@stanlee0nX That's were consultancy comes in.

A client comes to you with an idea that you know very well will not scale and is completely a waste of resources What would you do? - just build and get paid Or - Advice then not to build it

@CodeByNZ Now I want to see the rest of the code.

Do backend devs really find joy in doing this ?

@trikcode Maybe I've not worked in large environments, but writing tests end at the job post.

The tech stack of most startups: - Frontend: React (because everyone uses React) - Backend: Whatever the CTO knew from his last job - Database: Postgres (or Mongo if someone watched a YouTube tutorial) - Auth: Copied from a blog post - Payments: Stripe (obviously) - Deployment: "It works on my machine" - Documentation: LOL - Tests: "We'll add those later" Valued at $10 million.

@Jaxweah @grok @grok verify if thats a valid address and check the balance.

@Jaxweah @grok This is why I'm building Quiika.com, funds will be verified and you'd know instantly if this is just a click bait. @grok at Grok what's your take on this.

@DebsSZN Growing up I was the best goalie in my age group in my community, so I have earned the right I guess. My career ended when I broke my hand in a penalty shootout, saving three in a row winning the game. Now I can't save a football team from behind but save teams building backends.

I remember during my secondary school inter-house sports, I was the goalkeeper for my house (Blue House). In one game, I made two costly errors. After the referee blew the whistle to restart play, I handed the ball to my defender, and she picked it up with her hands. The ref awarded a penalty, which I obviously couldn’t save. A few minutes later, I handled the ball outside my 18-yard box to stop a goalscoring opportunity which led to an automatic red card. My team went on to lose the game, and I had to switch from football to handball, where I dropped more stinkers. And now look at me, insulting Sanchez every single day. 😂😂

@delveroin Like $10k gig

What do you need so bad right now ??? 1) New phone 2) New laptop 3) New Job/Gig 4) $1000 Be honest

@TosinOlugbenga Best part is the account will be permanently disabled come March 21st.

We warned them about PayPal but they said our mouth is smelling….😂😂😂😂 How it started vrs How it’s going.

@elonmusk It fits your narrative makes it better? And you're supposed to be the smart one.

Grok 4.20 is BASED. The only AI that doesn’t equivocate when asked if America is on stolen land. The others are weak sauce.

@Hephradesign "Like bolt but better" - delusional

Brief: "App for customers, vendors, riders, and admin. Each with their own flow." Budget: ₦300k Timeline: 2 weeks Expectation: "Like Bolt but better." I need whoever is giving founders these expectations to meet me outside...Oti sunmi

@emmanuelbasy @ThisSpaze How many years will it take your job to pay him 20 million?

@ThisSpaze ABI o. How much is 20m

I once interviewed a candidate virtually for a mid-level Digital Marketing role. Strong CV. Clear answers. Interview was going really well. Midway in, his phone rang. He picked it up. Not to mute it. Not to excuse himself. He answered and said, “I’m in an interview, but go ahead.” All of us in that call were shocked. Then, barely 10 seconds later, he suddenly shouted: “Mo ti je 20 million!” (I’ve won 20 million!) meaning in English While maintaining full eye contact with everyone on the panel. When he was done celebrating, he calmly said: “Sorry about that. I don’t need your job again.” And exited the call. Omo… shock wound all of us for that interview..

@fidexcode You're the "i" in my for loop, you and I forever.

Drop your best pick-up line Use programming terms

@RichardzEdy @TosinOlugbenga It's not funny when the rabbit holds the gun.

@TosinOlugbenga Why are you complaining? I thought you constantly advocates for founders to do anything to their workers because it’s their sweat .

Man hired me to be the technical advisor for his startup(based in the UK) and I agreed for him to pay in Naira even when both of us are in the UK. I understand it’s much more easier to pay in Naira, so I agreed. Time to pay at the end of the month, then story started. He wanted to know what I have done that month, after I had several meetings with him and the engineering team, created the project architectural plan and mapped out implementation plans. If he’s doing like that to me in the same UK with him, imagine what he will do to people he will hire from Nigeria.

