Why move to the UAE though. You can't become a citizen.

If you buy a property, you can stay in definetely

Remote US job that pays at least 20k usd per annum. Get your laptop, running shoes and headphones. Tour the beautiful countries in west Africa (jump Ghana).

Rent is available on monthly or 3-monthly basis.

Dont be afraid of the francophone countries.

Did I remember to warn you about Ghana?

For income above 40k usd, come to the uae. It is more secure than USA, UK and Canada combined if you promise not to stay in the cheap immigrant locales.

Above 60k, go to europe. Portugal, Sweden, Germany etc. UK only if you must.

Above 90k and you are remote? You be chairman. Any place is home.

UK is so expensive and overrated, I'd rather be in a cheap EU country and have access.

After all the invectives you have thrown here you want the same people to advise you? US remains the gold standard and the most difficult to enter

True it's very hard

Still I'd rather work for a US company from outside the US, especially where rent is cheaper

You guys that learned and understand javascript very well, are you guys having double Brain or only for genius.
Please someone should recommend the concept, book or video that really helped him. because I am beginning to question myself if I really I have Brain🧠. How can I stay for 5hrs without getting it.

I have some free time, what you must understand about JS is some things,

JavaScript (EcmaScript)
This is the Syntax part, ES5,ES6,ES7 the two important concepts I will advice is understanding the prototypial nature of JS and the newer offerings of ES6, if you understand how to add to prototype and do inheritance through that, you will understand the core of JS, Class is to make it easier to write. Then learn about Closures, Scope and global variable. There are new features like Generators, Promise and Proxy. You can do some complex features but it requires studying. That's how i learnt I studied the book for years, since I tend to work on a lot of complex JS built projects. Debugging frameworks will show you how different it is from the regular JS code, design patterns too are involved.


JavaScript as an API ( BOM, DOM, Chrome API)

BOM => Browser related features e.g navigation and the rest
DOM => DOM Trasversal, Event, Node and all that
Chrome API => Chrome Browser itself using JavaScript to perform core browser functionalities

Samuell2019:
what's a good resource to learn chrome extension development

If you are more of a visual learner, a simple Youtube will work, there tons of videos, but if you prefer reading material, you can study the API Reference from Google, it's written with detail to give you an insight into Chrome Extension Architecture, it's mostly HTML, CSS and JS mixed with Chrome API (still JS).

No man is sad being single. That's a question for women. Only ladies find it difficult to be happy without a man in their lives.

Not really, if you were with a good woman and she left you would be sad. staying alone is not good.

Obavoh:
Since I separated from my wife I am trying my best to prepare healthy meals for myself on a budget.

Ponmo- ₦300
Tatashe (Red&Green) ₦100
Onions- ₦50

I had Groundnut oil and salt at home.

I'm thinking of going to Mauritius for digital nomad, for the sole purpose of applying to Portugal D7, the embassy is closed here, can one apply to the Portugese embassy from mauritius, thank you.

Luckydonalds:
I've a graduate trainee video interview with them tomorrow Sir, any valuable tips?
I'd be graduating in June/July and I only have a surface understanding of Spring boot.

Baelung is your guy when it comes to Spring, and watch alot of Youtube, Spring is mostly plain Java Objects and annotation, I found Laravel to be complex than Spring Boot, once i covered the basic of Spring, it was easy to use for work. but I'm no Spring boot expert.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35EQXmHKZYs

Always search for anything on Youtube, Youtube has most of the answers placed here.

Luckydonalds:
OP, learn Spring framework (Spring Core, Spring Data, Spring security, Spring Cloud, Servlets, JDBC and Hibernate) first before moving on to Spring boot. Spring boot relies so much on annotations and abstractions which Spring would open your eyes to with XML configurations. You'd need to understand how the spring application context is initialised and how spring beans are managed by the application context. Also, dependency injection and inversion of control should be your best friends.

Exactly Spring boot Auto-scanning and bean configuration, Read this book by Manning OP Spring boot in Action.

Note: I was told Spring boot adopted Servlet API, but I think some aspect where Servlet is exposed, like Filter chain. I used this package Quartz, SimpleJDBC Stored Procedure, Jackson. I really enjoyed Spring so much, It made no sense writing PHP. Interswitch exposed me to alot, with docker, you can fire multiple instances. Follow this man on Twitter Alex Adeyemo, he built an SSO for Interswitch.

Deicide:
It wasn't paying well? I would imagine that for a Spring Dev the salary should be quite high enough to cover the stress.

it was a Naira salary then

Deicide:
Why did you stop and how did you learn it?

I resigned from work, and move on to other stacks

Guys, companies are looking for guys with Bubble skills, please look into it, if you have time, there are jobs online, Bubble Developer building of Apps is a niche too. I did some research and saw it.

Supreme145:
Good morning all, please what advice would give a newbie. I registered last last year but no gigs yet. I'm into technical writing but I also have a bit of web dev experience to JS level coupled with WordPress though my profile is structured around content development for now.

I really need to start getting gigs because Nairaland outsourcers have really dealt with me, I recently discovered that one was paying me #3/word for a crypto project while he was getting around #20/ word from his upwork client. Please gurus in the house help me out.

Pocohantas...qtguru

Try Chrome Extension development or pick a no-code tool

Deicide:
Something has never been this difficult for me to grasp. It is not just entering.

I thought that since spring boot does a lot for you, by abstracting a lot of stuff I'll just have to focus on the things that matter but still I am still not understanding anything. 😅

The reason I wanna learn spring-boot is to add a powerful framework for handling backends to my repository. But hmmm.....

Do we have spring boot Devs here?

I did Spring boot in the past at ISW, nothing heavy, maybe I can assist to a degree, what about it ?

I'm lowkey happy they are not igbos, let my tribe take the bullet for once.

The guy is a goner, I hope it was worth the risk for him.

VeryWickedGoat:
If he starts rocking back and forth, that's extra handjob for free.

Wtf lol

pocohantas:
Lmao. How?

Poco I've seen what Naija guys go through, you might be the exception but most naja ladies put peeps through financial pressure that they cannot do for their own spouse.

Nothing, except women today are not as appreciative as before. We men do too much for women and yet not the same love is returned. I've thought about it, but being monogamous is beneficial for a proper society.

This is not to say all Nigerian ladies are like that, but most are.

Some men need to be killed. I swear, make I no reach my side.
