Look Into God

I was interested in how Bieber was coming to church to get redemption. He was on Hillsong church until its Pastor was dismissed because of cheating. Bieber then distanced himself from Hillsong church and moved to Churchome church. 

When Bieber went to Hillsong, his career was on the edge of collapse. His misbehaviour dirtied his image. He needed a stunt for recovering his image. 

Hillsong NY also got their boost of fame because of Bieber. They profited from it. Their Pastor even handled Bieber personally. 

Such politics.... 

We also saw how charismatic Pastor Kong Hee arrested. He had an impressive ministry. However, he used church's fund to help his wife's career. 

We also see of how big church organizations would have internal strive. How their leader would topple the other leader just to have their own dynasty. They even lied. 

Are you disappointed in Christianity? 

I don't. 

We should know that religion was founded to justify order. From the olden day of shamanic society to the monotheism. Religion always be a stamp of approval to hold the masses.

No religion ever scientifically proven their god(s). Not even Christianity. Only claims based on faith. 

So, why should I put my faith in Jesus? 

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. (Matthews 6:33) 

Religion is about personal findings to God. It's not about how big is the church nor how charismatic their leaders. Everyone including the Pastor and all of the minister is also the player. 

They could fall. 

Moses failed to go to Canaan. Eli's children brought God's condemnation. King David, the most intimate to God, fall. Peter and Judas betrayed. 

The Bible talked about the human side of God's children. If an Apostle that Jesus promised to be his church's corner could fall, don't you find faulty church was expected? 

However, you could find righteous God's minister from time to time. David Livingston is a good example. Charles Spurgeon also. Perhaps, you could find someone who serve with the utmost devotion. 

Yes, even if church may filled with rotten people, God would put few of His people there. I can vouch for people like those exist. I was drawn to Christianity by such people. 

They prayed. They don't hesitate to help. They open their copper for that. Their behavior also consistent. 

Well, if you can't find one. Be the one so that people like me can see role model of God's people. Lol. 

However, don't judge on rotten people. They might be on their lowest. 

Peter was given a chance by Jesus and look how great his ministry was. King David was pardoned because he was sorry. And so on.... 

Just pray for such person. Don't hate. May be God would someday touch that person. 

Meanwhile, don't be discourage in our faith to Christ. 

Just learn to look into God. He's the perfect role model.

STAN vs. UI

Ugh, kasihan banget adek gue. Saking kepinteran dia jadi dapet Akuntansi UI dan STAN. Jadi bingung mau masuk yang mana. Beberapa orang (termasuk orang tua gue), menyarankan masuk STAN. Gue malah memperburuk suasana dengan membela memasuki Akuntansi UI, maklum bela almamater. Duh, gue jadi merasa bersalah bikin dia ragu-ragu. Kira-kira enakan masuk mana, yah? Gue juga gak tahu keuntungan masing-masing. Hasil debat sementara: ~ Untuk jangka panjang masuk UI, untuk jangka pendek STAN. ~~Tapi, dia itu kan cewek, ntar pas menikah kemungkinan besar karir terhambat. Eits, ntar, dulu, sekarang kan jamannya emansipasi, bisa aja cowoknya yang jadi BRT. ~ STAN sarang korupsi, kalo masuk STAN jadi pegawai negeri. Kalo mau kaya harus korupsi. Tapi kalo masuk UI, lulus masuk jadi akuntan publik. Sekarang ini, orang membayar akuntan publik untuk memanipulasi nilai pajak dan aset. *SIGH*. Jadi gak ada yang beres ~ dll. Yah, udah gue jadi bingung, apa lagi dia nanya saran gue. Buah, gue gak pengalaman ...

Installing Goodix Fingerprint Reader Driver on Fedora

I currently have a Lenovo Thinkpad L14 laptop equipped with fingerprint. I was `belok` from KDE Neon to use Fedora 40 because of someone. Now I am tempted to enable my fingerprint: lsusb | grep -i fingerprint Bus 001 Device 004: ID 27c6:55b4 Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Fingerprint Reader Dump the firmware Assuming this is a fresh install, lets do some magic by getting some dependencies: sudo dnf install gcc git python-pip python-devel openssl Let's get the source code: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/goodix-fp-linux-dev/goodix-fp-dump.git cd goodix-fp-dump Create an isolated Python environment: python -m venv .v source .v/bin/activate Do the magic: sudo su pip install -r requirements.txt python run_55b4.py exit There are some python scripts available. I run run_55b4.py because my device ID is 27c6: 55b4 . It will spell some nonsense, which is a good thing. That nonsense actually the firmware captured by our device. Also, I typed exit becaus...

Vibe Coding Workflow

I am currently working for having A.I. workflow for generating projects. There are two things that need to be tackled for that: 1) hallucinations; and 2) old codes. I have met several patterns to tackle those two and just need to formulate the patterns into a general flow. Thankfully, a video of building fullstack app using A.I. from Raf Dev channel inspired me to make the formulation. He used multiple A.I. engines to his need: He used Google Gemini to onboard his ideas and summarized it. He forked a boilerplate of NextJS project into a new project. Then, he added the summary from Google Gemini into a file for context. He used QWEN Code, a QWEN3 code engine that is a fork from Gemini CLI, to build the project. When working with an existing project, A.I. will take the whole project as a context. It also means that it will stick with the version used by the libraries. It also will try to update its knowledge based on the common pattern in the project. Most of the time, it will use the c...
