Business › Re: Foreigners Doing Business In Nigeria. Our Failures Dreadful Struggles & Success. by paranorman(m): 12:01pm On Aug 26, 2014 |
caesaraba: Attack the messenger all you want but the question is, did you get the message from the write-up? I know it`s on the front page and open to the usual NL barasana but isn`t it too early to start casting doubts on the OP`s motive (If any). There`s a reason why we have PDP/APC and Tonto Dike threads on the FP to satisfy various needs. This thread is aimed at business inclined persons on NL.
This is my line of business and why it might sound like French to you, what the OP is saying is quite simple. Ordinarily even if you just buy 2-3 mini vans and approach warehouses in within your town, you can strike a couple of deals to haul or distribute goods for them quite easily.
Let the man commit a crime before you crucify him abeg. o my, i couldnt stop laughin at ur sig.. Oh my.. Oh my.. Guess i am one rare and endangered specie, level 5! |

Even though i schooled a lil in the 80s and more in the 90s down through, i really appreciate the quality of education we had back den esp people that schooled the 80s through. Yoruba is a very rich language i must say and tas even evolved and changed with time still retainin its 'classicness'.. I envy those of you that can read it fluently. I am just a little less than average in readin it. God bless you Yorubas, God bless Nigeria.. |

Ignorin pathetic rules potrayin to you how to live ur life. Life simple rules are: -do unto others as you wan'em to do to you; love up. -Work-hard and find ur 'rhythm'. Just because emeka studies accounting doesnt mean you should do same and u'l suceed. Remember, riches and wealth are two different thing and success def brings wealth. -what you can do today, do it now and do it so well..! -perseverance/longsufferin on ur 'rhythm' -life is not fair. Remember that. Learn to forgive. Time and chance are different for diff people. Wait for ur time. -learn to be content with what u have. Dont let things move you esp material things; move things, let'em be under ur control. Never compare urself with others. There's uniqness is variety, u dig? - most importantly, serve/fear God in ur youth! This is the ultimate tin not to not do. this is wisdom, understandin and knowledge you need to make it exceptionally. |

Programming › Re: Should We Make Mobile Apps Or Web Apps For The Nigerian/African Market? by paranorman(m): 5:22pm On Aug 18, 2014*. Modified: 7:09pm On Aug 18, 2014 |
toshodei: Thank you for letting this make front page. What device do most 9jerians/Africans use to browse the internet? Mobile/Smartphones? Desktops/Laptops? Many 9jerians/Africans own more mobile devices/smartphones than desktops/laptops but it seems as if mobile devices/smartphones are only used for chatting. To be more clear, here is what I mean:
a. Native Apps Native apps live on the device and are accessed through icons on the device home screen. Native apps are installed through an application store (such as Google Play or Apple’s App Store). They are developed specifically for one platform, and can take full advantage of all the device features — they can use the camera, the GPS, the accelerometer, the compass, the list of contacts, and so on. They can also incorporate gestures (either standard operating-system gestures or new, app-defined gestures). And native apps can use the device’s notification system and can work offline.
b. Mobile Web Apps Web apps are not real applications; they are really websites that, in many ways, look and feel like native applications, but are not implemented as such. They are run by a browser and typically written in HTML5. Users first access them as they would access any web page: they navigate to a special URL and then have the option of “installing” them on their home screen by creating a bookmark to that page.
Web apps became really popular when HTML5 came around and people realized that they can obtain native-like functionality in the browser. Today, as more and more sites use HTML5, the distinction between web apps and regular web pages has become blurry.
c. Hybrid apps Hybrid apps are part native apps, part web apps. (Because of that, many people incorrectly call them “web apps”). Like native apps, they live in an app store and can take advantage of the many device features available. Like web apps, they rely on HTML being rendered in a browser, with the caveat that the browser is embedded within the app.
Often, companies build hybrid apps as wrappers for an existing web page; in that way, they hope to get a presence in the app store, without spending significant effort for developing a different app. Hybrid apps are also popular because they allow cross-platform development and thus significantly reduce development costs: that is, the same HTML code components can be reused on different mobile operating systems. Tools such as PhoneGap and Sencha Touch allow people to design and code across platforms, using the power of HTML.

