PhonesRe: Opera Is About To Be Bought By A Chinese Consortium For About $1.2 Billion by simiolu1(m): 1:57pm On May 29, 2016
Themandator:
Please just explain the uniqueness of Mozilla... I honestly do know. I visit playstore to find the millions of download it has and when I download I can't find anything interesting so delete and again I keep telling myself there must be a reason for this millions of download so I re-download only to have it dormant and then re-deleted.
Just what is the selling point.... I'm only begining to tolerate UC otherwise opera that allows me open as many tabs as I want to is still my favorite
If you're a website developer, you'd hate Opera. opera doesn't have the capacity to optimise the web app experience like chrome and Mozilla. Chrome, safari and torch browsers are built on the WebKit framework which opera does not support. Also, it's this part or the world that cares about data savings. so we want to save data at the expense of better use experience. if you don't understand let me ask you. between Mozilla, chrome, uc browser and opera, which ones offer a better experience on websites like Facebook, twitter, eBay, Amazon, yahoo mail, gmail etc?


as I type this, eBay and Amazon no longer support opera mobile (you can't access them with opera mini or Opera). I believe that in there nearest future, if opera doesn't offer a better web app experience, other major companies will drop it.

BTW, Mozilla allowance you to save a page for offline view as a PDF file. I just thought I'd add that

So the price remains N2k sir!
Why do you think I want to buy OEM? Of course I know it can't be compared to new parts made in CHINA!

Hmmm. I don't know what am thinking but is it merely a coincidence that you were called to resume work after the budget signing? Anyway congratulations bro. More blessings...
A friend called me this morning. A company he did some weeks training with, then an interview like 2 months ago just called him up yesterday and his documentation procedures have started.

Spoke to some people in industries too; it seems lots of contracts have been signed since the budget was signed. A coincidence? Maybe. But I don't think so

stephen2016:
I am talking about product design. Logo design and architectural designs . those are my flares
(flairs)

Ok. For product design, kindly read about Jonathan Ive (Apple's Chief Design Officer). Surprisingly, this guy went to a design school; not the traditional university. Unconfirmed rumours say he is the highest paid executive at Apple today.

Logo design--Paul Rand. That man's portfolio humbles logo designers till tomorrow.

Architectural design? Don't know the big names in that field.

However, if design is your thing, then you had better start taking it serious. I studied Physics and graduated with a 2.1. A guy in my class who graduated with a 2.2 was probably the first guy that got employed in my class. He simply took his design and drawing skills serious. Way back in 100level, this guy would sketch comics with pencil and biro. By the time we were in final year, he had moved to colouring the comics with Photoshop and Illustrator. When he went for his interview, he only showed the panel his portfolio on his blog and voila; he got the job.

This link is a link to one of his comics which was posted by a friend of his.
https://www.nairaland.com/2411482/introducing-penzu-comics

My advice:

1. Get familiar with the softwares you are going to need to ply your trade.
2. Learn to draw if you can't. Believe me, drawing makes design easy.
3. If you have the funds, get enrolled in an online design class to know the basics of what the branch of design is about. If you don't have the funds, you can use torrent engines to look for tutorials.
4. If you have the funds, get a drawing tablet like Wacom.

I love designing myself but its not my thing. However when I play with logo design, results like the image below happen. The logo was meant for a business venture between a friend and I. However, the venture was D.O.A grin

Please I need some advice from the gurus here, I graduated with a 2.2/ 3.34 in Mechanical Engineering, I am presently doing my NYSC. Before you drop and advice, just know that my greatest passion is designing, but i dont know if there is a market for that. I dont really like the idea of working for somebody, I just want to be my own boss and do my own things.
If Nairaland is your testing ground to know if there's a market for designers, then you're on a long thing.
Secondly, Design as a word is quite vague or at best describes a large industry.

Are you talking about product design, logo design, web design, industrial design?

Stillfire:
Although I agree her money is his money and vice versa in a genuine functional family unit, however, it is common COURTESY to inform people when you take money from them. Anything other than that is teetering on the lines of stealing. We all learned courtesy and social etiquette in kindergarten or highest primary 1. Got absolutely nothing to do with gender differences, but social etiquette.
Not everyone had the luxury of going to a school where social etiquette was taught. This is common sense na. Simples. Not trekking someone after taking their stuff is stealing. Some call it borrowing tjo

Yeah. In reality those are big players. Nokia just completed an acquisition not long ago. Others include Netcom etc

nogames:
Lol what about all telecom vendors, most of them pay their staffs (not contract) good salaries, some are pay in dollar equivalent... Even their contract staff's salary is better than most civil servant salaries.
When people talk about PWC, KPMG and other consulting companies in respect to pay, I laugh. Telecom vendors pay way more than that. I know a telecom vendor staff that is not a manager but his December bonus was 65k dollars.

Stop trying to mislead people.

Folks may be unaware of the dangers associated with shovelling snow. If you are superman, then step aside and allow those who are not, to learn.
Every manual labour work has dangers; from construction to drilling. So because there are dangers associated with shovelling snow, then we should become HSE/EHS experts in order to do it?

Oya, tell me the dangers involved make I learn. And don't you dare post a link for me to read up.

You asked me the difference between shovelling snow and the shovelling I was talking about. And you had to start comparing digging and shovelling. Are you kidding me
FamilyRe: The Problems Associated With Shovelling Snow by simiolu1(m): 7:59pm On Jan 30, 2016
tpiaobsession:
ok, I got excited as you said.

Now, can you compare shovelling snow which is the topic, to the shovelling you are referring to?
Shovelling is shovelling anywhere, any time, any day. What is being shovelled may differ but the technique of shovelling snow that you put up there is also relevant to shovelling dirt, sand, cement or what have you.
