it seems you have not comprehended the use if indentation.

when debugging, try to read the error.Here the system will indicate the line the error occurred.

Don't be too hysteric, it's going to happen in the far future hopefully. And yah what you're learning is good enough keep on. I repeat it might not happen in a long time. Even though technology is moving faster than its shadow we should remember that AI is code and code must have bugs. What I am trying to say is please be careful and be ready for anything, a change could happen at anytime. It's as annoying as death.
What will you have a person just venturing into IT learn in this 2020( web vs app vs Data science). With respect to entry into labour market and its saturation with the future in view.

Please leave data structures and algorithms for now and learn the frameworks and the libraries. Learn the practical now. Knowledge of data structures and algorithms is only used to ace job interviews. You can start learning it once you are actively job hunting.

Your projects and the stuff you build whilst learning is what is even going to get you to the interview stage which is most times a data structures and algorithms test or a take home test.

The issue here is that, I don't know the stack to concentrate on,(web vs app vs data science).
The previous op @ front page that has almost all technology skills and nothing to show for it.

I don't want to burn midnight candles for years and later on see it has a hobby.

Learn it as a hobby, because very soon the big bourgeoisie will replace us with machines. undecidedundecided that is when you will understand what unemployment is.

What of beginners that's just starting the journey??

Due to this sheer confusion, I currently concentrate on learning Data structure and Algorithm. All frameworks and library learning are being suspended.

Everyone is clamoring learn IT, learn It. Now hin don become hobby.

Education / Re: Professor Is Not Higher Than A Phd. by Meel: 9:31pm On Jul 25, 2020
Few years back, people with the title prof seems like a academic god to me. But recently that I unlearn somethings( don't lemme use the word know more), then I realised it is synonymous to a Chieftance title.
I don't know of other climes, but here in Nigeria academic environment, some so called profs research acumen can be equated to a National Diploma holders own.
Nepotism and corruption has totally ridden our academic environment, that anyone with any form of exchange medium ( cash, sex for mark) will get to the pinnacle of academic career.

Majority of the so called profs/PhD, dont care about the core of academics( teaching and research). They are just in it for the appellations and financial gratifications.

In Germany you have to be careful with body language when communicating with people. That style of handshake or hand movement that is a form of greeting in your home country, can be considered a symbol of hate in Germany.

An example is raising your right hand in the air to greet someone. If you do that, the police will surround you and arrest you on charges of hate. That is a sign of Hitler. Some people don’t know this. They don’t play with anything associated with Hitler. Any handshake, body movement, symbols that was used by Nazis, is totally forbidden and can get you arrested.

You know how some Nigerian guys would raise their right hand up to greet their friends and say “my chairman, I salute you, boss, twale”.... if you try that in Germany you can be arrested for imitating Hitler. Same goes for those personalized handshakes you see as normal. They won’t care if you’re black or white, you will be arrested and charged.

So yeah, it is very important that you educate yourself about this. You can google about the hand movements and handshakes that were used by the Nazis, so you understand what I’m talking about.
Why is anything related to Hitler forbbiden??

Is it that they don't want to reminsce in there past? Or they still adore him??

And if saluting is not allowed, how the military officers greet??

The volunteering doctors are banking on the State government to sack the striking doctors , so that they can be gainfully employed.

But the situation of things in this country is so bad that , medical practitioners are will to work in the most inhumane environment just to get a Job.

Programming / Re: At 40, Can I Still Learn Programming And Be Good At It? by Meel: 12:45pm On Jul 16, 2020
saajus:
It's possible depends on your seriousness. Javascript, Python and a database, maybe SQL or MongoDB. Javascript is a bit easy and can introduce you to the world of programming. It's not really about the language but understanding the basic concept of OOP is very important. Someone who knows Java can learn Python within one month. The same concept but a few syntax changes.
Phone application development is a very hot cake now.

Can someone proficient in Python( grounded in its Ds and Algorithm) also learn Java within a month.

I understand the perspective the op that justified the action of scammmers is speaking from.
But the thing about scammers is that they don't stop , it gets so addictive that they make a living from it. Majority of them say they indulge in it because they are poor , lack working capital. The story changes after the first cash out. After getting the first dough, instead of thinking of investing the money gotten from the proceeds, they move on to get designers, expensive phones , spend on whores , compete in clubs ( casket). They then make a trade out of it.

I was formerly sympathetic to them, but i then realized the crime was not due to poverty but to fund there life style. I was once a Lautech ( hub of scammers) student, so I have a first hand experience of there lifestyle. A colleague of mine gets up to 50 000 per month as monthly allowance as a student in 2014 thereof. He was more than comfortable , but since he isn't using the latest iPhone, no plasma TV in his room and he doesn't have a car, he believes he his poor. To uplift his status he ventures into scam.

To support fraudsters irrespective of societal class, and race they belong is to support armed robbers, burglars , kidnappers, rapist ( from someone who has taken there sides before). All criminals has a justification as to why they commit crime. No matter the justification , another human is being hurt so that you can live your flamboyant lifestyle which is evil.

