for some "programmers" its understandable- someone pays the bill.

but what of others- with 1 hour average electricity a day?
(2 days- blackout,1 day on(3 - 5hours)).
living in a place where there is no gen running-this is naija not
yankee! - or where the gen doesnt run as often as u need it?

how do u code when ur pc is often off?
not the blue screen of death-
the black screen of powerlessness.

programmers' they say don't have a life-apart from the pc.
but to hug the machine-the machine must be running.
how do u get addicted when nepa won't even let u boot into the OS?!

go to where there is a better power supply.

they constantly work with generators

lolzzz. Same here!!!

Get an inverter and a small generator to charge the inverter occasionally. And don't use a desktop; get a laptop. With a 120AH dry cell battery you can work for a whole day on your laptop and only maybe 5 hours on a desktop. And charging takes 3-5 hours, depending on your charger. That's all.

Like it's that cheap, No be everybody be Olowo like you na.

When I started, I used the last 40k in my account to buy an inverter+battery, and I've never regretted it.

Generator: 15k. Inverter: 35k. Battery: 22k. While your mates are waiting for NEPA, you're making money.

It’s no doubt that women love shoes, especially those famous brands shoes, such as Christian Louboutin, Gucci, CHANL, etc. As a girl, I also like to buy beautiful shoes; and pumps are my favorite. i bought a pair of Christian Louboutin Pumps Platform Pump Black from www.christianlouboutin365.com some days ago , the price of the shoes are cheap but super in quality. and the after-sell service of this website are very good,too .it is really a magic.

It not a sure banka stuffz that one will get back such money he invested!!!

Na God ohh, and skillz with right stuffz

Once upon a time I had to program without the benefit of a computer (never mind light).
I guess it really helped 'cos I still spend more time on my scratch pad than I do on the system in any programming effort.

If you are really down with programming it's kinda like an addiction. No matter the obstacle you will find a way around it.

NTA news flash. Mr Seun tells his story to aspiring Programmers.

Sound advice all the way,

When I started mine 2 years ago,
i stick to a cyber cafe because i have little idea of how troubleshoot Local Area network and Computer system.
I help the do repairs and i used Both Nepa and Gen, free browsing as addition, though i dont have laptop as of then.

But now i have Little C++ programing Knowledge

If you are in a ghetto like me you can find your way to were you can enjoy free access to power make friend with them.

and so on

I like Seun's idea. But the thing is cost of living is higher today than it was then. I would suggest you make plans to move to Ghana. That is my own plan.
