Phones / Help! Original Earpiece Around 1k by srrrr(m): 9:48pm On Aug 09, 2019 |
I've bought different brands of earpiece but they don't last. It's either one ear stops working after one or two weeks, then the other ear follows. I usually go for those ones around 1k because I feel they last longer and they have better sound quality compared to the cheaper ones.
The latest brand I'm currently using is Samsung J5. The first one I bought lasted 5 months, 2nd 3 months, 3rd around 3 to 4 months. Since then I've bought 3 more J5, but they all lasted 1 to 2 weeks.
Please if you know any brand that can last 3 months above (both ears) and it's around 1k please share. I can't spend more than 1k on earpiece. |

You want my sincere opinion? Please go for Medicine instead.
Still remains one profession in health that you are almost certain you will get a job even in your 40s. It is so worth it. Then again, you get to do all the counselling and rapport with patients.
Truth be told, most Pharmacists in Nigeria just dispense drugs like Technicians. There is barely any difference between them and the road side Chemists. Most of them end up as marketers/reps for Pharmaceutical companies. Is that what you would want to struggle so hard to achieve? I don't see any job satisfaction in that.
You want to earn some respect, be employable at 40years and have a professional rapport with patients? Again, I say go for Medicine.
Goodluck. studying pharmacy and furthering as a medical doctor abroad how's that? |

Education / Re: Man Says Acrobat Isn't Magic But Concentration by srrrr(m): 11:26am On Feb 02, 2019 |
YossyInfo: Meet Ambrose Albashino, an Irobo man from Delta State. He is a DJ and an Acrobat, who lifts heavy things like ladder, block etc with his mouth or teeth, dancing at the same time to entertain people.
Yossy met him at Freedom Park, Lagos Island, Nigeria.
He said, people think it's magic but it is all about concentration. He explained that, anything he can lift up above his shoulder, it is very easy for him to hold and balance it with his mouth without holding it with his hands.
When Ambrose was 8-year-old, he was defeated by some Acrobats at a dance competition in Ghana, he had to go for the training to prepare for another competition.
You can always meet Ambrose every weekend at Freedom Park, Lagos Island. you meant Urhobo. |

Programming / Re: Why Shouldn't You Learn Python? by srrrr(m): 1:25pm On Nov 01, 2018 |
Paapii3d: ok. I think the best way to start is by taking the free course on coursera by Andrew Ng. That was what got me going..
This is how I started.. Yes, we need the math, but when I came to India, my math skill was poor due to our math standard in Nigeria..I decided to take a private math tutor but the guy was damn expensive, i started doin a couple of research until I came across Andrew's course on Coursera and I started with it.. He started the basics of machine learning, talked abt Supervised, unsupervised and Reinforcement Learning, then started supervised learning and gave some math stuff. At the point, I paused, Looked for math materials related to what he said, studied it, understood it and then went back to the video.. I was also making notes, as well as writing things he used often like neural network, Sigmoid function and other stuff.. then i tried to understand these stuff..
So my suggestion is start the course and when you encounter math issues, do like I did..
Luckily in my final yr, we had a machine learning course and we used the textbook "Machine Learning by Tom Mitchel" it is a good book, u can try it out.. Search for PDF online. then you can also go for "Deep Learning by Ian GoodFellow" Pdf also available online. Though thats some more advanced stuff. These 2 books would help u.. The deep learning textbook started with some mathematical basics section. You could check it out...
You can also look up Tom Mitchel's course playlist on youtube..
If there's any question, you can ask..
I'm also looking to come back home soon to take tutorials and seminars as well as provide some of these materials...
All the best Thanks. I learnt a lot today 1 Like |

Any good java book now should cover at least java SE 8 or 9, that's why I need the 11th Edition badly. I prefer dietel to other books because of the problems you have to solve after every topic.

Programming / Re: Why Shouldn't You Learn Python? by srrrr(m): 11:43am On Nov 01, 2018 |
Paapii3d:
Yea....
For mathematics, you need Linear Algebra which consists of topics like Vectors and Matrix, basic equations and graphs, then you also need calculus knowledge like derivations, partial derivations, Integration, cost function to mention a few.
You need to know Statistics: Inferential and descriptive statistics.. Binomial, poisson, etc
Then you should know python more especially data structures and algorithms like stack, queue, heaps, trees etc
I'll try to make a comprehensive list. I'm writing this off my head..
but it still depends on if u wanna know fully abt ML/ DL concepts or u jst wanna know the much u can use in making projects
If the second is the case, the u can go into learning jst the frameworks which i listed in my previous post.
I saw this on quora MATHEMATICS USED IN MACHINE LEARNING (current topics submitted by the machine learning community) *Linear Algebra Vector spaces Linear transformations Subspaces Matrix theory Eigenvalues and eigenvectors Inner-product spaces Solution of linear systems *Calculus Limits and infinitesimals Differential calculus Leibniz notation Integral calculus Fundamental theorem Non-standard calculus Smooth infinitesimal analysis Constructive analysis *Probability Probability distributions Random walk Sample space Probability density function Cumulative distribution function Independent events Mutual exclusivity Conditional probability Joint probability Inverse probability Determinism Indeterminism Probability theory Law of large numbers Central limit theorem *Optimization Arg max Linear programming Quadratic programming Linear-fractional programming Combinatorial optimization *Heuristics Memetic algorithm Differential evolution Evolutionary algorithms Dynamic relaxation Genetic algorithms Hill climbing Nelder-Mead simplicial heuristic Particle swarm optimization Artificial bee colony optimization Simulated annealing Stochastic tunneling Tabu search Reactive Search Optimization *Iterative methods Newton's method Sequential quadratic programming Interior point method Coordinate descent Gradient descent Conjugate gradient method Subgradient methods Ellipsoid methods Reduced gradient method (Frank–Wolfe) Quasi-Newton methods Simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation Interpolation Pattern Search Yeah I want to go deep.

