Coffee and Contemplation - 2

  Sejak 2012, gue berulang kali mau nabung dollar. Tapi gue urungkan. Bukan karena ngga yakin dollar bakal naik. Justru karena gue yakin dollar pasti naik terhadap nilai tukar rupiah. Dan gue kepikir, kalau dollar naik, pasti berdampak pada ekonomi negara. Ekonomi orang-orang di sekitar gue. Bukan karena mereka pake dollar. Tapi karena pada skala makro, pertukaran komoditi masih menggunakan dollar. Dan mau ngga mau, melihat harga dollar yang tinggi, komoditas dalam negri pasti melirik pasar luar. Namanya juga bisnis, maunya untung. Didasari pemikiran kalau nabung dollar berasa ngga nasionalis, dan berbahagia di atas kesulitan sodara sebangsa dan setanah air, maka gue memilih invest di saham-saham plat merah. Tujuannya selain untuk investasi juga berkontribusi terhadap usaha milik bangsa. Namun lagi lagi. Ngga di mana-mana, cinta gue selalu bertepuk sebelah tangan. Relationship, karir, berwarganegara, pada akhirnya, pemikiran dan tindakan gue yang dilandaskan perhatian, kasih sayang...

Smart Gadgets Need Tech Savvy

Yeah im not going to talk about how stupid people acting by using their smartphone. You know, that saying about smartphone, stupid people,sort of. No, this is more basic from that.
I've been met a bunch of people who using Mac just for typing and emailing. What a waste.
I know some people who cant send email with attachment via their BlackBerry.
I know people who can't install Whatsapp by themself.
And yes we have first lady that using latest camera technologies just for Instagram. What a waste, what a waste.

Some words from my favorite manga said: sword are nothing without its beholder. Are you gonna use your samurai to cut turnip?

So goes those people with hi-tech cellphone but use them as Nokia 3315 or treat their Mac as if it's MS-DOS. What a waste.

And what getting my nerves is i work with some of them. If i ask them to send me file, they would say: 'i should open my pc first' then i said: 'what happen to your BlackBerry?' and they answer: 'how to attach file with BlackBerry?' And i just want to send them to 1994, to using their pc to send email. Geez it's 2 decade ago.

And when you can't install Whatsapp by your own... Oh please dont make yourself look stupid. Google first. And those people who didnt know how to start Mac... There's a button, indisguise, behind Mac thing. Push it, and Mac will starts itself.

When you have some sophisticated things on your hand, explore it, use it to the top. Then again, you wont bother your colleagues -me, for this case- because of your lack tech savvy-ness. People need to learn, have to learn, no matter how old or how conservative they are.

You know, there's a thing called Google, stuffed with all information if you know how to hit it. Google before asking wont make you look stupid. Thank you.
