Education › Re: Unspeakable Thing About Medical Schools In Nigeria by ThatWriterBoy(m): 11:20am On Sep 23, 2024
drimzsmoke:
The person who leaked things to medical student, is he a doctorhuh
No, he is a graduate of BMS just like you. Doctors(lecturers) don't do such cause medicine is a noble profession!!!
Yes, the person that is not a doctor, but I saw two doctor lecturers, who paid to give some of their candidates special favours for their exams.

Lecturer leak questions
Students sleep with lecturers
Students pay lecturers

And after 6 yrs lives will be entrusted in their hands
No school is free of this
No school - be it North or South
I wouldn't have believed you, but I have personally seen this happen. I stumbled on a lecturer's phone text messages (I wouldn't tell you how), and I saw numerous texts and credit alerts from some of my faculty mates (I'm not in MBBS but I'm in Basic Medical Sciences) for their Part 1 MB exams. No jokes.

Education › Is There Any Scholarship To Study Medicine Abroad For Anatomy Graduates? by ThatWriterBoy(op): 7:32pm On Feb 27, 2024

Education › Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by ThatWriterBoy(m):
Hello everyone! I'm about to graduate from Human Anatomy Uniport. My GPA would be close to first class, about 4.4something, or at worst 4.2 as my project defence will be at the end of this month.

1. If I apply to the same school I graduated from, would it increase my chances of getting admitted?

2. Can I put awaiting results if my certificate is not out by then?

3. What GPA would I need to have to realistically get in?

4. How many people does uniport normally take for DE to Medicine. Like what's the range.... Between what and what?

5. What's the process like? After I apply for DE through JAMB what next?

6. Is there a chance that they can give me another course like Physiology or Pharmacy if I don't get medicine?

7. What about RSU? They just started their medical school. What do you think about applying there? Can I put first and second choice for DE just like JAMB?

I'm sorry for asking plenty questions. I really appreciate you for your time. Thank you very much.

Education › Re: Truth Or Dare: What Really Is The Game All About In Nigeria? by ThatWriterBoy(m): 11:01pm On Apr 19, 2022
We played this game in our dorm at school. Only boys were in the dorm. There was no sexual dare at all. People were dared to drink urine, take lashes from everybody in the room with a belt. Sha, it was just childish stupidity and maybe wickedness.
If you refuse to do the dare, you would have to pay a plate of Indomie to everybody in the room, and Indomie was our favorite food in school.

Christianity Etc › Is It A Must For Every Christian To Speak In Tongues? by ThatWriterBoy(op): 6:22pm On Mar 28, 2022
I was having a discussion with a friend, and the issue of speaking in tongues came up. I told him that I have doubts concerning this because I believe that the Bible says that the tongues the apostles spoke in were real languages and not unintelligible things like I hear today. I said I believe that not every one can speak in tongues and most people were faking it.

He started telling me that me beliefs were false because according to that final chapter in Mark, one of the signs that follow the people who believe is that they will speak in new tongues. His views placed christians who don't speak in tongues as some kind of lower level christians because they have failed to unlock some inborn power that they have, which can only be unlocked by speaking in tongues.

But what about Paul's question in 1 Corinthians 12; do all speak with tongues? In fact, doesn't Paul's whole teaching on spiritual gifts in 1 Corinthians 12, give the impression that these gifts are given as the Holy Spirit deems fit, and we are supposed to compliment each other with our gifts, for the total edification of the body of Christ?

Can I get your opinions on speaking with tongues?
Programming › Re: Is It A Waste Of Time To Learn Javascript If You Already Know Python? by ThatWriterBoy(op): 1:25pm On Mar 21, 2022
DrLevi:
Lots of misinformation on single thread asking a very simple question.

The Op didn't ask for fanboys to come defending their favourite languages.

@Op, Its not a waste to time learning JS. In fact in the course of your career you would learn many languages depending on your needs. Languages are just tools and the knowledge is always transferable. In fact, you would probably learn you 4th language in just a single day.

You need JS for the web. Modern web apps which you're trying to build are build with mostly Javascript, the days of templates and stuff are over.

Your web app still needs a backend server which is where your python skill(Flask, Django, Fastapi) comes in. You can build your server in any of those, and even with more languages than you can count, including Javascript, Java, C#, Ruby, Php.... it's a long list.
What you choose to build your server with is totally your choice, these battles about best or not is rubbish. Unless you're looking to learn market trending frameworks to get employed, then I propose you ignore the fanboyism and build with whatever you find most pleasant.

Anyway, go ahead and learn JS for your frontend application. Then decide on your backend and eventually get your app done!.
Thank you. This was very helpful.