Finally I think what there sympathizers don't know is that international fraudster will not blink an eye, when opportunity presents itself to scam there kinsman. There is no honor among thieves.

You are kind of right.

-What I dont understand is how everybody where classified to 1st ,2nd or 3rd on the train.

So many questions concerning the pre-apocalypse.



There classification was based on the ticket fee.

1st class members paid the most, the 2nd class members also paid a little bit. The 3rd class members tickets was purely a Job offer ( kinda of skill for ticket)

Josie's death was heartbreaking, but it sparked a rebellion.

Is Mr Wilford ( Melanie ) not fair in her administration??
Layton and the third are irrational, we all agree there is class indiscrimination, but there actions is more or less a suicide.
They are in a closed system, there survival is base on the train.
If they take the engine, how versed are they in its care and maintenance.
How are they planning on maintaining order?? Melanie is a devill incarnate, but she keeps the train going. When in suite with such irrational crowd, only a devil can keep them in check.

Entitlement mentality is a thing that ravages all of Nigeria , irregardless of tribe or religion.
It seems I am kinda of agreeing with the context of Nigeria youth are lazy.
We have Omo onile in Lagos , who aren't literally land owners as the name implies , but must get there share of land tax from land owners.
We keep lamenting lack of investors in our environment, but whenever any investors comes around , we will try to extort them.

A man in my locality had to stop building a bridge in my area, when so called area boys wanted to milk him dry.
How will a nation grow , when some set of lazy riff raff are always entitled to some commission when social programs are enacted.

Health / Re: Professionals In The House Pls Help!!! My Fiancee Is Hipatisis B Positive by Meel: 8:11pm On Jun 22, 2020
Hepatitis B Virus is responsible for the disease , hepatitis B. The virus is specific to liver tissue and causes inflammation of the Liver. The inflammation can progress to Liver cirhhosis ( scaring ) or hepatocellular cancer.

According to the result you posted up there, that's called LFT. The Dr is trying to ascertain the functionality of the Liver, and it shows that it is within normal range.
So there is no cause for alarm.
Most Viral infections don't have specific cure, because the virus inhabit invivo the cell(intracellular). So drugs that will specifically act on the virus without having effect on the cell is rare. So the common saying that viral infections don't have cure .

The drugs listed above only helps in preventing viral replication ,thereby it is a way of reducing the viral load.
Take it from me( medical Laboratory scientist) sir, I have seen cases of HB infection confirmed with the RDT kits who later got negative results ( non reactive).
kindly consult your Dr , all will be well.
And tell her to do away herbs oo and self medications, they can complicate her issue

Career / Re: Two Old Lessons About Money You Should Pls Run Away From by Meel: 8:14am On Jun 21, 2020
I have read many of Robert book, but the thing is not everything applies to a poor Nigerian.
Developed countries has a system of loan and other social programs that help there citizen.


Lets say a man earns 100k per month and needs a million naira to kick start a business venture. How do you profer he gets his fund?? Loan ??
Most Nigeria Bank Loans attract upto 15% interest.
New investment in Nigeria rarely gives 20% ROI. By the time you finish paying back your loan, your capital might be back to Zero.


Robert once mentioned in one of his books, having long term and short term plan.
If a man's long term plan is to save his money, he his worth less than a loser.

if I might ask , what's your mission in auchi??
Are you planning to setup a venture?
Or on a contract Job??
There is a certain lifestyle in which you can adopt, and you will never be a victim. E.g no going out after 7pm or you must be in your abode before 7pm, minding your business always , not visiting funcenters like bars hotel e.tc.
People have being living in Auchi for years and they are not dead, neither Bewitched.
So go there minding your business and it will be alright.

UK HCPC is not difficult but it does not give you any Visa approval to stay in the country like the Australia, Canada skilled workers pathway. Even if you are registered with HCPC as long as you are not resident in UK getting a Job is very slim and you Hardly have employers that will be willing to sponsor someone offshore like they do for nurses
UK HCPC is kinda easy , but the funniest thing is that even if you're resident in the UK without any UK NHS accredited Laboratory experience, getting a Job will very tough
The tricky aspect is that, how do one have work experience without being employed?Then one needs to volunteer , 2-3 days per week in a lab.

Education / Re: 200 Level Is The Toughest For An Undergraduate? by Meel: 8:52am On Jun 08, 2020
It depends on the course you're studying and partially the course.

I think why 200 level is the toughest is because, it is at this level one gets introduced to the basics of the course.
what student offer in 100 level in some department is totally different from there 200 level courses. This transition becomes a bit of problem.
In 100 level most student offer ( phy, math, stat, gns, chem). Student have some knowledge about these courses albeit they have being offering it since High school.
By the time they resume 200 (engineering: Engineering drawing, Engineering Math, Medicals; Anatomy , physiology ) they meet another thing entirely.
But whosoever has good foundations in his 200 level, he/she is made till graduation.
Nothing new again, just application and manipulation of what has being thought in 200.
