Reacher s2 has been a huge let down. Seems everything went to shit from acting to the writing to the realism. I was left wondering what made me rate this show so high in the first place.

potland:
If its foreign movies, you people will be fighting to post reviews but Nigerian movies no way. I'm yet to see a single review of a tribe called Judah on this thread despite the heavy publicity. I don't understand the level of unpatriotism here

Dem hold your hand?

Baddestguyp:
Have I ever said that was the only reason. I'm simply making a bait post to Superhero Fatigue deniers

Well you clearly didn't give any other reason in the post I quoted. You only pointed to one reason hence the assumption. And I said you said it as if. Not that you actually said it. Two different things

But since na bait issoryt

Erenjp:
Thoughts on this?

This movie would have made far more in 2018...
If I say there's Superhero Fatigue, y'all will attack me

You know why people don't take this your opinion serious? Its because you just say it as if that's the only reasons when there are many other reasons this movie is flopping. Saying a movie flops because of superhero fatigue only is just you being short sighted when a couple of superhero movies have been successful this year alone.

Walahi.... Those ppl dey mad.
Is Godzilla: Minus One in Naija cinemas.
I think not, cos na only Aquaman posters I dey see around Island.

zoroby:
This tomato guys

Them nor get joy. Aquaman way I 1 use see front during this holiday, them just rubbish am. Be like say I go watch this Godzilla way dem don dey hype instead.

Erenjp:
Moon Knight was genuinely the worst series I watched in 2022

Only Marvel fanboys could find this show watchable.

Episode 3 of Moon Knight is the worst TV episode I've seen in about 3 years


Shows like Moon Knight being renewed while shows like Warrior being cancelled.

What a world we live in today

Well that's your opinion it was one of the good ones for me. Glad its getting renewed need more of Oscar Isaacs on my screen dude really killed the role ngl.

Warrior might be picked up by netflix fingers crossed.

For those who own GTA V legally theres a role play server on FiveM "Lagos life", if you are interested. Only on pc, and you must have a working mic and headset

It’s not about ease..

Devs should spread their nets..

The JS ecosystem can be limiting…

Front end JS..

Back end JS| Python or PHP, Java, etc.. Something like that.

No need burying themselves in JS ecosystem..

It will ad no value to them. To be honest it hasn’t added any value to most Naija devs.

JS ecosystem is limiting

TS adds no value

Wanted to type a long reply but wetin concern me? Make everybody believe wetin dey 1 believe jare. Can't waste my time stating already existing facts.

Learn what you want jare.

LikeAking:
Those languages you mentioned are great..

I made this post cos the JS ecosystem is messed up with too many irrelevant things.. It’s good for dev to have a number 2 Lang.. Speaking from experience… Instead of learning TS, learn PY.

I really don't understand you. TS is very easy to pick up if you know JS. Its just types. You are still writing JS only difference is you are just adding types to ensure safety. No big deal. TS is something you can pick up in a few hours. It not an entirely new language.

Python is however a different language which will take you more time to learn. Its fine if you want to but there is no reason why you can't learn python and TS. TS you can pick up in a few hours afterwards you can learn your Python.

Yeah TS have some advance concepts but you don't need to know it all at once just know the basic idea around it. You can learn the more advance parts as time goes on or when you need them. The basics will serve you very well.

I don't consider TS a second language. Because its still JS, with types here and there. If you want to learn a second language, TS is not that at all. Its just a superset of JS. But still JS. Python is a different language so that can be your second language if you want.

Kepukepu:
personally, I don't fancy declaring functions with sass. Nor necessarily

Oh there are interesting cases where you will fancy sass functions. But most likely for basic css stuff you don't need to. I last used sass function when building a time picker. It made life so easy.

Kubernetes:
CSS alone doesn't offer the same level of flexibility and ease as a like SCSS when it comes to managing changes throughout a website. It lacks features like nesting, functions etc , which are crucial for efficient and scalable styling.

If you use CSS alone, making widespread changes involves manually finding and modifying each instance of a style property across multiple files which can be time-consuming and error-prone, especially in larger projects.

True but op was talking about variables not nesting or functions. CSS now supports nesting though.

Kubernetes:
But I should prefer SCSS because that approach helps in maintaining consistency and makes it far more manageable when a client requests changes. Instead of manually hunting down each occurrence of a specific style element, you can update the variables and watch those changes propagate across the entire project. It not only saves time but also enhances the flexibility and scalability of web dev projects.

