Lucifer is different from Satan. Jesus was also referred to as Lucifer, morning star. Satan is not the opposite of God, they are not equal. One was created by the other. Lastly, some parts of the bible are not meant to be taken literally & vice versa, that's where most of the confusion sprouts from. Do some real personal research first before quoting. |
I registered on the Inec website after I saw this post. Set an appointment date & went. The online stuff is basically useless, you would still fill the same form offline & they would snap your pictures again with their devices. The only thing that won't change is your assigned VIN number. Secondly they gave us a small POS like receipt that contained one's details & a QR code. That's all. |
IdeasPro:True, it's one of the things that separates western domainers from us. Long term planning. |
gentlewind:Congrats, dropped this 2020. Buyer went cold on the sale. |
skj1377:Gays are not born, they are made. If we minus those born with androgynous properties & the obvious mental brainwashed cases & do a little research, You would notice a pattern, someone abused them at a young age, they grow up and do the same. All that I was born like this is mostly bullshit, how do you think gays & lesbians flourish in seminaries & convents?. I feel sorry for any child adopted by them. |
Most of them avoid building the legs because of the pain. The gluteus is the largest group of muscle in the body and working them with squats will have you walking on eggshells for most of the time , but it is still not an excuse. The calves are different, they are the most stubborn, if one isn't gifted with large calves normally, it would take years to grow to any reasonable size. The guy in the second pic actually builds his legs, the first might be genetic, the rest are just deliberately skipping leg day. |
Starting steps Decide which route you would take, the self-taught or a structure based learning program. Based on time available, cost and learning ability, the options available to everyone differs. My advice for newbies is to experiment first, go through the free courses to determine whether product design would be a good fit for you and start with UX first. Then if you can effectively cut through the information overload and won't get overwhelmed, go the self-taught route, pick one resource at a time and finish it. Or follow the structured way jejeli like the BRT make discouragement agberos and procastination sars no go block you for road. A word of advice for those who jump into professions because of the pay, please go to reddit and read the tales of those who want out of the product design industry. That could be you in 3-7 years. Coding is worse if it's not your passion but what do I know. Singing Fela Kuti: Follow follow Note: Check LinkedIn to check for the more recognized certifications in Nigeria and worldwide.

