Hy guys, I don't know if you have been in this, my woman that agreed to be the mother of my kids as stated by her recently stopped talking to me, picking my calls because she needed a 3million naira marriage.

I told her please why not we do moderate and use the remaining for investment. She said no. The three million is even small.

When I asked her what will we use the 3million to do, she said to buy furniture for the home. Uptill now she doesn't pick my calls, reply my chat if not that no be God showed her to me I would have deleted her number off my phone but am still keeping it for a reason I don't even know.

We have been together for long, not until a friend of mine got married and I told her they did thier marriage not less than 300k, then she said it's a big lie.

Oga..I for say u b big mumu..

God does not force anyone on us, he gave us d freedom of choice...if u see that u guys re not in agreement...u share d grace in fellowship

I get similar issue as urs...mine I told her dat we should do small thing of about 300k..so that we can Japa together after d marriage...she no gree... saying we need around 500k+, and other expenses which I calculated..it was about a million plus...I just dey laugh for my mind say for this buhari regime...I will waste 1 million naira out of my life savings...not at all...

Bro, forget it...u will get a better lady that will appreciate what u Ve....


Don't go into debt because of any lady... better invest d money...some relationship won't lead to marriage...pls, don't b a SIMP

I wish I knew programming earlier, I won't Ve wasted my time after my National diploma trying to gain admission into university...cause Nigeria school is a Big scam

More details?

I think what he means is that how easy is it to b a freelancer data analyst like web developer?

tensazangetsu20:
Everyone that knows me off Nairaland knows I am a huge pessimist but when it comes to tech or the tech industry in general I am the greatest optimist you can find. I believe tech has the potential to change people's lives and it has done so. It is also the only industry that thrives on merit. No one cares what school you went to, what grades you had. What people care about is what you can do. You can't say the same about engineering or law or medicine.

I made this same thread last year and after working professionally for a while now, I believe there are some things that are important but I overlooked and I am making this again to guide the newbies on the right path. This thread is subjectively my own opinion but you can do your own research before picking up a path to stick to.

The focus on this thread will be on web development and the path to learning it right as I believe web development is the most profitable aspect of programming a Nigerian can get into. There are other fields but I don't know how profitable they are or how easy they are to break into.

If I was to start learning web development today in order to get a junior web dev role, I would start like this :

I would learn HTML. This is practically the easiest path and I believe absolutely everyone can learn this. After that, I would move to CSS. This is where the problem starts and by this level, people start to give up. I believe CSS is easy especially with the right course and I would always recommend Maximillian Schwarz CSS the complete guide course as that course made me not fear CSS. As you are learning these things, please build alongside. Dont just watch videos and sleep and think you have known them. Trust me you haven't known them at all. Implement the knowledge to cement it.

Once you are comfortable with CSS move on to Javascript. At this level, 80 percent of self-learners have given up. It's most people's first programming language and honestly, as a first language, javascript isn't easy. I also recommend the javascript course from Maximillian Schwarz. I still believe it's the best javascript course ever made and I still refer to it in my daily job as a developer.

Now this is where it gets tricky, I usually tell people to move on to React after Javascript, and rightly so but once you have learned javascript and you have found yourself to be very comfortable with it, start learning data structures and algorithms. I used to say this isnt important at all and was a waste of time but after working as a dev for more than a year, trust me I was just being very stupid. You cant even be a programmer without solid fundamentals in data structures. It doesn't matter whether you are a platform developer, a frontend developer, a backend developer, a WordPress developer or whatnot. You need your data structures and algorithms. It's like building a house on sand. Sooner or later it's gonna come collapsing. How do you even implement infinite scrolling in React without knowing graphs and how they work? Thats just one scenario. Double for loops in salesforce will break your org beyond proportions you cant imagine and a whole lot of other scenarios I cant even list out here which I have experienced for myself.