That is what he is saying vanilla css has the same features even better self one might argue especially if you are handling light and dark mode. You can use the same variable name but just change the value base on the theme. This is not possible in sass by the way sass variable are like js const. You cant change their value after declaring them

surzkidoo:
CSS too has built-In variable feature

Its even more intuitive than sass variables in that you can change the value of the variable say in a media query

abduleez1:
Lmao.... So you think you're the first to discover the show.

I've known about the show for a very long time, in fact since 2021 when it debuted. I've had it on my watchlist for years without watching it. And I believe I've talked about that show here before sef before you even knew of it. Na person for here even recommend the show give you. 😂😂😂

There's almost no current HBO major show I don't know of. I fit just no too talk about am.

Did he say he was the first to discover it? He just surprised that certain people are just now talking about it. No where did he say he knew about it before you or claim he is the first nairalander to talk about it.

Your default settings is to attack this guy seeing shades he never threw your way. Person dey jejely dey talk him own, you dey look am as if na you e dey face

XXLDICK:
I prefer the opt-out approach because more often than not, I need the cache for optimisations.

You can change the default behaviour in your vercel.json file.

Below is a picture of a reset I did when I had troubles with caching because I didn't understand it.

Sounds good will try it out whenever I return to nextjs. Thanks

XXLDICK:

NextJs caching works well now. No issue again.

Qwik is stable now. Resumabilty over hydration.

The only downside of qwik is when you click a button or link just immediately after the site loads, it may not respond immediately, just a few milliseconds delay.

NextJs cache has worked well that wasn't what I saying. My problem is that its too aggressive. I feel it should be something you opt in for rather than it being the default state. I had a terrible experience. To opt out you have to individually opt out for the many cache from full route cache to data cache and memoization which are sever caches and also in memory router cache on the client. There was an article I read from one of the guys working on remix on why he doesn't use nextjs and he pointed out this pit fall too. Their new unstable_noStore function trys to fix this and I believe template files too. Haven't use next 14 to confirm if it works but its very much needed.

For qwik yes that milliseconds delay was too obvious and even more than a milliseconds self way back. But if they have improved on it to make it largely unnoticeable that will be good.

XXLDICK:
What is better than NextJs aside from Qwik?
Is there any framework that makes caching easier?
Yes, SSR improves SEO. Is there any framework that can easily get close to 100% lighthouse score compared to NextJs aside from Qwik?

NextJs may have it's disadvantages like vendor lock-in, but their SSR is the best I have seen. Only Remix comes close.

Astro is also good too. You can get good lighthouse score easily but their routing is a major problem. I really like the idea of their islands giving you the ability to use any js framework from react, vue, solidjs and the likes. But I sha couldn't deal with their use of a tag for routing. Not sure if they have fixed this though.

Next aggressive caching is one of the reasons I abandon it. They are now trying to fix it with their noStore function which is good. Their hot reload is not the best either, takes forever to load pages as the app gets bigger. They did promise their next turbo will fix these issues when ready, hopefully they do. There was this epic post I read on this hot reload issue on github. The guy was so blunt and asked some good questions. I will try to find it and send here, he literally spoke my mind and more.

Is Qwik any good? Granted last time I used it was before they got to version 1 but it was very slow to become interactive. I tried it out for a documentation I was writing, I remember once the page loads you will have to click the nav links more than once for it to respond. On Dev it works fine but in Prod na cast. I just jejely comot eye haven't gone back since.

XXLDICK:
The boiler plate code it ships with is for CSS reset.

I am aware vanilla CSS will be more lightweight for a site that is too small. That's why I said Tailwind will be more lightweight most of the time, not all the time.

A clean written CSS will be just exactly as Tailwind does it (atomic) and that is almost impossible to achieve without a framework like Tailwind.

Tailwind should be a must for everyone. Everyone who understands Tailwind can easily modify styles without even inspecting the classes.

Exactly my point not all project needs all those css reset. So its not specific and gives you unnecessary code.

A clean written css is not almost impossible to achieve. Its very much doable. You just need the right convention and more importantly experience writing vanilla. One thing is to learn css the other is to learn to write it effectively which is doable not impossible at all.

