Grey (nope, this is not a typo)

I often have discussion with my old classmates from college about works, projects, dreams, love (ahaha)... anything! One thing that I notice is that as time goes by, many of us have to make "gray decision" regarding their job. For example, a person that works as sales have to "entertain" their potential client. We were taught in campus (literally!) that it is unethical as an engineer to accept payment ( in any kind, not just cash) beside from the party that hired him/her in one engineering job. So if a sales treat you in some lunch or karaoke, that will be unethical, but "that's the way it is".. as they said.. In the less formal sector, one that recently want to open a restaurant said that it is way too expensive to "play it clean" a.k.a pay the proper proper tax. So he "gets around it". sigh..

Now I'm still in campus, so I pretty much "sterile" from such exposure. But that gets me worry, when my time come, can I do something different, not just the usual "the way it is" thing?

I surely hope I can.. and I hope I will have support when the time comes, because it surely won't be easy.

Inspiring people

I found this link from a mailing list:
http://edition.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cnn.heroes/archive09/index.html

It's about CNN heroes - ordinary people with extraordinary impact *loves the punchline*. All of them have many inspiring stories. And there is one Indonesia among the list too! Check his story here.

The people there are divided into several categories. Among them one made me thinking, deep: YOUNG WONDER - Outstanding achievement by a person 25 or under.
You see, in less than two months i will be 23. That's two years before 25. So, what can I do in that period? Will I ever have my "outstanding achievement"? It also reminded me that a friend once told me that my name means "inspiration" in English.



Well, I guess I have to try harder.

Ironi Perubahan

Saya baru beli sebuah buku, judulnya Hot, Flat, and Crowded (aahh,, senangnya punya uang sendiri :D). Baru baca bab satu sih, namanya juga baru beli kemarin. Tapi di bab satu ini saya menemukan sesuatu yang cukup membuat saya tersentak.

Bab satu ini menceritakan tentang pandangan penulis terhadap negaranya, Amerika, saat ini. Intinya sih, Amerika masih nomer satu, tapi saat ini berada di jalur yang salah. Lalu dia menulis:

Kalau kita ingin semuanya tetap seperti ini, banyak sekali yang harus kita ubah.



Well well, lalu bagaimana dengan kita, yang jelas-jelas tidak ingin begini terus?

membuat tujuan besar untuk mengecilkan rasa sepi ternyata tidak sehat.


dikutip bebas dari milis alumni TF. sepakat.

Prisoner's Dilemma

Halo pembaca sekalian! hehe, sudah lama saya tidak bikin post. Sebenernya sudah ada beberapa draft setengah jadi di dashboard blogger saya, tapi entah kenapa saya sudah kehilangan minat untuk menulis saat mau melanjutkan, jadi untuk sekarang saya akan menulis post kali ini sekaligus! Eh lebaran dulu ya, maafin saya kalau ada kesalahan :D

Di libur lebaran kemarin saya sempat membaca beberapa buku. Salah satu di antaranya adalah "Radikal itu Menjual" . Buku ini mencoba menjelaskan kenapa budaya tanding (counter culture, budaya anti mainstream) gagal membawa perubahan signifikan di dunia ini. Di buku itu disebutkan teori Prisoner's Dillema, isinya tentang kenapa kita perlu aturan di dunia ini. Teori itu kira2 seperti ini:

Ada 2 orang merampok bank, sebut saja Mawar dan Sahabat A (:P). Mereka berhasil melarikan diri, tapi polisi tahu identitas mereka. Mereka dikenal sebagai penjual minuman keras. Jadi polisi menyerbu tempat tinggal mereka, memungut bukti minuman, dan menahan mereka sebagai penjual minuman.

