Reunion

Dear All,

It's been a long time since I update my blog. Now I will try to write about what I have experienced recently. As some of you know that I have been back in Indonesia and I stay there for about 3 months. I met my friend and high school friends and have a little reunion to catch up with them what new in their life. My recent update is the reunion with my high school friend that stay in Europe.

I made a little comparison between my life with their life. My friends back home all already settled, they have married, some of them have babies and stable job (some has their own business and company). My high school friend that decide to stay here in Europe, they still haven't married but they have already got stable job with high salary. Some of them have already bought a house.

I asked myself "Will I be able to catch up?". I was thinking hard about this after I meet them .. It gives me motivation that I need to improve myself, but in the other hand I felt that I was too far behind compare to them. I can not complain about why I am still with my life now since I believe that I like all of my decision I took, I also think that all of my experience good or bad teach me a lesson.

Now what I can do is to continue to life to the fullest. I have no one else to blame for my life. I have to learn in searching and taking the opportunity. I will set my priority right and I will do it the best I can.

So do your best, It's your own life you live in now.

Where does the life come from ?

Hi All,

I will tell you a little story about where the life come from. I got the knowledge from the documentary I saw. I watched a lot of them and try to combined them with my knowledge I hope that I can make it into a little story, so here we go.

Once a long time ago before life exists in this earth. The earth was hot. Just imagine in the early age of earth the sea was boiling, it was called the primordial soup. The ancient gas of the earth with the electricity from thunder make it possible to create on the sea, amino acid (the building blocks of the organic material). This phenomenon has already confirmed in the laboratory.

Every living organism need to have the pattern to assemble the part (amino acid). That pattern was called DNA or in the simpler organism is RNA. This pattern is the one that control each cells how they will become, how each cells create their protein and what they should be. The DNA responsible for making the organic material to meet their pattern. In another term DNA made organic material alive. If you imagine on the different term it will be a code written in the machine.

So now the first big question is where the first DNA (ACTG)or RNA(ACGU) come from. Now it has already proven in the laboratory with the simulation of warm pool (being told by Charles Darwin) we can create the C and U (which is part of RNA). It is just a matter of time before we can create the whole thing and maybe build an organism from scratch. Many different combination of RNA different amino acid with some material (fatty acid) that make membrane, the first cells was formed. 

So the next question is how the first cells survive ? What they eat ? How they reproduce ? So I believe this will be the condition of the first cells
1.  It is floating around on the sea and just follow the flow
2. The first cells eat the organic material (amino acid that found a lot on the sea that time ). I believe the first cells do not have mouth it is just the amino acid that come inside the membrane.
3. I believe that the first cells do not know how to reproduce, it is the wind force and water flow that separate one cell into two, it will took by chance if the separated cells has enough components to be alive. so it is took time for the first cells to become many.

So after the first cells alive how it can become now ?
The next thing that happen is what we called evolution and that is a really long process. To understand the process we need to understand DNA a little bit. The DNA is just a chain of 4 different type non organic material (A-T and C-G) and when the chain is changing in sequence, the organism will have different characteristic. This is what we called mutation. The organism changing their characteristic by mutation, they will continue to pass their characteristic to the next organism since they already have different characteristic embedded in their DNA. The next thing that happened was the natural selection, the strong characteristic organism will survive and the not strong characteristic organism will extinct.

The next question I got is how come a single cell organism become the multiple cell organism ?
I believe that the answer on that lies on the science book that I read when I was a child and also from my teacher that explained that to me when I am in my high school. Please imagine that the earth is full with one single cell organism but the organic material almost gone, they need to find a source for their energy so some of them evolve to break down chemical substance (hydrogen sulfide) into energy, it's called chemosynthesis (this kind of organism still found in the deepest part of the sea where the light can not get through, all the organism there do not develop eyes since there is no light, they get the chemical from the magma and the lava from underwater volcanoes down below). Some of them taken the light as their energy which is photosynthesis that we know now. Others taken their energy by eating the other organism that is also one cells organism. So just imagine there will be a strong one cell organism that will eat the other one. In response into this, the weaker cells perform a coordination to protect themselves. They join together and working together, We can still see one cell organism that behave like this. This coordination I believe to be the ancient form of multiple cell organism. The example of these kind of organism still alive today, it is called the super organism. So basically the multiple cell organism is just a single cell organism that is working together. So just imagine that each of your cell has their own DNA and code and each of your cells working together to perform their task to become you and make you alive.

There is someone asked me this question so how come that now we still have a single cells and not all become multiple cells or complex and well developed organism ?
As our evolution showed. It is all about the mutation and natural selection. If the DNA code mutate then it will have different organism, if it can survive then it can pass their characteristic to their next kind, but if it not then it will perished, but what happened to the one that is not mutate, they will still have the same characteristic and as the natural selection happened they might survive or not based on their condition, their ability to adapt and continue to reproduce.

I hope that it will be able to answer some of the question that you have and I hope that I can give a little bit of my knowledge that I get. I believe that I do not have all of the answer but this is the knowledge that I got for now and what I believe in. Hope that we all can know the real truth.

Moved in Netherland

Hi everyone,

Sorry that I haven't write anything for about 2 years. I had tried to fixed my life for a while. I had a lot of problem in the past 2 years, about the job, the religion and some others but everything is working out now. I like where I am now, how I live now and what I do. I am afraid I cannot tell all of my problem to you but I believe that I reach into solution and reach a good state now. There is a lot has changed in my life and I believe I grew to be a better man. So here is my current status
  1. Lives in Eindhoven and will be staying here for at least 2 years, hopefully more
  2. Work as Software Technology Trainee in Eindhoven University of Technology
  3. Happy to be single but hoping to find the right girl to live with for the rest of my life.
  4. I consider myself to be atheist now, since all of the science knowledge that I got just in the past two years can explain where the live come from, If you say about religion. I think my religion will be science. I will write further about this later on.
So that will be the update I can tell now. Hope all the best for everyone.

"Software Agents for Stock Market Trading" - My First Book

Hi everyone,

I just want to share with you that I have published my first book. The book is my project thesis for my master degree. I wrote down all the experiment that I have done for creating software agents for stock market trading. I built my simulation and test the software agents on my simulation using real transaction data.

It gives me a really good result and I think that I can apply it in a real world. At first I am not sure about sharing this as a book, but after a lot of thinking I finally I publish it. I supposed this knowledge can be share with everyone to make people change their mind about putting money on forex or stock market, because in near future all the transaction will be done automatically using software agents. This agents will not be so smart like people, but it will have several advantages for being automatic. It will not have feeling or time limitation so it can control and keep track on the stock market 24hours. The stock market and forex market has already move towards this trend. The question is "Can you beat this agents ?" Because the agents will get money for sure.

I hope that I am sharing a little bit of my knowledge to you. This is the link to my book from amazon.

My Book in Amazon



Hope that everyone can read my work. Hopefully I can open your mind about the software agents.

Best Regards,

Djohan Wahyudi.
