Hello qtguru, I would like your opinion. I'm working on a design and need to add about seven small images to the page. On one hand, I have an image I could use as a sprite, I also have each of the individual seven images. But then the image sprite is of larger size when compared to the size other images put together. For faster page load time which would you use, the image sprite with CSS or adding the individual images directly to the mark-up?

7 images , The browser will cache them on the next request,

Good afternoon everyone. I just started to learn to code a few months ago. I have been using my phone since I started with Sololearn, but now I want to get a laptop to continue.
However, I have been wondering if it's possible for me to get a tablet instead and write my codes there.
Are there any disadvantages? Please enlighten me.

Just wait till you get a laptop

Mine is UK. The telephone stands, tall buildings, rail system, multiculturalism there and the health system are things I love about UK.

2Radii:
Thanks boss, i am on my way to Ibadan now to get one (80 to 100k).

Amanee:
Please plan to pay your first year fees and cost of living at least.

15 years down the drain it's well

Escanor:
In poland you cannot work and pay your tuition fee here.there are two things involved.its either you study or you work.and the money you work is just for rent bills food.dont let anybody deceive you with pictures and good talks..some will tell you that you can apply to IT jobs and get big salary.but the probability is like getting an oil and gas job in nigeria. You know how it is.the reason people are silent here is the fact that they are already in a messed up situation and as such,they are looking for a woman to marry or other countries to go and study and make money.poland is just like Ukraine.but they are just opportuned to be in Schengen and EU.the way people are dying to leave nigeria,that's the way all blacks are dying to leave poland.so be careful.so for those who will be paying thier bills for them selves and sponsoring themselves, and still want to come to poland don't expect anything big.just be ready to face hell and overcome.or just see poland as a route to other better EU country where you can make lots of money and stand as a pillar in your family.i am not talking to those who are spoonfed.we know ourselves here.thank you

You cannot work for Poland companies, does that exclude one from Independent contract works like freelance as long as that exists I think some will be alright.

2Radii:
No sir, dat is not wat i mean


Wat happens is dat i dont want it short and portable, i like those larger PCs

Oohhh, am sorry, since i heard pad i thot its one of those system that are like phones. I browsed it put now and i saw that its the exact type i want.

Yeah they last longer and you can use a thinkpad for years

This is what I use now
https://www.notebookcheck.net/uploads/tx_nbc2/4zu3_t450s.jpg

I used to use Predator cost me 350k and only lasted 2 hours I sold it cuz it was too big, charger itself big and the battery dies too fast

I bought a thinkpad for a friend recently for 70k
i5 4gb ram but he is not a developer, so for you just hit i5 8gb RAM (WebDev + Linux ) or 16gb (Mobile Development)

I used this Laptop in Interswitch for 4 years, it's the reason I bought it, They are built for business productivity and long life

emmyN:
What model and spec of the thinkpad goes for 80k? Just checked Jumia and I'm seeing prices upwards of 500k.

Those are the X series the T450 are alright, check jiji I have a plug if you want.

2Radii:
sir pls do we have any other type apart from that ThinkPad, like a real laptop.

Budget= 80 to 100k

Thinkpad no be laptop ?

Get a thinkpad but save around 80k , Thinkpad are strong and last longer

Karleb:
You will be surprised how jealous some guys can be.

Of another's man handsomeness that's sounds gay to me

I'd be surprised if that didn't happen, guys don't have time for drama. Only ladies do

treatise:
If the person is a programmer of has computer related skill, let him opt for Fintech; otherwise, remain with the traditional bank.

Exactly

wait what are you doing in the FinTech company ? is it coding or management ?

You were vague in the bank job, is the bank job a Tech job or requires specialization. But I'll go with Fintech because that's a good space so def alot of jobs to get after this experience vs working in a bank, now if the bank role was something Technical like Oracle specialist or Technician that requires advanced skill yeah but if it is a branch level role, just go for the FinTech.

dauntless15:
Yes sapiosexual, that's the word, and so far I haven't met any.

