sinaj:
Z10 doesnt run heavy apk files. The app will crash.

What if I upgraded d phone to latest OS?

Good afternoon, pls I want to make enquires about BlackBerry Z10, am using Tecno Y2 and BlackBerry Z10, but I have issues with the two phones... My blackberry screen got smashed early this year, in which about 30% of the screen can't press or touch, this occur at d top of d screen, I didn't bother to repair it due to having second phone and whole 6k to repair screen is huge but these days, am unsatisfied with my Y2 and why, I am not a gamer but I got d phone stuck with apps, d phone is now hanging and slow since my blackberry is only useful for music, reading PDFs and camera, dat is basic function now.

My question is this; can u advice me to repair d blackberry with d assurance of running many apk on it or I should buy another android of my specs but it will be preferable if only I could repair d blackberry due to expenses to buy another android phone of higher specs and price.

Pls, I needed help on how to unlock my Mtn Heuwei Modem.

Although, have generated my unlock and flash code online but d modem is not asking for unlock code by default when inserted with other Sims type to a PC. I downloaded an app named Heuwei Modem code writer by Sagmasterz, and it is displaying error when unlock and sometimes it won't read d cms port.
Apart from d app, I didn't no how else to get this done.

Comparison to Java Programming Language

Some Java issues addressed in Kotlin

Kotlin fixes a series of issues that Java suffers from

Null references are controlled by the type system.
No raw types
Arrays in Kotlin are invariant
Kotlin has proper function types, as opposed to Java's SAM-conversions
Use-site variance without wildcards
Kotlin does not have checked exceptions

Den, which one is easier to learn and understand?

So Someone Gave Out These Stuffs For Free, You're Too Lazy To Use Them And Now Still Want To Sell It On This Same Forum? Ah, Fear God Bro

Thank bro.

I might even buy if he can take #500, sorry if my words are rude.

Nairaland sincerely surprises me today. Today is my birthday, I never believed they could emailed me for d atrocities dey committed. They banned me for eight consecutively times and yet dey have d hint of wishing me Happy birthday.

Since today is my birthday, I believed I should be free from Spambot?

Spambot; How far, are u afraid to touch me today?

Muhammedbashir:
Okay, I surprise at first cox have tried severely.
Can u drop your phone number or better still u can message or flash me with my mobile number (09030875227)

I hope I won't be ban doing this

Thank God, was not ban.

D bot don start to respect me now

I didn't mean someone to get help from oo. Just another close human being to talk issues and matter.

Same here.

Muhammedbashir:
My hatred is now growing for NL. How on earth is this spamming.

And yet with that picture post, I was banned for spamming.

Seriously, Nl banning is getting serious and uncontrollable. I won't be surprised if this post is considered as spamming.

Words for the Spambot, let ur next banning be permanent, it annoying being controlled by ordinary coded bot.

CryptoCoinr:
Based on the missing post I'm assuming you've been banned again. Check your email.

My hatred is now growing for NL. How on earth is this spamming.

Well, am till a novice with no much experience but I get experience to share.

I started when I was in Ss1, although I didn't know I will come this far, it started by Ppm.
Pro paint mobile if am right? A class mate of mine was using this to design. I fell in love with that but ppm is kind of difficult, not what u can easily learn by your self but due to d interest. I started using ppm not a geek though but I started gathering ebooks from different angles based on ppm and I added some ppm bosses on 2go.

To my advantage, d ppm bosses I associated with are Wapmasters, so I found myself in d midst of wapmasters using ppm as website logo's and den I rescheduled my choice, I decided to have website of my own with no basic knowledge of programming den I started looking for boss to teach me how to create sites. Finally I found one, paid ransom to him den he teach me how to create Pbnl site, I owned and run d site with about 100+ members in Ss2 den but during this process, I already no what I wanted so I didn't waste my time running a site so I learnt how to create wapka site provided with d code, jcms, wp, ftp and blog.

Back den, I run Pbnl and Ftp, those are d sites I own and run and I was admin to some different jcms sites. I was aiming to have my own hosting site but I realized I lacked one thing which was programming, I only no how to edit den but I needed programming to further so I quitted everything.

