life goes on ... eVrovision ...

my friend said i'm a hypocrit, not that he thinks so,
i call it openmindness, but probably i'm just getting old...

so eurovision was a surprise this year (2009), there were many nice songs :
1. Patricia Kaas : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1oxY6_qKBg
2. Sandra Nurmsalu : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NF24kGXudpk&feature=related
... and some others, but these i liked the most ...

wish you a good night All.

yeah, i'm just getting old.
getting old is not bad it is just complicated.
the question about life is : are we shaping the world or is the world shaping us ?

i will give you all,
if only this is what you want,
until there is nothing to give,
until there is nothing to do.
until the shades of my existence will fade away ...
and when we are all gone, will somebody remember ?
we'll they say we won the battle with evil,
or did evil win, and we did nothing ?

what excuse do we have to stay and lie down in the luxury of our life,
and expect things to be given and newspapers delivered ?
are these the right news or just the one we need to continue with our living ?
and piece by piece we build the puzzle of our life,
strung through the present and dreaming about the future,
trying to forget the shameful past.

so many questions so little time... (until 21.12.12)

will i be able to educate the feeling of beauty in my children, as i was educated,
will i be able to offer at least the same i was offered ?

fight, shape urself and the world around you ...

change urself and others will follow ...

if i had the time to change the world, then the world could change me,
but i have only the time to change myself and hope that the world will follow ...

Many thanks to Nicola Tesla for the world we are living now ...
Many thanks to Albert Einstein for understanding the untouchable ...
Many thanks to Steven Hawking for he proved us all that he is the strongest in the whole world, for the power of the spirit can not be stopped by the walls, and the walls will break where spirit will touch.
Many thanks to V for the Idea, and the truth he taught us, that the idea is strong, and the bullets cant kill the idea, and in the end the Idea will kick many bastards ass, and all these scums will be buried under the history's sand, but the idea will live in our hearts, for what we are, for what it is ...

wish you a strong spirit.

My life and eBay ...

ah ebay, the next best thing ...

so many interesting things to have
(but wait Buddha said that wanting things is bad...)

anyway it is been 1 month since i am browsing eBay, and the only thing i can say is that i have seen many interesting things there. (eBay is one of the reasons i want posting my blog since 3 months)

Really i get the feeling that eBay brings the people together (or maybe it is a gambler's addiction). Anyway i just want to say that i have bid, and that i will bid more in the future.

So what i have learned :

On eBay you can find items that you cant find any other way.

There are people that make their living on eBay.

You must have a strategy to do the bids (some people are bidding in the last 1-5 seconds and they take the bid away from you).

You must be patient the items to arrive to you.

Anyway on eBay you can get a good deal or you can "get f***ed at the used car lounge".

more about eBay soon ...

Migration, imigrants and foreign countries ...