I don't conform to this or that is a must. I remember working for a company last year and one of the devs never wrote tailwind once all his classes were beautifully crafted and named that I even had to start using them under certain conditions instead of tailwind classes. Because they were quite frankly so much more efficient. The only downside was the lack of intellisence.

Theres no one size fit all, yes tailwind is easier as it handles all the hassle for you but it doesn't mean its a must. Infact I rather a newbie go through the pain of writing vanilla and learning how to write it effectively than just jumping to tailwind. That's how I learned personally as it makes you very versatile.

That said I will always recommend tailwind for large teams to avoid problems. If not possible ensure your team has a working naming convention, and always have core reusable classes they save you alot of time.

XXLDICK:
You are wrong.

You will get a more lightweight CSS using Tailwind instead of vanilla CSS almost every time.

Tailwind is atomic. And no repeating yourself(DRY).

Not necessarily. It depends on how you write your css. Tailwind by default gives you a couple of boilerplate css code together with what ever classes you used so it adds more code that you probably won't even need in your project.

Try it yourself don't take my word for it creates a simple form with one input and one button style it with vanilla and again with tailwind. Compare the size of the vanilla with that generated by tailwind. Tailwind version will always be bigger if you wrote your vanilla css following best practices.

A clean written vanilla css code will always be more lightweight than tailwind because its more specific as opposed to tailwind which tty to reset everything to cover all possibilities. Obviously you control this to a certain level with postcss but that is besides the point.

silento:
No framework or library that can be as lightweight as the core technology

True but it does have alot of pros. I'd say use what you want but for me tailwind has made frontend faster for me. Can't even think of going back. This is coming from someone who loves vanilla css. I mean I tried learning bootstrap but I just knew it wasn't for me. Vanilla gave me full control. I too didn't want to bother with tailwind but when I heard of how faster it made you, I was like lemme test this theory, and like someone here said tailwind is like crack once you try it you will never go back.

Can't imagine going back to thinking about class names then creating separate css file then importing it. All before writing a single line of css code. With tailwind you just go straight into it. No time wasting, that's the selling point for me really. I am always for anything that makes me faster.

AllDModsAreMaad:
Bros, I really have my mind on this course or skill but I'm seriously finding it difficult to do because I'm currently stock somewhere on the Android Studio software on my PC, but hopefully I will pull through...

Or is there any dev group I can join that you know?

You can try qtguru nexascale on slack not sure if its still active though.

AllDModsAreMaad:
Let me ask you, the language the software I'm using is using is Kotlin.
Which/what should I begin with now, since you said I should first learn the basic of it.

I have basics knowledge of coding because I have done web design and development in the past

Learn the language syntax get comfortable with it. The basics are everything. Then get into the docs. Most times these videos online use old version of different tools its why you might not get the same result as you are most likely using the latest version where one or two things have changed.

With the basics and documentation you should be okay. It won't be easy learning new stuff isn't easy normally but the trick is to keep at it. If you are using an external library go to the docs. Granted some people's docs are all over the place. But it helps a lot especially if you are following a video as you can see if there's any breaking changes.

Self learning is hard you have to put in a lot of work.

AllDModsAreMaad:
I have tried the online tutorial but to be honest one need a guide.

I started the app development training myself but something happened, maybe I clicked on something and I couldn't get the exact result the tutor in the video got.
So, I deleted that project and tried starting another one but it is not getting that result that the person got in the video.
It is not even creating the two folders that were created when I created the first project.

That alone has made it a dead end because without a guide I can't scale through that part.

The problem is you haven't learnt the basics. Try to go back to the foundation of whatever language you are learning. Don't skip the basics and jump to building complicated stuffs. You will be lost.

what matters in your case whether you are muslim , Indu, or christian does not matter because you are demented and useless about anything or everything.

Ah e enter him soul

See tears everywhere Make I go find umbrella biko

First him drop fallacies I slap am twa twa! He nor fit talk the only thing him mind fit talk na religion. He nor even sabi guess well self I con punch am again with facts bwa bwa

E con confess say biko nor be religion again . He don lose 2 :0 for there na to throw insult remain all him facts I just dey tear them down wotowoto.

Pele keep the tears coming

As e dey pain them he go dey sweet us

baysol:
Obviously like all terrorists like you with demented ideology . They always think they are the better informed even if they are fed with false tales by arabian night stories from their quoran and turbaned unlearned imams. You have given your naivitude away to cheaply. Gerarahere, I don't talk to terrorist hass wholes.

