Isfa is one of the kindest, most humble, and most skilled Android devs I've ever had the chance to work with while building my last startup.
If the criminalization against me hadn't happened, our startup would have closed Series A funding and scaled to a 30-person dev team by now. But alas, I'm not in a position to make Isfa an offer, though I'd jump at the chance to work with him again.
I can attest that Isfa is firmly among the top 0.1% of tech talent in Indonesia, and he's being laid off through no fault of his own. Life just dealt him an unfortunate circumstance, one that I'm absolutely sure he'll overcome and come back stronger from.
One last thing from me: somebody in Indo please hire him before an overseas company hands him a #kaburajadulu offer. Losing him would be a real blow to our tech ecosystem.

BREAKING; Indonesia’s Attorney General has charged Ibam with 15 years in prison and IDR16.5b in fines.
Let’s be clear, there is no crime. This is a political witch-hunt by dark forces who didn’t like changes in the education ministry.
Indonesia’s legal system is broken.
Verdict in two weeks.
🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now.
The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left.
Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops.
If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time.
The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy.
They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand.
The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker.
The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.
Guys ada yang punya experience linkedinnya ke banned, pas mau verif kayak susah banget gitu ga? Ada any tips/suggestions?
Pas mau verif sama persona susah (pake ktp), udah trial 3 kali pun tetep ga bisa.
Pas pake nomor hp malah error katanya multiple times attempt gitu
@hrdbacot Ga bakal efektif, krn paling lambat THR dibayarkan 7 hr sebelum hari raya keagamaan, orang kementrian/dinas dah pada libur/cuti ketika lewat batas waktu, laporannya pasti banyak bgt. Mending langsung dispute aja biar ga terus berulang. Biar dpt hak & perusahaan kena sanksi.

Yang harus dipahami pekerja teknologi adalah.
Zaman now ga bisa bilang “ex Gojek” buat nawar gaji. Ga ada guna. Duit yang ada ga cukup buat cover gaji yang anomali itu.
Kalo ada yg bilang gitu pas rekrutmen, saya selalu bilang: “gue juga, terus kenapa?” 🤣
Makanya gue bilang, dari pengalaman rekrut, banyak tekbro yg unhireable karena skillnya ga selaras ama gaji yang diminta.
Apalagi di masa-masa AI gini. Saya sendiri bisa bikin 3 produk dlm 3 bulan sendiri. Jadi ya bare minimumnya ya biaya AI sekarang ~100-200$
