Demichaels:
In LOVE'S radiant embrace, our souls entwine,
Yearning for the sanctuary of an IDEAL Home divine.
Like the PETALS of a graceful autumn bloom,
We flourish, entwined in affection's sweet perfume.
Pledged to each other ere our fateful meet,
No bond can rival the love we replete.
We are REKELS, crafting dreams in PETALS' HOME,
Creating a haven where love finds its grace. SEALED By the TRINITY

There's nothing like juju or voodoo. All are figments of imagination which lends themselves to superstitious beliefs.
If you believe in them, then give concrete evidence of their existence.

Properties / Re: What Is The Idea Behind These High Roofs? (Photo) by Xpol: 8:15pm On Jan 23
The only practical advantage I see in this roofing
design is its resistance to wind.

Contrary to what some are saying, this is not a new design it's just modification to the existing "old skool" design.

There's one such building in our street (family house), back then wind can tamper with almost all the roofs of the houses in the street but this particular house wouldn''t be affected. That's why people are now going back to the design and adding modifications.
Family / Re: Am I Being Paranoid? Please Help Me by Xpol: 7:39pm On Jan 20
BlackfyreRebell:
Please advice me
My ex husband and I are divorced 2 years ago. He recently acquired an European citizenship, he also wants to extend the citizenship to our son. Though I thought it a good idea but I can't shake the feeling that he is trying to use that to take him away from me.
He told me our son will need to come over there to finish the process of his citizenship. But when I went to submit the "application" what I saw on it is different from what he told me. The paper read that I am consenting to my son to go and reunite with his father. Or is that the way they process it?
Please those that have gone through same should please come to my aid, this is my only child and I can't afford to lose my child this way.
please don't block the way of that innocent boy.

Nobody is taking him from you. I'm very sure there'll still be communication btw you . Children hardly forget their mother even if the man doesn't want him to communicate with you, when he keeps disturbing the father he will let him have his way most especially when you're a good mother.

Some doctors said she won't be able to infect him if she is taking her medication regularly.

A good nairalander can help us verify this by engaging in sex with a hiv individual that takes their drug regularly

That Sprayer was exclusively for Spraying the Beans for Insects and not for Killing grasses
spraying late in the morning follow by hot weather can also burn the plants especially with high dosage, Anything apart from these simply mean the chemical is fake coz most pesticides can be used for wide varieties of plants without any side effect.

I wonder why some people support corruption and stealing. Was he also following instructions in the two banks he allegedly bought in corrupt ways? The billions allegedly stolen too was acting under someone else instruction?

When there's no prosecution people will be shouting no prosecution for stealing and corruption and when there's prosecution they'll be shouting witch-hunting or attaching tribalism to it.

Funny enough, nobody relied or expected anything from her.
She might have realized she loses opportunities whenever she shares her intention with people. Sometimes it's good to finish your project before sharing it with people who won't have direct impact on it.

I hope you understand what I'm saying. If she sees you as someone whose input will really be helpful in the project she would let you know.

People like her don't trust easily and that's a good thing.

Sometimes it's good not to be easily predictable.

Politics / Re: I’m Dying Of Cancer, Allow Me To Return To Nigeria – Diezani Begs Tinubu by Xpol: 11:13am On Dec 23, 2023
seunmsg:


Did I read the part in bold correctly or my eyes are paining me? As in $9 billion or N9billion?

How did she get as much as $9 billion? How did we move from this level of mind boggling corruption under Diezani to the current revelations about Emefiele? Why do we keep throwing up extremely greedy characters like these as leaders?

If she’s willing to cooperate for the recovery of the $9 billion, I think President Tinubu should allow her come back. That kind of money can help us stabilize the exchange rate immediately.
The main problem will be how to retrieve back the money from the Gov. Such dealing may just be based on trust without any documentation.

The Guyman gov would have diverted the money for personal use and he may blatantly deny the allegation.

Immunity won't also help in prosecuting him.

Is this the same Nigeria we keep hoping it's going to be better? Well nothing wrong with being optimistic. It helps regulating the BP.

No big deal in this. You can be my closest friend but I may be planning of buying a private jet tomorrow and you won't even know about it.

The first time I travelled out of the country only my mum and few of my siblings knew about it.

My closest friend then was surprised when I called him with a foreign number.

OP it May be painful but he may not have any bad mind towards you. If it's me though you won't be surprised coz you would have already known me for that.

You have to know yourself and what works for you. I discovered if I want to do some things and share it and the person express a negative view about it, I do find it very difficult in most cases to achieve it.

Everyone around me already knows me for that.
If you're predictable and everyone knows your moves you'll be an easy catch in this life.

Let me just reveal the secret. You're only seeing him as your best friend but to him he doesn't have best friend. That's who I am too I don't have best friend but I show love to everyone. If you notice him he hardly shares secret with you. Only normal discussion that's not personal.

Life is deeper than what we're seeing...

