If you want to apply for jobs easily, I have created a Microsoft Word VBA script which helps you write cover letters easily. They are different one from another.
I have also created an Excel file, useful for the occasions when you wish to have an overall view on the job application process.
Please find the files below, and also a YouTube video explaining the details.
If you want to run a program writen in C++, and you want to have this clause at the beginning of the program:
#include «MPI h»
(details here and here), you should compile the program using the following clauses:
Program using the Message Passing Interface should be compiled by using something like mpicc main.c -o main or mpiCC main.cpp -o main. Is it your case ? Regarding the second message : you may have two implementations of the MPI standards on your computer. You may try to know more by typing which mpicc, which mpirun, mpirun –version or module avail. The implementation (openmpi or mpich2 or…) of compiler command must be the same as the command to execute the program mpirun -np 2 main.
From time to time, I see live broadcasts of events in Romania. I’m generally against this.
Let’s say you want to take a decision – should I watch “X” movie or not? What should you do?
I’ll write in this blog post about the dangers of over-specialization.
I’ve seen people worrying about bounce rates around 60%. I think there are two types of bounce rate:
I would advise you to think about these two types of bounce rates when analyzing.
Another thing – some types of businesses have a high bounce rate due to their niche. It’s normal for a publishing web site to have a high bounce rate. A mortgage calculator which refreshes the page after it performs calculations, though, shouldn’t have a high bounce rate.
Whenever you right click on a file or folder in Dropbox, and choose “Share”, you will generally get a link which looks like this:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/randomtextdkjkfjell/Name-Of-The-File.xls?dl=0
Ever wondered what “dl=0” stands for? It’s download, and it’s set, as a default not to download your file.
Just change dl=0 to dl=1 and the file will automatically start downloading whenever the recipient of the link clicks on it.
There are a lot of storage solutions these days, but I prefer Dropbox for better integration with other services, like ifttt.com.
You might know of this solution: in GMail, you can write your email: myemail@gmail.com (for example) in the following ways:
… And so on, pretty much any combination of dots and labels.
When organizers of a conference have a lot of good speakers and only a day or two in which to have them all speak, they organize the speakers into panels. It sounds good at the beginning: 5 speakers on stage, each giving their reply to the questions, as they arise.
Just Google [volunteering helps with] and you will get some reasons for which people volunteer.
But the most important reasons are these two:
I think I’ve read it first on Derek Siver’s blog, but it was also a long thought of mine, that in order to best help an NGO you should do the work which is most impactfull (which is likely to be something closely related to your 9-to-5 job), and use the money you earn like this to help NGOs. This should have more impact than you giving flyers and organizing events.
