Finally, “buhari here, atiku there” has come to an end. Sincerely y’all missed out on the big juice that was shared within these past few days in the tech ecosystem majorly Nigeria. Well be rest assured, falt news got y’all covered.
First on the list ;
Nigerian self taught developers are the third biggest users of Freecodecamp
A majority of Nigerians are finally leaving the whole school, white collar dogma, and taking up computer science skills. Thanks to Quincy Larson the ceo of freecodecamp, learning how to code has been made really easy and alot structured. Due to the platform's advanced computer science curriculum, its safe to say they do churn out major, world class developers.
You know that Nigeria 🇳🇬has a surging developer scene when it's the third most-represented country on @freeCodeCamp.— Quincy Larson (@ossia) February 20, 2019
Shout out to the 142,110 Naija devs who are expanding their skills and ramping up their careers here. pic.twitter.com/yarXkk7rWz
Truth is the Nigerian government hasn't done so much in enhancing and building the IT sector of the country but amidst these disadvantages, Nigerians, make up 4.1% of the general population that consume the site based on Alexa rankings. This really shows a gap in the Nigerian tech world is about to be filled, thanks to the internet and once again Quincy Larson.
Is that a shocker? Yea! I know samsung was all you heard of.
Well, like Samsung, the Chinese company launched the Huawei Mate X just immediately after samsung gave out theirs, at the 2019 mobile world congress. Following the announcement of the device, the audience was allowed to see and use the device, unlike our dear “samsung” that only showcased it through a glass box ( can you imagine? ).
Hey, I got to chat with Huawei CEO Richard Yu and he let me mess around with his personal #MateX . Surprisingly polished software. #mwc2019 pic.twitter.com/45J1VjsJhB— Roger Cheng (@RogerWCheng) February 24, 2019
The device itself, supports 5G, and has a solid-feeling hinge so that it can transform from a 6.6-inch and 6.38-inch phone into a full 8-inch Android tablet. Thats not all, it also has some serious horse power backing it up, from the new Kirin 980 chipset, and a hefty 4,500 battery capacity backing it up, i mean c’mon!! What else do you want?? When you have money lol! ( $2600 is no joke ).
