$ sudo rm -rf *

should i run that on my linux ?

Why not? Just remember that you are responsible for the results and not me.

For sure, you will be responsible

Someone should tell me if am going to regret moving all my 7 websites to a $5/m VPS

5 * 7 * 12 = $420/Year
Compared to
10 * 7 = $70/Year

Aside flexibility, customisation, total control that VPS offers which WEBSITES do not really requires, you can stick with your shared server - I assumed that you are using one.
"ALTER TABLE `myfriends` DROP `unuseful_ones`";

dont try it o

Lol, why? Dem planty die
Another issue of the day...

Senior developers are unintentionally proud when you ask them for a simple help, they'll either ignore or give you a short helpless answer or refer you to a tutorial on google.

Some are actually very nice tho, but very very very hard to come by
To me, I see this as an issue with spending too much time with the computer and as well how I will rather give my cousin a book to learn LCM as he can read to understand-while I learn new stuffs, and put him through when he needs it.

Let's analyze, say you just got to a home, you needed to use the rest room, you are to ask where it is located right? Computer will rather ask you where are you, or what do you want to do, how do you prefer it then give you a direction, while human will point you straight to the next one. With those seniors, your question might be too generic to solve, you need to break it down

To ask a question from seniors, you need to be very very specific. And if you want to the best from them provide a sample code that's not working.
Have you tried submitting an issue to a well organised open source project? They will provide you a series of questions to answer and ask you to provide a repo of the reproduced error, do you know why?

They don't have to look for what is not missing.
They have their time to spend really wisely.
There are so many other reports to check.

So don't blame the ones that does not take time to give what you want how you want. When the time comes, you will understand too.

I am no way a senior, I am speaking from inferring as them due to some questions I get while writing my programs. Someone came to me to learn to code, his hope was that I should take hands on -which can never be possible. I have a project I was working on, so, I shared him a couple of PDFs asked for his progress, he later dropped in the end.

So, it is a very easy thing. When you run into one problem, try Google. I believe there is a solution already, except you're missing the term to use. And if you can't ask a senior but be very specific, they will answer you right away or point you to a resource - no essence to reinvent the wheel. Save them some time and energy, programmers don't like wasting them.
But why do senior developers prefer to use big words just to complicate issues for we upcoming developers? 馃

I stop learn C++ in 2009 when I encounter the word polymorphism et al in a pdf ebook "Thinking in C++ - by Bjarne Stroustrup". I just start learning C++ on my own after my SSCE. Then I have nobody to advise me not to read a book like that at an early stage of learning. Before then I have been doing some console stuff 

I start using a dictionary but still not making sense. Had to abandon ship before I start to dey kolo. Then I moved to PHP where am trying to find my way out.

The Issue is Nigerian young Programmers like us need mentors/coach, to explain some stuff in simple terms

You are right. I am a testimony,. I move so far in a shorter period because I sat side by side with a pro developer.

I was not so lucky, I had to wad through the MUD on my own, got stuck, had to unstuck myself several times.
Things were terrible back then, no good internet or online communities to run to when you get stuck.
No browser console to even help you debug your javaScript, no wamp, xampp or any of those things.

@dhtml Old papa youngie.

Am planning to start using Yoruba version of Lorem Ipsun

Give an excerpt of what it should look like.

Guys, I've got a question that's been bothering me for a while. How do websites/banks send automated sms to their users? Like verification code messages, transaction messages.

@badoo have you seen twilo?
We have worked with them in the past.
Might not be what the banks are using, but should be something similar.
Like the messages Google/Facebook/Github send.

There is always an API of the provider that can be interfaced with.
You only need to get a provider that suits your need.

Thanks, @limistah. I will check it out.

@Badoo, you can also take a look at the Developer API at smslive247

Twilio is an excellent and popular messaging API

I have worked with something like this b4... I used it to create some kind of token for requesting users so I can make automated payments with API

Yeap, that too

I know of sort codes, different for each branch. Might be SWIFT CODES, I don't know of this.
GTB's sort codes is on their site for different branches.

Ehen, that is what it is, you gorrit!!
