Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Why Are Tech Jobs Difficult To Get? by Offpoint1: 11:46am On Feb 19, 2025
PapaNnamdi:
Not all tech jobs in Nigeria is based on recommendation,

All jucy jobs are on recommendation
In short any employment opportunity in Nigeria is based on recommendation.

Even teaching , security nannyjob

Nigeria is not a country to seek employment without proper networking.


But the truth is,

Almost all tech jobs can be automated now with AI,
The speed with which it's application is increasing begs the question will there be jobs in the nearest future?

I WAS emphasis on was a graphic designer and web developer looking for paid gigs online,
Until I downloaded ChatGPT then realized my skill will become obsolete soon from what chat got could do as at the time,

Today AI is making videos, paintings, websites even cloning and maintenance,

Now who will pay for something that can be done almost free with AI
AI can replace anything, but not graphics design... Can AI design? Yes! Can it replaced it? Hell no.

I'm a designer and I've tried 50s of AI for graphics, the flaws are endless.

The noise about tech got into my head and I quit my 8-5 job. Though the 8-5 job was becoming stressful and toxic, I couldn't cope and had to leave.

I had saved some funds and learned data analytics. Now here is where the issue lies.

I've applied to more than a thousand jobs and I keep getting rejections.

My hope was to get a remote job but I'm not seeing it coming.

Is tech all about noise or it's just saturated?

While learning , we were told a data analyst earns 30k USD annually. I'm just getting tired and frustrated
You don't get tech skill to start looking for work, you get a tech skill to start freelancing, build up a strong portfolio... Na job go dey find you.

That zenith strong die. With their poor service, you will be wondering who is banking with them.

I once worked as accountant for a company. The policy is the maintenance guys go to owode or alaba market but we pay from office.

All the accounts I paid into that day 98% are either zenith or Access bank.

I concluded that day that zenith and access bank is highly favoured by Igbos markets guys.
Those 2 bank are the only banks that give loan without stress if you have consistent inflow of cash with them.

Stop talking

Since FG acted on Binance dollar manipulating in Nigeria, Naira has been gaining strength.

Is it only Nigeria Binance was banned or have issue with the government country?

Why should we be using crypto rate as dollar rate in Nigeria?

Annoyingly, those who have no idea about the extent of Binance manipulation would come on this thread to defend him. Annoyingly

Modified: It's important for Nigerians to have a clue about the basis of Binance trouble in Nigeria.

So Binance and some crooks in Nigeria, colluded together to be placing fake orders on Binance which will required dollars settlement. The crooks would use the receipt of the placed orders to exchange naira to dollar at a very discounted price as the amount is huge.

Eventually, the orders are not existing, the demanded dollars are meant to be laundered outside Nigeria most especially other African countries and sell at high price.

It got to the extent that there was too much demand on dollar which made the suspicion.

Now , how many years have Binance been manipulating naira-dollar rate in Nigeria? That some people said Binance left a year ago while the dollar is still around N1500. So you expect years of manipulating to be vanished within a year?
Naira has been gaining ground indeed... Self deception is the greatest of all deception

Education › Re: UNIZIK Orders Probe After Female Student Slapped Her Lecturer by Offpoint1: 1:45pm On Feb 12, 2025
EmeeNaka:
The Lecturer should be sanctioned. We have got to learn to treat people with respect, not assuming that our age or attainment makes us better than others.
The Lecturer pushed the student out of the way, and walk away while saying 'excuse me'. However, the student protested the pushing, the Lecturer, who has walked down some feet away, turned back to challenge the student to delete a video she was taking in public, citing that the video may have captured him. Upon the student refusal, the lecture took matter into his hand, trying to force the phone out of the students hand and that led the student to defend herself.
The student didn't go towards the Lecturer at all, instead the Lecturer walked towards the student in all the drama and started every aspect of the violence that ensued
We must begin to understand that every individual deserves respect and should be treated with dignity.
Gen-Z parent or child spotted.

If your parent slapped you at home you'll definitely slap back.

....and if, after she waited for like 10 minutes she left, probably cos network failure, and wen network came back, the card came out to the the hands of stranger?


