These are social networking sites aimed at finding work for users and help recruiters to select the best candidates. The main source s of income are sold services and tools for recruiters. If you want to learn more don't hesitate to check the pages www.goldenline.pl and www.linkedin.com http://epromocja.pl/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/LinkedInAudit.jpeg Ok, so we have two similar sites, with a similar business strategy, but there is one international and one local. LinkedIn has 277 million registered users and GoldenLine only one and a half. LinkedIn annual revenue counted in billions ( https://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE:LNKD&fstype=ii ), the Polish website has several million (statistics shown at the conference “Aula Polska” by Karol Traczy

T he question is how ? Most will say that on the Internet. Because it is cheap, fast and the content goes to the masses. This is a great way but the Internet has its own rules ;). To encourage you to read the rest of the post and smoothly complete the introduction, watch this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRCZ7WaK6bY I hope that noone is working in this company, and I will not be lynched. I wanted to use this example because it is heavily overdraw n . Well, now I have a problem. Apparently the movie inspires laughter but I already watched it at least 8 times. And maybe that the author meant? “It doesn't matter what people say about you, as long as they're talking about you.” Not only have I seen it but over two hundred thousand people. C ould it be intentional? To further illustrate the power of the previous movie t ake a look at this: In my opinion it is perfect, short, funny, focused on goal. But let&

Recently I visited a few offices. Small or large, old or modern, stimulating creativity or overpowering. I decided to look for more good and bad examples on the internet. I began to wonder what an awesome office should have. I won't write that great people are needed because everyone knows about it. I would like to focus only on tangible things. Different people, different needs, and this is what office should include . Some people need places to work in total silence, in solitude, some people have to work in a group. As I mentioned groups, it is worth noting that each department operates i n its own specific way. Traders still talk on the phone, graphic designers look for inspiration, developers need enclosed spaces, recruiters have mass meetings. And so on and so forth. I'll show a few companies, which in my opinion reached the goal. 1.  Trivago - they have great relaxation rooms: http://blog.goldenline.pl/wp-conten

The Raspberry Pi is a very versatile device. It can be fiddled with in a lot of ways. People have made truly amazing things with it. I've also tried. My solution isn't as outstanding as the ones found on the Internet but I still think it's a nice configuration and proof that it can be modified to very specific requirements. This is my current configuration. Unfortunately, I don't have a case for the Pi yet. I have bought almost everything from The Pi Hut . Since I don’t own a screen with an HDMI output and I don’t have a keyboard, I connected to the Raspberry over the network using my laptop (this method is called headless access). I’ve heavily modified my Pi's software since I started messing around with it. I run several different tasks on it: backup, storage, source code versioning and a few more. The great thing is I can always repurpose it to do something else. I've used a NAS (Network Attached Storage) before and had to accept all its quirks and f

Small computers, while not fully functional out-of-the-box and not as easy to setup as their closed, single purpose counterparts, allow for the realisation of some very interesting and different projects. I've already written about the Raspberry Pi, what it is and why it was created. This time I will show what it's capable of doing. Gaming Although this is a very small device, it does have hardware acceleration built-in. For a long time however, the drivers were closed source so performance wasn't too good. That is now changing . Quake 3 has been ported to the Pi successfully. Minecraft can run on the Pi also!. There can also be found heavier, hardware modifications of the computer. Ben Heck managed to squeeze a Pi into a small enclosure along with a monitor and a few buttons and make it into a portable gaming device. It can run retro games using an emulator and has appeared at various shows. Portable Pi. Source: http://www.recantha.co.uk/blog/?p=4530 Secon

The idea of creating a tiny computer for kids appeared in 2006. Eben Upton, Rob Mullins, Jack Lang and Alan Mycroft at Cambridge Computer Laboratory saw a major decline in the number and skills of students applying to the school for computer science courses. They knew how to edit documents in Word and Excel, did some web development but not much else. Most had very basic experience with programming, far less than the kids from the 1990s. This situation is not only bad for schools but in the long run also tragic for the industry. Children that had computers back then knew at least a few lines of code needed to use their Commodore 64s or ZX Spectrums. Today, computers bought by parents are expensive and multi-purpose, so messing around with them is too risky. They are programmable but the tools are hidden from the user. They can be downloaded and installed often in a few minutes but even that is usually too much of a barrier to start. The programmer has to search for them and for any tut
