Local Contents & Talents in Jogja

 Posted on map[Count:March 7, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

I am writing this because I can’t code lol. Due to another unprecedented harddrive failure with my Macbook, the night before going to Jogja, I had to reinstalled everything. Some installed right but most of them is still barebone. I did get Xcode to install though :) So instead of writing codes, I’m writing this. A 1 hour flight back to Jakarta will be the deadline. This trip to Jogja made me realize a lot of things. [Read More]

Mobile Trends - Looking Back 1 Year

 Posted on map[Count:March 3, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

I’m still fairly new to mobile development, just a little over a year. As I dig deeper, it just gets more and more interesting. This won’t be a technical writing like a tutorial but more to how the development scene has been evolving for the past 1 year. Putting it simple: Trends. I started my mobile development efforts with Blackberry. Against all odds, I installed the SDK on a Windows virtual machine using Parallels Desktop. [Read More]

Compartments

 Posted on map[Count:March 2, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

Ah not often I write blog posts with only a word as its title, this will be the first for 2011. Couldn’t think of any other title suiting for what I have in mind. It’s just it, compartments. More often than not, in life generally, everyone of us are obliged to do and think horizontally vast and wide making our heads divided into compartments. All of those compartments are often problems right? [Read More]

A Pack of Startups

 Posted on map[Count:February 21, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

What is the connection of a pack of cigarrettes with startups? Well I haven’t figured it out completely, might as well write my way until I found some special formula or maybe not, who knows? I am gonna enjoy writing this, hopefully this writing will also keep you entertained. Before anything else, please digest the writings here with a pinch of salt, some lemons and a shot of your favorite Tequila if available :p So this all began when I found myself addicted to 2 things which are cigarrettes and startups.

Spontaneous Writing Episode II

 Posted on map[Count:February 4, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

The second episode of Spontaneous Writing is now in session continuing from this previous session. For tonight, my iTunes is happily playing songs by Tohpati in his rather old solo album. By the way, from what I’ve been trying to do the past few weeks, it seems that only when I got home will then writing moments will be abundant for my fingers. Can’t seem to do this while at the office. [Read More]

Small is NOT so small

 Posted on map[Count:January 24, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

It’s been like a few months not posting into my own blog. The 24th day of 2011 and it seems that months have passed by just like that. In the span of 24 days that have passed, every single day is cramped with all the aspects of being a startup. Just today, I went from a programmer, a cable crimper, a business partner, a troubleshooter, a mobile app consultant, a colleague to a friend for a friend, all in just one day. [Read More]

Upgrade Nexian Journey to Gingerbread - Android 2.3

 Posted on map[Count:January 7, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

Tonight I was curious about some infos surrounding Gingerbread upgrade for Nexian Journey. From a thread here at XDA-Developers Forum, looks like a fellow Indonesian has managed to compile and install a Gingerbread ROM for his own Nexian Journey. I read about that a few days ago and last night CyanogenMod 7.0 was released. Still with RC0 but it’ll be nice to live on the edge :) These are the requirements for Gingerbread to happen: A Nexian Journey with Clockwork Recovery and Android 2. [Read More]

Mixed and Mixed

 Posted on map[Count:January 6, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

Okay this one is non-technical at all. So for anyone reading this, might as well enjoy the ride of some lessons I learned recently with life in general. I’m not a teacher so stop reading if anywhere along the way you feel that I’m one. This is an expression of mixed circumstances with a little tech twist. I don’t keep count of how many times I said this in my blog or at the office but 2011 is a year full of challenges and obstacles. [Read More]

Cloud Install Linux With a Browser!

 Posted on map[Count:January 5, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

So these past days, I’ve been looking for a nifty replacement (new home) for hostingMUREH.com - The only webhosting with 10 gigs web space for just 200K/year! Sorry for the hard selling gesture, completely intentional :p After a few sessions with Google, I stumbled CloudSigma.com, it comes with a 7 days free trial I might add. First look at its website does not resemble anything like the other cloud server providers. [Read More]

Cryptic Consequences - Memcache

 Posted on map[Count:January 3, 2011]  |  Batista Harahap

This is yet another blog post about the almighty Memcache hehehe. As do all of us I assume, more than often Memcache has always been a lifesaver won’t you say? Well at least when it is tamed, I’m positive it’s a lifesaver anytime, when it’s still wild, extremely saying: you shit bricks lol. Well here’s another Memcache experience. First of all you gotta visit http://memcached.org man. The header from the top right is littered with illustrations of either rabbits or cats. [Read More]