Lagos ?

dauntless15:
Tbh, someone who is a combination of beauty and brains, a companion who is fun to be with, not the generic girlfriend that will just be there and only offer sex, I tried to even get her to travel with me because I love traveling alot, but she's not adventurous, she shut the idea down before I can even say jack, she doesn't challenge me at all, intelligence and academically, she doesn't know alot, so when I raise any topic she won't contribute anything, the sex is good but sex is not my problem, at all.

Not saying she's a bad fit, that's her person but you have a valid point you got a preference, meaning you're the Sapiosexual type, Sex and must have brains. Plus that's an asset, someone has to write IETLS in the future just incase.

dauntless15:
I'm not good at maintaining long term relationships, majority of my relationships never survived upto a year because I would be so excited at first and give you all the attention until I get bored and run out of things to do with you, then I stop communicating and at the end it'll feel like you're dating yourself and probably end the relationship yourself.

I have been trying to change the norms but it's not working, I recently got into a new relationship and it's happening again, I really like this one but I don't think this would be enough on the long run, so those who have been in long term relationships, how did you keep the spark alive?

Spark hmmmm you know most guys settle with reasonable babes who they feel comfortable with, maybe you are looking for something more than what relationships are, what are you looking ultimately ? Companion, Romance, Sex

BoredBerry:
Aww... You actually believe I want to work!

Thanks but there's no skill I know that pays so well in Nigeria... Tell me?

Well you're wrong but i see you're joking about working

So I'll leave this for others:

Typo:

There are jobs out there especially remote, just pick a skill and understand the market you are serving in, because we spend too much time on NL trolling so much that we are not even aware of what opportunity exists, a lot of them requires sweat and dedication and most times its not just IT and Tech related. We should spend more time in the career section as young people ( either male or female)

Let me not ruin this thread. Adios all

DontBullshitMe:
Some men are just something else. No taste at all.

Proposing to a midnight newspaper. I will disown you as a friend or relative if you are any of those to me.

Appears that Kemi is older than the dude, there is no record of his age anywhere. Man is just looking for a meal ticket.

Glad he found one.

She has a contract with Netflix my guy and did Kings of Boys which is a hit, Stop the hate. We are guys we are not supposed to be bothered about another man's choice in partner

airsaylongcome:


Even 5star veterans with proven experience dey fear to put senior

BoredBerry:
I need someone who would give me money and not ask for anything in return...

I'm young (18)... And I can be interesting... So we would chat! The entire relationship would start here and end on WhatsApp or Kik or Telegram...

Whenever you have problems, I'll be there... You can complain, blab to me about your dreams and future plans, you can even send voice notes weeping... I'll devote my entire time to you!

I need money... Who doesn't?

So send an email...


Requirements:

Have WhatsApp/Kik/Telegram...
Be rich or well to do...

You would pay me ₦5k every week for being your companion...

You would demand nothing of me... No visitations, no sex, no pictures or videos unless I choose to send them... I would NOT divulge personal information...

You may remain anonymous...

I intend to respect your privacy!

Thanks!

Or pick up a skill that fetches money. There are jobs online that pay well.

emmyN:
See set up na . After reading this our guy will surely reconsider.

Yes nau, if you are senior expect to know Algo, Platforms and scaling related topics, and looking at his CV he has basic experience. He is setting himself up for strong questions.

emmyN:
Don't be jealous bro

The interview gets harder, the senior you are.

Jay77:
Thanks .. I was booting with UEFI ... Just switched to legacy and it popped up

Yeah I even meant the reverse, glad it works

If you can do Google Meet that also works for me too

Jay77:
Yes. After installation, I restated the system hoping to see grub page..but nothing. Checked my BIOS nothing.

Boot into live USB again connect to the Internet and download boot repair, or from Bios check if you are not using legacy boot also. Let me know

endy69:
Feeling like crying, those days were gold. Adulthood is a setup
