If you need to add citations (bibliography) in a scientific paper like a dissertation thesis or a scientific paper, you might find the following site useful: www.citethisforme.com.
Even the free version is good enough, but you will need to periodically save your bibliography elsewhere.
One of the strongest features of the tool is the ability to pull data for a book from its ISBN. It does a similar thing with URLs and Scientific Papers.
It supports multiple citation styles.

Let’s say you have an MKV movie, and that movie also has a SRT (subtitle) file. BSPlayer will automatically use the SRT file in the folder with the movie. If the SRT file has the same name (without extension) as the MKV movie, that SRT file will always be used. How do you use another subtitle with the movie? One solution is to drag & drop the subtitle over the BSPlayer window, or to load another subtitle. But if you watch the movie with breaks, that would be rather inconvenient. If you can’t delete the SRT file, for whatever reasons, how can you override loading that subtitle? The answer is simple, although it might be a bit unexpected – rename the file you want to be used as [nameoftheMKVmovie].[sub extension]. So, just use the same name as the movie + SRT file into a SUB file, and add .sub at the end of the filename. That subtitle will always override the SRT file.
In „Anything You Want” book by Derek Sivers (“40 lessons for a new kind of entrepreneur”), you find lessons from 10 years of experience in one hour, designed to be immediately usable for your own business or project.
I liked the book a lot, very nice. I had just one issue with it – you said something like that the main focus of an entrepreneur is to remember he/she is happy, so if at some point they don’t like the business anymore, the could sell it, like Derek did, instead of struggling with it a lot.
I think there’s a difference between what makes me happy on the short term (eating ice cream) and on the long-term (not getting sick by eating too much ice cream for longer periods of time). So, yes, you can definitely go out of a business if that makes you happy in the short term. But if you think you can move the world in the long run, you could give that business a chance.
Other than that, a nice book! Recommended.
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.
