Power

Crusty Da Klown - Flower Power

What is “power”?

I think “power” refers to having the strength to do what you consider “good”. It’s not easy at all.

It might look that a person who has a tattoo is brave – they resisted the pain of the procedure.

But what about the power and discipline of a person who keeps their skin clean of tattoos all of their life? I think this is a better way of displaying power.

One important power in life is to resist the pleasure of hate. Hate is easy – all you need to do is be angry, upset, and resentful.

I don’t think that anger, sadness, being upset, and being resentful are good resource states, most of the time.

At times, it might be helpful to be angry, but most of the time, this brings no value.

CALLEA

Maria CALLAS – OANA PELLEA | Opera Națională București https://operanb.ro/spectacol/callas/

It looks like a predestined name:

CALLAS

PELLEA

Just by looking at these two names, you see similarities.

I’ve seen CALLAS – OANA PELLEA | Opera Națională București.

Like in Saving Mr. Banks (2013), in the first part of the performance the main character is very rigid and strict.

In the second part, emotions arise.

I enjoyed the play.

Do I recommend it? Yes, I do. I don’t think it’s extraordinary, but it’s higher than average.

I liked the interpretation of Maria Callas: Oana Pellea – invitată.

Also, I liked Tony: Alexandru Nagy – invitat.

I enjoyed it.

 

Interpreți:
Maria Callas: Oana Pelleainvitată
Sophie: Ana Stamateinvitată
Tony: Alexandru Nagyinvitat
Sharon: Cătălina Sima
Manny: Alexandru Burcăinvitat
Mașinistul: Adrian Ban – invitat

Auto Shazam

Musicalul "The Sound of Music"

I agree with this assertion:
“Just gotta say the auto-shazam is such an underrated feature.”

What does it do?

Let’s say you go to an event like a party where there is lots of music, or you go out to a cafe and there is music, or you go to a theater play (note – this might not adhere to the theater’s rules). You just hit Auto Shazam, and at the end of the event, you have a list of the songs that played during that time.

How do you use it?

  1. Open the Shazam app.
  2. Tap and hold the Shazam button on the screen.

If you have an iPhone, you can long-press the app on the main screen.

AI and human jobs

Follow-up: Conferința GPeC – GPeC SUMMIT. Ediție Aniversară – 20 de ani de GPeC (2025.05.27, TNB)

(I got this idea from a recent GPeC conference)

Regarding the topic of AI’s influence on jobs, marketing can, in simple terms, be divided into three categories:

  1. (takes little time and effort) The creative side (strategy and ideation);
  2. (takes more time and effort) Production and analysis (which support the creative side);
  3. Marketing technology and operational marketing.

AI will simplify the Production and Analysis part. Yes, there will be people who lose their jobs.

But what will companies do with the savings, given that every player in the market will have access to the cost reductions in category b.?

Smart companies will take those resources and invest them in a. and/or c.

That’s why you should be optimistic about the future of marketing and AI.

You can work from anywhere! Everywhere is a good working space

New desk in new apartment!

I think that the assertion: “You work with the Internet, therefore you can work from anywhere!” is only half-true.

Allow me to explain myself.

There are three major ways of working online:

  • From a mobile phone; (a tablet is generally similar to this, although closer to a laptop)
  • From a laptop;
  • From a desktop computer; (it can run different operating systems – Linux/Windows/MacOS)

Generally, on a mobile phone you can do communication and basic browsing. You don’t have all the features of a desktop browser, and you are also unproductive. Working with Word documents or Excel files, while not 100% impossible, is difficult.