Probably because each time during when it's been aired, AIT always had transmission hitches-- transmitting pictures before sounds and vice versa making it uninteresting to watch and all.

Olucheye: 1 If you were given a box of pencils, list 10 things you could do with them that are not their traditional use.
1. Use it to Turn a traditional radio cassette. 2. Chop into small pieces, to be used spot markers 3. Remove the graphite in it and use it a lubricant for my lab machine or key lock as the need may arise. 4. Use to fix stubborn zip on my clothes. 5.open things sealed up in plaStic... Like a 5alive seal. 6. Put it in a ruler that has a hole on it and spin like we use to do in primary school. Helicopter of life, chief boredom savior. 7. Play drums and make music/noise. 8. The eraser could clean any corrections. 9. Would also serve as a makeshift ruler in times of desperate need. E.g plotting a graph... Axis X & Y. 10. A deadly weapon. For example, stabbing either the Carotid artery(ies) or jugular vein(s)
2. How would you solve problems if you were from Mars? If I was from Mars, problems on earth will be alien to me, hence the need to go into explorative research to determine cause, effects, and proffered solution.
On a lighter note, I'd wake up from my dream and stop imagining if I was from Mars. It's certain already that in this life, i will never be from Mars...I'm already an earthling!
3. What's the most creative way you can break a clock?
Remove the battery or knock out the engine cold.It will still tell the right time twice everyday.
4. A disc is spinning on a spindle, and you don't know which way. You are given a set of pins. Describe how you would use them to determine which way the disc is spinning.
Drop the base of the pin first on the disk, the direction which the tip of the pin fall towards is the backward direction while the base will point forward.
5. You have a bag of with "N" number of strings. At random, you pull out a string's end. You pull out another string end and you tie the two together. You repeat this until there are no loose ends left to pull out of the bag. What is the expected number of loops?
Number of Loops = N/2 - X(string's end)
Mathematicians, kindly help.
6. You want to design a phone for deaf people — how do you do it?
It'll only have only a vibrat*r (which one is romance machine again Seun) and a compatible screen, then a software that coverts all voice calls to text on his phone. 2. Phone will come with a real or virtual keyboard to reply both voice and texts all in form of messages. 3. Each notifications will vibrate to notify him/her of all alerts
7. How would you design an elevator?
Traditional styled with a couple of extra designs such as being opaque to people on the outside for privacy, music while you ride it on high rise buildings, fresh air vent for occupants from people who fart while riding.
8. Why should we not hire you?
I hate being stereotypical. Hence, if the offered job position isn't going to offer me challenges that will afford me developmental and mental growth via deep thoughts and adept research, I'll get weary and bored which consequentially will impede my productivity and contributions as a staff.
9. How do you compute the collision of two moving spheres? Give me both the mathematical equations for the solution as well as an algorithmic implementation.
Sorry, I'm a graduate of the college of Medicine. But I think it should be somewhat related to recoil speed. If you remember Okeke Physics. 10. Name as many Microsoft products as you can.
Word, PowerPoint, Excel, spreadsheet, windows 97, 98, Vista, Windows 7, windows 8, internet explorer, Windows phone OS (Nokia Lumia Series) e.t.c
Permit me to add, I'm a fresh graduate who's actively seeking internship opportunities with Public health related NGO's but I'm not limited to that, as I'd appreciate any opportunity to put to active use my versatility in any organization. I'd appreciate any opportunity to prove myself. Kindly send me a PM on NL if you've got any available opportunities.
Cheers! great. Still didnt get the loose string part.. Could you please explain better. |