Programming › Is It A Waste Of Time To Learn Javascript If You Already Know Python? by ThatWriterBoy(op): 7:48pm On Mar 19, 2022
Good evening everybody!
I started learning Python a couple of months back, and I have made good progress. I started learning because I have an idea for a web app for my department, and I would like to launch it for them before we graduate.
After I had finished the Python basics and started studying Flask, someone told me that to make a web app, I would need HTML, CSS and Javascript, so I went to brush up myself in HTML and CSS since I took courses on them a few years ago.
Now, I'm about to start Javascript, but I'm wondering if it is necessary since it is a scripting language, and Python can do same. Should I just continue studying Flask, or should I take a break and complete my Javascript course?
Christianity Etc › Why Is It That When A Pastor Starts A Church, His Wife Automatically Becomes A.. by ThatWriterBoy(op): 7:59pm On Mar 05, 2022
Hello everyone!
So I was wondering: why is it that when a man starts a church, his wife automatically becomes a pastor in the church?

I mean, didn't the Bible clearly state that women should not be pastors? If you doubt me, let me show you in 1 Timothy 2:11-15;

"Women should learn quietly and submissively. I do not let women teach men or have authority over them. Let them listen quietly. For (DON'T FORGET THAT "FOR" MEANS BECAUSE. IN OTHER WORDS, PAUL WAS EXPLAINING WHY WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE PASTORS) God made Adam first, and afterward he made Eve. And it was not Adam who was deceived by Satan. The woman was deceived, and sin was the result. But women will be saved through childbearing, assuming they continue to live in faith, love, holiness, and modesty.
1 Timothy 2:11‭-‬15 NLT (I added the one in brackets for emphasis)


And this is not a Nigerian thing alone. Yes we have Faith Oyedepo, Peace Ibiyeomie, Modele Fatoyinbo etc, but we also have Paula White, Joyce Meyer and there's this black woman that preaches. I think her name is Priscilla Shierer or something.

When one pastor was explaining why, he said that it's because the Bible says there is neither male nor female in Christ (you can find this in Galatians 3 or 4), but is it not the same Paul that wrote Galatians that wrote the verse I placed above? I mean, what could be more clearer than what that passage said?

Please if you have a good explanation, I'm open to listen.

Business › Re: Please How Do I Receive Money From Abroad? by ThatWriterBoy(op): 12:40pm On Feb 23, 2022
OK. I'll text you soon

Ebubu5:
left for you to decide. But I have a payoneer account which receives dollar abroad. And my dollar rate is N565 naira. It is that high because I have a nigerian Domiciliary account so I will take dollar cash from my GTB then go and convert it to naira with aboki. If you do the conversion at CBN rate it is N415 naira or so but mine is N565. So you gain lot more.


Do the mathematics your money is N1,130,000 at my rate.

That is 1million, 1 hundred and 30 thousand naira.

If you can give me my school fees of 30k i can receive the money for you and offer you 1million, 100 thousand, instead of 1million, 130 thousand.


I will also give you the benefit of opening a payoneer account for you to receive funds subsequent time by yourself and also show you how to open dollar account with a nigerian bank and trade dollar at N565 rate or more with an aboki in your area. That is the extra benefit of doing this deal with me, that I will give you.

We will video call extensively so you identify my face and confirm my details for assurance purpose.

I took the work off of Upwork. But from the second option, does that mean they can send the money direct to my account, even if it will invoke charges?

The above is a good solution or simply put ...Google is your friend for solutions. This is how upwork also puts it ....

I just did a quick search. What about Western Union or Money Gram?

404Dev:
Never agree to take any work off upwork again, there are scammers out there who would take advantage of you. The world is a big scary jungle.

As per the payments you can use either of the following

-Payoneer
-Create a payment page in flutter wave and send them the link (you can set the currency in usd)
- A domiciliary account if you have or can get access to.

I am a freelancer and I just did a job for someone who lives abroad (I'm sorry, I did not even ask what country he was from, but when I googled the company, it showed that they were located in the US). I found the job on Upwork, but we agreed to take the interview as well as the whole job proceedings off of Upwork.

Programming › Please I Need Recommendations On How To Learn Python (free Resources And Stuff) by ThatWriterBoy(op): 11:23pm On Feb 17, 2022
Last time I posted, I talked about how I was wondering if it would be possible to code on a tablet. Today, I bought a laptop to learn python. It's a hp compaq with 3GB RAM and 2.53 processor. Someone told me that I needed to have at least 4GB to enjoy coding, but this was what I could get, and I have already installed python and PyCharm with no issues.
I remember in an earlier post, when I mentioned SoloLearn and someone talked about how there are YouTube channels to help me learn better. Please if you know any channel I can follow, I will e glad if you recommend to me.
Also, if you know any book I can download, I will appreciate too.

P/S: I already bought a python course on Udemy, but I'm yet to start, and I wonder if it would take me very far.
