If you’re using Windows and you have some projects synced with SVN, you could have sometimes the need to remove the folder’s SVN references. This can be done in Windows Explorer by browsing and removing all the .svn subfolders, but if your folder has many subfolders, you’ll have a lot of work to do. There’s [...]

Because MySQL became one of the most used database engine in the world and because of the ease of development in PHP with MySQL, most of the prototype application can be developed at first using this combination (PHP+MySQL). But then, mainly because of performance issues, one might want to implement that project in C – [...]

1. I am using bash [...]

Despre prietenii…
despre-prietenii

February 4, 2010

Citeam acum pe blogul unei cunoștințe că “N-am avut niciodata mulţi prieteni. Doar multe cunoştinţe“. Și asta mi-a completat revelația pe care am avut-o în urma unor discuții mai sincere cu cei pe care îi încadram în categoria prietenilor (și încă o fac). Mi-am dat seama că de fapt termenii de prieten și cunoștință nu [...]

January 28, 2010

When using AJAX, there is a cross-domain security restriction that does not allow accessing an URL with a different domain than the one of the page that contains the script (the script’s domain).

Crăciun fericit!
craciun-fericit

December 25, 2009

Probabil că sunt cuvintele cel mai des auzite şi citite zilele astea. Şi, dacă sunt spuse din toată inima, chiar ne bucură, căci exprimă bucuria naşterii, a sărbătorii, a veseliei.
Dar… ce este Crăciunul? Răspunsul educat ar fi ceva de genul “Crăciunul este sărbătoarea naşterii lui Iisus Hristos…” s.a.m.d. Dar dincolo de asta, ce este Crăciunul? [...]

For security reasons, I had to set all my server’s firewalls to accept connections on the SSH port (22) only from my office IP. I would have added my home IP addres in the access list, if it would have been static. But at home I have a dynamic IP so I can’t use IP-based [...]

Recently I had to connect to a VPN which was tested to work with Cisco VPN Client. The problem is that on Windows 7 x64 there is no way you can run Cisco VPN Client. Older versions just won’t work, and the latest version won’t even install (saying that there is no support for this [...]

November 21, 2009

This post is about rotating an image on a web page – that is not rotating more images (slide-showing them). It’s about rotating an image with an angle. Why would that be useful? If you want to put an image rotated by an angle on a web page, the easiest would be to make a [...]

ImageFlow on the first page

November 10, 2009

For this site I wanted to use an imageflow-type gallery on the index page. There I will upload several pictures of mine
The first thing to try was searching an already-made module for wordpress. I couldn’t find one that was the way I wanted – either they were old, not working, bulky, slow, ugly, [...]
