I'm interested

Zenith Bank did this same to me one time....it is a tier one account. You might have given your BVN details one time. But there's no cause for alarm anyway. Just go to the bank to activate it or upgrade it if you want to use it.

Don't want to use, will deactivate it... still can't believe someone can create a bank account for some else.

Error of commission or omission in phone number, no scam

From the person that created the acct?

But for someone to create an account bearing my name, with my phone number and probably BVN, I find it hard to call that an error.

ahnie:

Like seriously?

I just received 2 text messages about the creation of a new GTbank account which I never applied for? Anyone have a similar experience or knowledge of what might be going on?

See texts:
========
1. Dear my_name, your Account number is 07733xxxxx. To fund your account, visit any GTBank branch nearest to you. Thank you for banking with us.

2. Dear Customer, a Savings Acct: 07733xxxxx has been opened for you. Pls pay into this account to activate it, N1000 + VAT applies for your new DEBIT card.

Has anyone here been enrolled for the outsource global software academy Abuja? I want to how genuine the program is.
Basically, they train you for six months and you will work with them for six months with a little monthly compensation and if you decide to leave before the duration of the training you will have to pay them.
I want to know what I am about entering into before signing the agreement form and I want to read other people experiences with them. Is it worth ?

Hello @op, do you mind sharing the value of the monthly compensation?

I love the Quoran's effort in trying to paper over the crack but haven led a good number of Digital forensics investigations as a Cybersecurity expert, I can boldly say "Nigeria is the scam capital of the World"... There is no large-scale scam syndicate in the world that won't have a single Nigerian at the top tier of their structure.....

I was opportune to work on the Kinahan group case and as small as Ireland is both in terms of size and population, the group have a huge flow of cash transactions made possible by over 100 Nigerians working with them either as foot soldiers or signal module managers...The largest representation is from the over 1000 people that were indicted. They are quite smart that it took a combination of resources from Ireland, the UK, the US and Switzerland to get to the root of their deals

In all fairness, we represent the biggest and largest scammers colony per capita in the world and that's not anecdotal experience it is statistically correct

You may feel bad reading this but " fact don't care about how you feel".... It is what it is!!!

Can you share any resource to back this up. Will like to have it.

Wow, how time flies... Hello reader from the future. 

First and foremost, I am pleased to announce that I have successfully completed my ALX-T/Udacity Data Analysis Nanodegree program. It was a fantastic experience. The question now is, "What next?" 

For me, the learning continues. While I position myself for a new job, I want to use this time to relive and consolidate all I have learnt from the Udacity data analysis program. I will take each of the major aspects of data analysis one at a time and complete a project focused on each. 

What is the data analysis process?
 Simply put, these are a set of systematic steps needed to achieve an organized, reliable, and professional analysis of a data set. These include:
i. Question
ii. Wrangle
iii. Explore
iv. Draw Conclusions
v. Communicate

Every data analysis begins with a question. It could be the influence of one variable over another, the impact of a variable on an event, etc. Before beginning any data analysis project, the analyst must have a set of pre-defined questions that will guide the course of his data analysis. 

With the questions taken care of, the next thing is to wrangle the data. Data wrangling is one of the major responsibilities of a data analyst. It involves gathering, assessing, and cleaning the data set for reliable and accurate analysis. As a fact, it is the most important because if it is not done or done erroneously, then the reliability, accuracy, and integrity of the analysis will be void.

Next is exploratory analysis. This is where the analyst goes further to poke the data set to check for trends and patterns that would either confirm his suspicions or dismiss them. Also, during this process, he is able to discover new insights that may change the course of the analysis. One major component of this part of the analysis process is the use of visualizations, which, if utilized properly, can help simplify the analysis process and may even reveal elusive data quality issues that escaped the data wrangling step.

Drawing conclusions and communicating your insights is another very important aspect of a data analyst's responsibility. The right visualization must be used; the medium of communication, the insights, and noting limitations are all important factors that make up an effective analysis report/presentation.

Meaning if my real age is 40, i can claim 25 just because my heart feels so. Then i can date someone younger. Is that it?

You can be any age but the goal is for adults (peodophiles) to have the legal backing to satisfy their perversions. You don't have to reduce your age.

Ex. A man of 50 can have intimate relationship with a 9 year old girl and claim that while he is 50 (or even older) he feels like a 9 year old.

justicechichex:


Trans-age ke?? What is that?

Just like trans-gender. They are adults who claim they are younger at heart and should be allowed to have intimate relationship with children.

Was watching 'sex education' series. And for the 1st time, i had something called 'binary'. They're not referred as he, she, him, her.


Like wtf is that? Are this people okay?

I think you mean 'non-binary'...things have gone way worse. Ever heard of 'trans-age'.

Hilarious advise! You quoted his email for posterity and want him to take it down?

Fixed, thanks. I hardly quote people/comment on Nairaland, so didn't realize it when I made the post plus I was in a hurry.