E pain am

Spoken like a true delusional fellow. I am not a muslim I am a Christian. So keep the tears coming I love to see it.

Again its not my fault you are ignorant and are struggling to understand simple facts. That one nor concern me but when you try even for a tiny bit to show off your ignorance as fact in public I will beat ya ass with blunt corrections ignorance is not an excuse in public. You must come correct of be ready to face the music

Eyah pele nor cry again. Next time do small Google search before you type to safe yourself from this embrassment.

Always keep this in mind sha that

Loki god of stories. Crazy stuff! This probably makes him one of the most powerful characters in MCU. Definitely the best thing to come out of Disney+

DaChosenOne:
Boy, I don't care about your opinion. You are wasting your time trying to prove that Israel is the problem and not those muslim terrorists. I hate Islam and muslims. I say that openly. I hate them like hate Nazis. Islam is a barbaric cult and African men are too stupid to realise it. Unsurprising though. I don't care about Ethiopian Jews. Why the opinion of an Ethiopian Jew be important to me? Israel will become my enemy when they start waging war on the world and terrorising people like muslims and Arabs too. The world's stands with Israel due to global threat of Islamic terrorism.

Again missing the point by a mile. I don't have a dog in this fight because I don't engage with children. Even our small conversation self it shows you haven't matured enough to think critically that you even think I am trying to prove Isreal is one thing or the other just further buttress my point.

The point is the guy you were talking to said Isrealis are racist. He gave example of the Ethiopian Jews. You were like you can't believe anything he says because he is allegedly a muslim. Then I was like nor be so. Oya lemme accept your stance that you can't believe muslims. I gave you an account of an Ethiopian jew instead. Taking away your excuse for ignoring the point.

Instead of you to then address it like a normal human being. Na shalaye express you enter. Like I have said we know you don't like muslims. That has been established, repeating again just shows you have nothing to say on this point.

The point is not about muslims, I have remove everything muslim about it. But its clear your childishness will not allow you to have a deep and enlightening conversation. So I won't bother again. Do well to be better

baysol:
Who the hell is this? Are you so naive as they call you? Who invited you to my space. Does it mean because you have a demented view over issues, other people must not speak their mind? If you are that pained go and join hamas in the nearest rat hole you can find them in Gaza. Be warned if you come into my space again you will recieve more than this kind token.

Lol I didn't know you were a mad man

Its not my fault you are poorly informed, take your frustration elsewhere. If you don't want to be corrected then ensure what you post in public is accurate. I stand by my corrections if you like warn your grandfather let heaven fall we dey here dey wait. Obviously you can't defend the fallacy you posted na to bark like hungry dog remain

Do well to hug a transformer while you're at it because I will always point out falsehood when and wherever I see it

As e dey pain them e go dey sweet us

DaChosenOne:
I don't need to learn anything from muslims or Islam. Anymore than I need to learn from Nazis. I reject the satanic barbaric cult of Islam. Its followers can kiss my ass. I support Israel and any nation fighting against Islam or muslims. India over Pakistan. Burma over Bangladesh. African muslims are dumbest Africans on earth.

The Ethiopian Jew in the article I sent is she Muslim? Use your head please. We have already established your prejudice repeating it again is just sounding like a broken record. I gave an account of an Ethiopian Jew not Muslim. Instead of reading and learning something new, na dust you dey yarn. See why I said you should grow up?

Who has south Africa noise making helped? They have not called for any restrain or repremanded the bloody event in Israel only jumping into the band wagon which will not help anything or anyone. It would have been better to be neutral and play silent diplomatic strategy similar to the one done in Ukraine . Trust me, it may seem doomed for failure, but it will work because at the end of all this sqamishes, both parties will still come to the round table. My take is, why waste so much lives before then especially innocent lives of women and children even most painful is the hardworking lives of men bread winners who have been killed in the name of Hamas. It's so sad that humanity has degraded to this low state that even looking around you nowadays it's more safer to have a pet as friend that humans....the last days trully are upon us all (2 Timothy 3:1-5), as these entire senerio is inconsistent, incoherent, unsustainable and dangerous.

Are you sure you are well informed because some of your statements shows you aren't. SA hasn't called for end to the conflict. So you were sleeping when they did that as early as 8th of October?

SA band wagon? SA has always supported the struggles of Palestinians since they got free from apartied way back when. Please do well to check these things so you are better informed
