KennethFranc, don't take the "bank" job. They're often exhaustive, dead-end jobs. Trust me... You'll need to meet given targets regularly otherwise you won't be able to keep that job for long.

Rather, keep this job you feel comfortable in already. You need to manage your time to be able to pursue programming. Squeeze in time , everyday.

I started learning programming when I worked as a merchandiser for a company in 2009. I started by reading ebooks on my computer then. One hour everyday , progressed to 2 hours, then 3 hours. I read during bus trips, in between staff meetings. Any spare time I had.

Every time you learn, build an app to instill the knowledge you acquire. Don't just be reading or watching tutorials. It's when you build applications that you learn the most.

Idrismusty97:
So marrying more than a wife prevents men from adultery? It is like saying drinking even more beers prevent you from getting drunk. This is likened to Allah making adultery legal in order to prevent the same adultery.

While you think you're making a point because you're getting a lot of likes..., If truly you are a Muslim, be very careful about what you say or attribute to Almighty Allah.

Desist from making impermissible what Allah has not. Whatever your justification.

Do not slander the name of Allah whatever your objective.

Your attempts at winning an argument may result to your ruin. And you may not have an inkling of this until the day of reckoning.

Don't let arrogance fuel your ruin.
Know this: "Almighty Allah who created us all knows us all more than we do."
Allah, the Most High, is All-wise.

Shy away from hypocrisy.

Beware Idris Mustapha and all the rest of you.

If you will not indulge polygamy, do not condemn it for those that do. That is hypocritical.

True, Allah has given every Muslim the faculty of reasoning.
Nevertheless, be cautious of portraying yourself as more knowledgeable on matters Allah has already made a ruling an all-wise ruling.

Know this also:
There are talks of Muslims long dead but whose corpses still remain fresh, tens of years after their deaths. Defying rot, the elements and the natural laws of nature. These individuals practiced polygamy and lived life yet still saw some of the mercies of Allah.

Some comments have been taken off after I reported them because they outrightly insulted Islam (mockeries.. something you all missed while striving to prove each other right or wrong).

Muslims beware and avoid fanning flame of discussions that attracts non-Muslim to disrespect Allah, the Holy Prophet, the Sunnah and all practising Muslims.
But if they do intrude on discussions that they have no understanding of, do not shy away from putting them in their place by standing together to scold them. Or better, report the comments.
Try doing that least for Islam, the best of religions.

I just wanna know which is the best of them all

C'mon dude. There's, probably, tens of links on this topic - outside of Nairaland.
You can use search engines to find discussions on it.

If your intension's not to start a war, rather that you're really keen on using a framework, just pick one of Yii or Laravel. Either will serve you well.

Ha! Got it.

Damn! I know things are hard in Nigeria but the youth here have no ambition whatsoever. Except one, being the guy who can smoke the "sickest" hemp/weed.

While those not into weed are either into skirts or Yahoo-Yahoo.

Bro plz give us a salary range for something like a Quality Control Analyst that is the most important information we long for. Even if you don't have an give us a rough estimate plz

Well... I would say N150,000 - N250,000

I got regret mail.... so so sad!

Sorry, I was offline, busy.

It's sad you didn't get the job. My heart goes out to you. Like i stated earlier, it's their loss.
That's how I get through a disappointment.
I know if you'd worked you woulda been grateful for the job and taken the work seriously.

But there's one other thing. the company's not that big, just in name, cos its been around a looooooooong time. Their production section's small and hard to get into, cos people rarely quit their positions. And they have a knack for hiring mainly to fill sales men positions for their distributors.

'Doesn't necessarily mean you failed the test. I'm serious about this, you might not be told there's no position you can fill, presently.

