I like how mozilla's getting more creative with web contents. Here's what they have for me: Webify Me
Tomorrow, a Better You, a Better Me
I hope tomorrow will bring a better you, a better me
I know that we'll show this world we got more we could be
So you should never give up on your hopes and your dreams
You gotta get up, get out, get into it, get it on to be strong
If we try, we can fly to a whole 'nother place
All we need is belief and a smile on our face
We can go anywhere we want, any road we decide to take
And we're never, never, never too far from tomorrow today
If tomorrow is light in a place where there's none
Then now is the time to have faith in us all
Ya know we're all in this world and we all can belong
We gotta get up, get out, get over it, get it on to be strong
If we try, we can fly to a place in the sun
All we need is precious dreams and a friend we can trust
We can go anywhere we want, any road that we can take
And we're never too far from tomorrow today
Ev'rybody say tomorrow is just for us to share
And we're gonna send our message of love out ev'rywhere
There's a promise of love tomorrow has
Something special and it's something we know will last and last
'Cause we're never far away, never
One thing I can always be sure of
Far away, no never the promise of today

PetakUmpet - PHP-based Web-dev Framework in ~1000 lines
Hello, World!
Just thought I need to record it somewhere for search engines to pick up.
I have been experimenting with a pet project, building my own php-based web development framework. Borrowing much from existing MVC-based framework, so far I have been able to create a minimal version that worked quite alright :)
Got several things working:
Packard's Law, Case of Indonesia
One of Packard's Law states that you cannot grow if you dont have enough capability to grow, well, actually that's my re-wording of the law.
His words apparently goes like this: "No company can consistently grow revenues faster than its ability to get enough of the right people to implement that growth"
I believe this has been expressed in Al-Qur'an within following verse:
Inna lillahi wa Inna Ilaihi Raji'un
Allah memenuhi janji-Nya malam ini, abang kami tercinta dipanggil kembali kepada-Nya.
Semoga Allah mengampuni dosa-dosanya dan memberikan tempat terbaik disisi-Nya. Amin.
Mohon do'anya.
Linux on a "nut" shell
This is just plain awesome:
Linux in a browser running within an emulator written purely in Javascript!
One can even compile a hello world application using a tiny c compiler provided inside.
Congratz and salute to the creators!
Virtualization is fun !
Ok, I'm gonna say this out loud:
"Dual boot slows innovation and creativity"
Imagine having a busy boring work in a Windows/Linux/Mac/InsertYourOSHere environment, then suddenly you have a rush of idea to implement this-next-great-thing-that-is-gonna-save-the-world, but unfortunately you just need to look at a file that you've happened to save in another OS in the dual boot.
How to write inspiring notes
Ok, I've made a mistake.
To write inspiring blogs is not by writing less, very well considered notes.
But instead, I should have write more. Following open source meme of RERO (Release Early, Release Often), I should have written down my notes as soon as I could and as often as I could.
Dont worry about silly little mistakes in the notes. Hey, nobody's perfect, and since we're all nobody, we're all just plain perfect, right :)
Still there's one constraint though, the ever-busy worklife, haha* :)
10 Tahun Mobile Data
Sabang, Pulau Weh, Aceh, Indonesia.
Pak Toni dari Lumba-Lumba Diving Centre bilang kalo beliau perlu mengirim email malam itu juga, namun entah kenapa koneksi internet berbasis GSM beliau tidak stabil malam itu.
Kami pun mengajaknya ke kota atas Sabang dan mencoba menghubungkan beliau dengan dunia maya disana, siapa tahu perbedaan kualitas signal berpengaruh.
On Sharing and Caring
I wanna share bits of miracles that our family has recently been very grateful to experience.
Last month, my brother in-law was diagnosed for Leukeumia. The news shocked us all, and most definitely has become main concern for the family.
One of the main routine needs for leukeumia patients (or Chemotherapy treated patients, I'm guessing) is blood transfusion. Whether it is in the form of red blood cells or thrombocyte (blood platelets).
