Berikut video analisa sy re ledakan konflik Timur Tengah, dimana sy juga jelaskan mengapa ide agar Pres Prabowo terbang ke Teheran utk jadi mediator konflik AS-Israel-Iran adalah gagasan yg TIDAK realistis. Sy juga himbau agar Pemerintah 🇮🇩 menangguhkan pengiriman pasukan perdamaian kita ke Gaza. Silahkan dibahas, komentari, bantu sebarkan & boleh dikutip media.

There’s this never-ending debate about whether em dashes, semicolons, and colons have become signs of AI writing. As a result, many of us writers have stopped using them—swapping them for commas or reshaping sharp, effective sentences into something blander—to avoid suspicion.

But AI was trained on the best of us. On millions of published works by real authors. It learned from our voices, our rhythms, our punctuation. And now we’re acting as if those marks somehow belong to machines.

They don’t.

Those tools were ours long before AI existed. Our teachers taught us how and when to use them, years before anyone imagined generative AI. So let’s take them back. Let’s use the full range of language with confidence. The em dash, the semicolon, the colon—they’re not signals of artificiality. They’re signs of craft.

Hey X,

Having been working as a freelance science journalist for 14 years, I see that many science stories are underreported. American and European editors say “it’s too local for us”, Indonesian editors say “it’s too niche”. But for me, “it’s too important to miss out!”.

The recruiter asks: "What are your salary expectations?"

You give a number. Silence. The interview ends.

Two days later, the offer is $15k less than you’re worth. You just fell into the "Anchor Trap."

Stop costing yourself thousands. Say this instead:

Gua mau pengakuan dosa...
Jadi gua pernah terlibat dalam proyek pelepasan status kawasan hutan menjadi sawit tahun 2021 di kalimantan tengah dengan luas konsesi 5.000 Ha itu gede banget menurut gua. Dan izin itu bisa sampai 30taun++
Begini prosesnya:

Saat itu gua masih SMK dan magang di sebuah perusahaan konsultan dan singkatnya gua diterbangkan ke kalteng karena ada proyek penataan batas wilayah hutan (tata batas).

Tata batas itu apa? Disudut pandang administrasi kawasan hutan itu dibagi menjadi beberapa tingkatan:
1. hutan lindung (warna di peta hijau)
2. Hutan produksi (warna kuning di peta)
3. Hutan produksi terbatas (warna hijau muda)
4. Hutan produksi yang dapat di konversi (warna ungu)
5. Areal penggunaan lain (warna putih)
Nah tata batas itu kita menata ulang batas kawasan hutan untuk kemudian di ubah statusnya menjadi kawasan non-hutan. Karena banyak banget di lapangan kebun sawit yang udah beroprasi puluhan tahun tapi status kawasannya di peta masih hutan. Ngeri banget kan? Dan ini pasti lebih dari 1000ha luasannya.

Gua ngapain disana? Kerjaan gua saat itu survey buat ngambil titik koordinat dan masang pal batas baru di kawasan sawit itu dan gak sedikit yang emang bersinggungan langsung sama hutan lindung (contoh di vidio kedua).

Gua banyak banget nemuin ketimpangan dan ironi karena banyak banget hutan disana yang dengan gampang di babat entah itu buat jalan atau untuk perluasan kebun. Dan gak sedikit gua cekcok sama warga adat disana perihal kerjaan ini bahkan yang sampe mengancam nyawa gua (ini real), dan disitu posisinya gua serba salah aja sebagai karyawan wkwkwk

Juga dari yang gua denger dari senior di lapangan gak sedikit perusahaan yang kalo izinnya udah mau abis mereka nyari surveyor geologi buat dapet sumberdaya didalamnya dan dijadiin tambang.

Segitu dulu ges gua sekarang sedang tobat ekologi kalian pernah liat atau mungkin terlibat hal yang serupa?? Komen dibawah

@myXLCare Maaf, Maya kayaknya tidak bisa membantu saya. Saya beli kartu perdana XL dan sudah registrasi, namun tidak dapat isi pulsa. MyXL dinyatakan sedang maintenance. Apakah saya bisa DM Kakak?

[Erik TS @erikts]

I'm in Corporate Communications.

Last Tuesday we laid off 2,400 people.

I wrote the announcement.

It took 11 drafts.

Draft 1 said "layoffs."

Legal said no.

Draft 2 said "job cuts."

HR said no.

Draft 3 said "workforce reduction."

The CEO said "too negative."

Draft 11 said "organizational restructuring to position the company for sustainable growth."

Everyone approved.

Same 2,400 people.

Different words.

Words matter.

To the stock price.

I wrote "difficult decision."

Difficult means we thought about it.

We thought about it for six months.

Then we did it anyway.

But we thought first.

That's empathy.

I wrote "we don't take this lightly."

We take it very lightly.

It's a spreadsheet.

Names. Salaries. Roles.

Delete.

Done.

But "lightly" sounds bad.

So we don't take it lightly.

I wrote "impacted employees."

Not "fired employees."

Not "people who can't pay rent."

"Impacted."

Like weather.

Natural.

Unavoidable.

Nobody's fault.

The CEO recorded a video.

He looked sad.

We did seven takes.

Take 1: Not sad enough.

Take 4: Too sad.

Take 7: Perfect sadness.

Authentic.

Rehearsed authentic.

That's the goal.

The email went out at 6 AM.

Pacific time.

Before markets opened.

Before journalists woke up.

Before employees knew.

Some found out on Twitter.

From reporters.

Before their managers called.

That wasn't the plan.

But it also was the plan.

We scheduled the manager calls for 6:15 AM.

Reporters refresh faster than managers dial.

A reporter asked for comment.

I said, "We're committed to supporting affected employees."

Supporting means two weeks severance.

Per year of service.

Capped at 12 weeks.

Maximum loyalty: 6 years.

After that, same payout.

Thanks for your service.

The stock went up 7%.

That's why we did it.

Not sustainable growth.

Not organizational efficiency.

The stock.

The CEO's options vest in March.

The timing is coincidental.

That's what I wrote.

In the internal FAQ.

"The timing is unrelated to executive compensation."

It's very related.

But unrelatedness is the message.

The message is my job.

I'm very good at my job.

Draft 11 proved it.

2,400 people.

Zero accountability.

All sustainable growth.

Both ‘okay’ and ‘ok’ are oll korrect.

In the 1820s & 1830’s, it was fashionable to deliberately misspell words.

For example, ‘all right’ became ‘oll wright.’

The trend also extended to abbreviations
All correct —> oll korrect—> o.k.

A cop and military officer accused a man of selling ‘es gabus’ allegedly made from sponge, but tests later confirmed it was safe and free of harmful substances.