My brother, yours will come.
Aluta continua

I don't know how much you might earn in that department - that's Production Department. I worked in Sales Department. Back then, at interviews, you're asked questions relating to the applied position, well... naturally.
Simply brace yourself for any question relating to the position you applied for and don't lie about anything. Every employer hates that.
After the interview, you might be asked to get a medical assessment. You don pass be dat. Now pray your result no show gono or HIV <shudder> . God forbid.
Dude if you get in, Congrats. If not, it's their loss. They ain't the only company. You'll get a job eventually.
#Stay_Positive

For all:
Sorry, I don't usually follow threads, religiously. There're too many to keep up with...

Yes I worked there years ago.

The salary was alright. 'Depending on the position you apply for.
And yes you get allowances depending on position like I stated earlier.

A lot has changed however, years after I left. Heard the ownership changed over its sale. So besides the old days i can't really tell what goes on in there now.

Best I'll suggest is apply for a sales position if you can drive and sell merchandise.

But applying for administrative position that's not top executive.... waste of time

Mackin:
Good write up The web developer

Thank you. And glad to help. #ThumbsUp

The correct address is:
Johnson Wax,
13 & 14, Abimbola street, Isolo Industrial Estate, Isolo.

Direction, dependent on your location:
(1) From Mile 2/FESTAC town - Board a bus going to Oshodi/Isolo/Airport Road, alight at Iyana Isolo. If you have the balls, cross the highway...
(2) From Oshodi - Board a bus going to Mile 2 or Cele-Ijesha, alight at Iyana-Isolo bus stop....

In addition to both directions:
Ask for directions to GT Bank Ilewe-Meta bus stop. It's within walking distance. When at the bank, ask for Abimbola street, stick to the left of the street. The company has a sign with SCJohnson or Johnson Wax Nigeria limited. You can't miss it. Within walking distance also.
The company will employ you if you pass the screening tests.
'Want a heads up, brush up on your high school subjects, cos a lot of graduates boast about having a degree but don't know jack.
Another heads up, don't just tell them you've this and that qualification, tell them stuff you actually contributed to environments or institutions you've been or private projects you've developed. It picks their interest.
Last heads-up, don't expect a reply anytime soon, the company recruits when an opening is around the corner. Don't blame them.

Good luck

you can bring ideas.

#Looking_Agape

Bros, I doubt you'll find such commitment on Nairaland.
But what do I know, I'm just a FRAKKING web developer.

#All_The_Same____Good_Luck

osarenomaspecial:
am vast in programming, i need a co-founder, i will do the design and u will support. stake is 50/50.

You said support. But support isn't elaborated on.
If you're thinking of web development, then designs would be covered by you while the back-end programming will be covered by the cofounder. Is that correct?
Or are you just thinking in terms of software development?
I'm asking cos you didn't imply the scope of the partnership project.

Charpell:


Thank you very much sir this was really helpful.

When i first contacted my host this was their response.

"Since resources are shared among all websites on the server. And this effects performance of websites on the same server if one website is consuming more resources than others. Hence we distribute it equally among all websites.
The values that you are asking us to change is not possible as it can effects performance of other websites hosted on the same server."


Is there any side effect of using custom php.INI?

Thanks again

No there isn't any side effect.
The Apache web server first looks for a php.INI file in the web root. When it can't find one it defaults to the settings (php.ini) on the web server.
The worst that can happen is, Apache ignores the custom php.INI file if it's set to disregard any php.ini not created by the server administrator. In this case, the settings I suggested won't work.
But try those settings first.

fnep2smooth:
I build my website on WordPress and I hosted it on hostigator with a one month plan. Two months later it got expired and I don't have any cash at that time because its expensive and am a student. so I abandoned it for like 10 months and now I want to move it from hostigator to any free hosting site who can allow me to generate 40,000 traffic in a month till am fit to pay for premium hosting.

I want to know how to move it so that all my plugins and settings I have set before is got expire to be at the same setting I put it.

please recommend some hosting site who can do the above and please till me how to move my content. thanks

You can move the site files several ways:
You can get your site files:
(1) via CPanel, create a backup copy of the site files and the associated database(s).
(2) Or download all site files with an FTP client or one built into your editor. Then download the associated database from phpMyAdmin

You can move your site files to the new web host og
(1) Upload the site files with an FTP client.
(2) Upload the site files through CPanel.
Then upload the database via phpMyAdmin.

