Passion.....


Sebelum melihat video ini, aku selalu berfikir untuk mencari pekerjaan yang sesuai dengan keinginanku. sesuai dengan passion ku. Namun apa yang aku pikirkan berubah ketika negara api menyerang. hehe. Baiklah aku akui aku memang buruk dalam merangkai diksi. Yup kita kembali ke topik. Nah kali ini aku akan sedikit memberikan komentar pribadi atas video TED dengan nara sumber Bu Terri. Silahkan menonton nya dahulu di link diatas. 
Intinya bu Terri ini menyampaikan sebuah judul presentasi yang cukup menarik. Berhentilah mengejar passion mu. Wait, jangan emosi dulu sob. Ada penjelasan yang masuk akal dari Bu terri ini. beliau mencontohkan dari kehidupan pribadi. Jadi begini intisarinya sob. Passion itu bukan dicari. jadi berhentilah mencari dan mengejar passion. Kalau kita cuma menunggu passion, kita nggak akan kemana mana. Cuma ngehabisin waktu menunggu. Nah bu terri mengusulkan untuk sekarang kita memulai mengerahkan segenap kemampuan yang ada untuk menghadapi masalah yang didepan. Ketika mencari pekerjaan jangan pilih-pilih. Mulailah dulu barangkali pekerjaan yang kini belum disenangi kelak justru akan menjadi jalan menunju kesuksesan. Jujur aku gak begitu pandai berkata-kata. Aku asumsikan kalian pasti sudah melihat videonya. Passion itu seperti perasaan dia bisa datang dan pergi seenaknya. Passion itu kita yang menciptakan. Ketika kita mengeluarkan segenap tenaga, pikiran dan konsentrasi terhadap pekerjaan yang sekarang kita miliki. passion itu akan muncul mengikuti apa yang sudah kita lakukan.
Sebenarnya  video ini juga menjadi refleksi bagi diriku sendiri. Karena selama ini aku merasa harus menunggu semangat untuk mengerjakan sesuatu. Padahal itu salah. Seharusnya aku harus mengerjakan apapun kondisi mood ku. Ya semoga kedepan aku bisa melakukan apa yang dikatakan bu Terri. Intinya sob, presentasi bu Terri tidak melarang mengejar passion. Tapi kita haru mulai untuk mewujudkannya jadi mari bersama kita bergerak sob. Kita songsong esok hari lebih cerah.

Robot for Agriculture

who doesn't know about drone? an unmanned flying robot that have a lot of purposes, from military, aerial photograph and many more. even know, you can buy or made your own drones. what will i share about today TED talks episode is how if we use drone to help farmers monitoring their fields. Prof Vijay Kumar from the University of Pennsylvania explained about his creation of flying robots with his team that inspired from honeybees. He demonstrates robot that can swarm like insect and small size drone that won't be break during a collision. in the last part of his presentation which is my favourite part he explain about drones in agriculture. using infra red camera he can monitoring the condition of the plant in the field. can distinguished with plant have diseased and which one is not.
It is very interesting presentation, i was a student in faculty of agriculture. honestly, i am impressed to him. because he cares about agriculture with his passion. sometimes we need people from different education background to solve problems in agriculture just like what Vijay Kumar did.

Search it. Find it

In my previous post, i said that I want a good quality television program. I will show you one of my favorite website that have a good quality content and, of course, it's inspiring me. It is https://www.ted.com/ , you can find a lot of video from inspiring people around the world. TED have tagline "Ideas worth spreading". when I watched video from TED last year, I really satisfied and impress. TED give me answer about good quality content. I will give you one video that I like. I embedded that video in this post. She is Jennifer Doudna, one of the researcher that found CRISP technology. i won't tell you what is the contain of the video, you can watch it.

I assume that you have watched that video. what do you think? are you curios about CRISPR? or you already get severe head damage? for me I had all of that. once I watched those video, it's like I have struck with thunder. and then I search her original paper, I read it. I searched another paper that related to CRISPR technology, I also read it. The more I read the more I get dizzy. I barely understand how they can apply that technology in organisms and modify its DNA.

Modifying DNA becomes reality, wow that is something big. I imagine that now people can freely modify DNA, super human technology is coming dude. CRISPR technology is like a knife, in good person it will help a lot of people. I graduated from faculty of agriculture, i thought that maybe it is good to use CRISPR technology to modify plant genome, create a good variety crops that highly resistant to pest and plant disease.
In other hand, this technology can also lead us to the doomsday. it's like a shortcut, super human. mutant and weird creature made by a crazy scientist? come on dude, i am not ready for that. I agree with Jennifer that we should halt to use this technology before we can really sure it's safety.

That is one of my favorite video from TED, I will share about TED video again in the future. well see you later, my dearest reader.
