Sports / Re: Argentina National Team Under Fire For Singing Racist Songs After Their Win by Whynow(m): 9:36am On Jul 17
Brazil is very different and better. They are more integrated than Argentina.


ekitimanalways:

There are still black Argentines. Today there are 302,936 black Argentines.

The extermination of the black people in Argentina, an inaccurate reason... If that was the case, the black population in Brazil would also disappear, given their (the black community) miserable situation in Brazil. So basically what defined the mostly white population in Argentina was the economy during the colonial era.

A country that systematically purged the black slaves after the abolishment of slave trade. They prevented cross breeding and eliminated pregnancies.
Have you ever seen a black Argentine ? Or know of any that represents Argentina ?

You can find the documentary on YouTube

Wasn't really a declination, but like prelim stage interview

Had a video call interview once. The recruiter appeared to be talking to someone as he kept turning to look back.
I even had to pause, because I kept loosing my trail of thoughts.

After the interview, I enquired about the company values, as they weren't stated on the website. Then he began, highlighting them and mentioned respect as one of them.
I got him there! I told him right away, "You obviously didn't display that."

He started blabbing , no he was this that... I schooled him on core values

I think he realised that this guy clearly had values (2005 grad, worked for many multinationals, currently MD/CEO of a company).
................and I am of the opinion that he tried to save himself from embarrassment, and that was why I didn't hear from the company. I really schooled him !

Looked him up on LinkedIn, and saw he studied chemical engineering (2017 grad) and was doing recruiting.


Clearly not a company I would love to work for.

Funny, its a very popular company covering Nigeria, Kenya and Egypt

Car Talk / Re: 2012 Honda Accord Auto Folding Mirror Issues by Whynow(m): 4:59am On Jan 29, 2023
Yes mine has this options except backup cam, which i will install.

They look the same from the outside except some minor body details. The main difference is usually in their interiors. Asian accords usually have more ‘options’ than the USA versions like heated steering wheels, rear ac vents, folding side mirrors, automatic rear view window curtains etc plus or minus a few according to their trims.
Car Talk / 2012 Honda Accord Auto Folding Mirror Issues by Whynow(m): 2:36am On Jan 27, 2023
My 2012 Honda Accord Folding Mirror is not working, and I do not want to give it to just anyone to fix. I require the services of a professional.

The driver side does not work, but the passenger side folds in when I insert the key into the ignition, which is the reverse case.

The correct operation should be ; to unfold when the car is unlocked or the key is inserted into the ignition, and fold when the car is locked or the key is removed from the ignition.

I'm pretty sure it's a module or wiring issue.
Please contact me if you can help. Gbagada, Lagos is the location.

jesmond3945:
no the tribalists don't want him.

I rarely post or comment, but I am with you..
The fact that its a faceless forum give some people the priviledge to comment the way they do.
I have been observing this trend for a long time I have come to some conclusions.

1. Tribal hate brews on this forum.
2. People post comments as it comes to their mind, without subjecting to thought process or to apply some cognitive thinking.
3. They are mostly age bracket below 30 or below 35. (not saying all within this range are like that)

I have done some little work by scrapping data from this Nairaland forum and subjected it to analysis with scikit learn sentiment analysis, classification e.t.c

My brother I want to tell you it teriible, and this are young peoplw whom should be seeing reasons to accept the truth, so that we all have some level of accountability in government.

Programming / Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Whynow(m): 11:39am On Jun 12, 2022
Hmm, would be difficult. Just try to download the csv or tar.gz files and import to your database. I use PgAdmin.

Now what you seek to achieve , I can achieve with Kaggle api (import opendatasets as od ) to download datasets and to explore with Pandas on Jupyter notebook

Omotaday:
Good morning Big bros. I have been following the Coursera course and I notice they use public dataset on google icloud & Bigquery for practice. Previously, I learnt SQL basics using PostgreSQL and want to be consistent with it. Is there any way I can download the public datasets on google icloud/Bigquery to upload on Postgress for practice? I have searched google, found no helpful tips yet.
Programming / Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Whynow(m): 11:34am On Jun 12, 2022
are you sure you are in the right folder directory?
Or better still try replacing 'train.csv" with whatever path you have , e,g for windows "c:\windows\username\ xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\ train.csv"

jackcanfield:

import pandas as pd
e = pd.read_csv( "train.csv" )
print(e)


make sure you install openpyxl and pandas correctly.
Programming / Re: Chronicle Of A Data Scientist/analyst by Whynow(m): 11:29am On Jun 12, 2022
This is why I prefer Jupyter notebook. You wouldn't need to use print statement

Cardiac arrest is a slient killer.
Maybe, maybe the team's inability to qualify for the mundial aggrevated it, especially when you are an avid or passionate supporter of a football team.

Good morning people,hope you had a nice val...
(my friend) has been having a strange occurence intermittently for about two years now, when he wakes up in the morning he finds there is blood stains on the floor at equal distance from each other ....about a foot apart in a straight line and sometimes it will be bent ... but always starts at a point and ends somewhere further down with a good number of grops .. I have seen it happen several times and they always wake up to discover it.


Does anyone have a clue what might be the meaning behind this ?

TV/Movies / Re: I Just Bought A New Lg Tv 32inches And The Picture Quality Is Not Hd! by Whynow(m): 10:14am On Jan 27, 2022
Bros you fit don buy fake. If you don't buy from Faouni group, you are on your own.

I recently changed my 42inch LG to 65inch UHD WebOS with magic remote. I was constrained with budget, so l checked prices on Jiji. The prices were cheaper than what Faouni quoted. Too good to be true!!!!!

I did further research on Reddit, and Google search with key phrases like " how to spot fake LG products". . My thoughts were validated.

All my appliances are LG, and always buy from rom Faouni.
Thank God I didn't go the other way. Life is Good.

I don't work for LG, neither have any affiliations with Faouni. Just save yourself wahala and buy from the main accredited reseller.


Dollywood:
I just bought this new LG 32 inches brand new and I realised when I connected my PS4 Hdmi to it and started playing games on it, the picture quality was wack, feels like a lot of contrast and doesn't give me that crystal clear high definition I normally see on other people's TV. I bought the TV 70K. embarassed

Please someone should help me out!

Coursera has alignments with some schools and even big organisations , and their certifications are also valued. Course contents are well organised

Codecademy , I haven't used .

I have used Udemy (python and SQL) , datacamp ( for refresher) .. Very much okay.

Hmm he should go and watch the YouTube documentary on life and times of Elvis Presley. Burn out as a result of many concerts, traveling , fatigue, lack of sleep and use of enhancement drugs to boost energy.
It can prove costly.