Mawar dan Sahabat A dipisahkan dalam ruang terpisah, kemudian Polisi berkata begini pada Mawar:
"Mawar, kami tahu kamu dan Sahabat A adalah perampok bank, tapi kami tidak punya bukti. Kamu akan ditahan setahun untuk penjualan minuman keras, tapi kalau kamu mau bersaksi bahwa Sahabat A adalah perampok bank, maka kamu akan dibebaskan" (hukuman untuk perampokan bank adalah 5 tahun, btw)

Mawar tentu saja (mendambakan) hukuman sekecil2nya, tapi dia berfikir, bahwa polisi juga memberi penawaran yang sama pada Sahabat A. Jadi kemungkinannya adalah:
1. Mawar bersaksi, Sahabat A tidak (hukuman: Mawar bebas, Sahabat A 6 tahun)
2. Mawar tidak bersaksi, Sahabat A tidak (hukuman: Mawar 1 tahun, Sahabat A 1 tahun)
3. Mawar bersaksi, Sahabat A bersaksi (hukuman: Mawar 5 tahun, Sahabat A 5 tahunn)
4. Mawar tidak bersaksi, Sahabat A bersaksi (hukuman: Mawar 6 tahun, Sahabat A bebas)

Bagi Mawar terlihat, apapun yang dipilih Sahabat A (baik bersaksi ataupun tidak) maka hukuman Mawar akan lebih ringan apabila Mawar bersaksi. Tapi pola pikir seperti inilah yang juga mendorong Sahabat A untuk bersaksi. Akibatnya, kemungkinan nomer 3 di atas tak terhindarkan.

Inilah dilemanya, pilihan untuk memperoleh hukuman seringan mungkin ternyata malah pasti memberikan hasil yang buruk. Sebenarnya ini terjadi karena Mawar tidak percaya sahabat A tidak akan berkhianat, dia tidak punya kontrol untuk itu. Hal ini bisa dihindarkan, bila misalnya Mawar dan Sahabat A tergabung dalam geng perampok yang punya aturan: siapa pun yang mengkhianati rekan satu geng, akan dipancung! Aturan ini terdengar brutal dan kejam, tapi itu demi kepentingan masing2 anggota. Dengan demikian, hasil yang lebih baik (dalam hal ini kemungkinan nomer dua, walaupun masing2 mengorbankan kebebasan selama 1 tahun) bisa didapat.

Itulah gunanya aturan! supaya kita percaya bahwa tiap orang mau sedikit berkorban demi mencapai kebaikan bersama.

Sekarang mari kita bawa ini ke kasus keseharian kita. Mengapa kita:
1. mau mengantri saat mengambil uang di atm?
2. sulit sekali mengantri saat mengendarai motor, atau,, katakanlah,, hendak naik busway?
Saya kira teori prisoner dilemma di atas bisa menjelaskan fenomena itu. Setujukah?


*disclaimer:
Penafsiran tentang teori ini adalah pemikiran saya sendiri, jadi kalau dirasa kurang cocok dengan yang dimaksud buku itu, harap dimaklumi :D


Ih, srius kali posting gw ini, hehe.. yah, sekali-kali gapapa lah :D

Hemat waktu online dengan RSS

Hehe, sekali-sekali ingin juga buat tulisan yang sifatnya tutorial. Here goes my first try, critics are always welcomed, but please be gentle ;)

Apa kamu punya beberapa website tutorial favorit, yang tulisan barunya selalu kamu tunggu2, tapi sayangnya tidak punya jadwal update tetap? Atau kamu tiap hari mengecek blog teman2 kamu karena tak ingin ketinggalan berita dari mereka?

Hmm,, lama2 capek juga ya memeriksa tiap saat dan belum tentu ada konten baru yang tampil. Hey2, tapi itu bisa diatasi dengan RSS!

Apa itu RSS? RSS, singkatan dari Really Simple Syndication. Gampangnya sih, RSS adalah salah satu cara bagi suatu website untuk membagi kontennya dengan pihak lain. Nah, dengan mengumpulkan konten2 web favorit kita pada satu tempat, kita tidak mesti repot2 mengunjungi satu per satu, karena tiap konten baru akan dikirimkan pada kita melalui RSS!


Untuk bisa mendapatkan kiriman RSS (biasa disebut feed) pertama, kita harus tahu, apa website yang kita inginkan menyediakan feed tersebut. Cari tulisan RSS feed atau logo seperti ini:
Biasanya itu mengacu ke link RSS feed-nya. Setelah tahu alamat feed RSS yang diikuti, kita perlu sesuatu untuk membacanya. Umum disebut RSS feed reader atau aggregator. Ada beberapa alternatif sih, tapi saya beritahukan yang saya pakai aja yak! :p Google Reader!

