The hype around this movie is dame huge
Are you surprised? Don’t be.

Nigerians love to hype movie projects and when you decide to watch the movie based on the hype, u might get disappointed. I suggest you doing forward, don’t watch because of the hype you see.

Melanin07:
For those who wants to get into software engineering in 2023, I think this is what you've been looking for.

This is purely my opinions with opinions of others from my research.

1. The reason most people see programming and coding as been hard is not because they are hard, it because you need to learn something called COMPUTATIONAL THINKING.

This is the ability to transform problems into code. There's nothing wrong with you seeing Java or C programming as hard, the thing is you need to develop your brain more on computational thinking.

2. The hard truth is in software development, no one cares if you graduated from MIT or national open university of Nigeria or from CodingDojo bootcamp or you are a software engineer from being self taught...your pay is basically going to bethe same. But having a CS degree gives you more prestige. But be warned, this is a Zero sum game ( status game).

Infact currently, Standford university open source their whole courses and books for their BSC degree, NOUN has all their BSC degree course and textbooks online for everyone including University of the people.
If you want to know what they teach in universities in BSC computer science, everything is now online for you.


3. I asked Paul Graham, Founder of Y combinator (for those who knows YC) if it's necessary to have a CS degree as a software engineer. His answer was " No, you don't but be very good in programming".

4. When learning how to code, learn to build projects not just learning how to code. Learn how to use Git & GitHub. Go there, read people's code, build projects they built but twist it. If someone built a weather app, build a cryptocurrency price analytics using API ( in this way, you will learn how to work with APIs...that's the goal...not learning how to build a weather app)

5. Learn one language deeply and be very good in it. Don't be a jack of all trades. Be known for something. For your first language, I will advise you 100% for Python and 80% for JavaScript.

Don't choose any other languages.
After 1 year of working as a developer, go back and learn C and C++.

6. Research the job market before choosing what to learn. We have over 20 million software developers and only like 0.1% have seen a code in crypto or Blockchain. And we have less than 6,000 Blockchain developers.

Scarcity increases value. This less than 6000 Blockchain are mostly hired by two companies. There's so much shortage of Blockchain developers in the world... Blockchain developers even with less than 6mnth experience are paid higher than software engineers with 10 years experience.

If you want to be a Blockchain developer, go and learn Python, JavaScript and solidity.

This is the pathway.

7. Don't learn to code so you can seek Employment at Google. Look for startups. They pay higher than FANGS. And they are easier to get jobs in.

They don't care about degrees. They only care if you can do the job.
Infact it very easy to get a $300K/yr with a startup than at big companies like Amazon, Facebook.

8. Buy an apple MacBook. Don't ask me why.

9. Learn to network on developers communities and on Twitter spaces.

10. Learn to Leetcode early. You may never use those data structures and algorithms but you will always work where you need to optimize code

11. Learn to read programming ebooks. It was from books I learnt Object oriented programming. Books are far better than videos.

12. Learn to code for the money.

Yes you heard me, money should be what is motivating you when you learn to code. Cos sometimes you might feel like giving up.

Remember that when you learn to code and get a big salary, it can change your family situation, your situation.

That money factor will keep motivating you when you feel like giving up.

I will give more tips later...let me go and sleep
13. Sleep well.

Learn to sleep. It when you are refreshed your brain can work well and learn well


I just came across your post and I want to say thank you. Research and quest for knowledge lead me to your post. I recently just got accepted into a 6 month Software engineering program, yet to begin but I really need heads up, guidance and best practice as I embark on this tech journey.

Any man who invites a lady to his house and does not provide transportation fare is more useless than the lady who asks for transportation money. Why would you initiate a visit if you are not ready to take the responsibility?
