Programming / THE BUZZ OF IT RETRENCHMENT HITS HARD LAST YEAR TILL NOW. by romeo411(m): 5:15pm On Jun 27 |
Those of us training to enter the IT world were shocked last year by the news of job losses in the industry. Some were discouraged while some gave up. I was confused as my motivation dropped. I saw that the hype and energy that usually encourages one on this NL was not there as then! Does it mean it's real? |

I believe learning how to code can never go out of fashion, I think that good days for devs will soon be back. As for me learning to code, I'm foreseeing a time when non-coders and those without some other relevant software skills will be treated as if they don't have computer knowledge. 1 Like |

I don't know what you mean by focus but it basically mean you must find at least 2hrs maybe in five days in a week to practice a language patiently as days go by. Where more confidence comes in is how do people use this programming languages and how to solve problems. So you need to be on constant research, your question would never be answered in a day but you must continuously keep researching about them and asking them. then you will eventually get answers. cheers Ok, that's your perspective of it, thanks all the same. |

Programming / How Do I Stayed Focused To Actualize My Dream Of Becoming Software Developer. by romeo411(m): 4:12pm On May 12, 2022 |
For 2yrs now, I have seriously wanted to transition from my job as a Civil Engineer to a Software Developer. It had been a dream even before going to study civil engineering but you know the Nigerian University admission system can be funny and tricky at the same time. Fast forward, I finished the course which is not a bad field of study in any way over ten years ago but the attraction to IT keeps getting stronger because I follow events and know where things are really happening. I have been doing some video tutorials and is like I am virtually vast in the terms and terminologies in web dev. Now, my issue is that I lack focus on doing the main thing which is being persistent in coding! And it happened that I don't have an option but to learn it because I just got an admission to a QUANT course, (MSc in Computational Finance) or what the university of Petersbourg in the US that offered me the admission calls Financial Engineering because coding is like a prerequisite as in most of the program involves modern computer languages like python, javascript, etc. In fact, the course is about fintech. Please I need solid advice and mentoring that will put me to shape in a short possible time. My post may not be incongruent with some of our thoughts here but I need advice and encouragement like a rookie in the field that i am |

Family / Re: Older Nigerian Men How Did You Survive Nigeria In Your 20s by romeo411(m): 3:38pm On Dec 26, 2021 |
crackhaus:
No matter how you look at it, they had it so much better... Waayyy better. Nothing depressing about it.
Yes they lived through the military era and saw firsthand what that was like, but it was still a better deal than what we have now.
Nigeria/Nigerians didn't have such a bad rep in the eyes of the world back then.
And who told you there were no jobs?
Just having a university degree guaranteed you a job without the need for man-know-man or bribing your way into federal agencies. My dad with his University of Ibadan 2'2 degree didn't stay without work for up to 3 months after serving – got a really good job for that matter.
Nigerians could travel easier back then and even though the standard of living wasn't all that high, things were affordable in comparison. Today, the standard of living is low (even lower if we're being honest), yet commodities aren't that affordable.
The internet age, satellite TV, and advent of mobile devices which ushered in the era of remote jobs and internet-based sources of income, also came with the introduction of make-believe lifestyles from watching reality shows like MTV cribs, KUWTK, etc... Young Nigerians became obsessed with living wealthy lifestyles and acquiring expensive things (even when unnecessary).
Please there's no comparison to be made...
Older Nigerians definitely had a much better Nigeria than we do now. It wasn't heaven then, but it still wasn't as hellish as it is now. People actually lived in Nigeria back then, but what people are doing now is surviving – there's a big difference.
I can't even take my car to a random mechanic to fix for me because they will bill me like a yahoo boy. ![lipsrsealed](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/lipsrsealed.png) Internet fraudsters who don't mind paying whatever price they're told to pay for anything, have succeeded in contributing to inflation.
All those overpriced estates in places like Lekki built on top of reclaimed land that is just hoping/praying the sea doesn't develop mood swing, do you think if they were not seeing people to buy them, they won't drop the prices?
My brother, the overall mentality of Nigerians is very different now from what it was then.
Although it's not that the country was European-standard for older Nigerians back in the day, but contentment seemed to be more prevalent as people were okay with just having the basics/having just what was necessary.
I have a lot more I could type on this topic, but I've exceeded my social media allocated time for today. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) Thank you dear, wonder where this kids are coming from to make such assertion. How can you compare the Nigeria of now and then? The faired better. We think internet is everything, those eighties and early nineties, people still communicate well through those media available. |
