Salah satu quotes terbaik yang pernah gue baca adalah “you can’t beat someone who is having fun” Dan ini circulating pas Alysa Liu jadi Olympic champion dengan bubbly personality-nya Bayangin lo ngelawan orang yg talented, obsessed sm gameplay-nya, stay composed di situasi apapun, tahan pressure/psy-war, and on top of that, is just… having fun? How could you possibly beat them?

Tenangno pikirmu om. Iki mangan selat solo 🙏🏼

Jujur aja: Berapa gaji minimum yang bikin lo berhenti ngeluh soal kerjaan? Gue mulai duluan: 40jt/bulan

Fork or spoon ?

As a fisikawan ini VALID Sedari sekolah kita diajarkan fisika tuh kaya gini ketemu soal → cari rumus → masukin angka → selesai. Misalnya gini yah, ada suatu rumus dasar tentang gaya yaitu (F = m.a). Di sekolah, guru kita langsung ngajarin substitusi angka ke dalam rumus. Kita ga diajarin analisis seperti “Ini gaya dari mana?” “Kenapa arahnya begitu?” “Kalau kondisinya diubah, hasilnya gimana?” Padahal rumus F = m.a Adalah sebuah cerita bahwa gerak benda akan berubah ketika diberikan sebuah gaya, dan perubahannya berdasarkan berapa besar massa bendanya... End up di kelas fisika jadi kelihatan spt matematika mekanis. Padahal fisika berbeda dgn matematika, inti FISIKA adalah MODEL REALITAS ALAM. Harus belajar gimana analisis situasi dulu (free body, arah gaya, energi mengalir ke mana), baru rumus dipakai buat ngecek atau memperjelas. Di jepang fisika jadi menyenangkan karena guru memakai konsep kehidupan sehari-hari. Contoh simpel: Untuk nyeritain materi GLBB (Gerak Lurus Berubah Beraturan) mereka memilih jelasin konsep "naik motor terus ngerem mendadak". Itu sebenernya fisika apaa?? Apakah ada gaya gesek, percepatan, arah gerak, momentum berubah?? Nah hal itulah yang dianalisis, ketika sudah paham konsep maka siswa ga perlu hafal rumus udah tau harus menghitung seperti apa. Tapi aku ga akan nyalahin guru guru fisika di Indonesia. Yang salah jelas pemerintah memberi gaji guru kecil bgt, belum lagi beban administrasi terlalu banyak. Guru jadi ga fokus bikin media pembelajaran yang baik dan juga fokus cari side hustle utk bertahan hidup.

Seven stolen dogs have gone viral after breaking free and returning home. They reportedly covered around 17 km as a group, guided by a corgi, through highways and fields, with many now referencing Homeward Bound.

Went down the rabbit hole on this. Your brain treats a physical book like a landscape. It builds a spatial map of the text, the same way it maps trails, rooms, and city blocks. When you scroll on a phone, that map breaks apart. Seven large-scale research reviews and direct brain scans confirm what you already feel. A 2023 study in PLOS ONE attached brain-activity sensors to children’s heads while they read the same text on paper and on screen. Paper reading produced fast brain waves, the pattern linked to focused attention. Screen reading shifted the brain into slow waves, the pattern linked to mind wandering and daydreaming. Same kids. Same words. Measurably different brain states. A separate 2022 study from Showa University in Japan scanned the front of the brain, the area that manages focus and comprehension, during phone versus paper reading. Smartphones sent that region into overdrive, meaning the brain was straining just to keep up with basic processing. Paper reading produced a moderate load that triggered natural deep breathing, which helped regulate brain function and sustain focus. The phone suppressed that breathing pattern entirely. Since 2017, researchers have published seven major reviews combining hundreds of individual studies. Six of seven reached the same conclusion: people understand less on screens. A 2018 review of 54 studies and 170,000+ participants, literally titled “Don’t throw away your printed books,” found paper outperformed screens across the board for non-fiction. A 2024 follow-up with 49 more studies confirmed it. The gap has grown steadily every year since 2001. Being a “digital native” doesn’t help. The best explanation is how your brain tracks where you are. Your short-term memory can only juggle about 7 things at once. A physical book gives you constant location cues: the weight shifting from right hand to left, where a paragraph sits on the page, how thick the remaining pages feel. Your brain hands off the “where am I in this text?” job to those physical signals, leaving more room for actually understanding what you’re reading. On a phone, every screen looks identical. Your brain has to track position and process meaning at the same time, and something gives. A Norwegian eye-tracking study analyzing 25,000+ individual eye movements found screen readers processed text more shallowly. The students had no idea they were reading differently. In 2019, nearly 200 reading scientists from 30+ countries signed an open letter warning that screen reading was degrading deep comprehension. Since then, Scandinavian countries, among the most digitized school systems on Earth, have started putting physical books back in classrooms.
