$5 can buy you a week's worth of grocery in your backwards country.

Ok, I will offer $50 Bitcoin to anyoyne who can inform me of some nigerian hacking/419 forums. I am sure with this money you can buy a house in nigeria and make your family proud

Ok. You win. You got me. With $50, i can get a good place in lekki. I will give you the info you need if you are ready.

I will share a BTC wallet here. Once you fund it, i will list them all out for you. For $200 i will even give you more than that. The $200 should set me up permanently.

Deal?

Flutter setup on my windows took less than. 1 hour for me.

On windows, you dont have XCode and cant run iOS simulators. You cant build for mac os too. Just android.

When you need to configure/test the iOS portion of your app, you would need to look for someone with a mac who has xcode or use a Paas.

Thats the difference.

My own problem was it starting again from the beginning if anything goes wrong. Anyways another question is why go through all this when you could just build with Java or kotlin, is it cause flutter can make app for both Android and IOS? Is that the only advantage?

One code, all apps.

Plus the immense support from Google.

Lol, almost 40GB to setup, for this Nigeria grin

LOL. No. Only macbook is heavy.

Linux was lighter. Can’t remember the consumption again but it was less than 10gb i think.

The annoying thing is the long background downloads on first flutter run.

What I meant by the installation is a headache was that it took hours for me to set it up. And most of those time was just downloading some large files. And then sometimes internet issue and it has to start over again. Anyways this was like 2 years ago. Let me give it a try again.

Flutter is truly heavy

But when compared with xcode, flutter is very small. Xcode is over 12GB in size and you need it when using flutter on Mac. Don’t forget to add Android Studio. Budget 22gb of installation files for a full mac installation. Windows or Linux will be less but a cross dev would need mac one day.

I run two flutter installations. One on my MacBook Pro and one on my linux. Installing flutter is real work.

Why would someone pick flutter over React native?

For people coming from JavaScript land where everything is like Oshodi under bridge, flutter can be complex.

If you have solid a background in more structured languages, then it should be a breeze.

Installing flutter is complicated if you have little understanding of how a computer works behind the gui. You might have been used to just clicking next to install.

I will choose flutter many times over RN.

Learning flutter would even make you a better Typescript programmer

The downsides of dart is the need for extra code generation for basics like json which some other languages have baked in already. I dont like code generators and i try to avoid them when possible because they are simply stop gaps that would hopefully be resolved in future iterations.

Flutter also does not handle basics like routing and state management well without too much boilerplate which is why we have solutions like riverpod and getx in the first instance.

All these could stem from the fact that flutter is less opinionated (just like react) than modern libraries like svelte which uses a simple $: to handle reactivity and sveltekit with its simple directory routing.

Thank you

You come here, register your fake account and ask for 419 scam forums so you can pay a miserable $5 to the person who responds?

You evidently are a ‘fresher’ in whatever establishment you come from.

This is not how to set honeypots.

You are so deluded by your unfounded supremacist assumptions that you had to come to programming section to post this nonsense. We are programmers and we know our stuff round computers but does that make us scammers?

Apart from insulting our sensibilities by assuming we have scam forums (yes, i can see you have gone all over nairaland and you can’t seem to pinpoint scammers).

In your identity ridden country where everyone is identifying as pressing irons, you have the effrontery to come here looking for people who would identify as snitches?

Carry your $5 and go buy yourself a tepid coffee from whatever rusty cabin is close to your office.

Whomever suggested in your Monday meetings that this was a good idea, when you meet him in the hallway, kick him or her or it or them or whatever they identify as in the crotch.

Education / Re: JW'S Please What Is Wrong With Beard? by truthCoder: 8:49am On Apr 24, 2023
Shaving beards was an European thing. It was part of their cultural expectation of male grooming.

Some businesses around the world also have cultures that expect their males to have a clean shave.

Now if you are an independent male, who is one who doesn’t depend on a clean shave for his salary, you can keep beards if you want or do not want.

Religious assumptions and adherence is a clear sign of limited emancipation.

I am living like i dont have a working immune system, i fall sick regularly like every week. last week i was on malaria drugs and antibiotic, i havent finished it then again yesterday i fall sick again nd they inject me with another malaria drug and give me another antibiotic.

i am tired of taking these poisons i feel like they hv started affecting my liver, i am very vulnerable to viruses and bacterias whenever a person cough to my face the following day i will fall sick.

i dont have hiv as i did the test several times all negative, but i suspect i have cancer cux of the presence of a swollen lymph node on my neck. guys im truly tired and depressed i cant hustle normally because of my condition please if you know anything that can boost my immunity tell me. because of my condition i know a lots of antibiotics like cipro,amoxyl,doxycline,clarithromycin,azithromycin e.t.c i dont know why these doctors never get tired of prescribing these drugs to me. i live constanly with a stomach discomfort, fever, flu, colds nd catarh there is no any known ulcer meds that i hvnt take in my life but i am still thesame. its depressing me nd making me suicidal. i dont need money from anyone i just need help from people that went through thesame situation or people that know of a solution.

There was a time someone cough on me i spent complete 2weeks sick.

You might have an allergy to something you have not discovered.

You need to change your food gradually and monitor.

For example, try to eliminate foods or drinks đŸș ne after the other. The ones you eat and dont fall sick, write them down, the ones you eat snd fall sick, write them somewhere else.

Eat more of the ones that make you healthy and none of the ones that make you sick.

