@liskhayunia Dulu aku yakin kalau pasangan adalah tempat aman untuk membuka luka, yang sekian lama tidak aku hiraukan. Tapi, ternyata itu adalah deskripsi cinta orang tua kepada anak.

@empty__core Kalian baca dulu gak sih sebelum posting? Ahahhahhaha

emang iya??

@dwlobs @LambeSahamjja Interesting insight, Kak. Peran kemenkeu yg strategis dn kompleks jadi terlalu sederhana jika disandingkan dgn “kasir”.

@iam_ahimsa @LambeSahamjja Ilustrasi utk no. 1: kebijakan countercyclical. Bisa googling/tanya AI deh maksudnya apa. Semoga ilustrasi ini cukup mudah dipahami ya.

Guys, Rocky Gerung baru ngomong sesuatu soal Purbaya di depan ribuan mahasiswa ITB dan kalimatnya menurut gue paling telak dan paling jujur yang pernah diucapkan soal posisi Menteri Keuangan kita. Bukan dari ekonom. Bukan dari analis. Dari filsuf. Dan justru itu yang bikin kalimatnya paling menancap. Kalimatnya sederhana. Tapi sangat keras: "Pak Purbaya itu dia cuma kasir. Mana ada kasir menghasilkan growth." Selesai. Tiga kalimat. Tapi gue mau bedah ini lebih dalam karena ini jauh lebih penting dari yang kelihatan di permukaan. Apa maksud Rocky dan kenapa ini sangat relevan: Rocky tidak sedang menghina Purbaya sebagai manusia. Dia sedang mengoreksi sesuatu yang fundamental soal bagaimana kita memahami ekonomi dan bagaimana pemerintah sedang menyesatkan rakyat dengan narasi yang salah. Menteri Keuangan adalah penjaga kas negara. Dia yang mengatur anggaran masuk dan keluar. Dia yang memastikan utang tidak meledak. Dia yang menjaga fiskal tetap sehat. Tapi dia bukan yang menciptakan pertumbuhan. Pertumbuhan lahir dari kementerian teknis yang produktif perindustrian, perdagangan, kelautan, perikanan. Pertumbuhan lahir dari pabrik yang berproduksi, dari nelayan yang bisa melaut, dari petani yang bisa menjual hasil panennya dengan harga yang adil. Tapi yang terjadi sekarang adalah semua orang dari Prabowo sampai media membebankan ekspektasi pertumbuhan 6% kepada seorang kasir. Dan ketika kasir tidak bisa menghasilkan pertumbuhan padahal memang bukan tugasnya untuk melakukan itu dia disalahkan. Rakyat kecewa. Presiden tidak puas. Market tidak percaya. Padahal pertanyaan yang sebenarnya harus diajukan adalah: Di mana kementerian teknis yang seharusnya menghasilkan pertumbuhan itu? Kementerian Perindustrian yang seharusnya menumbuhkan manufaktur tapi kontribusi manufaktur terhadap GDP kita turun dari 30% menjadi 18%. Deindustrialisasi terjadi diam-diam selama bertahun-tahun. Kementerian Perdagangan yang seharusnya membuka pasar tapi investor asing semakin ragu masuk karena kepastian hukum yang berubah-ubah. Regulasi EV yang tiba-tiba mau dikenakan pajak setelah sebelumnya bebas pajak. Komisi ojek online yang dipaksa turun ke 8% sehingga platform bleeding. Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan yang potensinya luar biasa tapi realisasinya masih jauh dari optimal. Itu yang seharusnya ditagih. Bukan Purbaya yang memang tugasnya jaga kas bukan cetak pertumbuhan. Dan ini yang paling miris: Purbaya sudah berulang kali bilang "fundamental kita kuat, rupiah kita undervalued, kita sedang ekspansi." Tapi dolar tetap ngacir ke Rp17.600. IHSG tetap ambruk. Market tidak percaya. Rating agency downgrade outlook kita dari stable ke negatif. Rocky bilang Purbaya "disiksa oleh keinginan rakyat untuk melihat pertumbuhan" dan itu sangat tepat. Orang yang salah jabatan dipaksa menanggung beban yang bukan tugasnya. Dan ketika hasilnya tidak sesuai ekspektasi dia yang jadi kambing hitam dari masalah yang sebenarnya ada di tempat lain. Dan sambungkan ini dengan apa yang Prabowo bilang hari yang sama: "Kalau tidak beres, copot. Sederhana." Pertanyaannya sangat sederhana: Kalau Purbaya yang salah kenapa kementerian teknis yang tidak menghasilkan pertumbuhan tidak dicopot? Kalau Purbaya yang tidak kompeten kenapa orang-orang di sektor riil yang seharusnya menggerakkan ekonomi tidak ditagih? Atau jangan-jangan lebih mudah menyalahkan kasir daripada mengakui bahwa masalahnya ada di arsitektur kebijakan yang lebih besar? Dan Rocky kasih satu poin lagi yang sangat penting: "Tradisi berpikir di universitas begitu masuk dalam birokrasi berubah menjadi hierarki. Tidak mungkin ada inovasi dari dalam birokrasi." Ini menjelaskan segalanya. Kenapa orang pintar yang masuk ke pemerintahan akhirnya diam. Kenapa yang berani justru dihukum. Kenapa Nadiem yang mencoba inovasi berakhir dengan tuntutan 27 tahun. Kenapa yang pandai menunduk justru yang bertahan dan dipuji. Birokrasi tidak mendesain dirinya untuk menghasilkan pertumbuhan. Birokrasi mendesain dirinya untuk mempertahankan hierarki. Dan selama itu yang terjadi pertumbuhan 6% hanya akan menjadi angka di slide presentasi bukan kenyataan yang dirasakan rakyat di dompet mereka. Rocky Gerung benar. Purbaya bukan masalahnya. Purbaya adalah kasir yang dipaksa berperan sebagai mesin pertumbuhan sementara mesin pertumbuhan yang sesungguhnya tidak berjalan dengan benar. Tapi yang lebih besar dari soal Purbaya adalah ini: kita sedang hidup dalam sistem yang menghukum keberanian, memproteksi loyalitas, dan membebankan ekspektasi kepada orang yang salah jabatan sementara yang seharusnya bertanggung jawab terlindungi oleh hierarki yang tidak bisa diganggu gugat. Dan selama sistem itu tidak berubah mau ganti Purbaya dengan siapapun, mau klaim pertumbuhan berapa persen pun dolar akan tetap ngacir. Market akan tetap tidak percaya. Dan rakyat akan tetap merasakan hidupnya makin sempit.