But I doubt you can still retrieve those site files. In fact, it's highly doubtful.
Nevertheless, ...

Good luck.

Hello webmasters,

I got a script i want to install in a new hosting plan but my server didnt meet the script requirement.

Here are the parameters. how do i effect the changes in php.ini file?


max_execution_time = 30 (It need to be in 0 in both the local and master value)

max_input_time = 60 (It need to be in 6000 in both the local and master value)

memory_limit = 128M (It need to be in 512M in both the local and master value)

post_max_size = 8M ( It need to be in 100M in both the local and master value)

upload_max_filesize = 2M ( It need to be in 100M in both the local and master value)

display_errors = Off (It need to be in On in both the local and master value)

Let me know , once you have updated above changes.


Thanks

Hello Charpell:

I presume you're using shared hosting, therefore, you won't have access to the server's php.INI file.
But you can create one in your 'legacy folder' ensure you upload the file outside the web root, for security.
Before uploading the file, enter the following parameters as required, eg:
max_execution_time = 0
max_input_time = 6000
memory_limit = 512M
post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
display_errors = On

Then save the file and upload it.

If you upload it one level above the root folder, eg:
/php.ini
/www/your_site_index.php

... and it doesn't work, give it a few minutes. If it still doesn't work, move the file to the web root folder. That is top level domain of your site pages. Eg:
/www/php.ini
/www/your_site_index.php

Lest I forget:
If you're using shared hosting, you can't change any of the master values. Only the server administrator can. And he won't do it for you for any reason.
The best you can do is use a custom php.INI

Hope I helped.

Silverman42:
The correct syntax should be:
"INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2, column3) VALUES (value1, value2, value3)"
Where value1, value2 and value3 = integer or character.

Thumbs up for 'best practice'.

@ OP:
If the SQL executes perfectly in phpMyAdmin, that is, once, then you're making two insert statements in your original script.

If you're using PHP, for instance, note the line number of the SQL in your text editor.
Now go up to the beginning of your script to check for any similar calls.

But here are my presumptions:
You might have created a function having that SQL and you changed the content of the same function. However, you're calling that function twice.
You might have created a loop(whatever for, as that would be absurd).

One thing is certain, you're using insert statement twice.

Which kain senior you be sef?

If you want to reference a conspiracy theory, at least, reference a credible and well-prove story. Not some insinuation by some dude who's got no bloody proof.

I'm a novice and I want to take the challenge and do this. But I want to know what programming language to learn. Here's a model of what I want to do with it:

--A website that helps users find what to eat.
--The website will have a database of as many food recipes as possible.
--The food finder tool will bring a food suggestion based on the user's answer to gender, age, mood, diet preference, etc.

Hope you guys get it? So any suggestions?

Learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, Bootstrap, PHP, MySQL

Tanks dude...gratitude!!!!....I dont think its a recruitment agency cos the lady claimed sh was calling frm wazobia and the address stated wazobia fm.However as I was abt asking for the post the line dropped and bn trying severally to reach buh no fruition...in for a big shit!!!!!

Then that's good man. Don't fret that you can't phone them back. Believe me, asking them the position you applied for is a bad idea. It'll put you in bad light.
Dress well, grab your pali, be punctual and... kick arrssse!

I received a call last nite that I av bn shortlisted for an interview for 2nd of April at wazobia fm..plz guys elp o cos I cant remember wen I applied.....anyone wit me??

You've been invited for an interview you don't remember applying for... That's a kick in the balls!

Just think of all the positions you've been applying for and prepare yourself for the likelihood it's one of them. It's likely, the vacancy might not have implied the true employer so as to minimize voluminous applications.
There's also the possibility the address will eventually be of a recruitment agency close to Wazobia FM. That depends on the actual message and if there won't be an update to the address before D-day.
