Together Forever

-

Since the first time I saw you
You gave meanings to my life
And since that time
I want to live my life with you


And now we walk hand in hand
Towards our future together
Thank you my love
You've chosen me
To live this wonderful life with you


Thank you my love
I only want you
To always be by my side through this life


Only with you
For all my time


 
dedicated to my wife, Oktavia Nengsih...
I may not be perfect, but I'll always do my best for you...

Customizing Sanic's Logging output on Gunicorn

-
For those of you who didn't know, Sanic is a Python 3.6+ web server and web framework that’s written to go fast. It allows the usage of the async/await syntax added in Python 3.5, which makes your code non-blocking and speedy. Sanic's API is highly influenced by Flask and the API is really good. I worked on a personal project lately and found out that doing custom logging on Sanic is quite hard. You don't get a lot of information from Sanic's logging library and since it's based on the default Python 3 logging library , the information it provides is limited. My initial thought was since I will use Gunicorn, let's use Gunicorn's --access-logformat to get the information I needed. The functionality provided a lot of information and I can make use of it to get what I need. However, when you use Sanic Gunicorn Worker, which you need to use to make it work on Gunicorn, it will only use Sanic's logging output. I did a lot of googling and it seems like a lo...

Bali: A view from an Indonesian

Coming from Indonesia, a question I get asked a lot near summer is always the same: Where should I go in Bali? As an Indonesian, I can tell you that Bali is not the only place you can go to. But if it’s your first time coming and you still want to go to Bali then I’ll share my own recommendation on places to go. I won’t share hotels or restaurants, that you can review yourselves based on the area but I’ll share possible locations and things you can do. What’s a visit to a tropical island without going to the beach? Here are my list of recommended beaches: Virgin/White sand beach, Karangasem. This is a hard to reach beach, you need to ride a boat or walk through the cliff. But it’s a really nice beach. Jimbaran. Beautiful beach with great eating place around. Legian. The beach to spend your lazy days. Seminyak. This is pretty much next to Legian, also good. Pandawa beach. It’s a really nice experience going here going through the cliffs. Lovina beach. A nice beach, not to crowded. If yo...

5 Takeaways From My Past 5 Years With Coral, Prism, Midtrans and Gojek

-

A little over 5 years ago, I decided to resign from Traveloka and joined hands with my friends to help build Coral. It was an exciting project. I have a big interest in the social commerce space and Coral seemed to be a very good take at it. We built it, launched it, learned from it and in the end decided that the business model will not be sustainable. Our experiment was evidently working. Merchant's conversion rate reached over 20% on our platform but we couldn't monetise it. Then we took the decision to pivot. We took the best part of Coral, the chat-to-buy capability, and breathe life into Prism. The product helped businesses dive head first into the social commerce space with their existing platforms. One thing that a lot of people don't know was that Coral and Prism was part of Midtrans from early on. It was acquired before launch. This enabled us to do the experiment without worrying about funding. Gojek acquired Midtrans during the closing days of 2017 and Prism w...