Baca lagi deh. Di situ jelas batasannya ada di pengelolaan keuangan. Kementerian2 teknis itu perannya besar, karena jelas mereka mengelola sektor riil. Logika sederhana, apa yg mau dikelola, klo investasi nol, penerimaan pajak defisit, dll.

@LambeSahamjja Orang yang bilang "tugas menteri keuangan itu cuma kasir" pasti belum pernah lihat KPI menkeu (terlepas ini KPI menkeu yang lama) atau baca struktur OTL kemenkeu.

Exactly what I have been doing in my classes.

@MiskinTV_ AI? Capek banget, kerjaan nambah 1 lagi: was-was dan jeli sama hoax yg dibuat oleh sesama WNI 😤😫

Kirain potingan adegan film korea. Siapa gerangan dirinya?

@LambeSahamjja Ketenangan?

ria ricis ini sebenarnya lagi cari apa yak? secara materi padahal tajir melintir kok kesannya seakan ada yang kurang

“You can never outperform your own self-image.” — Maxwell Maltz Your personality comes from the mental image you’ve built of yourself. Every success, failure, and experience has shaped that image. Thankfully, I learned this early. Reading Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz changed how I think about mental strength: -Visualize the traits you want to embody. -Feed your subconscious clear instructions. -Hardwire success into your mind. What once felt uncertain becomes inevitable. All those worries fade away.

