Gräfin Mariza - best memories of my life
I was lucky enough in my life to see the following wonderfull performance in Wien city "Gräfin Mariza" by "Volksoper" in 2006.
I spent a lot of time searching for this or similar performance in Net, but no success - only much weaker alternatives performed by others... and finally today I discovered one, which is extremly close to what was happening back in 2006 and so can share that with You
and
Other fragments are here and here.
All parts can be found by the person who kindly uploaded them to youtube: here at the right hand.

Popularity of programming languages
Have a problem to pick up a programming language to learn?
First of all decide, what area you are most interested in (embedded dev: C, C++; commercial: Java, C#, VB, PHP etc; Logical: LISP etc) and then follow the programming languages popularity chart below (which was compiled by TIOBE Software).

The more a language is in use the higher the probability you will find a workplace if you know it.
As usually there is an exception for persons who are smart and brave enough to follow it: the less a language is common (spread among devs) the higher salary gets the persons who knows it... but there is a high risk that you will not find a company interested in hiring you (especially in such a small country like EE)

PS: Ideally you should know 2-3 language from TOP-10.
although you are likely to be a professional in only one of them using it constantly.

A problem of choice
There is a well known statement on selecting something among alternatives
The more alike two items are the more complex it is to choose one of them .... although the actual cost of been wrong is minimal in this case.
Initially I like this statement since it seemed to be exactly correct... but after some thinking I disliked it too since I felt it is incorrect as well.
Now, I believe I should reformulate it into
The more alike two items seems to be the more complex it is to choose one of them. [full stop]
Comment: I thing the catch in the original statement: you actually feel that items are not similar, otherwise you would simply select one of those... but you just have not enough information to distinguish those items by pros and contras.