If you were in USA, they would have recommended some tests to determine what you are intolerant to. In Nigeria, everything is malaria

Programming / Re: So Celebs Want Us To Buy Their Music But They Don't Want To Buy Blue Tick? by truthCoder: 5:20pm On Apr 23, 2023
MrBrownJay1:


Twitter is forcing anyone who wants to be recognized to pay for the service (that was normally free for all in the past)... that would be the same thing as artists who had their music for free on youtube/spotify etc to now say that you MUST buy their album if you ever want to listen to it.

Why should a perk be free?

The OP is right. Twitter pays salaries and has bills. If they feel like they want to charge for premium services, they have a right to.

I don’t agree with Elon Musk on many of his decisions but this one, he is right. He might have gone about it the wrong way, but he is right.

Foreign Affairs / Re: US Evacuates Diplomats & Their Families, Shuts Embassy In Khartoum by truthCoder: 8:37am On Apr 23, 2023
Zonefree:

While Nigerian government and Dabiri-Erewa are saying it's difficult to evacuate Nigerian students there cos they're burning aircrafts in airport undecided

Are they not burning aircraft?

Do you know how USA did it?

The typical US would have used possibly an AWACS to monitor the skies whilst F-35s are on patrol. They would know of every possible hostile activity from 200 miles from the embassy and neutralize it, all without entering Sudanese airspace.

If any human carry as small as an AK-47 to terrorize the embassy lasan, there are marines there who are ready to kill.

There would have been helicopters running trips from Ethiopia to Khartoum, moving people and documents.

The embassy staff are trained for this.

Now how do you intend for Nigeria to do it?

Riverpod beats Getx in performance. I don't know about the learning curve.

Can you share any metrics you have access to if any to enlighten us further?

In addition, whilst it is common to compare GetX with other state management tools, we should remember that GetX does more than state management.

It is a router, a dependency injection tool in addition to being a state manager.

So if you install say riverpod, you might need to still install go_router to manage your routes.

Programming / Flutter: The Irony Of GetX by truthCoder: 7:48am On Apr 21, 2023
Let's discuss the elephant in the room - GetX. Despite being the most popular Flutter package year after year, there is a growing sentiment among some senior developers on forums like Reddit and Discord that they hate the creator. Even Google has removed GetX from its list of favorite packages.

However, many beginners find the package simple to learn, and it allows them to manage state, dependencies, and routes with ease. While some argue that it's not scalable for large applications, there are many production apps built with it.

The hate for GetX has even reached the point where a recruiter on Reddit said he uses it as an interview weeding tool. One major complaint from these senior developers is that it is an anti-pattern, doing things completely differently from how Flutter does it. For example, it doesn't rely on "context" and uses its own types (Rx).

There is a phenomenon called the "woozle effect," where frequent citation of previous publications lacking evidence misleads individuals, groups, and the public into believing non-facts. Could the hate for GetX be a woozle effect? Despite the conflicting views, it's essential to know what real developers think about GetX, rather than just jumping on the bandwagon.

Thanks; You have made a good point, I think I will start using incognito.



Not because you access porn site often and you have experienced the activities, therefore means everyone has the time for porn sites.





The issue is on my PC not phone.

Look at the picture properly

You are the one infected with possible trojans and malwares yet you are the one ‘forming holy’ here. What is my own if you watch or don’t watch porn?

You were not explicit on the device with issues and you included your infinix screenshots.

There is no way a trojan or malware will enter any air-gapped device except the owner allows access. You allow access based on the sites you visit and the softwares you download.

One of the easiest ways to introduce rubbish into your system is when you visit malicious sites. Porn remains one of the highest sources of malicious codes, followed by free downloads.

98% of Nigerians are religious (according to the 2018 report on international religious freedom) yet we are corrupt, drink the highest volume of alcohol on the continent and our prisons are filled.

You are using Infinix.

That crap-phone comes with enough bloatware outta the box that it will make any data harvester jealous.

If you are concerned about your privacy, get a used iPhone if you cannot afford a new one.

If you want to stick to android, do your research and get a brand that doesn’t ship with bloatware (don’t mention xiaomi, tecno, oppo or itel).

Finally, don’t use your main browser to watch porn or download movies or visit suspicious sites. Have a separate browser that is not signed in to anything for that.

Your main browser has cookies and jwts from the main sites you visit (google, facebook, twitter etc). When you visit bad sites, they try to redirect you to automated links with the main goal of using these stored tokens.

Finally, download cloudflare wrap and enable permanently.

Programming / Re: Is SaaS Currently The Only Way To Finally Freedom by truthCoder: 2:05pm On Apr 14, 2023
Deicide:
I see so many people trying to start their own fintech Company and even if it's not fintech, something people would pay to use. Is this the only real way to finally freedom? And how feasible it is in current Nigeria economy?

Phase 1.
Try to build for the global audience.

Make your charges as low as possible. Free is the best. In case where you incur transaction costs, your pricing should be as close to your transaction costs as possible.

To achieve low charges, ensure your costs are as low as possible.

When you have at least 100k MAU, move to phase 2.

Phase 2.
Create a premium offering different from balablu bulaba and blublu.

Sell access to the premium offering for cheap. Just a little more than your free tier.

Put the premium offerings on trial for all free tier users to use for say 6 months.

For first premium customers, charge just one month cost for one year access. Promo ends in one year.

Try to grow your premium tier to 50k MAU in first year.

When you have achieved 50k, move to phase 3.

Phase 3
Create VIP tier.
Charge a way more for VIP.
Reduce as much free service on the free tier as possible and push them into premium tier.
Add more features into VIP tier and migrate all premium tier customers to free VIP for one year.
Grow both premium and VIP to 100k and 10k MAU respectively.

Final phase
Look for an Elon Musk to buy your service at an overpriced offer and pull out. Start all over.