@LambeSahamjja Basi! Djarum udah lama ekspansi. FMGC di bawah Djarum namanya Savoria. Gak cuma susu (Milk Life), tapi jg kopi, permen, dll.

Kalo old money kiblatnya udah mulai ke ranah kebutuhan pokok manusia kayak tiba2 buka usaha f&b, air, dll yg sifatnya primer udah paham kan arahnya ke mana

@FuzaFirdaus Cerdas cermat tuh emang harus plek-ketiplek buku ya jawabannya?

Your brain physically rewrites itself every time you pick up a pen. Neuroscientists at Norwegian University scanned students' brains while they handwrote letters versus typing the same letters on a keyboard. The results shattered decades of assumptions about how we process information. Handwriting activated massive networks in the sensorimotor cortex, the visual processing centers, and the hippocampus simultaneously. Complex neural symphonies lit up across multiple brain regions, creating rich interconnected pathways between motor control, visual recognition, and memory formation. Typing the same letters? The brain activity looked like someone had dimmed the lights across entire cognitive districts. The neural networks that flourished during handwriting simply went dark. The difference? When you form letters by hand, your brain constructs elaborate spatial maps of each character. The motor cortex learns the precise pressure, angle, and trajectory needed to create an 'A' versus a 'B.' Your visual system tracks the ink flowing from pen to paper in real time. Your parietal lobe integrates hand position with eye movement. Your hippocampus encodes not just what you wrote, but how the writing felt, where you paused, which words required more pressure. Typing activates almost none of that circuitry. You press a key, a letter appears. The motor movement is binary. The visual feedback is uniform. The spatial relationship between thought and symbol gets mediated by a machine that standardizes every character into identical fonts and spacing. Your brain treats these as fundamentally different cognitive tasks. The evolutionary context makes this obvious once you see it. Human hands developed for manipulation, creation, and fine motor control over millions of years. We painted on cave walls, carved bone tools, and shaped clay vessels long before we invented written language. When writing emerged 5,000 years ago, it built on top of existing neural infrastructure that already connected hand movement with symbolic thinking. Keyboards appeared 150 years ago. Touchscreen typing maybe 20 years ago. From an evolutionary timeline perspective, we started using them approximately yesterday. Our brains are still running ancient software that expects physical engagement with symbols. That software produces dramatically different learning outcomes. Students who take handwritten notes consistently outperform students who type the same information on memory tests, comprehension assessments, and creative applications of the material. The difference persists even when researchers account for typing speed, note length, and time spent studying. The act of forming letters by hand forces deeper processing at the moment of information encounter. You cannot handwrite as fast as someone speaks, so your brain must actively filter, summarize, and prioritize information in real time. The motor effort required to form each word creates additional memory traces that typing does not generate. Children who learn to write letters by hand develop reading skills faster than children who learn letters primarily through typing or screen interaction. The sensorimotor experience of creating letterforms helps their brains recognize those same letterforms when they encounter them in text. Adults who handwrite shopping lists, daily schedules, or meeting notes remember the information better than adults who type identical lists into phones or computers. The spatial memory of where you wrote something on a page provides retrieval cues that digital text does not offer. These findings collide directly with how education and work environments have evolved over the past two decades. Schools replaced handwriting instruction with typing classes. Offices converted from paper systems to fully digital workflows. Students take notes on laptops. Professionals draft documents on screens. We optimized for speed and efficiency while accidentally severing the neural pathways that evolution spent millions of years developing. The implications reach beyond memory and learning into fundamental questions about human cognition. If the physical act of forming symbols changes how your brain processes ideas, what happens to thinking itself when you remove the physical component? Digital text is infinitely searchable, instantly editable, and perfectly shareable. But it may be creating brains that process information more superficially, store memories less durably, and connect ideas more weakly than brains that regularly engage in handwriting. The neuroscience suggests we traded cognitive depth for technological convenience without realizing what we were giving up. Some of the most innovative thinkers across history were obsessive handwriters. Darwin kept detailed handwritten journals. Einstein worked through complex theories in handwritten notebooks. Virginia Woolf wrote her novels by hand before transcribing them. Steve Jobs famously took handwritten notes during Apple meetings even as he was building the most advanced computers on Earth. Perhaps they intuited something about the relationship between hand, brain, and insight that we measured in brain scanners but somehow forgot in practice. Your pen is literally a cognitive enhancement device that activates neural networks digital keyboards cannot reach.

