Politics › Re: Lagos Bans Hawking By Children During School Hours by Seun(mod): 2:03pm On Nov 22, 2008
I'm not arguing, I'm just alluding to the law of conservation of income. 
If money is no longer coming in from hawking, it must come from somewhere else.
Let me put it this way: banning Garri will not lead to a balanced diet unless free meat is provided.

Sounds reasonable. I assume the dogs are used for drug law enforcement?

Are you going to provide those children with alternative means of making money to sponsor their education?

morpheus24 is right. It's a pity Nigerians are as backward as they are.

Instead of trying to use your flash as RAM, why don't you just buy more RAM and use your flash as flash?
Crime › Re: Reverend King To Be Hanged In Kaduna by Seun(mod): 6:09pm On Nov 20, 2008
He killed people, so I guess I can't complain, even though I oppose the death penalty in developing countries.

Debosky is unavailable at the moment, due to extenuating circumstances.  What about you?
Nairaland General › Re: We Need A New Moderator by Seun(mod): 5:53pm On Nov 20, 2008
FACT: If Siena was "mature" in dealing with the admin, he would still be a moderator.
I had problems with Siena from day one. His vision and mine were never compatible, that's all.
Maturity in dealing with members is not enough, you must also be mature in dealing with the admin.

Moderator found, topic locked!

Someone to keep this section clean and make sure al questions are answered. What about Phemour?

There is no official Nairaland magazine. There is a magazine that wants to be the official magazine.

If you have 25 billion naira, then yes. Otherwise, no.

It's a waste of money sending someone to the moon.

Programming › Re: Tutorials On Game Programming by Seun(mod): 2:13pm On Nov 19, 2008
When I talk to people looking to get into game development some of the first things I often hear fall along the lines of, "How do I make games?" or "I want to make a game like Quake/Everquest/Starcraft and…". The first is just way out of the realm of answerability, as there are too many aspects to possibly go into, and each of those components can be infinitely complex.

The second, however, falls into just being unrealistic in expectations. Starcraft, Everquest and Quake were all made by teams of professionals who had budgets usually million dollar plus. More importantly though, all of these games were made by people with a lot of experience at making games. They did not just decide to make games and turned out mega-hit games, they started out small and worked their way up. This is the point that anyone who is interested in getting into game development needs to understand and repeat, repeat, repeat until it becomes such a part of your mindset that you couldn’t possibly understand life without this self evident, universal truth.

Until you understand that all skills in game development are learned by experience, (meaning to start very small and working your way up) you will be absolutely doomed to never finish your projects. Even the infinitesimal number of teams that do manage to finish a non-trivial project before they have made any smaller ones have to learn incrementally, it just takes them many times longer than if they had started out with smaller projects.


Quake 3: Arena



So where do I start?

Tetris.

Dude, if he wasn't American, he wouldn't be the president elect.
Question: is he white American, black America, or Mulatto?

Assuming they are in fact guilty.
Webmasters › Re: Lagos Rail Mass Transit Website by Seun(mod): 10:54am On Nov 19, 2008
Some people have been away from the country for years. 
They are not foolish, and they are not your "girlfriends".
(Lots of good news has been coming out of Lagos recently)
Politics › Re: Major, 5 Soldiers Jailed For Life by Seun(mod): 10:49am On Nov 19, 2008
Considering how many people must have died at the hands of robbers wielding those weapons, I support this.
Politics › Re: How Taxes Work by Seun(mod): 10:45am On Nov 19, 2008
It rings true, but it's a complicated issue, because society often favors the rich disproportionately. 
If you're rich, you get a lot of benefits that average people will have to fight for.  It's complicated.

Nigerian journalists are known to publish press releases as news. Let's wait until we see the report.

2)  A thief is someone who steals.  If they didn't steal anything, they are not thieves.

Nobody is giving Professor Soludo the authority to "reform the international financial system".
This is just a talk shop.  Any academic with lots of free time will eventually be invited to one.

It seems nobody cares about these stories unless the video is posted on youtube.
Webmasters › Re: WYSIWYG Editors Versus Text Editors by Seun(mod): 10:01am On Nov 19, 2008
Notepad isn't the best - the text mode in Dreamweaver gives you code auto-completion and highlighting. Notepad++ gives you highlighting only. Bothwill increase your productivity over Notepad, especially when just starting out. Customers don't care how clever you are.  They care about the quality of your designs.

What is the reason? Are you making your own rules again, moderator?