Now let’s use the Lagos BRT transportation service concept to explain all of the above: This is actually service design, a subset of UX design. A UX designer would design the experiences you would have across this 3 phases: 1) From the entrance to the ticketing boot; 2) Waiting area to boarding; 3) Ride experience to disembarking etc. Note: If you watched the movie Transformers age of extinction, the scene where the CEO was walking into his building and complained about the experience is an example. He wanted to convey a certain feeling attached to his brand to visitors. Entering a bank revolving door here is another (Zenith, Firstbank, GTB have their respect sounds) A UI designer would design the physical environment: 1) Station building and layout (Hint: Oshodi Bus terminal) 2) Suggest the color and sitting arrangements for the building and types of vehicles to use based on UX research etc. A front developer would build: 1) The bus terminal using building materials, monitor development and manage repairs. 2) Be in charge of vehicles inspection and repairs etc. A graphic designer would design: 1) The tickets, flyers, boarding card concept banners, stationaries etc. A web designer would design: 1) Website, boarding app and other digital products. A product designer would oversee all while making sure: 1) Products are relevant to the industry; Would BRT’s fare in Lagos, Onitsha and Borno? 2) Products are functional to the users; does the building/vehicles meet passenger’s needs, do they work as required? 3) Cost effective for the stakeholders; Are our choices feasible? Will the company make revenue or bleed unnecessary money? You can imagine the unicorn trying to do all of these by themselves. |
Check the caliber of the ladies you move around with & the way you relate with them. Maybe you portrayed yourself as a spender and not as someone who would make them earn every bit of that cash. |
WantsandMore:Does Airtel have different router types? I would like to know the one sold at the original price. Those buying their 5k promo mifi would only get the Vida M4, while the Vida M2 that has a screen is still sold at 10k. I think the same applies to their routers. |
The best stories are those that are composed of truths & fiction in equal quantities. |
The self taught role is good for those who are disciplined & can efficiently cut through the information overload. It's cheaper but your abilities would be the proof. Are you good at what you do? Bootcamps provide a more structured process, the issue is they all have different methods, course content & their respective certificates are valued differently by employers. Take UI/UX for example, You can't compare a careerfoundry graduate with someone who completed the Google Ux course. The latter provides the student with relevant foundational knowledge while the former will provide more preferable practical industry experience. Their reputation precedes them. Same cannot be said for many other so called bootcamps/courses that overpromise & under deliver. You'll just waste money. One has to be careful. My advice for those who can't take the self taught route is to get foundational knowledge first using platforms like Udemy, Coursera, Udacity etc, then build from there with the below factors considered. Cost, Time constraints & Value Added. |
Before we start I noticed many people especially HR's are confused with design roles and the skillset that differentiates each, although most are guilty of just copying role descriptions from other job adverts. You can easily tell those who have no single idea of what the job role entails, this should help clear your doubts and also avoid places where they are deliberately looking for unicorns at cheap rates. Will try & explain all clearly. 1) UX Designer. make a product or service usable, enjoyable, and accessible, they focus on user’s satisfaction and ensures the product fulfills the user’s need. E.g. How does entering a danfo bus and a BRT feel? Which one makes you enter aggressive mode? How do you act when bringing out your IPhone 11 in both buses? Do you crave for the seats of a danfo? They are so soft and comfortable right? That’s what UX is about, the feeling. 2) UI Designer. builds the interfaces for machines or software. They focus on the looks and what they convey. E.g. When you look at the BRT and a danfo shape, what comes to your mind: Rough & Rugged or Calm and Chill? When you look at their respective seats, what memory does your butt reminds you of? When you enter a danfo, do you instinctively know the bad seats? The ones with no back support or are bent at a 35 degree? UI designers focus on intuitive design 3) Graphic Designer/Web Designer. both focus on aesthetics but the main difference is the graphic designer focuses on prints publications, branding & advertising while the web designer focuses exclusively on creating the visuals for websites, apps, and digital products. One communicates an idea/info through individual graphics while the other creates polished websites, apps etc. with the appropriate look and feel. 4) Front End developer. is a software engineer who implements web designs done by a UI designer (backed by research from a UX designer) through coding languages like HTML, CSS and JavaScript. They are also called web developers. 5) Product Designer. A product designer on the other hand ensures a product is relevant, functional and is cost effective. It’s like the Full Stack of design. They manage the whole process and more (UX, UI, Coding, Project Management, Product roadmap etc.), their job is to solve problems that might spring up from the initial process at any stage in time. This should not be confused with product management, product designers solve problems and are responsible for its quality and integrity while product managers are responsible for the process organization: they organize the work of the former, decide on the priorities and assign tasks. 6) Design Unicorn. is a jack of all trades that can do all or most of the above thoroughly and efficiently at an affordable price. That kind of person can research, design, code, write, create and edit contents, creating animations, pitch to stakeholders, manage sales, offer business advice etc. all alone, . Na one man army, no assistants. Seeing as most of the above job descriptions takes years to even get a grip on, my advice on seeing such job listings is to run, such organizations have no clear cut role for you. You will eventually end up doing almost anything. And the pay and stress won’t be worth it.

This should be a step by step exposition on how to become a product designer using my personal experiences. Stay tuned.

One of the reasons I will never buy stuff like produced in china canned beef. You never know what to expect as the Chinese can't be trusted, they don't really care. |
Learner47:Please, how long did it take for the payment from Dan to get credited to your bank account? |
On the location issue. Your Gmail is region-locked(not permanently though) & this location can be traced . There's is a chrome add-on for that. Think it's the same too with most online accounts.VPN would only hide your location on websites using analytics & all that but it's the internet, you can always be traced. |
Bonsujk:Just playing the devil's advocate after considering the not too strong seller's stance. You're right about the udrp, might be construed as trying to disrupt their business if he developed it along their line of business or anything similar. Doesn't distract from the fact that It's still a brandable non trademarked name with multitude of uses. The onus is on the owner & his level of knowledge. |