I started with HTML only at w3schools, den I read this thing online, I was so dedicated to it cox it was fun when I tested some code and it works, den I was getting followers on 2go with no knowledge of how weak I was, I take up st night sometimes I slept by 2-4am and I till get school to go.

To d truth, it gets to a point I changed from civic engineering to computer science cox of programming but while doing all this, am already weak at school, I was one of d best in class but na top 10 whereas top 3, so I got discourage. I had to quit in Ss2 cox though no one to tell me whether to stop or continue, home is just to face your book, dey believed I played too much. I knew secondary school was my foundation, I get plenty of time to know programming even if am thirty years old and school is not what u can turn back at.

I backed up my scripts to online Uc disk, I forgone everything about programming but I have this at d back of my mind, am not quitting programming but rather am coming back with full enforcement later on. I faced my study, did my waec and neco, made all my papers, waited at home a year den did my jamb with 263.

Now am through with secondary school with required grade for computer science at Unilorin, and am back with dat enforcement to programming. I restarted programming about 3months ago, am now through with HTML and CSS presently at JavaScript inspiring to learn more.

I learnt by myself and mentored by bosses, e.g Philips Chike, Dhtml and lots dat Re wonderful to me. I appreciate your helps so far, Thank you Sirs!

What pains me most was my scripts back up, I was not aware of uc disk being canceled, it was a surprise my files are gone cox I thought am save and sound with my files at uc disk.

badthinds:
Being a programmer is not easy as we say...but somehow, only us know the truth. Its not a burden on us.



Behind every programmer...there is a story.
Some had been geeks right from time. Some were freaks. Some took computer Stuffs moderately.

...but a programmer who wasn't a programmer from the womb should know exactly how he/she stumbled upon the stone of the programming world.

#iClearMyThroat

Now, let me open the show.

Long time ago, I watched my brothers use the internet. I didn't have a mobile phone that could access the internet nor a computer.

When I watched them surf, I knew I wasn't interested in what they did...I was just interested in the beauty of the site, how text, images and colors appeared on the screen.

Fastforward.

A day came when I saw a saved page (.html). I clicked it and it opened up in the browser. I went back and renamed it to .txt, and my excitement made hair stand attention on my body despite the confusion.

I began to study the code like a curious cat...i was able to recognised some text that were visible in the browser...after some time, I began to modify the texts within <tag> [here] </tag>.

The results excited me the most!

I further noticed how tags ended with tag+a forward slash. Etc...

That was how the journey begun...I was the only one in my family who was interested in what I did.

Phew!.

Now Ova2u

Am till a learner that has not accomplished much, Do I have a chance of showcasing my own little parts of experience?

logicalhumour:
I remember one day, I went into google and typed "create your own website" into the box...I wanted to have mine, I wanted to know how they do it.



I used many services but ended up with w.a.p.k.a because it suited my Nokia X2 then.

I didn't even understand the simplest html. Entirely new.
I found out other w.a.p.k.a sites that their webmaster offered design and development services whereby you copy codes, eg "what's on your mind code" - which excited me the most. Lol.



I had to abandon the site due to an html error I couldn't fix.

I created a new one and gained some html and css skills on the long run.
When I began knowing some javascript...I created something I look back and still praise my efforts...I had over 500 users and a good number where active.

On the long run...when I began to understand the internet more...I knew social media had no bright future...though mine was unique. I left it.

What killed it totally was when I discovered other programming languages and how w.a.p.k.a only supported html, css and Js.

I gave up.
all I achieved was a dotTK domain. Lol

I began...without a working computer...studying C++. Hmmm...just paper and pen oo..but I memorized the syntax and also some simple programs.

I later began to look for compiler that runs on the poor X2 (can you imagine?)

Later later...my computer was fixed and all the anger went on it. That was how it started.

C++, Javascript, C, Python, Java, Php and Mysql - in that order...perfecting Javascript, Python, Java and Php (for quick jobs).

Its only me in the family Sha. They never understand why I stay all night. ...even me I don't understand...always want to make the final change.

Wow, but I have some questions for you sir.
My questions are;
How many months those all this took you?
Is it only d 6programming language you know or those are d one u are best at?