Untuk menggunakan reader ini pengguna perlu terdaftar (gratis), tapi kalo kamu pernah pakai service Google yang lain, misal blog dan email, akun kamu juga bisa dipakai. Oh iya, selain reader yang berbasis web seperti ini, ada juga yang versi klien mandiri.

Di sini kamu tinggal klik "add subscription" masukkan alamat feed RSS yang kamu ikuti, dan voila! Konten2 website mereka akan diantarkan ke halaman aggregator kamu. Berikut ini contoh feed reader favorit saya in action:

Ok, semoga bermanfaat, selamat mencoba! :D

okay, kalo ada komen dipersilahkan yak!

bacaan: How The Mighty Fall

Berawal dari banyaknya waktu luang gw akhir2 ini (baca: nganggur :p), gw mulai banyak baca. Nah, supaya gw gak terus2an baca manga mulu, gw mulai variasikanlah dengan sesekali baca ini. Minggu ini ada bacaan yang judulnya "How The Mighty Fall". Isinya tentang tahapan2 yang dialami sebuah perusahaan besar saat dia jatuh. Nah, buat ngetes gw nangkep apa ngga isinya, gw mu bahas ulang di sini.

Disebutkan ada 5 tahapan kejatuhan dari sebuah perusahaan besar. Untuk bisa mencapai kesimpulan ini, penulisnya katanya mempelajari lebih dari 6000 tahun sejarah perusahaan kalo digabungkan. Dan yang ngerinya, kejatuhan ini bisa saja baru terasa setelah kita berada di tahap 4! Tapi katanya, selama kita gak jatuh k tahap lima, kita masih bisa bangkit lagi. Okelah mari kita langsung bahas saja tahap2nya.

Overclocking My Athlon X2 +5000

I don't know what gotten into me yesterday. So i have this new computer for my sister:

AMD athlon X2 +5000
Motherboard MSI K9A2 Platinum (790FX Chipset)
2 GB DDR2
MSI Radeon HD 4650 512mb
SATA 160 GB HDD

Actually, it's a mainstream specification nowadays. But for all application that i had in hand (which is > 5 years old games :P) , this comp is a MONSTER! So i was very pleased with its performance. That was, until i got my eyes at PCSX2, a PS2 emulator. Got too much time to spare, i decided to tried it out. And this application is a killer! I only got 30-35 fps in game (which is about 60% of actual PS2 speed). That's when i remember my long gone obsession.. overclocking!! So i went reading some materials, and easily got my PC to run at 3.0 GHz from 2.6 GHz! Hahaha, i'm surprised! I remember tweaking my PII 450 Mhz PC and got very happy if i can squeeze every extra MHz from it. Now i easily get a whooping 400 Mhz! o boy things have changed don't they? :p

What i did just some BIOS tweak:
1. lower proccessor multiplier to 12x (original was 13x)
2. set the FSB to 250 Mhz (from 200 Mhz) so the proccesor speed = 12 x 250 Mhz = 3 GHz
3. set DDR frequency to 823 Mhz.
4. disable spread spectrum
5. done!

I ran my system all day and it was stable. Got additional 5-10 fps from PCSX2. the system idle at 45C and went to 50C if on load. Good enough from stock cooling. after that i undid the overclocking. The reason? energy saving man! :p

*whew it's been a while i don't get in touch with my geeky side :D

Hehe.. baru nonton film ini..

mayan menarik. Tentang apa ceritanya? Diilhami dari kisah nyata tim BlackJack MIT: Ben Campbell adalah seorang mahasiswa MIT brilian (yaeyalaah, MIT!) yang punya mimpi untuk lanjut ke sekolah kedokteran harvard. Sekolah di Harvard Med tuh mahal, sekitar $300k, padahal si Ben ini kaga punya duit. Tapi, karena kebrilianannya (..kata yang aneh), dia direkrut semacem tim kecil rahasia di kampusnya. Ternyata tim kecil ini punya kegiatan yang cukup "unik": tiap weekend maen blackjack di Vegas! Ups, tapi kalo cuman judi doang mah ga usah mahasiswa brilian MIT juga bisa kan? nonono.. karena yang mereka lakukan adalah menaklukan game ini dengan suatu metode penghitungan kartu. FYI: blackjack itu salah satu dari sedikit maenan kartu yang bisa ditaklukan pake pikiran, gak cuma judi doang. Gimana caranya? tonton pilem ini makanya (iklan dikit ah :p).

