Programming / Re: How Can I Contribute To Open Source As A Junior Developer by Runningwater(m): 9:43pm On Dec 27, 2022
You could search on Github using search filters like python, JavaScript, react, etc. After seeing the project you like, read the project readme to understand what it does, why it does it and how it does it that way.

You could then help by:
1.Writing or improving on the documentation
2.Write articles about the project(How-to, etc)
3.Add features you like or improve on existing ones(features like maybe a GUI if doesn't exist)
4. Look at open issues you could address in the project
5. You could even do translation of readme files if such projects need it


But it would be better to first search on Github for opensource projects that help devs on using Git and Github for opensource contributions. Repos like the Eddiehub, first-time contributions, etc

My little sense

Oh... you could search on GSoC repos on Github to look for ones you contribute to, too

Programming / Re: Let's Talk About OpenAI ChatGPT. What's The Future of Developers ? by Runningwater(m): 3:53pm On Dec 12, 2022
Maxxim:
I can remember when copy.ai was introduced, so many copywriters lost their jobs, but those who were more grounded with the skill never got affected. There are lot of people still learning that skill up till now. I'm sure that event helped to weed out those who came for the fun.
Same scenario rh

Exactly!! I don't see pilots being scared of their jobs being taken by drones or armies of their jobs taken by killer robot.

It will just weed out some people

ChatGPT is definitely taking tech to another whole new level but only if you see it as a tool( just as different programming languages has their best use case) and how it ease in problem-solving and not go into competition with it.

Saw a twitter thread written with ChatGPT. I might even start using it to write technical blog posts on sites like Hashnode grin

what should a beginner in programming do if he wants to travel overseas

To add to what @naijamanyoutube said, Data Structure and Algorithms (DSA) is a must-know. Cause it could shock you that with all the experiences and skills you got, you could still miss the job cause of their tech job interviews are focused more on problem solving skills among others.

You could start by learning about it (DSA) and later solving problems related to them from coding sites like leetcode, etc. Also searching about interview questions outside coding field too.

Programming / Re: Journey To Becoming A Native Android Dev (kotlin) by Runningwater(m): 9:55am On Aug 17, 2022
BlaqFaze:
This is public knowledge bro... Google has a beef with Oracle (owners of java) and the only reason java is being supported is because the Android SDK is built with java.

Google is even building another OS called fuchsia...they want it to replace Android.

I'm aware about all those stuffs. My worries is after learning something it, someone starts searching more for spaces that requires it but are less compare to java openings that are more according to statistics.

It's just "like" django and flask framework but not direct comparison.

My opinion though Las Las everyone still going to make their own choice in life

BlaqFaze:
Google doesn't want anybody using java for Android development, java is second class citizen in Android.

There's no reason anybody should learn java over kotlin for android development, same way you shouldn't learn objective-c for iOS development but swift.

I'm curious do you plan on working for Google or it's branches? shocked Cause employers of labour would mostly prefer java except you got convincing words to tell employers why to choose kotlin.

If I were you, I would go for java first then kotlin second.

that's not bloatware compared to what's on transsion devices...the os is filled with Chinese ads and I've experienced an app displaying porn images in the notification bar before and it's pretty hard to delete the bloatware

True but those apps and others are still nuisance to me just as transsion devices pre-installed apps are.

Phones / Re: Why You Should Be Careful Of Transsion’s Bloatware by Runningwater(m): 7:51pm On Aug 16, 2022
It's really too much on transsion related phones I can relate . Though they're all common on most phone manufacturers even my Samsung phone comes with Microsoft related apps and Facebook app among others. I had to disabled the excel and PowerPoint app cause I don't need them and they take memory.

It will definitely take time (although they said two months). The next Government (especially that one that lies a lot) will come and take all the glory because he knows most of you don't even know what is happening and will believe whatever he says.

It kind of cheating to me that any presidency and it's government of any country at a period of time can't actually get the praise they deserved cause of the benefits aren't shown instantly but years later which surely could be accredited to the next ones.

I've been seeing the black young girl ad pop up on YouTube for some time now.

I'm very caution when clicking ads on any platform at all, cause spammers, hackers, scammers usually buy ads from different ads network to spread malwares, bad redirections, and other bad stuffs to cashout from their bait

I remember seeing chat of how some people use Facebook ads too
