“scaling”

Hello! I’m from Nigeria(Africa) and I have two Job offers in Lithuania and Netherlands as an intermediate level dev (software engineer, no senior or junior attached). I am still early in my career, 1.8yrs professional experience. Which would you advise I take and why? Assuming you don’t know how much pay is. Thanks!

does a different error message still mean progress when you go from 3 error messages to 173?

Day 8 without a laptop and I am losing my mind!!! I am behind on all projects with a review coming up on Saturday!!!!😡
My MacBook fell victim to the flex gate design flaw, costing a fortune to fix. I am getting a surface book instead and it was supposed to arrive today!!!! Now they are saying there’s a delay and I don’t even know when it will arrive!!!!!!! I am losing my mind! Help! 😩 what can I do to pass the time and take my mind off being behind on projects? It hit so bad I started learning to dance from YouTube! I’m tired of reading too!!!! Help! 😰

Interviewed at Microsoft 2days ago. I feel positive about it. Fingers crossed to see what feedback I get.

Bought my first rubber duck today. Named her recursion 😍😍😍

It just hit me that when we reach self aware AI we will have to start using “requests” as opposed to “commands”

Found this on twitter. #eminem #humor

‪Why do developers leave out the google search engine when they list out their development tools?‬

So I just graduated college last month. I had been in this internship for about three months. In the last month I lead a team that developed and integrated a chat application into a Booking Website for enterprises. (They handle bulk bookings for seminars, travel, etc. flights, hotels, local transport, etc).

Anyways I’ve always wondered when I can consider myself a “real programmer.” This is my first completed project and I am very proud of it!

Also I got a job with the Hotel company to maintain among other things 😀

I’m a software Developer! (Erm, or programmer?)

Dreams do come true! 😀

Lecturer : Today you can save data into the internet.

The internet is not a storage device 🤦‍♂️

Correct terminology when talking to computer science finalists too much to ask?

And we complain about the government.

Navigating Directories with PowerShell, coursemates staring and thinking I'm a badass hacker. Their reaction when a directory not found generates five lines of bright red jargonized line in the console and I just nod slowly as if I'm understanding something deep 😂😂

always wanted to learn to use Linux, but school and c# has kept me on Windows, but I finally have Ubuntu on Windows, what should I start learning? please don't say the basic commands, learnt those ones, like is there a project or something I can plug into, and struggle with, and eventually learn from? Thanks!

while writing a software for records compilation for a high school, the principal asked if the software would be able to mark the answer sheets from the students,

I'm taking, non multiple choice answer sheets.
hand written.

how?

no profession has the kind of online communities like developers and programmers,

why?

we haven't built it for them ^_^

This is fact.

while reading rebecca & brain's book on object oriented software. I realised that the programmer is a special kind of person. the complexity he can handle, the struggle to implement a system, from input to output, satellite control, AI, robotics, heck, even the planning required for a simple android app, the complexity is overwhelming at first, then you get your jotter and break it down into parts, and you drive yourself to the edge of sanity figuring out an algorithm, then you go over that edge implementing it, but oh that great super hero feeling when you finally get something to work exactly as specified, I'm not sure people in other professions can understand the satisfaction. I'm very young in the whole programmer world, but I'm growing fast, I'm just really grateful programming found me, I mean, can you think of something else you'lld rather do? yeah, me neither.

client to Freelance programmer : we'll need a website, an android app, an ios app, a windows phone app, a windows desktop application, a Linux app, a mac app, we also want an interactive game version of the app, for learning and tutorials, can you develop all that? *developer : yes. *goes to learn c# : )

all men are !equal. Some are programmers. it's beautiful how only a programmer would get this.

iprogram, does this make me an apple product? : )

When someone calls me VincentNwonah and expects me to answer. but I'm a programmer and VincentNwonah is a different object from NwonahVincent. ;p
