  • Part 2 of our Christmas excitement.

    Part 2 of our Christmas excitement.

    Just like in Part 1, some of our friends at This is KunKun and Jeremia Nikola Wijaya have published this cool montage of our offline Christmas holiday! We were staying on one of the managed villas by The Villas 100, which you can check and book it here. It’s all fun despite the constant rain…

  • Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    It might be too late for us to say that. And in case you wonder why we didn’t greet with online people last Christmas and New Year’s Eve is well, we’re quite busy in real-life, too. Some of our friends at This is KunKun and Jeremia Nikola Wijaya have published this cool montage of our…

  • Clarifying Go package names in TDLib’s documentation.

    Clarifying Go package names in TDLib’s documentation.

    Original Pull Request: https://github.com/tdlib/td/pull/2238 Third-party Go packages are named after Git repository URLs, which could cause confusion if some libraries are bearing the same name. go-tdlib and go-tdlib are just some examples which may confuse people. So I added their canonical package names according to Go package registry.

  • New color palettes!

    New color palettes!

    Right at the end of 2022, we have achieved something we wanted since 2016. A custom color palette which we can use extensively for product design, marketing, and branding. It all started when we planned a throwback to our old design system after hearing the news that The Verge, ZDNet, even Hacktoberfest (2022) are starting…

  • Twitter’s removing “Twitter for X” labels? Here’s how it just made the platform worse.

    Twitter for iPhone. Sounds like a social status and a nightmare for Android phone companies when accidentally tweeting from their iPhones. Well, that’s until Elon decided to remove it because he thought it was a waste of space and compute. But we feel removing it just makes the platform worse, especially in terms of spam,…

  • 2023: Apa Adanya.

    Kamu adalah terang dunia, layaknya kota di atas bukit yang tak tersembunyikan. Entahlah, untuk apa kamu menyalakan cahaya di dalam ember yang tertutup? Lagipula, semua orang menaruh lampu di tempat yang benar, di atas, biar ada gunanya. Dan hukum ini juga berlaku di dunia maya. Di tengah-tengah orang yang: Setelah 4 1/2 tahun aku menutup…

  • It’s time to turn Twitter into a Parler clone.

    It’s time to turn Twitter into a Parler clone.

    Parler is a Twitter clone. Yeah, it’s not as famous as Twitter in many parts of the world. But apparently, Parler has played an important rule on what happened during the #StormTheCapitol attack in 2021, where supporters of Donald Trump gather together to the Capitol because Joe Biden won the election. But soon, we will…

  • Mengkritik pemerintah (khususnya Kominfo).

    Tak sedikit warganet yang mengkritik pasal-pasal penghinaan pemerintah pada rancangan KUHP yang baru saja diresmikan. Banyak orang yang akhirnya menyerah, pasrah, dan memprediksikan kebebasan masyarakat Indonesia akan dikekang layaknya Republik Rakyat Cina. Saya percaya akan ada banyak kekecewaan demi kekecewaan yang akan muncul, dan KUHP tak hanya menjadi satu-satunya alasan. Demikian pula dengan Kementerian Komunikasi…

  • Can I become a Christian VTuber?

    Hey Shift, I recently saw some Christian people becoming VTubers, and there’s some discussion over Reddit for the ethics of these. Since I’ve seen you and your friends are currently investing in VTubers, what are your stances about this? Answer Well, it’s okay to be a VTuber, but remember that: Because you are a child…

  • Dikirimin file APK dari akun WhatsApp J&T? Kirim filenya biar kita sleding pelakunya!

    (#_ )! Saat ini kita melihat beberapa kasus warganet yang dikirimi file APK sebagai resi pengiriman kurir palsu, misalnya dari J&T Express. Ya, J&T punya akun WhatsApp resmi sendiri, dan kurir-kurir pengantarnya seringkali juga membuat akun WhatsApp sendiri untuk mengirimkan pesan kepada pengirim dan penerima paket. Ya, makanya kegiatan penipuan seperti ini agak sulit dideteksi…