Long time didn't blog. And now here I am, concerned about complicated things. I am a software developer that know little about many things and that doesn't know how to sell my time and my abilities. I am now an immigrant in Cyprus, and while i am being here i am treated as an immigrant that steals somebody-else's job, and at home, the country where i from (Moldova), I am not treated like a person either. The European people look at people from my country like to people from "the poorest country of Europe". So there is little to say after words like this. I wish the situation was different, I wish we had normal people in the head of our country, but sadly the truth is bitter. We (the people of Moldova) are being pushed like cattle :
  • Our government : makes our life miserable, by pretending that they are working for the people, but in the fact they do use people's money for their own good. They pretend to fight organized crime by organizing even a better crime institute that is legal and there is no justice to fight with it, everybody is involved.
  • Romania : don't really likes Moldova because we don't dislike so much Russia for what it is, we don't dislike them so much because the ordinary people from Russia, they too are victims of the dictator regime that is being developed now there, they suffered in the passed and they will suffer from the lack of democracy.
  • Russia : calls us nationalists, historically 70% of all people from Moldova are Romanians, also there are Romanians in Ukraine (North of Moldova and South). There are also Russians, Ukrainians, and other minorities. Basically the Russians came here in 1940, when the soviet union fought the World War 2, and many locals where moved to Siberia (especially the wealthy ones, and the ones that had access to good education in that time). So the Russians took their place and became the rulers of this land. Also to note that the Russians that came were not the most educated Russians of their time, it was just their government offered good relocation deals to them. So we are called by Russians nationalists because we want to learn the language the traditions of our people. And we have to feel a minority in our own country. That is sad.
  • Europe and the West : ah the West, always so democratic and fair, and yet only fair and democratic to itself. And we feel this each time we want a visa to some west country. As i said before we are considered as the people of the poorest country in Europe by the West. And there is nothing else to say, probably we didn't deserved more respect from them until now.
So all mentioned above dislike the people from Moldova, yet Russia has work for us, Romania has work for us, Europe has work for us and our government uses the money made abroad by the people that are forced to find work abroad. And I'm just talking about work, I'm not saying what kind. Everybody is happy to have Moldova "the poorest country of Europe". I want to speak the language i grew up with. I want to have friends that speak the same language. I want my children to speak the same language as me. Is this so much to ask from a democratic world. I can speak and write in English, Russian and Romanian; also to speak in French, a bunch of other computer languages too, yet i am not a person in this world, because i don't come from a normal country, a country that respects its people. That is sad cause there a people that deserve to be respected in that country (and some people fade away without the much deserved respect). And in the light of the last events in Moldova, i understand there is no "my country" anymore. They have stolen our country from Us. All the people from Moldova, are people with no country, the sad part is that the people in the country they don't understand this. They are feed with useless information each day from the Government, the information sources for masses are not available, so we are doomed to crawl until the end of our miserable lives. God help us in this battle with the evil. So is there any way to feel a person here in this world, and now ? Complicated issue is this, and while i have no answer i could tell that, you have to learn, share your knowledge with others, become a personality, and then other people will respect you for what you are and not where you come from. Have a nice day children of the world, all of you. :)

Tribute to Isaac Asimov

In last 6 months i read a little less than 10 of his books :
The foundation series ( 7 books ), The Gods Themselves ...
The series explain how the human society can be simulated with mathematics : it just takes a lot of time to define the rules, patterns, and the initial values. Than the society is easily simulated more or less. In the end the author tells us that it is able to simulate it less cause : if we already live in a simulation then every simulation that we create and is less than the initial simulation will not be a complete simulation. Anyway all our deeds are logged, and everything is remembered. And we are controlled. So how will they control my wishes you say ? They already do : advertising. This is a multi billion business (and science) that is designed to control the masses wishes. The simulation is here to stay. Probably in the simulation there are some unconscious factors that are somehow genetically controlled and that are the reason our life is limited to 75 years.
To break free from the simulation : this is not a new trend (it is marketed for at least 50 years) or maybe I'm wrong.
So the question is : are there intelligent creatures on the moon that spy on our lives and experiment on us ?
So who are we? Are we really personalities or not ? Well i'm afraid i am not the personality i wished i was.
It is strange how people live their lives in content. Somehow i cannot find the peace in me. I wish i could did more, yet i cannot do it. I don't have the control on me to do the things i would like to do. I always knew what i should do, or what i could do, i just didn't dare enough. How to win this battle ? How do people win this battle. What can i say to the world ? More question than answers.
Anyway the way Asimov wrote is just amazing, beautiful mind is the expression. Here you can find more if you wish http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Asimov. If you ever decide to read something don't hesitate, and even if you don't you should still read him, try "The end of Eternity", very romantic.
When i read things like this i understand that the human mind is a beautiful thing and in life there is more than greed, corruption, war, hate, misunderstanding, disbelief, and greed again. Let's read of the better world so can build it. Good people wrote good books that deserved to be read, they spend their lives in imagining a better world, a world that can be built, we still have the power to participate at its building. Wish you all the best luck in making you life the way you want and to succeed.
right thinking, right talking and right doing.
start today so you can enjoy tomorrow.

GCC: linking with static and dynamic libraries

How to link compile with static and dynamic libraries :
