Life update.
My role at ByteDance was impacted just as I was heading into my 8th year of tenure.
I'm officially on the market for a new mobile developer role for android, lynx or KMP. If your team is looking or you have any leads, please hit me up!
I still remember when me and @imrenagi had nice hotpot dinner in Silicon Valley with Ibam 2016/2017, talking about grand vision and how tech can help build Indonesia 🥲
That day feels pre-historic now that Indonesia no longer have bright future, I truly believe #KaburAjaDulu is the way to save our children
Yup. Gue heran kenapa pekerja IT yg domain expertnya jauh di atas gue, malah ketinggalan sama tools AI dan ga lebih jago dari gue,
Ternyata, being employed jadi barrier orang utk bisa catchup sama AI. Valid ini, verified by some startup CEO 👍🏻

Tonton kepanikan pejabat saat upaya mengkambinghitamkan Ibam runtuh di sidang 👇🏼
Masukan netral Ibam, dipelintir pejabat jadi Chromebook, sambil bilang itu arahan Ibam.
Pejabat tersebut akui terima aliran dana, dan membocorkan spek Chromebook ke vendor pemenang.
Tapi dia bebas, tidak jadi tersangka sama sekali, sedangkan Ibam dituntut 15 tahun penjara, denda Rp16,9 miliar, dan tambahan 7,5 tahun penjara jika tidak bisa bayar.
Dan kami sudah pasti tidak bisa bayar, Rp16,9 miliar itu dari salah paham surat saham, dan hanya "patut diduga" tanpa adanya bukti aliran dana sama sekali.
Tapi kebenaran sudah terungkap lewat fakta-fakta di persidangan.
Dari semua kebenaran yang terungkap, perkara Chromebook untuk kasus Ibam ini sebenarnya sederhana.
Ibam sebagai konsultan, sudah netral, profesional, tanpa kewenangan, tanpa kuasa, namun dikambinghitamkan pejabat-pejabat yang terlibat dalam pengadaan.
Kita tentu berharap proses hukum berjalan secara adil, jernih, dan berdasarkan fakta yang terungkap di persidangan.
Namun tuntutan 22,5 tahun yang tidak masuk akal dan penuh ketidakadilan seperti menampar harapan kami tersebut. Kekuatiran kami terhadap adanya kriminalisasi terstruktur semakin dalam.
Kini harapan kami tertumpu pada teman-teman sekalian yang membaca pesan kami.
Tolong, suarakan ketidakadilan ini.
Kepada Presiden Prabowo, kepada Komisi III DPR, kepada siapapun yang kita tahu punya kepedulian dan kemampuan menyediakan perlindungan hukum dari kriminalisasi.
Sembilan hari menuju putusan. Kita masih bisa jadikan perkara ini preseden baik bagi semua profesional yang ingin berbakti bagi negara dengan keahlian mereka.
Bahwa tetap bisa ada perlindungan hukum dari kriminalisasi bagi seluruh pekerja pengetahuan yang ingin bantu Indonesia.

CTO: We lost our strongest backend engineer today.
Founder: The one handling infra and outages?
CTO: Yes.
Founder: Did a bigger company hire him?
CTO: No.
Founder: Then why quit?
CTO: He said he was exhausted.
Founder: From the workload?
CTO: Not exactly. From watching the same database bottleneck, same queue lag, same deployment mistakes come back every month.
Founder: That happens in fast moving teams.
CTO: He agreed. What he could not accept was that every fix was temporary because nobody wanted to slow down and clean the system properly.
Founder: We had deadlines.
CTO: He had standards.
Founder: So he left because the work was hard?
CTO: No. He left because he was not doing engineering anymore. He was just containing damage.
The best engineers do not hate hard problems.
They hate preventable problems that management keeps normalizing.