You don't need to spend 8 hours a day figuring out data structures and algorithms once comfortable with javascript. I recommend an hour or two a day. Learn the basic data structures (arrays, LinkedList, stacks, queues, graphs, trees) and the basic sort algorithms even if you don't understand it initially, cram it. Every day repeat what you have crammed then solve questions on leetcode easy to medium. No one will ask hard to a junior dev even medium is also very rare but just do it. Aside even learning data structures to be a better developer, its also the path to the very highly paid jobs. The earlier you learn them the better job hunting will go for you. Just imagine it like this, it takes you 4 months to be comfortable with javascript and you need like another 4 months for react, a platform and your projects and you are solving 1 to 2 dsa questions daily in the 4 months up to react. When ready to job hunt, count how many questions that is instead of waiting for when you have everything and you start job hunting to start learning it and you start failing interviews everywhere. The earlier the better even if you dont understand cram. Companies use the same questions which are available online.

Next is a javascript framework. I recommend React, I won't even advise my enemy to waste their time with vue but some will do it and still come online to cry. The react ecosystem is big and getting bigger. You have gatsby, you have blitzjs, you have Nextjs. Even in blockchain and web3 go and check most of the jobs require proficiency in React. Learn React !!! Enough said.

At this level, you should have your projects beautiful nice designs well created and implemented. Create a CV and start job hunting. Dont limit yourself to Nigeria. Apply everywhere. UK, US, Japan, Sweden. Tech transcends borders. Apply to jobs like a mad man.

At this job hunting stage, leetcode should be increased to at least 4 hours everyday and learning should still be done after React I recommend a platform. Same as my thread last year but most platform dev interviews are still algo based so no issue for you there.

You can also start looking at backend too but honestly if you have followed everything here, getting a job should be very easy.

Op, God bless you for this...

If I say what is on my mind now, let's just leave it at "every man is a r*pist".

Ur Dad inclusive

MaDaRa01:
Good morning my fellow nairalanders.. I'm currently facing some emotional and psychological problems, and I don't know what to do again... Here's how it all happened, and the after effects... I'm the first born from my mom and dad, my sister came after 4 years, though she was born when I was staying with my dad cos dey disengaged for some reason, so my sister lives with my mom. I stayed with my dad most of my life not until recently I came to visit my mom (she already had another two kids for another man)
Throughout my stay with dad, I only called and chat with my mom and sis and half siblings. Sometimes coming to spend a few days of Christmas with them. Recently I came back to stay for some month cos of my exams. And also to bond with my siblings. During my first three months, me and my sister have bonded to the extent that we are always together, strolling around together, sometime eating from the same plate. Anywhere you see me you'd see my sister. Her friends and others that didn't know me at first thought I was her boyfriend. It continues like that till this Monday, few days ago, she did sthing wrong that really angered me and I tried correcting her as the elder brother, I beat her up, I really beat her up, even went as far as kicking her in the stomach. You know if you are really angry you do things without thinking about the consequences. Not until I calmed down that I knew i had gone to much, ordinary scolding should have been okay. Since then she started hating me Even my other siblings stop relating well with me, I became a stranger in my mother house. But at first I thought nothing about it,i didn't even swallow my pride to apologize and make up with my sister. my mom asked about the matter I just told her to forget it that I have exams to write I don't need disturbance. Then the worse started to happen, two days later I began to feel it, more like a heartbreak that comes days after you breakup with your girlfriend. I started feeling. Lonely, depressed an physiologically unstable...
It feel like I had broken up with my girlfriend of 5 years? I can't stop thinking about my sister, anytime I hear I name or even see her around the house, my heart won't be at peace. Boom!!! I started getting jealous anytime she's interacting with male friends in the neighborhood, I always feel like who are they to be talking with my sister, some how like they are snatching my girlfriend. I almost got into a fight with a guy because of this... My emotions became unstable, I don't want to see any girl Apart from my sister.. I then called my dad and just opened up to him, he called my sister and though she said nothing is wrong with us, just siblings occasional quarrel, but deep down I know it's something else and I can't explain it. One of my close friends said it's infatuation. Others said it's lust, but I don't have any sexual feeling, to her before and during this issue.


Up to the psychologist and therapist in NL. kindly advise me on what to do, if not for my exam I would have gone back, but every single day I keep spending here is only worsening it

You guys come to my aid.



lalasticlalala fp please

Ha...how can u ve deep feeling for ur Sister?
U need Jesus...ur sister is ur blood...d love u ve for ur parents should b extended to ur sis.. nothing more...

