Advice for PMs 9 [ funny :) ]

  • No project has ever finished on time, within budget, to requirement.
  • Yours won't be the first to.
  • Activity is not achievement.
  • Managing IT people is like herding cats.
  • If you don't know how to do a task, start it, then ten people who know less than you will tell you how to do it.

Topul facultatilor fara restante la Biblioteca Academiei!

S-a realizat topul facultatilor restantiere la Biblioteca Academiei. Numai ca pe primul loc nu se situeaza facultatea cu cei mai multi restantieri, ci cu cei mai putini. Si care e facultatea? Ati ghicit, AC, facultatea mea. FELICITARI!

Cum am ajuns sa-mi pese? Pardon, sa aflu. A trebuit sa-mi fac fisa de lichdare (pentru eliberarea diplomei de la facultate). Si pe acea fisa trebuie sa ai stampilele tuturor bibliotecilor universitare din Iasi. Fie ca ai avut sau nu vreodata permis la ele, sampila este pentru studentii care au absolvit cum a fost "lana de aur" pentru Iason. In 4 din cele 5 biblioteci in care am ajuns, numele meu a fost cautat cu ajutorul unui computer. Si daca tot veni vorba, presupun ca baza de date e inca Access 97, pentru ca alta care sa aiba un proces de sincronizare mai dureros nu stiu :P La ultima biblioteca insa, fiind a Academiei, numele nu mi-a fost cautat nicaieri. Un functionar a aruncat un ochi pe fisa mea, a intors-o pe verso si a aplicat stampila.

Cum android nu parea sa fie, am presupus ca a citit numele facultatii pe cerere, de unde si concluzia. Deci, felicitari!  =))

Tips and Tricks - IIS vs Cassini

Anonymous acces is IIS equals access with the IUSR_[Server_Name] user credentials.

Cassini, unlike IIS, does not support anonymous use - so Cassini will use the Windows user account that is currently running Visual Sudio. That is why sometimes, if you use Cassini, you may find that, when deployed, the web aplication does not behave the way you expected it to.

"The way I see it"

The good life is the middle way between ambition and compassion,

between action and reflection,

between company and solitude,

between hedonism and abstinence,

between passion and judgment,

between a cup of coffee and a glass of wine...

 [de la Miruna]