Hemm.. ada beberapa hal yang jadi pikiran saya nih:
1. hee?! ngapain si Ben ini?? udah lulus MIT masi mau skolah kedokteran di harvard???
2. pas awal film, diliatin adegan si Ben lagi wawancara nyari beasiswa. Walopun dia punya GPA 4.0 (omaigat!) dan lulus MCAT (semacem ujian wat mahasiswa kedokteran) dengan score 42, dia perlu sesuatu yang membuat dia lain dari yang lain. Kalo kata bahasa si pewawancara "something that dazzled me". Wowow... if 4.0 GPA doesn't make u dazzle mister... hehe.. ternyata IP emang bukan segalanya (sedikit pembenaran buat diri sendiri :p). yosh! gonna make my dazzling moment in this year! amen!
3. Ben direkrut ke tim blakjack setelah dia berhasi menjawab Monty Hall problem dari dosennya. Ini menarik loh. silakan diikuti link ini kalo mau tau :D

edited:
tambahan ah
4. Ibunya Ben sempet bilang: " u worked too hard Ben. You should squeeze some time for yourself. You only being 21 once, and that goes very fast." Hehe.. made me looked back to last year but i can say, i've done my 21 to the fullest! hehe

some punchlines!

we believe in the smell of fresh cut fairways at 6:00 AM, fast greens, and always playing for the tips. we don't believe in mulligans. we play it where it lies and concede nothing. we hit it long and our favorite numbers are always red. we are a new breed of athlete. 36 holes a day, hitting balls into the darkest hours of the night until our blisters have blisters of their own. "quiet please" is not in our vernacular. WE PLAY LOUD. WE PLAY HARD.

WE'RE PLAYING TROUGH


hehe.. above is an advertorial of oakley glasses (for golf). I dunno,, something impressed me so much to the point that i went to a local golf shop and actually buy this:

no- it's not an oakley glasses - :p
gonna try a few swings this week! :D

Indonesia 2035 - Pendahuluan

Hum, sudah lama saya tidak menulis dalam bahasa Indonesia, jadi sekarang, nulis ah!

Saya ingin berbagi tentang visi saya tentang Indonesia tahun 2035. Pertama, kenapa perlu sebuah visi? Terus terang ini cuma untuk membantu saya saja dalam merencanakan hidup. Dalam melihat sebuah masalah, saya cenderung melihat gambaran besarnya, kemudian baru mengisi detail2 kecil yang diperlukan. Haha, ini kadang menjadi suatu masalah, karena sering kali saya terlalu asyik membayangkan kemana-mana, dan malah jadi gak beranjak kemana-mana, hehe. Katanya sih saya seorang visual-spatial learner. Semoga dengan menuliskan hasil "penerawangan" saya, bisa bikin saya lebih mudah untuk merumuskan bagaimana supaya visi saya itu bisa terwujud. Seperti orang bilang, devil is in the detail, jadi mari kita mulai saja! :D

Pertama, kenapa tahun 2035? Karena pada tahun itu saya berusia 48 tahun. Saya rasa pada usia itu saya sudah pantas untuk melihat ke belakang, dan berkata.. hoo.. ini toh yang sudah saya lakukan. Ya, saya berencana untuk menjadikan usia itu sebagai patokan keberhasilan hidup saya ini. Walau tentu saja itu semua tergantung Yang Maha Kuasa. Tidak, saya tidak berencana untuk pensiun pada usia itu. Terus terang, belum terbayang oleh saya bagaimana saya akan pensiun. (ups, mulai kemana-mana nih :p). Yang jelas, pada usia itu saya bayangkan saya sudah menghabiskan usia "prima" saya, sehingga hasil karya terbaik saya seharusnya sudah bisa dilihat. Setelah lewat masa itu, apa boleh buat, sisa tenaga aja deh :p.

Jadi, visi saya untuk Indonesia 2035 adalaaah:
mampu memenuhi kebutuhan energinya secara mandiri, dengan porsi energi terbarukan lebih dari 10%!

bisakah? realistiskah? hum,, saya masih harus banyak cari tahu. Target ini bakal sering direvisi, seiring perjalanan saya mencapainya. so, stay tuned guys!

