[en] Summer wish challenge

Manuel R. Ciosici — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 10:10:37 +0000

It's summer, school break, some more relaxing, it seems to me like a good time to do some planning for the next 12 months. So here's what I thought of: I'll decide on 5 things that I want to do until next summer, I'll write them down here and then challenge 3 or 4 people [...]

Manuel R. Ciosici — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 10:47:40 +0000

I'm writing this short post to let everyone know that the Student Council in the academy has posted information about the intro week activities we have planned for the new students and the intro trip. The trip is going to be awesome as the council has planned all kinds of games, activities and a party. [...]

[ro] Redesign pentru automatele de bilete de tramvai Arad

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 10:59:27 +0000

În recenta mea vizită în Arad am observat că în multe stații de tramvai sunt prezente automate pentru achiziționarea biletelor. Am fost foarte fericit să văd automatele și să număr rapid pe degete avantajele pe care le aduc: biletele se vând 24 / 7 ceea ce înseamnă mai multe bilete și mai puține scuze pentru [...]

[en] My trip to Romania – part 1 – Getting there

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 13:43:25 +0000

It's about time I wrote about my trip to Romania, so here it goes! I fell asleep at about half past one, woke up at half past two, left the house at 40 past 3 and walked to the train station. The walk was nothing special and neither was getting on the InterCity Lyn for [...]

[en] Travelling again

Manuel R. Ciosici — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 15:11:28 +0000

I'm leaving Romania tonight and I couldn't be happier to do so. The main reason is the heat here which I'm apparently not used to anymore. Also it seems it has paid a role in my not feeling well at all these days. I hope I'll have a non eventful journey back to Denmark and [...]

[ro] Eu când vreau să fluier, fluier

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 22:00:50 +0000

Știam de film de ceva vreme și azi mi-am făcut timp să-l văd. După mulțimea de filme românești din ultima vreme toate filmate în același stil (și pe cam aceleași câmpii sudice foarte foarte calde) evident nu am rămas impresionat de decor. Stilul de filmat și monaj e cam aceleași, deci nimic impresionant acolo. Povestea [...]

[en] About time

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 00:39:58 +0000

I think it's interesting how people always get nostalgic about the past. No matter how bad the times were, the human mind seems to want to always remember the good things and record them in better good light. Thinking a bit about the recent history here's how it looks in my mind: the 2000s were [...]

[en] Scotland

Manuel R. Ciosici — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:58:30 +0000

I got the chance during last week to go to Scotland and visit Ioanid while helping his friend Igor develop an iPhone app. It has been an exciting journey in a place with a many of differences from the Denmark I got quite used to. It was a bit weird at first to see buildings [...]

Manuel R. Ciosici — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 09:57:01 +0000

While I was cleaning the home desktop the other day I stumbled upon lots of old documents, photos and videos that I had made. Among those was this poem I wrote on 21 of September 2006 at 23 hours: I tried to listen to music, but it was all hard rock. I went for a [...]

[en] The devilish 2000 with a tail

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sat, 02 Jan 2010 11:53:54 +0000

The post you are about to read was intended to be finished and published a few minutes before 1 Jan 2010. I have not succeed in that matter. As the time approaches 24 hours I will succumb to the social tradition of reviewing my doings in this year and think of what I want to [...]

[en] New old things

Manuel R. Ciosici — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 19:10:29 +0000

Since I've been back home I've discovered (and redescovered) lots of things. One of those things is a paper I wrote on Star Trek last year. I think I tried to post it on my blog some other time, but anywho, I've uploaded it to slideshare so you can find it at: http://www.slideshare.net/manuelciosici/short-introduction-into-the-star-trek-universe-2745359 Share on [...]

[en] Using php on your Ubuntu to get the TED talks

Manuel R. Ciosici — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 11:53:49 +0000

Intro Anyone who knows me a little knows I'm a big fan of the presentations on TED.com. I watch them, adore them, I learn from them and I try to imitate the techniques of good speakers there. My Google Reader is subscribed to the RSS feed of ted.com and I download almost every presentation from [...]

[en] Danish branded water

Manuel R. Ciosici — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 10:06:26 +0000

I've noticed something interesting in this country: people like to brand water. Although it seems a little stupid in the beginning, I think it's a good marketing trick. I've seen branded water at banks, at the Student House, at a museum and at my school. Share on Facebook

[en] The things I hate about fronter

Manuel R. Ciosici — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 20:03:05 +0000

I keep having problems when I try to use my school's Virtual Learning System based on fronter, so I thought instead of getting pissed off all the time I might just write all my non likes in here. Maybe, a very distant maybe, some fronter developer stumbles upon them and decides they're worthy to take [...]

[en] Ubuntu 9.10

Manuel R. Ciosici — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:11:01 +0000

The new version of Ubuntu was released a bit over a week ago. I've been running it since the Release Candidate and after the official launch I felt the need to completely reinstall it on my computer (wanted ext4 ). Describing Ubuntu 9.10 in 2 words: it's great. I love the improved notification system and [...]

Într-adevăr nu am prea avut timp / energie să mai povestesc ce se întâmplă pe aici. Așa că acum o să încerc să mă revanșez față de cei cărora le-am promis niște detalii pe blog. 27 august Joi, 27 august, am început școala cu două zile introductive concepute în așa fel încât să adune împreună [...]

[ro] Danemarca

Manuel R. Ciosici — Thu, 20 Aug 2009 20:59:50 +0000

Am ajuns în Danmarca ieri și primul lucru care m-a uimit a fost numărul mare de biciclete parcate lângă gară. M-a uimit din două motive: în primul rând în Românica nu vezi atâtea biciclete într-un loc decât dacă e vorba de vreo activitate ciclistă și al doilea din cauză că erau atâtea biciclete parcate lângă [...]