Programming / Re: What Can A CS Degree Holder Program that a self-taught cannot do? by Xpol: 7:21pm On Dec 21, 2023
airsaylongcome:


You seem to assume that a degree in Computing aims to dlmale someone a programmer. Which is very far from the truth. It's like expecting an MBBS grad to be a surgeon. Programming is a sub-specialty in CS
I know this very well and that's why sometimes I do use any role.

No role or area the degree fully prepare you for. Same with the other person trying to hype his/her SE degree. as it is with other disciplines a programmer is one of so many of what you can become. The degree only gives you basic knowledge you have to build on else it won't be useful coz it doesn't fully prepare you neither does it give you what you need to enter the job market. So why are people hyping it as if it's the alpha and Omega. It only an advantage because of the basic knowledge of computer which other related courses also give.

So I'm not going to dive in too deep countering your points. But know this, that NO MEDICAL student that graduates in Nigeria, is ready to become a Doctor. They have to do house job aka internship before they can even get a license to practice.
yes you're right on housemanship, which is supposed to be done under close monitoring by senior doctors but that's not always the case, they're mostly left on their own. I worked in a general hospital for almost a year not as medical staff though, those senior doctors hardly have time for supervision so I can tell you they're performing full medical duties during that one year except surgery.

At first it's only evaluation, they'll go round asking the patients questions and keep records but before you know it they start giving injection and even prescription.

How fast they begin the full functions depends on individual knowledge which is not always the same with individuals but same is not applicable to a SC graduate those intro to programming, OS, kernel, DSA, OS programming, etc we're being taught are different from what we meet in the field.

Some of those lecturers don't even know what they are teaching.

Notwithstanding, as a CS graduate, learning programming may be easier easier than someone from unrelated discipline.I remember I found "Sequel" very easy to learn then after dealing with it on two different courses.same thing applicable to some other areas.

In Ondo state during election petition tribunal between Mimiko and Agagu, a lecturer who's a professor of computer science was one of Agagu's witness. When prosecution counsel was cross examining baba he couldn't operate a computer at first they taught it was impersonation.

Most of these lecturers cannot turn their code into program not to talk of their students.

Some cannot even right anything unless they are reading already prepared one.

If you're a CS graduate you'll agree with most if not all what I've said.

Many SC graduates do come to the programming section seeking advice from where to start from, what language to learn etc. I remember a guy that said he studied in maybe Hong Kong I can't remember the exact place in Asia he said his school was one of the best in that country😂

I doubt that the people telling him how and where to start even have a diploma in CS.

A degree in CS,SE,CE,IT won't give you fluency in any programming language if you don't 'self learn", most especially in Nigeria. even the lecturer taking you C++ may not be fluent in it.

Let me rest my long epistle here. Peace.

What computer science degree are we talking about here? A university Bachelors degree from a proper university? With introduction to programming 1, 2 and Data Structures? Or are we talking some other program?

And medical degrees are practical based? Anatomy alone is a made course in theory. And at what year do medical students start getting clinical experience?
in every sense of it you can't compare a degree in medicine with CS.

When you graduate as a medical doctor you're job ready and all what you need to be a qualified medical doctor have been acquired though you gain more experience as you practice.

In the anatomy you're talking about you are still given the opportunity to practice the theory in the clinic.

After graduation you can easily pass any job interview and be employed.

As a graduate of computer science (solely based on what you're taught in the school) try and apply for any role in in all these numerous adverts on indeed, LinkedIn, etc.

After your first three interviews nobody will advise you before you'll be typing" how to learn web development", what is the easiest language to learn" in Google search. lol

When you get to 400l level all those introduction to programming, to Java,to pasca etc that you've learn in 100-200l are already gone. Intro to operating system, kernel and the rest you won't even remember most of them coz you're loaded with more loads and you're also struggling with project and how to graduate.

During exam you're more concerned about how to pass each course.whether cramming or any means.... Just to pass.

After preparing for your 400l exam if the lecturer decide to set the questions from 200l many students will fail so tell me how what you learn in the uni will land you let say a developer role after graduation.you can't even pass the rigorous interview.

A CS degree is only an advantage but not what you need to enter the IT world. you won't be able to code in most of the languages you'll be thought.

Lol is it these languages you can't even master in a year that you want to learn in a semester or two semesters?

When you try to clear people on this issue some will say you're pained bcoz you didn't go to school. I studied Information Technology and only 4 core courses were not common to both departments during our time.

I'm not try to say a SC degree is useless but not enough as you guys are painting it to look like it's the alpha and Omega in the IT world.

If you don't learn and master a skill a SC degree may become useless or maybe you can be employed in cyber Cafe.

Again that introduction to programming 1,2,3 you're talking about is there open and free online, plus data structures.

Wait which data structures are you even bragging of. Is it the same one you're taught and can't even pass a DSA interview?

If you're a programmer and also have a SC degree. Answer this question with honesty:

How did you learn programming?