The article rightly defends human judgment in the age of AI. But it says little about cognitive atrophy, shrinking attention spans, or how education is also about subjectification and socialization, not merely skills and problem-solving.

The more you repeat, the stronger the change.

Writing improves thinking. Writing improves thinking. Writing improves thinking. Students who regularly wrote showed stronger critical thinking and reasoning skills than students using traditional quiz-based learning. Writing doesn’t just record ideas. It develops them.

R!

New episode: "How Elon Works" This episode covers the insanely valuable company-building principles of Elon Musk A few notes from the episode: 1. The mission comes first. 2. Retreat is not an option. 3. A maniacal sense of urgency is our operating principle. 4. Product design should be driven by engineers. 5. You should not separate engineering from product design. 6. Having separate design and production departments is bullshit. Keep everything together and feedback immediate. 7. The leader should be on the front lines. You should be a battlefield general. 8. "If they see the general out on the battlefield, the troops are going to be motivated. Wherever Napoleon was, that's where his armies would do best." 9. Apply The Algorithm constantly. (1) Question every requirement. (2) Delete any part of the process you can. (3) Simplify and optimize. (4) Accelerate cycle time. (5) Automate. 10. Repetition is persuasive. "I became a broken record on the algorithm. I think it's helpful to say it to an annoying degree." 11. You should go ultra-hardcore on deletion and simplification. 12. Camaraderie is dangerous. It makes it hard for people to challenge each other’s work. (Refer to point #1) 13. Never ask your troops to do something you wouldn’t do. 14. Hire for attitude. Skills can be taught. Attitude changes require a brain transplant. 15. Good attitude = A desire to work maniacally hard. 16. The only rules are the ones dictated by the laws of physics. Everything else is a recommendation. 17. Keep your entire company committed to a common goal. 18. If things aren’t going well, throw away the existing design, start from first principles, question every requirement based on fundamental physics. 19. Find the limit. You want to delete as much as possible and you can’t do that unless you find the limit. 20. If you aren’t adding back at least 10% of the things you deleted, then you didn’t delete enough. 21. Maintain control. Avoid joint ventures. Eliminate middlemen. 22. Have a relentless dedication to questioning every requirement. 23. No work about work, just work. 24. Go to the problem. Get on the plane. Fly to the source. Go to the exact location in the factory. Go to the problem and stay there until it's resolved. 25. The best part is no part. 26. Be wired for war. 27. Do not fear losing. It hurts the first 50 times but then you’ll be able to play with less emotion. You will take more risks. 28. Stay heads down focused on doing useful things for civilization. 29. When something is important and has to be done quickly, have meetings every 24 hours to run the algorithm and check on the previous days progress. You'll be shocked at how fast this speeds things up. 30. Life needs to be interesting and edgy. 31. Delete, delete, delete, delete. There are 100 more ideas in the episode. I hope you listen to it. 30 years of Elon’s career + 60 hours of reading and research and me just absolutely ripping through idea after idea at 2x speed for 90 minutes. It will be hard to find a better use of time.

@dosenkesmas Gaeeees, kalian kenapa sih gk mau repot baca dulu yg bener, baru trus komentar? Ada loh itu keterangan, BUKAN PENGGANTI ASI. Ini pendamping, artinya melengkapi gizi saat ASI tidak cukup. Usia 6 bln memang idealnya konsumsi MP-ASI.

Wah aseli ini kacau bener dah BGN. HEEEEEELLLLPPPPPP!!!! 😭😭😭
