I said [the apprentice]] sucks, and you expect me to be watching it and keeping track? Its as simple as this. The show sends the unrealistic message that there's always a clear winner and loser in business.

alarinjo:

how can African farmers gain access to the global economy if our European and American "trading partners" continue to put up insurmountable road blocks, e.g. subsidization of American/European farmers such that African farmers cannot cope with their prices?

Why shouldn't they subsidize it for their own people?

So are you guy saying that the network based standalone programs used by Banks for example are unrealistic and unefficient?

Or the standalone network based printing softwares used in companies for printing pool are unrealistic and unefficient?

Kazey, you are confusing your self.
Are we sharing knowledge or trying to prove that we are smarter? shocked

This is according to wikipedia which goes accordance with my definitions.

A thin client is a network computer without a hard disk drive, which, in client/server applications, is designed to be especially small so that the bulk of the data processing occurs on the server.


A thick client (also known as a fat client or rich client) is a client that performs the bulk of any data processing operations itself, and relies on the server it is associated with primarily for data storage. Although the term usually refers to software, it can also apply to a network computer that has relatively strong processing abilities.

Stand-alone is a loaded word, used to categorise computer programs. The term tries to draw some distinction [/b]between pr[b]ograms invoked by some computer event and those invoked by other programs. However this distinction does not stand up to scrutiny, since the computer has usually to be running some program that prepares (and sometimes initially processes) the "stand-alone" program to begin with. Hence all programs are launched or prepared/processed by other programs (with the sole exception of the bootstrap loader), and no code can really be said to stand alone.

In software engineering, a web application—sometimes called a webapp and much less frequently a weblication—is an application that's accessed with a web browser over a network such as the Internet or an intranet. Web applications are popular due to the ubiquity of the browser as a client, sometimes called a thin client.


THIS THREAD IS ABOUT WEB BASED VS STANDALONE KAPISH. smiley

Programming / Re: Web Based Software Vs Standalone Solution by kazey(m): 10:31am On Jun 23, 2006
Our tackling is quiet ambiguous. A standalone software is a software that has no dependencies, which means it is on its own terminal and run within its own terminal without any dependencies.

A Web based software is that which resides on a server and is accessed through a web browser whilst the processing occurs at the server end.

A Thin client can be both web based and also a desktop based one, as long the as the (client) depends on a client-server architecture for functionality, so it has to depend primarily on the central server for processing activities.

A Thin client doesn’t necessarily describe a standalone nor a web based application.

Yes it does. All they need is a pre-requisite English qualification of world wide approval such as Ielts or TOEFL.

Programming / Re: Web Based Software Vs Standalone Solution by kazey(m): 9:39am On Jun 23, 2006
My argument is preety simple. Both Standalone and Web Based Softwares can offer equal functionalities although sometimes in ERP apps for example where you have lots of multi-threading they might be some functionalities that can't be accomodated on the web.

Cost wise they are literally the same, its all about preference.

This thread is about Web Based Softwares and Standalone Solutions and the functionalities both can present, besides the upper edge they might have over one another.

Whats your preference and why?

ok my bad grin I need to go back to oyinbo classes.

We are talking about economics here besides smiley I said economically poor? Infrastructure? Income? Trade differentials? GDP? etc etc.

Rephrased:
I mean is this theory applicable to only a specific geographical continent, that is Africa?
Politics / Re: No Ethnicity On Census Meant To Hide Past Lies by kazey(m): 9:19am On Jun 23, 2006
hehe very interesting. But its unfortunate that you do not have written facts to support your theories. And by the way we have Bauchi, Sokoto, Zamfara, Katsina and co, you forgot to mention them smiley

Before I give a response to this thread, I would like to ask some questions directed to all the thread readers.

Is USA, China and even India classified economically poor considering their population and size?

1. China 1,306,313,812
2. India 1,080,264,388
3. United States 295,734,134

Is it angels that build the current system of the exceptional South Africa?

Is this article more of Specific on geographical application, In regards to the Size and the Instability factor?

