Back in the day, to be able to have multiple wives, a man would need to be a successful farmer or businessman with a lot of yams in his barn. Today, you just need to wear gown, speak big big English and skip breakfast because you’ll invite people for brunch.

Not one person has been able to explain HOW a backend engineer can show their work on social media. Just shalaye everywhere. Okay, I am wrong. Can you educate me HOW to do it?
As a backend engineer, if it’s possible to 'show‘ your work in a way random people on the internet can understand, then you have a massive skill issue. Probably still at the early stages of your career. Ideally, you don’t even want to be seen and love the peace that comes with

What has this got to do with number of followers. Maybe you could have just disagreed instead of this. Perhaps comprehension is not your thing, and I’d like to apologise for taking your to unfamiliar territory.

You’ll understand what I mean when the worst thing that can happen to you is to find many meetings on your calendar. Client facing engineers/designers get wet and even orgasm when what they’ll do all day is yap in meetings.

On the other hand, if your role takes you far away from client facing issues, you are getting closer to toxic masculinity 😂 You simply don’t give a fok.

My hot take is that it is a spectrum 😂 It goes without saying that there are outliers; however, the more client facing tasks your role requires, the more in touch you are with your feminine side. You are also more likely to be outgoing, friendly and can create fun out of
Y’all know how gay it is to be a male front end engineer? Your mates are building logic, you’re splashing water color on boxes. GAE

Educate me. What should a backend engineer post on social media to show their work. I want to learn from you.
I'm sorry, this is an incorrect take. Associating sentiments or introverted behavioural pattern with 1s and 0s.

I have not written any client facing api in the last 2 years. There’s a lot more to backend than providing endpoints.
@Benn_X1 I don’t think this is true and heavily disagree with this 100%. I believe this is a programmer mindset and not a software engineering one. I argue that if you can show your work to random people and they understand, you’re very good. This is the dream of good SWEs.

I'm so jealous of designers. Their work speaks for them, no need for too much shalaye. Backend dev? Lol.

If you want to womanise, at least select quality meat and eat only fresh soup. This is the bare minimum, especially when you’re unbelievably liquid. Pack midfielders full squad con call am polycule. I pour you spit.

I see a lot of hot takes on defecting politicians. If you were a politician in PDP who wants to be re-elected or elected, you’d also leave the party. Wike is there to sabotage your aspirations. You won’t sit back and let him succeed.

In retrospect, I think I needed to go through that phase early in life. I learned to take my destiny in my hands.

2019. I started from scratch again. Moved in with my parents. Lost everything including my friends. This is my second chance and that’s why I am very intentional about the things I do.
Which year destroyed your mental health most ?

One of the passages that refused to leave me after I closed Things Fall Apart was the portrait of Okonkwo; who pursued deliverance from poverty with a monk’s austerity and a madman’s fire. “With a father like Unoka, Okonkwo did not have the start in life which many young men

As a finance professional, all you really need is one CA qualification and either a CFA or an MBA. Chasing countless certifications here and there won’t necessarily make you more technically sound. Once you get into real work and you see depth you need to cover which..

Not when the side project(s) are different varieties of a todo app or an “e-commerce” website.
Unpopular opinion: Side projects > tech degrees when it comes to real learning.
