Mahfud Md: Indonesia Ada Kemajuan, Meski Banyak Korupsi

 https://nasional.tempo.co/read/1458327/mahfud-md-indonesia-ada-kemajuan-meski-banyak-korupsi/full&view=ok

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Menteri Koordinator Bidang Politik, Hukum, dan Keamanan Mahfud Md mengatakan kebijakan ekonomi Indonesia banyak diintervensi oleh politik. Sehingga memicu banyak praktek korupsi.

Korupsi, kata dia, dibangun oleh proses-proses yang secara demokratis benar, tapi substansinya salah. "Kasus-kasus yang kadang kala merugikan tujuan negara itu, ditempuh secara demokrasi melalui proses-proses demokrasi," kata Mahfud dalam diskusi daring, Sabtu, 1 Mei 2021.

Meski begitu, Mahfud meminta masyarakat tak sepenuhnya kecewa terhadap pemerintah yang banyak dinilai koruptif atau bahkan oligarkis. Pasalnya, ia mengatakan dari waktu ke waktu, kemajuan terus dilakukan.

"Tentu kehidupan demokrasi kita harus terus diperbaiki, tapi kemajuan yang sudah dicapai juga tak boleh dinafikan," kata Mahfud.

 Ia menyebut dari sejak era Presiden Soekarno, tingkat kemiskinan terus ditekan dari yang awalnya sangat tinggi, hingga mencapai 11,9 persen pada akhir era Presiden Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Di era pertama pemerintahan Presiden Joko Widodo, angka ini terus ditekan hingga 9,1 persen.

Masuk ke periode kedua, Mahfud menyebut tingkat kemiskinan kembali naik ke 9,7 akibat pandemi Covid-19 yang menyerang sejak tahun lalu. "Artinya ada kemajuan meski banyak korupsinya. Indonesia ini kaya raya. Meski dikelola secara koruptif, manfaatnya tetap banyak kepada rakyat. Apalagi jika dikelolanya nanti secara bersih dari korupsi," kata Mahfud.

Mahfud mengatakan korupsi memang bisa dilihat sebagai fenomena pelanggaran hukum. Tapi dalam disertasinya, ia mengatakan baik buruknya hukum itu tergantung pada demokrasi. Ia mengatakan, jika demokrasinya berjalan baik, maka hukum akan baik. Kalau demokrasi buruk, maka hukum juga akan buruk.

"Konfigurasi politik demokratis tampil, hukum akan menjadi responsif. Tapi konfigurasi politik tampil secara otortier dan hegemonik, maka hukum akan tampil sangat-sangat konservatif," kata Mahfud Md.

The Difference Between LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Home Edition (#31313) and LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 (#45544)

http://robotsquare.com/2013/11/25/difference-between-ev3-home-edition-and-education-ev3/ This article covers the difference between the LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Home Edition and LEGO MINDSTORMS Education EV3 products. Other articles in the ‘difference between’ series: * The difference and compatibility between EV3 and NXT ( link ) * The difference between NXT Home Edition and NXT Education products ( link ) One robotics platform, two targets The LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 robotics platform has been developed for two different target audiences. We have home users (children and hobbyists) and educational users (students and teachers). LEGO has designed a base set for each group, as well as several add on sets. There isn’t a clear line between home users and educational users, though. It’s fine to use the Education set at home, and it’s fine to use the Home Edition set at school. This article aims to clarify the differences between the two product lines so you can decide which...

Logic Analyzer with STM32 Boards

https://sysprogs.com/w/how-we-turned-8-popular-stm32-boards-into-powerful-logic-analyzers/ How We Turned 8 Popular STM32 Boards into Powerful Logic Analyzers March 23, 2017 Ivan Shcherbakov The idea of making a “soft logic analyzer” that will run on top of popular prototyping boards has been crossing my mind since we first got acquainted with the STM32 Discovery and Nucleo boards. The STM32 GPIO is blazingly fast and the built-in DMA controller looks powerful enough to handle high bandwidths. So having that in mind, we spent several months perfecting both software and firmware side and here is what we got in the end. Capturing the signals The main challenge when using a microcontroller like STM32 as a core of a logic analyzer is dealing with sampling irregularities. Unlike FPGA-based analyzers, the microcontroller has to share the same resources to load instructions from memory, read/write th...