Quotes:

Countries with a large land mass and sizeable population tend to be chronically unstable. They perform poorly economically, even thought many are rich in natural resources and all have established internal markets. They have been among the least successful in overcoming the early post-colonial legacy of single-party or military regimes and in moving toward democracy. Forty-plus years after independence, most are still struggling to find a political system capable of holding together their diverse populations.

The only true exception is South Africa. Though still facing a host of major socioeconomic problems, South Africa is a functioning state with both the strong administrative system and the transport and communication infrastructure that allow modern states to implement policies, collect taxes, and deliver services in return.

seeker:

Oga, Kazey. I'm sure that Brunei has more per capital oil than nigeria. What do you think Delta state, or Bayelsa would be like if it kept all it's oil revenue, even after making provisions for corruption at the going rate.

well if you say so, but I don't think they want to, rather its the leaders and the ibgo's making all the trouble. Besides their allocation is more than what other states get considering their size. Where does the excess go?
Politics / Re: Igbo President: What Will Nigeria Turn Into? by kazey(m): 8:49am On Jun 23, 2006
Trying to be an un-igbo as possible. heheheh.

Ikwere (or Ikwerre, Ikwerri) is an Igboid language spoken by over 980,000 people (according to the 1991 census) in Nigeria.

Igboid is a branch of the Benue-Congo language family. It includes the Igbo language and other related languages spoken mainly in southeastern Nigeria.

Interesting. So whats the big fuss the main IGBO people are making? Na wa o.
Politics / Re: Igbo President: What Will Nigeria Turn Into? by kazey(m): 8:45am On Jun 23, 2006
Are you sure Ikwere are not outkast?
Politics / Re: Igbo President: What Will Nigeria Turn Into? by kazey(m): 8:41am On Jun 23, 2006
Anigboinam:

You know what? If giving all the OIL in Nigeria would allow the Igbos to succeed from Nigeria. Allow them to determine there own path. I would agree to it in a minute,

Igbos forever be in this hell hoping on Yorubas or Hausas to save Nigeria. Pissing me off.

Firstly I don't give a Dem about succession or not, but one fact I am quiet sure of is that the resources of Nigeria are not located in Anambra, Enugu, Onitsha Owerri, and even Enugu?

Port Harcourt is a city located in the Niger Delta in Nigeria. Rivers state to be exact. It is inhabited by the Ikwerre and Ijaw people. Or Since did the Ikwerre and Ijaw stop being an Outkast and a brethen of the Igbo's? When it came to petrol issue? Or am I missing something?

Or are Oyibo's Igbo's?
Politics / Re: Should Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala (Now Foreign Minister) Resign? by kazey(m): 8:15am On Jun 23, 2006
one of her aides said the minister had an important assignment to attend to.

“She (Okonjo-Iweala) had a scheduled assignment to handle. Besides, it is not compulsory that all serving ministers must be present when new ones are taking their oath of office. So there is nothing unusual about her not being present,” the aide said.

“You know that the minister (Okonjo-Iweala) was, as at Wednesday, one of the key kitchen cabinet members. It is likely that she stayed away from the ceremony as a way of showing her displeasure over her redeployment”.

Haha funny. There is nothing to defend my brother smiley. You might construct anything in words to make yourself happy, but the reality of things is what makes up the man inside you. I am a man that lives in a realistic world. Not the world of "I love white people and I know the total number of whitemen that have been to my house".

Art, Graphics & Video / Re: Photography Lovers In The House by kazey(m): 4:35am On Jun 23, 2006
There is a huge difference between pornography and Erotica. The displayed first picture depicts a template for human beauty expressed in photography. If you are real true lover of photography you would know better.

Erotica (from the Greek language Eros - "love") — are works of art, including literature, photography, film, sculpture and painting, that deal substantively with erotically stimulating or arousing descriptions. Erotica is rather a modern word used to describe the portrayal of human sensuality and sexuality with high-art aspirations, differentiating such work from commercial pornography.