私の日本語のクラス

Title means, "My Japanese Language Class"

During the four and a half months period of my stay in Japan, i have joined a Japanese language class. There were four levels available, JA100 - JA400, with the later was the highest level. Before enrolling, students were supposed to do a placement test, but i skipped it, hehe. My friend from Indonesia, Haris, did the test and was assigned to the JA200 class. I thought, "hmm.. if he can do it, then i can". So i joined the JA200 class.

The class was a really interesting mix. There were Brazillian, French, South Koreans, Finns, Swede, Dutches, and of course, Indonesians.

Let's start with the Indonesian here. Me, Ganda, and Haris, who went together to Japan, plus Caca. Caca is an undergraduate student, like us, whose presence in Japan was to do an exchange program too, a different one from ours though. We Indonesian, were the biggest in number in class, but remained low in profile. Well,,, was it just our humble culture? Well, actually, i wanted to make some scene, but i was already struggled only to keep up with the class's pace, hahaha.

Next is the Koreans. There were three Korean: Bun, Rhee, and Park. Bun was an undergraduate whose major was hotel managerial. I really liked this guy. He was modest, despite his Japanese was the best in class. Rhee was a girl, shy but quite cute. Park, hoho, this guy was funny, and the loudest in class. I think the Koreans were topping our class.

Julian, Xandra, and Ewout are the netherlanders. Julias seem to be the most eager to learn Japanese. Xandra, a girl, a little tomboy i think, and to my surprice, was a video games fan! Ewout, hahaha.. i envied this guy. He had his girlfriend flew from Holland to met him in Japan in a vacation.

Klas is a Finn, had a good sense of humour, and a loud voice. Marita also came from the same country as Klas. Between the Europeans, i think she has the best Japanese. Since the Finns came from Nordic area, they thought winter in Japan was not cold at all. Klas even wore a T-shirt in the class room. WTF? I was freezing in the meantime.

Vinh is an Asian-blooded Swede. He often came late to class and our sensei liked to tease him. Hueges came from France. He is so.. umm.. French? :p. He was Klas's room mate. One day he dissapeared for three days and made Klas worry, hahaha. Then we had Danilo. He was Brazillian, same age as me. His english is excellent! i wonder if all Brazillian have good English.

hehe. ok, that's was my Japanese class team mates. A really good experience for me, my first sip of international taste, preceeding many more to come! Amin! :D

buat yang grogian

I think it might help you to know that research has found that audiences can’t pick up on your anxiety as well as you might expect. Psychologists have documented what is called an “illusion of transparency.” Those speaking feel that their nervousness is transparent, but in reality their feelings are not so apparent to observers. This happens because our own emotional experience can be so strong, we are sure our emotions “leak out.” In fact, observers aren’t as good as picking up on a speaker’s emotional state as we tend to expect. So, while you might be so nervous you’re convinced that everyone can tell how nervous you are, in reality that’s very rarely the case. What’s inside of you typically manifests itself too subtly to be detected by others. With this in mind, you should just relax and try to do your best. Know that if you become nervous, you’ll probably be the only one to know.

2009

Hahaha, it's very late for a happy new year post right? 

anyway... Happy new year every one!

Now, like the norm of every new year, there's a new set of evaluation and resolution right? Ok, so let's get started:

My evaluation for 2008:

1. See the fact! The real world as it is, not as you want it to be. Consider your gut feelings, friends suggestions, and the numbers. Don't let your hopes makes you lie to yourself
2. Be more candid! Cut those B.S talks! tell the truth, with elegance if possible, but just tell it ASAP. The longer you hold it, the more damage it does. You experienced it first hand right? Don't let that happens to others, especially your friends.

Now my 2009 resolution:

1. Get a job! A job that offer you chance to develop in a short time. Since the job will be just  temporary before you get a scholarship.
2. Learn foreign language besides English! Japanese is a must. France, German, or Dutch is an optional.
3. Be more dicipline with your push-up and sit-up daily menu!
4. Rise early! Don't be late for subuh prayer!
5. Of course, search a scholarship! One way or another, you WILL do your master in 2010! apply early!
6. Be iBT certified!
7. It's a long and steep path ahead, but maintain your passion ok!

so.. let 's embrace our future!