Paapii3d: I think I have a couple of things to say here, I love python, and I use python, as well as i use other languages. But the reason why I use python as my primary language isn't because of its simplicity.- though that is a plus - but it is because of its vast nature. I've used Java on a couple of projects on the android studio, I've used Javascript for react and react-native projects, ionic project, angular and other JS frameworks I've used swift for some ios projects here in India as well.. but believe me, If u want to stand out in present day tech, you need to be a python expert.
Understand the basics, then learn data structure and algorithms in Python, understand most importantly pseudocodes, and then begin to use frameworks like Django which i personally prefer to Flask for web development.
Learn frameworks like Numpy, Scikitlearn, pandas, tensorflow, opencv, matplotlib for data science and machine learning which is the sexiest job of this century.
With your knowledge on python, u can excel in any field of study. even in agriculture.. This is the best time to learn python.
I am nt against any other language because I still use them for a couple of projects.. but for a beginner, i prefer you learn Python.
Here in India, in my school, Python is nw taught to Ist yr students which wasn't so when i started..

Well I think the only thing most programmers have against python is it's readability(put it in simple terms, python uses English words with few symbols and no semicolon on every statement to make life easy)
Every other thing is a mere assumption bro ![cheesy](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/cheesy.png) Yes python looks like a scripting language so you'd expect it to be slow, but YOUTUBE is serving over 40 million videos per hour (thanks to python). With well optimized codes and employing implementation of C/C++ in your python codes(which I don't think most programmers are patient enough to find out), speed and efficiency won't be a problem.
About Desktop App development python is still a goto language, and you're talking about Androud or IOS apps, then check out Kivy which can build cross platform GUI apps.
The Notion of Everything is as real as they say. Python can do everything, it's just the community of python developers that decide what to adopt from it. 0
You should also know that a major part of Instagram uses python. Even google APp engine. ![shocked](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/shocked.gif)
...and the reason why most people don't like an "easy" programming language is a bit personal if you ask me, python doesn't make you feel like a hard guy enough ![cheesy](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/cheesy.png) Yeah me too. I prefer harder languages because I think they're faster and more efficient. I was doing total scholarship registration for someone. Damn that site takes at least 30 seconds to load. When I see those sites, I think they're built with python. I think I'll give python a try, since it can be implemented with c++ (though I don't know how to do this). I'm thinking about ML and AI after app development, so I think python & c++ will be good. 1 Like

Health / Re: 5 Dangerous Pregnancy Complications That Can Destroy Your Home by srrrr(m): 5:36pm On Oct 31, 2018 |
dosh16:
It all depends on your doctor. You might be glad to know that most times, the decision your doctor makes is widely dependent on his training. Most old doctors (who were trained a long time ago) tend to prefer some procedures even when there are more recent and better methods. This is them doing what they're most comfortable with.
THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTion:
It's possible for a doctor to remove fibroid during a C-section. In fact, it's often really tempting(you can imagine), however, it's not safe, and usually not done. So it's most likely that only the baby will be reduced.
Here are two reasons why it is unsafe:
1. During pregnancy, the uterus becomes very vascular, thus increasing the risk of over bleeding.
2. Fibroids usually grow larger during pregnancy, partly due to pregnancy hormones. Thus, there's a higher chance that a complication might occur.
I hope this answers your question.
Thanks for asking.

I was discouraged from learning python because it's too easy to learn. To me it looks like a baby language that cares more about rapid development rather than efficiency. The most annoying part is the "Python can do everything" which makes people like me confused and scared of learning it.
I'm currently learning app development, but my question is If python was that good, why do most programmers (new programmers especially) still use java, kotlin, swift, objective c, c++, c# for app development and not python? Maybe it's not optimized for these areas. I know python can be used for mobile development, but maybe it's not for cases whereby speed and Efficiency are of great importance.
For web you hear Django, but what do programmers really use? Javascript. Python is easy but new web developers still run to node.js.
The AI and ML part makes sense because those areas are very difficult and you don't need to complicate things by using harder languages, though C++ is still used for cases I mentioned above.
I think something is wrong with the "Everything" syndrome that python lovers say every time. These are my thoughts though. 1 Like |