Mcstaid:
Sir please can u share with me some of alx materials.. I applied on the last cohort application phase and I was not selected, but hopefully with preparation and dedication I will try to apply in the next cohort.. But I need to prepare for it...
Here is my email
Anticipating your response sir..
Thanks

Sent. You should take down your email address for your online safety/privacy

Mcstaid:
Thanks for the response, the webinar videos will be a great deal sir, especially for motivation and focus towards achieving the desired result...

Will send the link before the end of the week

I had to go to the office to make my pitch video (the first time) and submit it to ALX-T as part of the requirement for a survey form for The Room.
One unique thing about this scholarship program by ALX-T is that they are as concerned about equipping you with the skill as they are concerned with building your career as a professional. There are connect sessions every week (mandatory), where you interact with a tenured professional in your chosen track, you are assigned a career coach that schedules meeting with you every week and many more. On top of that, you are invited to join an exclusive community of professionals called The Room once you successfully graduate from the program. There you get to network and get recommended for available jobs that match your skill set.

After my pitch video, I continued with project 3 - Communicate Findings via Visualizations. This project is for the data visualization stage of data analysis. Here rather than just use code, you use plots to visually inspect, observe, and investigate trends and patterns in your data set.

I am using the Prosper Loan data set for this project provided by Udacity. Today, I stumbled on a term I wasn't very clear about - Skewness. You will most likely encounter this when you plot a histogram. There are basically two types - Right/Positive or Left/Negative skew.

Right/Positive Skew: Here you have a histogram with bars from the middle towards the right decreasing or reducing in height relative to the bars on the left. The Mode < Median < Mean.

Left/Negative Skew: The converse of right-skew. Mean < Median < Mode.

Now, if you are like me and prefer to learn in layman's terms, to understand how to interpret a histogram plot with respect to skewness let's take the distribution of a test trial on a new covid-19 vaccine. If the plot of this vaccine effectiveness is plotted as success on test subjects with respect to time and we have a rightly-skewed plot, this implies that the vaccine is effective at the initial stage but tends to lose its efficacy as time goes on there by questioning its reliability. If left-skewed, then it's likely that the vaccine has a slow-acting efficacy as it tends to fail at its initial stage but improve potentially as time goes on or by continued use.

Hello Isaac,

The program is very rich in content and hosted on a cloud server i.e aside from copying and downloading the videos one after the other externally, the only way to access the content is via the classroom. I can send some of the webinar videos for career growth and management but as for the technical videos I haven't downloaded the whole thing as I am yet to complete the program.

Hopefully, if it's not against their policy, I will send you the YouTube link to download all the videos after I complete the program.

How time fly...last update was in March and today is 27th July.

So what happened?
After my last update I continued with Excel using the excelisfun YouTube series. Covered 90% of the basics video playlist. While consolidating with datacamp assessment as my subscription got expired.

April 2022
Applied for the Microsoft/Udacity and ALX-T/UDACITY Data Analysis 2022 nanodegree scholarship.

Began building my online profiles: LinkedIn, GitHub, and my website/FB page (all still in progress).

Took a break to re-assess myself and my progress so far. Then I realized something. While I was learning the skills needed for data analysis, I was yet to truly understand the process of data analysis.

I believe this is one obvious thing that many resources for data analysis fail to take into account and address, especially at the start of their course/lessons.

May 2022
Got selected for the ALX-T/Udacity data analysis scholarship 2022.

Continued building my brand (website/FB page).

Resumed Excel and started looking for a suitable SQL Variant to learn and build on (all ready familiar with SQLite)

Began taking python course by Ardit sluce to refine some all ready rough edges (was all ready an intermediate) and I know I will need it as a data analyst.

June 2022

Started ALX-T/Udacity data analysis program and I must say it was a prayer answered. The first course thoroughly answered the question - What is the data analysis process?
And from then on it has been a smooth sailing.

Got a remote job as a research assistant which fortunately involves data analysis (win-win)

There's a lot to post especially my projects and concepts/codes I have learnt just by going through this program, but I thought it necessary to close the "gap" before I proceed.


July 2022

About to round up my last technical project for the program (program ends 10th of next month).


With that out of the way, let's time to give back

Bentizil:

Okay..
Pls can I get the G11 here in Nigeria.

From Nigeria I buy only from Jumia but they don't have it ATM. But they have other Gseries (G10, G21...)

No problem

JohnnyBling:
Hi guys, been following up with this thread and finally I've gotten over the spirit of procrastination and ready to start my journey into the world of Data analytics. I'm lame when it comes to laptop operating and I want to know how to to start. Any idea would be helpful and personal I'll continue reading up on this thread and making extensive research as well

Try datacamp.com for a start. To get a feel of what data analysis is like

JohnnyBling:
Please guys where can I get free pdf on sql

Same issue my brother is complaining about. What can be done to move pass this stage please?

After filing the necessary fields ensure to click the "save ..." button by the bottom left of the page. After this the proceed button to the next stage will appear and turn green

DHaran:
Please I need help I am a novice in python

I have installed python and anaconda prompt

But I am trying to install all the library using conda but I think I am not getting it right

This is the result when I tried to install panda.

What does it mean?? What am I required to do??

It's pandas not panda. Try again let's see.

Ensure you have an active internet connection.

When I say not all women, this is one example

The truth is bitter