@elonmusk Elon Wan whine us. Baba disburse $1m only make I check something.

Whoever said “money can’t buy happiness” really knew what they were talking about 😔

@TosinOlugbenga Ladies and gentlemen, the world we find ourselves in: when they're the employee, 200k is small, when they're the employer, you should accept 200k or leave so others can accept it. But then why would you be reminded of a scheduled meeting?

200k per month for a full remote job is not small, in a startup that is pre revenue. I know it’s small money for people on Twitter. Just resign if it’s too small so someone else who’s ready to work can go for it. Every scheduled meeting, someone will have to call you directly to remind you the meeting have started. Terrible corporate behavioral dispositions.

@_peekaaboo_ AND the N50 stamp duty for 10k above transactions, just imagine the millions of 10k+ transactions every minute, and we don't see where the money is going. No stable light even in band A, interstate roads are terrible, some states own salaries, refuse to pay pensions, etc.

Let me deep somethings for Nigerians, maybe it would spark a bit of anger. A 9-5 pays PAYE (Pay as you earn) to the respective states yeah? So, if I’m earning 300k as net salary, then my gross would be 370k issh. Would roughly pay 41k as PAYE. Now what’s that 41k supposed to cover? The basic amenities like - water running to your house, electricity, good road network, wastage system, gas, security etc. yeah? Now, that my 41k is supposed to be part of other people’s 41k, 3k, 100k and even 1m PAYE so we can get common amenities. Where we have to then pay maybe a subsidized amount to maintain these things from my 300k So, in essence, I will pay 41k to have those amenities and maybe another 30k from my 300k to have access to those services on a monthly. Now, here lies the problem- We provide water light and security for ourselves, yet we pay government taxes to provide same. I have paid the 41k to government, and I am going out there to provide another 50-60k to get same thing I have paid before to government. Isn’t that like double taxation? Let’s start from waste disposal- they don’t come, so you call Beruwa. Water - no government water, so you build boreholes, buy pumping machines and buy tanks. Gas - Government of Nigeria doesn’t even know that exists Electricity- no stable light, so you have to buy generator or solar to sustain. Keep buying fuel etc or doing maintenance on solar. Now if any of you deep it, that money you are using for all these things are actually supposed to be your savings for the future. That 3m for solar, that’s money that if invested would help you on the future. Or calculate the fuel money you buy every 3days or the money you pay for electricity to pump water. Compound that money and you should actually have savings. And yet, we don’t even hold our government accountable anymore So sad. So, you earn 300k, you paid tax of 41k already for basic things, you still end of paying another 50-60k to get those basic things by yourself. You haven’t even considered food or travels or transportation or shopping or sending money to family. But you are already short by 60k Well, it is well

@dev_TEMITAYO Your practically setting the standards of that project, user direction, you solve a problem. Not every beautiful design can't fit needs of the current use case. This saying every project is a new challenge.

We have over thousands of design templates, yet UI/UX designers are still in high demand

@jaiyex1000 @hannytalker Do ask this question, make I dey plan exit or future before hand.

@hannytalker Hi Hansel, I have a question? If you don’t mind. If recruiters can ask why did you leave your previous role or why are you looking to leave? Can I also ask why the role became vacant?

If people were 100% honest during job interviews... 😅 Interviewer: Why did you choose our company? Me: Because I didn't really have a choice. I was applying to everything, and you were the first ones to call me back. 🤷‍♂️ Interviewer: Why did you leave your last job? Me: The salary started getting small. Interviewer: Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Me: Honestly? I hope to be skilled enough to work on my own terms. Maybe freelancing from a beach in Thailand, or at least at a place where my boss doesn’t text me at 11:47 PM. 🌴 Interviewer: Why should we hire you? Me: Probably because there were no other decent candidates if you’ve made it this far down the list. 😂 Interviewer: Do you have any questions for us? Me: No, it’s all clear. As long as I get paid on time and don’t have to work on weekends, we’re good. 👌 Drop your most honest “inner” answers in the comments 👇
