How can you do check spelling in Romanian, if you don’t write with diacritics?
Tip: you can write with diacritics, do check spelling and then remove diacritics.

In a presentation („Prezentări de succes”) I attended via JA Romania, the presenter said something in the line of: „When you start some presentation, of any sort (video, audio, speech, story), don’t start with «He is X, X is doing so and so». Instead, start with the action. Don’t introduce the characters, starts where the action is”.
I liked the idea.
If you want to win a mime game, try to choose people that don’t have remarkable things.
Ion Rațiu is famous for his bow, while Radu Câmpeanu is not known for such a thing – thus Radu Câmpeanu is more difficult to guess.
Charlie Chaplin has lots of things you can pick up. Bobby Ewing from „Dallas„? Less so.
Some principles I like to follow when working on tasks:
Let’s say you want to create a password for a website.
How to do it?
One way is to create a password and use it repeatedly on a lot of other websites. That’s a poor solution.
Another solution would be to use a password generator and manager to generate and save a password and use complex, random passwords. The solution is optimal, but it requires some technical skills – handling a password manager is not very complicated, nor is it simple.
You could use a system like GMail offers: create a username based on email, something like:
firstname.surname+randomtext@gmail.com,
where „random text” could be random for each website you create an account.
And, either based on such an email or on the URL of the website, you could create a uniquely different password.
So, if I want to create an account on vodafone.ro, I could use my email name+vodafone.ro@gmail.com, and password „mypassword+vodafone.ro”.
Yet, just by looking at the above example, one can understand how I got to have that password and try to replicate the login on different websites.
Yes, a bot will fail to replicate the password, but a human hacker will easily understand my password.
There’s another solution, though – based on either the URL (vodafone.ro) or email username (name+vodafone.ro@gmail.com), I could generate a string.
There are some hash generators that, starting from such a string would generate a random password.
An online example, but there are many others: SHA256 Hash Generator Online.
Hash for vodafone.ro: „990F509B877370D67FB2202D3D0332543642E6846D17F9F3029E60C0EB395DAC”.
Hash for name+vodafone.ro@gmail.com: „533C151BC4F877C3E7CFE2033CF602F27D6833BD60C8EF5CC0430B431C4D3BF1”.
This is also not impossible to hack, but it’s much more complicated.
You could even create a custom function, a custom hash generator.
Thus, you would have an unique, complex, password for each website.
When I tell others they can use a password manager like LastPass, I’m often told – „what if I forget/lose that password, or what if LastPass goes down?”.
Quite a few people have been afraid of forgetting the password and getting locked out completely.
The solution is simple – most password managers offer you the option to export your passwords.
Do this periodically, and make an archive with a password you know.
If the online password manager disappears, you’ll still have your archive.
In my opinion, the risks for this happening are miniscule.
I like to save the jobs I apply to.
I have an Excel file with the following columns:
Date Job Title Company Location Job Listing Job Listing #2 Cover letter Link Portfolio sent? Response? Optimism-level
I save in it the date I applied, the job title, company, where the job is placed, a link to the job posting (and a second one, in case there are more), my cover letter used for the job (so I’ll know, later on, what I wrote to the company), whether I sent a portfolio or not if I received a response, and how optimistic am I of getting the job.
Having a centralized system for this helps with organizing stuff.
Internet with a failsafe solution – in Năvodari, when I don’t have electricity at home, this also happens on the staircase hall, within the block of flats. There is a router in there, so if I don’t have electricity in my house, there’s no cable Internet.
My solution? I connect to my mobile.
An optimal solution? I think it’s best to have two connections to the Internet.
The poorest solution – „there is no Internet, we’re not doing anything.”
Large companies, which depend on Internet, are looking at a backup solution that costs 30-50 lei per month, and an initial investment in a router that is capable of handling two connections to the net at the same time.
For example, such a router would allow an immediate failsafe – if there is no Internet, another connection would take over immediately.
