you need to buy a new windows 10 disc with crack (should be 100 or 200 naira) and reinstall the os then activate with the key that came with the disc.

Programming / Re: Help Me. Pls Programers by tippyboy(m): 3:03am On Dec 23, 2017
You need a pc to learn php cos it is server side programming language. You will need to install a server first before you can run php which is very easy to do on pc. Also, most if these online resources will not display very well on small screen devices.

if you're really passionate about programming, you don't really need anybody to teach you cos you can start learning it by yourself. So what are you waiting for, grab an ebook on any programing language of your choice and start learning. when you think it's time to challenge yourself, register at codewar. if you encounter any problem, google search it, im 100% sure that the problem has already been solved at stack overflow

Programming / Re: How Good Is Computer Programming Job Market In Nigeria? by tippyboy(m): 2:34am On Dec 23, 2017
Lucasiangrey:
please,how is the job market for programmers/software engineers in nigeria now and what do you think of it in 3 to 4 years time(in terms of pay,job opportunity and productivity)?...and what are my chances of getting a job in that field considering the course i am studying?...any other advice ,please state it.thanks.
It depends on the programming language you chose to learn. If you choose any programming language like Javascript, python, php, or Java, your chance of getting a job is very high. It doesn't matter the course you study, what matter most is your experience and the previous projects you have done.

I got the invite also. I can't understand why the bootcamp will begin in March..
Lol! March?? that explains why there's not been new fellowship job opening on their website. I'll advise you to grab any other opportunity that comes you way before then. If the bootcamp should start by March, that means you're likely to become a fellow by April, in the next four months.

I just received a mail inviting me for interview at Lagos. Who else got the same?

And does anybody have any idea how the interview would be?
how the interview is gonna be has already been stated clearly in your inbox, you'll be sent a code challenge on Friday and you'd be asked to defend it on the day you chose for the interview.

Also don't make the same mistake i made the last time, don't copy code online, and if you copied it make sure you can defend it very well. Make sure you write a neat and read able code, comment your code very well with meaningful variable name(make sure your variables are in camel case or snake case if they are very long) what else... interview. Google search how to do that, and be careful cos everything you say will be used against you. (just kidding, they are mostly friendly guys with smiley faces and always typing something on their laptops).
there interview questions is usually something like:
have you ever worked in a group project before.?
if you have someone misbehaving in your group how will you handle the situation.?
have you worked on any project recently.?
how will you feel if you don't make it to the bootcamp (please don't answer I will be very sad to this question).
then make sure you know something about Andela most especially the epic value.
and read some other interview questions you can get online.

Goodluck bro.

Hello house, I have not gotten my saberr test link. although I already took the test for a previous cycle. I was thinking that should suffice, but just to confirm I'm not the only one experiencing this.

Also, I have sent Andela a msg, complaining, but I'm yet to get a response.

Abeg wetin make I do?
This might be my last chance and I don't want to miss it.

Andela will not send you the link if you have not finished your NYSC. U have to be done with your nysc first before you can apply, but if you have finished your service and yet to receive any link then something is wrong somewhere.

GNLD?? Their slogan is :

GNLD... frustrating the life of naija unemployed youth since 1960.

The funniest thing is they keep changing their location from one place to Another when the see that their address has been detected.

It's like they normally hold a meeting and come up with a better strategy of how to frustrate the life of all the unemployed youths in Nigeria. Also, I'm very sure some people would have missed a great opportunity by not going for the interview because they thought the company is probably GNLD.

Most of these Nigerian players are not world cup material. They are just standing all around the pitch, Victor Moses is da mvp. He's not letting the melancholic behavior of his team weigh him down. Very creative guy with nice pace and pass

Jokes apart

Most times, I ask myself if God can be so cruel to subject his children to eternal pain by watching them burn in a fiery furnace for their misdeeds.

Sometimes, I even ask myself what is the happiness and joy in making heaven if my wife and children are burning in hell?

The OP has answered most of your questions, but I also want you to please read Mathew 22, 24-30.

Thanks.

Some worthless chip with bad processing power

Politics / Re: Nigeria’s Economy Largest In Africa As Rebasing Boosts GDP To $405bn by tippyboy(m): 9:35pm On Dec 20, 2013
kmariko: Nigeria’s economy largest in Africa as rebasing boosts GDP to $405bn

December 19, 2013 | Filed under: main story | Author: PATRICK ATUANYA

In about three weeks from now, when the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) releases the rebased Gross Domestic Product (GDP) it will show that Nigeria has overtaken South Africa as Africa’s largest economy, which will have great economic and geopolitical implications.

This is according to emerging markets focused investment banking firm Renaissance Capital, whose team of analysts were in Abuja, over the weekend.

“We are revising up our estimate of Nigeria’s GDP by 53 percent. The NBS has nearly completed its work, and our new estimate is that a 45 percent to 60 percent uplift is likely, and we are taking 53 percent as the mid-point figure. We expect the data in January,” said Renaissance Capital analysts led by Charles Robertson, its global chief economist and head of macro strategy, in a research report released yesterday (Dec 18).

“This means Nigeria, at $405 bn in 2013 would be the largest economy in Africa, ahead of South Africa at around $370 bn.”

Other impacts of the rebasing include the possible reduction of growth rates to 5 – 6 percent from 6 – 7 percent, and an increase in GDP per capita to $2,400 from around $1,700, in essence moving Nigeria into middle income economy territory.

“Sectors that may show the biggest upward revision range from Nollywood to IT and telecoms, while we think agriculture will shrink from around 40 percent of GDP to 25 – 30 percent of GDP,” said Robertson.

The rebasing will show public debt shrinking to 13 percent of GDP from 20 percent of GDP. Public external debt would be below 2 percent of GDP, while the current account surplus may still be 5 percent of GDP which will leave the sovereign in a good position to borrow if needed.

According to Rencap “In a Fed tapering world, these revisions make Nigeria look good, but credit rating upgrades (Ba3/BB-) are likely to be constrained by the most competitive presidential elections Nigeria will have seen since democracy returned in the 1990s.”

The NBS is seeking to change the calculations of Nigeria’s GDP, using a new base year of 2010 to give a better indication of the size and composition of its economy.

Most governments overhaul GDP calculations every few years to reflect changes in output and consumption, such as telecoms, financial services and internet usage, but Nigeria has not done so since 1990 (about 23 years) suggesting that the previous GDP framework underestimated economic activity.

The numbers will have new implications for investors and the geopolitics of Nigeria’s place in Africa.

“We would be very surprised if recent and pending investment decisions are taken on the basis of the 1990 national accounts,” said FBN capital research analysts led by Gregory Kronsten, in a note released in August.

“The new GDP series will however be tracked by potential investors, such as suppliers of consumer goods and services,” Kronsten said.

Nigeria already hosts the second largest debt and stock markets in Africa, behind South Africa.

Its stock market is valued at $77 billion, while the secondary market bond trading volumes, ”certainly exceed those of Egypt and Morocco and represent around 20 percent of South Africa’s turnover,” according to Samir Gadio, an emerging markets strategist, at Standard Bank, in London.

Overall – Nigeria’s debt, budget and current account ratios will look among the best in Africa and in the emerging markets (EM), once the rebased figures are released, notes Robertson.

“We like Nigeria in the coming quarter – though we see domestic bond yields up a little, at around 13.5 percent on average. Nigeria is going to rise from 14 percent of MSCI frontier markets to around 20 percent in May 2014 which could attract equity investors wanting exposure to frontiers and/or Africa. We expect the NGN to remain at 160/$ until June 2014. But we are still nervous for the second half of 2014,” Robertson said.
