Critica ratiunii emotionale II - Mencken  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Azi e ziua patriei, dar cum ii spuneam lui Krossfire intr-un comentariu, prefer o zi rationala uneia nationale. Oricum, el explica tare bine cam tot ce-i de explicat, iar eu n-as putea decat sa repet urarea veche. Continui aici discutia emotie vs. logica, inceputa in cu Colbert si Adeveria.

Youth, Stupidity and Marin Preda  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,

For the longest time I've been meaning to write an article about how youth is not a virtue in itself, but a time when you're actually pretty dumb, and though in your older age you might look back with regret, that does not (or should not) make youngsters gods.

Copyright, proprietate intelectuala si capitalism  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Vorbesc de tare mult timp despre o dezbatere cu si despre proprietatea intelectuala si copira(i)tul la romani. O astfel de dezbatere a fost gazduita si de Economist in sectiunea lor de dezbateri si-a iesit tare faina, dar a avut loc mai putin in blogo.ro-oaie. In acest prim articol voi mentiona cateva din argumentele vehiculate in aceasta dezbatere si voi incerca sa evit cateva “cai gresite”.

Google = DMV online

Google thinks that my article on Kegel Exercises makes the Also Sprach Zamolxis blog unsuitable for AdSense because of mature / adult / pornographic content. I am mad as hell.

MH17, again  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , , , ,

Discussing the tragedy is inescapable. I had started doing this a few days ago, focusing mostly on Andrei Anghel, but didn’t have the time to say all that I wanted to say, which is why I’m continuing here.

Zamolxis guide to Herta Müller I  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , , , ,

I am EXTATIC!!!! N-am auzit de ea inainte sa fi castigat premiul Nobel, cum n-auzisem nici de francezul care a castigat in 2008, dar cu cat citesc mai mult, cu atat ma excit mai tare! E musai s-mpartasesc ce aflu cu cei 2-3 oameni care ma citesc, poate iau si eu un Hertzer sau un BlogIdol. Voi incepe sa scriu acest ghid prin a face mai mult spatiu sub birou.

EU debating RO, or oil and bananas

The recent debate of Romanian politics in the European Parliament was the grotesque conclusion to this summer of our disco tent.

Adriana Oprea's writing privileges should be revoked  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , , ,

I have recently read an opinion by some “journo” in a tabloid on how anonymous SIM cards should be sold no more (i.e., make them available only to those producing ID). I argue that the writing privileges of this person should be suspended.

9/11, Partizanat or Partisanship: R U Happy, Basescu?  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , ,

Extreme division in the public opinion is not new and is not common only to Romania. What is special about our situation is how ludicrous and paranoid their claims are. In this article commenced long ago, we look at how “tunnel vision” and “excessive focus” ruins politics, and implicitly, electorates who fail to censor the politicians who succumb to it.

Top 40 – cele mai memorabile video clipuri (muzica)  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in

(Multiple Artists) - Uk Top 40 Oct 2005Cateodata  am chef sa ma uit la clipuri de muzica, dar nu orice. Cele mai tari, cele mai populare, cele mai vizionate si top of the charts nu ma reprezinta intotdeauna, nu-mi regasesc gusturile in ele. Iata de ce aceste 40-45 clipuri ma incanta – raman cu tine o vreme..

Cenzura ISP si net.neutrality  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in , , ,

Citeam recent intr-un articol, printre multe altele, ca cel putin un ISP romanesc are clauze contractuale de blocare a site-urilor care-l critica. Recent, pana si Google a luat pozitie (iar) in dezbaterea pe tema "neutralitatii net-ului".