......if the woman gave it to stranger and told the person her password to help her collect the money and the stranger use cunning way to change her 🏧, meanwhile after the person withdrew it, the woman now shouting "it was inside ATM machine, knowing fully well that her husband might sent her parking if she says, she gave it for someone to assist? "Saying inside machine as a way of soft landing".


Oga stop believing hook line and sinker what saying,and stop giving people sympathy base on emotions they display.
If there's a check by your narrative and the card was seized for 10 minutes, the bank will still be held responsible.

All these can be check from the backend and even CCTV.

Is it not time to put an end to POS operations?
These people do more harm than good to citizens.

The POS terminal and operator can be located, even if the operator is mobile. All the terminals have their IDs and the withdrawal information is in her bank.

Again, you never can trust some bank officials. Some crooked elements work in the bank, collaborating with external criminals to steal from people’s accounts.
Nothing concerns POS with what happened, locating the pos operator is not issue... It's impossible to locate who made the withdrawal, unless by some miracle the pos agent knows the withdrawal.

She has no reasons to cry if her card was seized by the machine.

Bank don't returned seize card, they will ask you to get new one.

Her card was with the bank, so the bank are fully responsible and will pay her back every penny.

Withdrawal from POS means the withdrawal was with the card.

Dogalmighty17:
There is still a lot we don't know about the human brain and perhaps we may never be able to comprehend just how complex it is. I read of a particular incident where while recovering from a traumatic brain injury, the patient spontaneously started speaking a language he had never spoken before and he could even understand that language.

In another shocking incident that happened in the early 1900's, a young serial killer who had killed about 13 people already pleaded upon his capture, that the authorities should take a look at his brain after putting him to death. Sure enough during the autopsy, an examination of his brain revealed a tumor the size of a small egg that was exerting pressure on the area of his brain responsible for emotions and impulse control.

In another, a young man recovering from TBI after a bike accident, became a math genius and was solving some of the most complex math problems presented to him. The reason why this is shocking is that before his TBI, he was a practical dullard in school and was a few IQ points removed from a mo(r)on.

Our brains are so complex that any anaesthesiologist will tell you that they know that the drugs they use to put people to sleep for surgery works but they don't know the exact mechanism of action involved.

Or that people who have been known to have entire hemispheres of their brains removed, over time develop in the hemisphere left, areas that control and restore the physical functions lost when the original controlling hemisphere was removed.

This small mass that we carry in our heads, is the seat of thought, the source of consciousness and is who we are.
We are advance computers, or should I say AI.
We run on electricity and our brain is hard drive.
Just like hard drive or electrical appliances/gadget... When there's an impact, they all go haywire.

That's what our brain is. Our brain is loaded with everything in the universe, it's just that our makers put restrictions to what we can have access to.

We're living hard drive taking information to somewhere, the earth is our transportational machines, hence the earth is blazing through space heading towards somewhere.

Procreation is the most important thing to nature, else we will die out and those information lost.

Botragelad:
This is the most effective solution available right now. They don’t belong there, they’re occupiers. Those who call themselves Palestinians are essentially Arabs from places like Jordan, Egypt, and other regions, trying to illegitimately claim land that isn’t theirs. Once they leave Gaza, they can live well in other Islamic countries, which, despite encouraging their acts of terrorism, refuse to take them in. Lol.

These Islamists could have lived in peace if they hadn’t attacked on October 7. Was that attack on Israel worth it, or was it a massive mistake they’ll regret forever? 😂😂 The Hamas kids and Palestinians can keep dancing around in their uniforms, but eventually, they’ll be sent back to where they truly belong or they can keep suffering.

This should be a clear lesson to anyone coward enough to attack Israel and kidnap the citizens. You and everyone close to you who supported and cheered you on will be wiped out, your cities leveled, and the land taken as a trophy.

Wake up folks, Palestine doesn’t exist, and it never will.
I guess ruins and destruction are what Islamists call “victory.” 😂
Am yisrael chai🇮🇱!
Those of you with knowledge on Isreal-Palestine war, should STFU.

The war didn't start on October 7, started before some of you were even born.