First it was a man who beat his wife to death for asking for a refund of the money she lent him.

Second it was a man who beat his fiancé to death because of a one thousand naira phone charger.

Now it's a man who want to kill a woman for denying him sex.

In conclusion, ALL MEN ARE DEVILS.

Men have mental issue

You sincerely do not need the services of a travel agent to apply for a UK visa as the UK immigration process is pretty straightforward. Take your time and read this thread https://www.nairaland.com/5233246/general-uk-visa-enquiries-part you will get all the answers you seek.

Goodluck sir.

Great job man, pls with the new immigration policy coming up next year.., will it be easier for people that ve skills to enter UK through tier 2 visa, especially areas that re called shortage skill. e.g programmer, I want to apply for this tier two visa next year.., I don't know if the post Brexit will affect tier 2 visa.

[quote author=Jayrockk post=94025189]UK is a good place but the cost of living is high and most cases when one is done with his/her program they toss u out. For me Canada is better but since you're in the IT route u should consider Germany, tons of opportunities there. Goodluck chale[/quote

I think Germany is hard now, especially for Nigerians... pls is their a better way??

niceadebola:
Hello People,
Please I am about to choose between Canada(Express Entry) and going for my masters in the UK. I have only got my school fees of about 10,000 pounds. This means I would have to hustle for my feeding, accommodation and other basic needs. I want to enrol for M.Sc in data science and I have over 5 years of experience in the IT industry. Now, my questions are:
1. How easy is it for me to get student job (could be any kind of job just to survive)
2. Cheap cities with easy of getting student jobs
3. Prospect of getting job after M.Sc in Data Science
4. Getting Job in the UK vs Canada

Many thanks

pls, someone should pls help...I'm also in the same dilemma, same age range, but not yet married....considering the fact that express entry is good for people below d age of 30 years

Henrymorre:
don't mind this fellow. Amd is the leading cpu now. Any Core i3 or i5 out there, you will see a faster and better AMD than it at a cheaper price. Be guided.

pls, don't confuse the guy...u can't get d new version of AMD system for that price range...
the cheap AMD system re not meant for programming...

it is better for him to settle for core i3 or core i5 as LordPherule said....
I used d former AMD system and I can categorically tell u that it is not good for programming...

To get d new Version of ÀMD system u will ve a budget of 150k+ for fairly used...

Those AMD system of 60-90k re not meant for programming..

martin1772:
Good afternoon everyone. Please I want to know the difference between AMD and Intel processor and which one is the best.

There are different types of AMD System...
1. the low end Amd system that get hot...
it is mainly use for office work, I used one last two years, hp 15....
u can get a new one for less than 100k...
2. The advance AMD system...,which is a gaming system,... it works on heavy graphics...
u can't get this type of system for anything less than 250k

for d Intel processor, which is common, is far far better than the low AMD system....

getting a system depends on ur pocket and what u really want it for... i

I ve gone through d comments above and I agree with majority of them...

bro,let me tell u d truth, d Lady does not love u,even if u finally end up with her and take her to Canada, she will still leave u when things re not going right...

I'm in a similar situation as urs,though I later asked her what makes her reject my offer,she mistakenly said dat she can't tie herself down with a man for long,I.e perhaps she thinks dat i won't be ready soon,...but she is ready to make me her best friend I.e Friend zone me.if she has no other alternative, she will use me as a substitute. she said we should see what d future holds.

i ve also friend zone her,cause I ve reduced my calls and d way I picked her calls, maybe once in a month we talk on phone...

my little advice for u is that u should forget her,their re millions of lady dat re far better than her. u don't know what d future holds...
how do u know she will make a better wife??

go to Canada, secure ur future,u will see a better lady dat suit u and can add value to ur life.

I travelled recently to somewhere far from home,and I met countless of ladies dat ve more quality than d one I'm dying for over a year...
educated,goal oriented and respectful..
I'm even confused, I don't even know who to date,cause each of them ve something

spectacular dan d one I used one year to pursue...

pls,don't make d mistake of telling her about Canada and then proposing to her,she will certainly accept,and later use and dump u...
be wise...

some of my married friends do tell me not to force a relationship, especially marriage...

marriage is another school of its own
