily find Google App Engine among different PaaS examples like these but it is hard to find Azure among these vendors.

So, it could be a setback for Azure. Similarly, when it comes to filing storage, I prefer Google Cloud Firestore instead of Azure because of its approach to NAS and it's quickly integrates with Google Kubernetes Engine. On the other hand, Azure depends on conventional SMB protocol. The only thing that I don't like about Google Cloud products is their vendor lock-in policy. I think Google should change it as soon as possible.
Fashion / Re: Best Beard Shampoo And Oil For Real Men by HassieMalcomson(f): 2:24pm On Feb 13, 2023
I heard a lot about this shampoo and looks like a good option to regrow beard hair. However, I want to know whether you purchased it from a local dealer or imported it from abroad. Actually, I am about to use this recipe https://beardoholic.com/how-to-make-beard-shampoo/ to make a DIY shampoo for my husband this valentine but if a good product is available in the market then I can try your ones.

However, if I choose the 'BE MY Beard' brand then instead of buying a single bottle of shampoo, I would like to go with a complete kit that must have shampoo, oil and conditioner. That is why you need to share the availability of all of these items. On the contrary, if you don't have this shampoo share your thoughts on my shared DIY recipe for making a beard shampoo.
Education / Re: What Is Cloud Computing? A Beginner's Guide by HassieMalcomson(f): 11:37am On Feb 12, 2023
This thread is detailed. Honestly, I am looking to understand these cloud computing models and their deployments. Though I have some experience of using BaaS platforms but nowadays, I am willing to learn how to deploy applications on PaaS platforms. Can you provide any video content or YouTube channel that teaches how to utilize PaaS platforms?

Secondly, as an expert, do you think these https://blog.back4app.com/advantages-and-disadvantages-of-paas/ are actual pros and cons that beginners face while using a PaaS platform? Also, what platform you will recommend for novices? Likewise, Heroku looks very good because of its easy interface. Do you think I should prefer Heroku? Or I should go with AWS because of its physical data centres all around the globe?

Share your thoughts.
