MountainView: Share me ? Hope you know the story of the winklovoss and mark zuckerberg ? Lol well it just stuff we've known for decade , just trying to add some disruptive innovation . 1. a mobile centric e-commerce platform where you don't don't search for item you are looking for but you choose icon and features that describe the product , comparison of product cluster , etc 2. an edtech startup taking STEM courses some thing like a game but you are actually learning , like having fun and learning at the same time but as market expand I can monetise it where users can pay for annual subscription That is just what I have now , you know .... |

sparkle7: Lol me that i study free computer science books everynight you can code without computer science knlwledge but when its time to understand whats going on, Data structure, Algorithms are extremely crucial. Knowing the growth of your algorithm is key , check out this github repo OSS Computer Science. Its not easy but worth it when you grasp the concept. So many things you will struggle with if you didnt study computer science but the good part is you can teach yourself. There's one dude i met in the emulation scene he wrote an OpenGL for the PS2 emulator which is an hard feat, this guy never studied computer science and went straight to just learning. Alot of devs esp outside the country are practical, they first write a code that works, then later optimize ,its mostly here we have an unhealthy view to coding we assume coders must know all languages and be able to recall algorithms easily. I met a C++ Dev in Atlanta at work planning , this man has 30 yrs he told me, when he applied for a C++ for Linux he didnt know shit about compiling to linux he lied and got the job and started studying and took him some weeks, whats the morale, if you are passionate start , but always remember the foundation because as data are getting bigger, comp sci core skills are getting more important to know than ever esp with ML and other things. Thats my honest advice. Plus i am still learning, its not a competition no one is better than the other, just that some devs spend more time studyung and practicing so its onky natural for them to be that good at what they do. Once you remove the ego, and just see yourself as a student, it will himble you to pick up a tech and know youre trying your best init. Companies employ devs who are passionate, we've at a point didnt pick a smart dev because of his ego attitude. Being passionate is key, a dev willing to learn and fruther his knowledge is one that a company will always hire on the spot. IBM hired my friemd who i knew had 0 years of experience as a dev, but she wrote codes day and night while studying. I hope this helps. 4 Likes 1 Share |

jossydee1: Dont write Java off, with Java you can write alot of microservices easily, Android apps, build console and Desktop applicatipns, there's more to programming than builindg websites. I use Java to do some low level work like stealing songs from notjustok becsuse java has thread and i can spin up thread to do more work, JS is single threaded so imagine the headache i will. I always advise to start with a static typed lamguage. I started with c++, only reason I got into programming was because someone played Playstation1 on my comouter and i was curious to study how it works, i was always curious as a child as to how things work. 1 Like |

Kvngfrosh:I will advise you to start with w3school and codecademy. Start with HTML5/CSS3. Don't jump to Jquery after mastering the duo. Learn vanilla javascript. Learn how to traverse the DOM using javascript. Once u understand the idea of javascript. U can learn jquery 1 Like |

Predstan:boss I've started learning programming. Can i become quality assurance tester like you if I'v known html, css and JavaScript to some level? And where can i start to test to make money? Thanks sir |

shiffynaani: If you have learnt all of this and can confidently use these languages. You shouldn’t be looking for Testing jobs. You can haunt for developer jobs.... For testing, we use mostly Python and drivers such as chrome drivers and softwares like Selenium(open source), Soap UI e.t.c... Searching for Jobs in IT? LinkedIn works very well, Twitter as well. I will advice remote jobs with the current situation of Nigeria. Connect with people and search critically for jobs that you meet their minimal requirements. You can also sign up for freelance on Utest, Fiverr and Upwork. My brother does this and helps with Python in GIS(surveying) softwares and data analysis. You can also do the same for testing and code development @sheffdon so sorry I didn’t respond to early. This will help as well 1 Like |
