Dau mai jos o argumentație pentru care ultra-competitivitatea în România dă niște probleme în sistemul bancar.

De ce unica soluție pentru productivitate și eficiență este să fii maniac, să faci obsesiv un lucru, până devii bun?
Dacă aveți un pic de timp, dați o șansă cântecelului de mai jos:
(pun versurile la finalul articoluilui)
Am un bun prieten în Năvodari / Constanța, care mi-a zis de multe ori că sunt maniac, și mi-a dat exemple cu tot felul de activități de care, odată ce mă apuc de ele, le consum obsesiv, până îmi intră în fire. În liceu, șah, apoi Mortal Kombat (un joc de calculator, nu prea mergeam eu pe la orele de sport în perioada respectivă), programare.
How to batch change the date of a long list of files within a folder, based on timestamps from a different folder?
My situation is the following:
- At some point I got a large database of music files, in mp3 format.
- I added album covers using MP3tag automatically.
- That software changed the timestamps of all my music files to some new values.
- I still had the pre-changed files, the files with the original timestamps.
- Now, a dilemma – based on 1,000 files with old/new timestamps, how can I transfer the old timestamps to new timestamps?
The solution proved a bit difficult. I detail it, below.
De ce să faci bine? Efectul de unda in trafic, analizat de cercetatori: „Un simplu gest de bunatate sau de agresivitate poate initia un lant de evenimente”
De ce să faci bine? „Stilul de condus agresiv sau combativ frustreaza alti conducatori auto in trafic, care preiau aceasta stare si creaza un lant de agresivitate si de situatii de condus nesigure. Pe de alta parte, conducatorii auto grijulii si atenti au efectul opus, ajutand la crearea unui mediu sigur si lipsit de stres in trafic”, noteaza studiul. In aceasta cercetare, din cei aproape 9.000 de conducatori auto din 15 tari europene, 87% au fost de acord ca stilul de condus al unui conducator auto grijuliu ii poate face si pe ei sa fie grijulii si atenti mai tarziu in calatoria lor. Circa 55% au admis ca atunci cand intalnesc un conducator auto iritat sau provocator, vor fi si ei predispusi sa preia acest tip de comportament mai tarziu. Un simplu gest de bunatate sau de agresivitate poate initia un lant de evenimente, creand un mediu care este fie confortabil si sigur, fie stresant si periculos pentru conducatorii auto.

The Best Way to Reach Your Goals May Be Publicly Recording Your Progress
Our findings are of relevance to those interested in changing their behavior and achieving their goals, as well as to those who want to help them, like weight loss programs, money advice agencies or sport coaches. Prompting people to monitor their progress can help them to achieve their goals, but some methods of monitoring are better than others. Specifically, we would recommend that people be encouraged to record, report or make public what they find out as they assess their progress. (The Best Way to Reach Your Goals May Be Publicly Recording Your Progress) Personal note: I think there’s a difference between thinking short term and long term. Goals vs. Systems, if you prefer. In this case, making goals and putting them online sure helps. Yes, just thinking in term of goals is short-term focus, and making them public gives instant gratification. But there’s another view, that you should focus on long-term. For those kind of people, the help is less. Anyhow, all-in-all, I still think it’s a good idea to pursue goals (Goals (& more) – Olivian.ro – de Olivian Breda).
Concluzii după Black Friday 2015
… și a fost și Black Friday 2015. Am cumpărat pentru mai multe persoane, buget pe la 8.000 de lei, undeva în zona asta, cumpărături totale. Cele mai multe comenzi au fost la eMAG, dar volumul cel mai mare la F64. Am stat până târziu aseară, după miezul nopții, ora României m-am trezit. Dimineața la 5:30 ora României eram în picioare. Aștept Black Friday-ul în fiecare an, mă pregătesc din timp pentru el, și pentru mine e un “happening”. Mă culc târziu, mă trezesc devreme, cumpăr.

How to learn communication and manipulation? The answer: “Thanks for letting your light shine”
One friend recently asked me how should he/she learn communication and manipulation. What are the best opportunities to learn this in Romania? She plans to change the world for the better.
My first answer to this will be spiritual: Nicolae Steinhardt, a writer I admire, says that people these days are hungry for two things: love and life meaning. (“De ce îi este omului de astăzi foame? De iubire și de sens.”)
My dear friend, wanting to change the world for the better with communication / manipulation aims for both two things – you want to give life a meaning, and you do so by loving others.
Hold to with this thought, now we’ll leave spirituality and go down, down below. There’s darkness, don’t worry, at the end things will be fine. Hold tight, it’s a bumpy ride.
I’ll answer this question rationally by avoiding the question so much that when I’ll finally answer your mind will be influenced by the other stories I will tell you.
Note: the image above was with me on an online forum for years, many years ago.

How to mass delete your backup photos from Google Plus (and why would you want to do that)?
TL;DR: below, a solution on how to mass delete your backup photos from Google Plus (and why would you want to do that)? I recently got into the problem of having too much data in my Google Drive. You know the situation – you add some things in your Google account, and, at some point, you have so much data in there that you are required to pay for a premium account. I wouldn’t generally mind to do so, but I prefer to pay when I choose to, not when I’m forced to. The 2 USD / month for 100 GB / year is a tempting one, but there are alternatives which are free, and after one year of usage, it’s generally hard to switch. To understand my problem, see the below graph, which shows my current space usage on Gmail: I used to have around 2-3 GB more in my Gmail and 5 GB more on Google Drive. For Gmail, it was simple. Using some search parameters, I just searched for Google Calendar appointment emails, newsletters, and emails with attachments sent within some timeframe. I then mass deleted emails. Simple. For Google Photos, the main issue was that I have in there a few hundred albums and most of them should have photos stored at the “right” image size, which is, according to Google, 2048 x 2048 pixels. So, I tested, randomly, some folders in there, and couldn’t find the albums which, supposedly, had images with bigger resolution than these. Then, I’ve found a …
