Good sir, can you give us a link to the source of this story? Thanks.

Do you want me to prove that God doesn't exist?

A [b]link to the source [/b]is required, please. If the source cannot be found, the thread must be deleted. Cheers!

I disagree. If not for emotional reasons, why do we strive to be successful? Is it not to satisfy that inner child?

A business without emotion is a business without soul. As for me, my website is a part of my life, and I'm no robot.

www.nairaland.com/chat works, but usually there's nobody there. Let's organize a meeting sometime!

Why Python?

Python code is very concise and readable, which makes programming much easier. You don't have to compile your code to run it, which really speeds up iterative/interactive development and testing. If you write a Python program like a C++ program, it's going to be about 10 times slower. But that doesn't matter much outside games, anyway.

Why SQLite?
SQLite is an embedded database, so you can deploy your application without a DBA. It's quite fast, especially when your queries are simple and fast OLTP queries. It even supports ACID transactions, and is 100% free in every way.

Why HTML?
I have observed that the web is much easier to use than most Win32 Desktop applications. Modern browsers come with a lot of useful features that will take decades to implement in one's own code e.g. spell checking, auto-completion, password management, document and image rendering, et cetera. A web-based application built right will require almost no training because it will be as easy to use as the Internet. And the python GUI sucks!

Why C?
In the rare event that I need more speed than what python can provide, I can just build a Python extension module with C. I'm supposed to have used C in the past, so I should be able to pick it up if ever required.

Some popular buzzwords that mean nothing to me: XML, AJAX, (I will update this list later)

And it works like a charm! The only problem I have with this is that your degree is supposed to reflect your abilities.

I've already told you this is not the way to sell anything to a bank, oga.

The generalization was not necessary

I agree with you. If she had just said, "many Nigerians, even educated ones, are corrupt", it would have been ok.

Let me get this straight. We are angry with Oprah for speaking the truth. Isn't that rather corrupt of us?

As for Oprah, I guess she's just angry with Nigeria because Dangote said he's much richer than she is?

I have no idea, my brother. If you get more information about this NEPa PHCN Payg scheme, please share.

Hello,

I'd like to buy a very good USB to Serial converter, preferably Prolific or Iogear (anything original).

I also require home delivery because the rains are heavy these days and I hate traveling to Lagos.

Is there anyone that can supply me with this? It's very important and very urgent too. Please!

Thanks.

I don't understand why laptops seem to be getting more expensive.

what kind of programming lang. are we looking at here?

Bottom Power 2.0++.NET SDK Runtime

I am beginning to see that it doesn't matter anymore how good your job pays.
It takes discipline and patience to be counted among those who are wealthy.

I can't imagine how "discipline and patience" will make a 15,000 naira per month salary earner wealthy.

Buhahaha. And while he's at it:
- He should "order" the Nigerian economy to start booming!
- Why hasn't he "ordered" peace to reign in the Niger Delta?

Any bizness plan for internet start ups must be hinged on income generation devoid of advertising revenue

Why?

Considering how much work it takes to make a typical marriage work, I wonder whether it's worth it.

How I wish it was so. Unfortunately, we don't have enough universities in Nigeria. This may have something to do with the fact that starting a new university requires the president's personal approval.

Luck is all you need. Failing that, be willing to remain with your partner in old age no matter how deeply you've grown to hate her. You must make up your mind that you will continue to bear the life-long punishment of marriage until it kills you. For sex, you must be content with your secret mistress.

If you're truly a model, you will submit pictures of yourself in nothing but a bikini for our enthusiastic perusal.

Okay, this competition is closed.

He has pasted the code for the ads and that's all there is to it. There's no 'focus' involved.
Yes, he should just forget about the ads and start building up the content, but removing them isn't it.

This is an old thread. Moving to Nairaland section.