More also, how did u learn? is it by going to school or trainings or reading on your own by downloading PDF and videos

CryptoCoinr:
Check yours

Recheck now

badthinds:
Dear Muhammedbashir,


You see, if its the normal client-side javascript...that means all your logic would / can be seen by any of your page's client.

Anyway, as a programmer, learn to code your question the way you asked it...

Like this...
" I wan to create a page that only a
dedicated password or text can preview d real
page. "

Using js, this would mean you, maybe using an if/else/switch sstatement like

hey! Wait a minute... I hope you don't intend getting the password from a form?.

You may endup using the prompt() method.

<script>
var password = "letme";
var userInput = prompt("Enter Password", "****" ;
if(userInput == password){
//display something
} else {
//something else
}

//Or you can make a list of passwords
various passwords = new Array(){"letme", "grant", "blablabla"};
/*
Perform logic like looping through your passwords array from passwords[0] .. [n] and check them against the prompt()...if seen, modify a previously defined variable to hold the user's state
*/

Now, after all your work...anyone can view your passwords...especially smart programmers...if they see a javascript prompt, they'll raise an eyebrow .

Finally, why don't you learn aleast PHP?...with it you can get the password from a form and be sure no one would see your logic...aleast not from a source code viewer! .



Sincerely, badthinds.

Pls check your mail.

badthinds:
Forgive me if there are any typos...I typed in a hurry, and my autocorrect want to kill me. It can't sha


Well, what is an anti-spam bot?

An anti-spam bot may be defined in many ways, but basically, it is a program file that automatically detects spammy contents and removes it from public view / just report.

An antispam system may have other features eg banning people.

Case Study
Nairaland

Experience
There was once a time a guy on nairaland introduced his website, it was a site that offered similar services to twitter.

In my critical reply, I was comparing and contrasting, also stating some facts. I typed urls of twitter and facebook multiple places in the text. After sighing and happily posting the patiently typed writeup, it was removed...and guess what? Pepper was added to my wound, ...I was banned from posting!

Well, I noticed I could mail the super mods the next day, so I did.
I commend the quick action of the mode that received the hearty complaint. My ban was resolved. (Oh! How I felt good to be able to post once more...hehehehe )

Serious...now

I studied the post I made, I knew posting twitter and facebook urls ...better still - without forward slashes shudun be kwansidared spam...
Then I deduced the antispam system wasn't manned by the intelligent nairaland mods...
I also deduced the bot lacked AI and subsequent bans I received made me conclude the bot couldn't learn! (at this point, I say to myself, "easy, badthinds".)

Why the critical review?

This is a banning era on Nairaland...like the gods are gone and we are left to go OYO. Complaints everywhere...many have suffered eg, one of my new friends on nairaland Muhammedbashir, how far guy? .

Now,

An intelligent antispam bot should be able to (if related to links)
- Evaluate the link
- Check a whitelist of websites
- scan the content of where it lands and make sure it wasn't redirected or something
- conclude if its a spam or not
- finally, learns something, if necessary.

I would have continued but I can save myself more typing by just stating the conclusion.

The antispam system on nairaland is like a not-so-brilliant robot taking over humankind. Sadly enough, we the intelligent humans cant do anything about it.

Over to my Honorable ogas.

Seun, move this to fp...ummm...I mean...programming fp ( ). So dat my guys on nairaland can come and shuk mouth for de mata.


Phew!

Be banned four times consecutively no be small thing ooo

CryptoCoinr:
Oops, looks like he got banned again. The anti-spambot buggybot is still as useless as ever. Muhammedbashir, if you can see this then try PM'ing Seun.

Sincerely, they dont worth it anymore, I had enough of this, If not for d urgency. They are now banning me for good four times.

Just a few more trial for them before I moves to Nairaland

CryptoCoinr:
I knew it!



I got banned too yesterday from this forum, twice! The reason? I posted a topic with code. Yup, I got banned from the Programming forum for starting a thread with a post that had programming code in it. *facepalm*

This is my third time of being banned from this same post. Just because I included d demo site am using d JS code for.
