Sewaktu kecil dulu, saya pernah merasakan untuk bermain berbagai permainan tradisional seperti dakon, congklak, gobak sodor dsb. Namun belakangan saya baru tahu kalau permainan dari leluhur tersebut memiliki filosofi yang sangat luar biasa. Misalnya, dakon mengajarkan bagaimana cara mengatur keuangan. Dan saya juga baru tahu bahwa arti dari "Hom Pim Pa" yang selalu diucapkan setiap akan memulai permainan adalah "dari Tuhan balik lagi ke Tuhan". Sungguh luar biasa permainan tradisional dari leluhur. Untuk lebih jelasnya, silahkan lihat video penjelasan Zaini Alif di channel youtube TEDx Talk dengan judul The Secret Meaning of Hom Pim Pa.

Hamparan ladang nan hijau. Disinilah para petani bawang merah mencari penghidupan. Tempat mencari sedikit pendapatan, di tengah ketatnya persaingan. Persaingan dengan bawang merah impor. #MelihatINDONESIA #Nganjuk

The most important thing, "collaboration".

There’s an iconic photograph of Steve Jobs, taken during the very early, successful days of the company he helped start: Apple.

In the photo you can see Steve sitting in his home, only a lamp, a sitting pad, a few vinyl records, a record player, and a notebook sitting in the room with him....

Google’s Self-Driving Car Is Real, And It Looks Like A Tiny Bubble-Car

We’ve known Google has been working on self-driving cars for awhile now, but all of a sudden, the project is real: last night, Google revealed a working prototype of its self-driving car. It’s a two-seater that looks something like a mashup of a Fiat 500, Steve Urkel’s car, and a cartoon smiley face.

The Economist takes a look at the next generation of indoor farming complete with wavelength optimized light bulbs:

A GREY warehouse in an industrial park in Indiana is an unlikely place to find the future of market gardening. But it is, nevertheless, home to a pristine, climate-controlled room full of eerily perfect plants. They grow 22 hours a day, 365 days a year in 25-foot towers, untouched by pests and bathed in an alien pink light.

Critical to this $2.5m techno-Eden, run by a firm called Green Sense Farms, are the thousands of blue and red light-emitting diodes (LEDs) supplied by Philips, a Dutch technology firm. The light they give off is of precisely the wavelength craved by the crops grown here, which include lettuce, kale, basil and chives.

The idea of abandoning the sun’s light for the artificial sort is not new. It offers plenty of advantages: no need to worry about seasons or the weather, for instance, not to mention the ability to grow around the clock (although a couple of hours a day are necessary, says Gus van der Feltz of Philips, for the plant equivalent of sleep). Moving plants indoors allows them to be coddled in other ways, too. Water can be recycled continuously, and sensors can detect which nutrients are missing and provide them in small, accurate bursts.

We imagine there will come a day, when they sell this technology in kits and everyone will be able to have a basement farm which would be pretty cool.

Serial TV yg wajib ditonton, Sillicon Valley.

How HBO Recreated The Studiedly Zany Offices Of Silicon Valley

Silicon Valley is not your typical workplace comedy. The new HBO series, loosely based on creator Mike Judge's experience as test engineer at a tech startup in the ’80s, follows protagonist Richard Hendriks—who invents a powerful file-compression technology called Pied Piper—as he starts his own company and fights for a slice of the tech-boom pie. Along the way, we get a fictionalized glimpse of Silicon Valley office spaces—a subject easy to satirize, given how Bay Area tech giants such as Google have become famous for their zany, playground-plush offices spaces. 

Silicon Valley is a meticulously researched show—tech advisors help ensure that even scribblings on Post-It notes on set seem as realistic as possible—and the work spaces that appear on screen are no exception. Production designer Richard Toyon, the man responsible for the visual storytelling, called up friends all over Silicon Valley to get a peek inside the offices of Facebook, Google, Zynga, and others. Security often prevented Toyon from taking pictures inside the buildings, so he made due with mental notes.

Kreasi otak manusia, brilliant!

Knocking down a concrete building usually takes brute force: Wrecking balls, huge excavators, or explosives rip apart walls while fire hoses spray water to keep the clouds of dust down. It’s an energy-intensive process, and after everything’s been torn apart, the concrete often ends up in a landfill or has to be trucked to a recycling facility. But a new concrete-erasing robot may eventually transform the messy business of demolition.

What Happens To Our Brains When We Exercise And How It Makes Us Happier

Most of us are aware of what happens to the body when we exercise. We build more muscle or more stamina. We feel how daily activities like climbing stairs becomes easier if we exercise regularly. When it comes to our brain and mood though, the connection isn’t so clear.
