      controllable by keys/buttons effectively
    • optimised for low traffic,
      having low hardware requirements,
      suitable for mobile and unusual devices
    • working also without JS
      (using JS & AJAX for better ergonomics; not demanding them)
    • using „em“, „%“ and another relative units in CSS;
      forcing not sizes in pixels to users‘ devices

  • www.adamek.cz/en/web-apps ⧉ (https://www.adamek.cz/en/web-apps/)

 
I design a structure of relational SQL database, structure of URLs, architecture of application.
My way of structure designing is open for future improvements and extensions (for new modules, functionalities, configuration, …) – flexible and scalable.
I like when website / web application has additional functionalities and possibilities of configuration.
 

I implement an application or website using .htaccess (mod rewrite, …), database MySQL / MariaDB, PHP, HTML5 (formerly XHTML), CSS3, JS (JavaScript) and AJAX; RSS and XML.
I like the PHP and its evolution (trend). The same for CSS.

Programming experience

  • Since 1994:   Programming
  • Since 1998:   Making of responsive accessible static websites
  • Since 2008:   Programming of dynamic websites and web applications in PHP

Years of practice have teached me that a warning can be future error.
I am trying to prevent warnings and notices.

    • Bez odlišení jazyka obsahu; tím se liší od webu – v obou jazycích uživatelského rozhraní se na blogu zobrazuje stejný text.
      Vyplynulo ze zadání; většina článků je dvojjazyčná přímo v textu, z podstaty tématu;
      cílem jednoduché rychlé vkládání článku, jako na sociální síť, ale bez sociální sítě,
      pro zvýšení frekvence publikace nového obsahu, pro snadnější publikaci než na robustním vícejazyčném webu.

      • Při blackoutu, při povodních, po vichřici, při bouřce:
        Při nedostupnosti pevného rychlého internetu (WiFi / WAN) a nedostupnosti některých BTS:
        Přetížení zbývajících funkčních BTS; data extrémně pomalá, příp. jen Edge
      • Takto naprogramováno už dříve;
        následně při povodních 09/2024 na Broumovsku a výpadku elektřiny / pevného WiFi WAN internetu / některých BTS se web osvědčil,
        a prostřednictvím extrémně přetížené BTS jediného operátora, jediné funkční v daném místě, se přes Edge někdy úspěšně načítal:
    • Import dat z RSS výstupů evropského systému Meteoalarm;
      zobrazení informace, zda import proběhl úspěšně, nebo zda nastala nějaká chyba.

Scale of language knowledge levels

by European Framework of Reference (CEFR, CEF, CEFRL) ⧉ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_European_Framework_of_Reference_for_Languages):

A1 < A2   <   B1 < B2   <   C1 < C2

Where A1 is the worst (lowest) level of the knowledge;
and C2 is the best (highest) level of the knowledge.
 

My own(!) unofficial(!) definition of these levels:

  • I consider levels A as suitable for tourism and travelling,
    possibly for mid-term staying or short-term living,
    and also for unskilled and low-skilled work.
  • I consider levels B as suitable for long-term staying and long-term living
    and also for highly skilled work.
  • I consider levels C as suitable for providing of professional language services related to that language
    and possibly also for work with very high responsibility with risk of very serious damage,
    e. g. highly skilled work related to a health and a life.

  1. Czech language
    🇨🇿

    • Native speaker – mother tongue
      plus above-average knowledge
       

    • Study of Czech language teaching for Czech secondary schools:

      (study programme „Pedagogy for high schools”)
       
      I studied Czech at the Faculty of Education at the University of Hradec Králové
      as a side activity at the turn of my Master's and Doctoral studies in computer science, my main field of study at the neighbouring faculty.
       
      During the two years I completed my own selection of subjects from about three years of study,
      so I only completed some of the subjects;
      but those subjects, that I completed and which were ended with an exam, I finished with the best grades (excellent).
       
      In this way I concentrated effectively on the exact linguistic subjects
      (which are about knowing what the author wants to say),
      from which I learned what there was to learn,
      and, conversely, I neglected the artistic literary subjects
      (which are about not knowing what the author wants to say).

Professional pop concert:
Local Stagehand

  • Private concert by a well-known professional Czech pop music group
    during a corporate weekend stay at a hotel resort
    organised for a major Czech company in Kudowa-Zdrój, Poland
  • Helping physically with moving technical equipment from vehicles into the hall during concert setup; then from the hall to backstage before the concert (empty transport crates); and after the concert, helping to pack everything back.
    First of all, it was an interesting insight into the technical and overall organisational backstage of such an event.
