Nah, your phone also generate radiation and you are always with your phone 24/7 most especially when you are using those high radiated phones like Tecno and infinix product

I saw a former neighbor who packed few months ago. He said the main reason why he packed is because of a newly built network mast close to our building. He said living close to a network mast can give you cancer.

Is this true?
Radiations are high

It's risky to have masts close to a residential building because of radiation frequency and radioactivity around the area.

There are elements that have been found to be carcinogens like benzene and some others. Even particles and dust that fly around that people inhale can cause cancer or mutations. It's like everything around you is trying to kill you, such is life.

There is a reason they always give free electricity to d person d mast is close to him house, in d past they would even pay u like 15k monthly to look after the thing, as in, provide access to the people fueling & calling thier technicians Incase fault etcs.

I don't think the level of radiation in phone can be equal to a mast or uv xray scanner

I do know constant exposure to this high tech can do damage overtime

Never,
The radiations from mast are non ionising.
The frequency cannot cause cancer

Very right sir..every wave Ray's have effect on humans ..be it gamma Ray's beta Ray's alpha Ray's which labs use during test scans.its not too advisable to stay in these direct Ray's for long...just like these mask emits large volume of electromagnetic waves and harmful Ray's...its not too advisable to stay within these Ray's for too long.after 4 years u can park funny enough these things are not visible to the eyes just like bacteria.. as far as the sun is from planet earth the Ray's it emits can cause skin cancer but e nor they affect blacks mostly whites anyways as we have a stronger skin layers.i am surprised we dont have sound physics students here..good move by ur neigbour life na one.in severe cases it can damage your organs over time

Likely true but not proven by scientist.
I recall that they give those workers that climb mast to fix network issue
One carton of peak milk monthly
Funny enough some will collect the milk and sell it instead if drinking it.

Is this true?

No.

Radiation from telecommunication masts are NON IONIZING.

It radiation from radioactive materials, like Radium, Cobalt 60, etc, that are ionizing.

This information is coming from someone with a Masters Degree in Radiation Protection and Physics.

What is superstition? Anything the whites didn't approve right? Have you made your research on why you are sure those things are not really harmful?

True UV rays emitted from such a mast can cause damage to the human brain through the ears that's one of the reasons they put them very high above the ground....but that one is way too low considering the amount of decibels it would be releasing everyday that's basically a slow and steady poison....watch out for neighbors who may start bleeding from the ears and nose cool

University knowledge is largely irrelevant to actual production coding, especially for business applications. Algorithms you learn in school are largely already coded better in existing libraries and are going to work well enough, and better than most implementations a guy out of school could code (since whoever coded the library has run into all the gotchas, performance bottlenecks, etc.). It is only in rare cases and levels of scale beyond most programs are going to encounter that there is a real requirement to improve on the existing implementations.
Programming is much more than knowing a coding language. The real skill comes from understanding problems, having experience with different types of solutions and knowing the best to apply, and techniques for experimentation.
And also very important is a general ability to do your own research and learn new things, because programming is a constantly changing environment - so I think that many successful programmers are exactly the kind of people that can learn without the structured university environment, which is why they could learn on their own, and how they continue to keep up to date and continually learn more. The constant learning is crucial to good programming, and many people who only went through university courses never had to demonstrate that ability.
Programming is also very well suited to individual learning, as once you have the computer experimentation uses up very little resource other than time (and a bit of electricity). But you can build and rebuild, experiment with one technique, then another - and not have to buy more materials, or tear anything down. So a self-learner can try lots of different ideas until they find what works best. And then a week later realize the problems that approach causes elsewhere, and try something else new to deal with those problems. Again, this type of experimentation is what makes great programmers great, and the same skill set allows them to learn independently.
I’ve worked with and hired programmers with and without university degrees, and had more success with the self-taught guys. The stuff the university guys knew from an academic computer-science aspect were pretty useless to building business facing applications.

No IT Company ask for your BSc. in Computer science certificate just as a movie producer wont ask if you studied Performing arts before giving you role in acting.. I would rather encourage people to study programming as a skill and study other courses as a profession.
As it is currently, IT companies both home and abroad hires you base on what you can do and have done in the IT world irrespective of your discipline in the university.
Book for a programming class with your personal tutor at your Home, Convenience, Pace etc. being a beginner or dummy....
Requirement: Your Commitment, Laptop, fair internet and the Zoom App.

Nice one...check my signature friends

We're surrounded by electromagnetic radiation all the time - from television and radio signals, as well as from a whole range of technologies, including mobile phones, and from natural sources such as sunlight...

So you can run
Life is a circle and loop
You will still find you way around this technologies...
