Why People Want Another People to Fail

A tribe going to attack other tribe over scarce resources


In the stone age era, it was easy to tell people to be nice by telling them some mythical stories about the punishment they will get if they do terrible things. But in the modern era where people can learn any information quickly, they have reasons to not believe in any such thing, people are just getting harder to control.

Humans are fundamentally carnivores, we hunt animals for food. We make a sharp arm to defend our tribe when another tribe tries to attack us, we have a very cruel and selfish history in the past that is passed from generation to generation.

To go to the top chain of food, or to go to the top of social class we have to be the strongest. Sometimes by using any means necessary to achieve that goal. And that inner beast that is descended from our past is still inside us. We get jealous when the Success of a coworker means bad for us because we are such a selfish species.

In the past, food can be very rare to find, we have not yet discovered a better way of farming. Our caveman's brain suddenly triggers danger whenever seeing another tribe try to take the same food we have. that we should get rid of those other tribes, we must attack them to secure the limited resources we have.

Some people are genuinely good and willing to sacrifice for others, even though it's very rare to find such people. Usually, it's a parent willing to suffer for the better of their kids, another example can be found in someone who has a religious motive and is willing to do a scary thing like going to war in the name of their god.

But still, the motive of that sacrifice is still very selfish, why they are willing to sacrifice for others has to be a feeling of inner satisfaction and a delusion that this sacrifice makes them feel happy afterward. It's not far away from an advantage to ourselves.

The caveman DNA still persists inside our body, which does not fit in in the current modern situation, because we are living in bigger cities with millions of people that are very hard to control, so we must obey the rules, show good manners, and making cooperation to each other for the better and wider good. We live with fewer consequences but also less real stuff to feel.

It is much safer these days, but still, the world has many problems because we only have one planet to share with billions of people. The Modern world problem is not deadly tribe war anymore, but rather to expand in order to survive a drastic need and demand for more resources. The solution is Elon Musk's way of thinking, that we need to expand to another plane or far away stars and galaxies to colonialism and extract the resource from far away.

Competition is not pleasant, people try to be better than others, making some people feel defeated and eventually making them less sympathetic to each other. It certainly has a negative impact on someone close to them.

Even in the modern era, we still need some older wise person to guide our life. We learn to better handle the worst situation in our mind by learning philosophy. 

Stoic says that external factors are something we can't handle and we shouldn't care about them. Focus on yourself to improve yourself, let us solve our self problems, and not judge others.

Be kind to others as we expect them to treat us that way too.

ERROR 1348 Column Password Is Not Updatable When Updating MySQL Root Password

MySQL and MariaDB password As already mentioned in the title of this blog, this error message sometimes occurred when we are trying to update our root password database, either MySQL or MariaDB, The error says: ERROR 1348 (HY000): Column 'Password' is not updatable This is because if we use this SQL command to update our database root password, and it turn out to be Restricted by MySQL to use update on mysql database. UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('1234') WHERE User='root'; The solutions for MySQL Error1348 So you can not update a user password using Update commands, to update the password, use ALTER commands instead. like the following. ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '1234'; And then you need to do the flush privileges to commit previous queries (that alter command above) into the system, simply do like this. flush privileges; So now you have your root with password 1234. Although it is recommended to

Reactive Spring Logo This is maybe a very simple task, but for those of you that may not be familiar with WebFlux found it difficult to create a Rest API that handles upload and download in Reactive spring application. Create the skeleton Spring project Create a new project, go to start.spring.io , on the dependencies section, add Spring Reactive Web. Generate and extract it into your desired project location. Instead of using spring-boot-starter-web, use spring-boot-starter-webflux instead in your pom.xml. Here’s the pom.xml for our Reactive Rest API project. Create our Rest controller Now that you have set to use WebFlux instead of the usual web, we have to change a little bit in the Controller class that handles the API endpoints. It doesn’t change much but you have to wrap the Response in Mono and the request parameter to FilePart. So our upload and download file controller will look like this. Create utility to handle file upload We need to structure our project better, so we cr

Spring Kafka - how to use ReplyingKafkaTemplate send and reply synchronously

By -

Microservice Spring with Apache Kafka Kafka is an asynchronous messaging queuing system, but when you have a case in your project that you need to have the result immediately from another service you can do that quite easily. Kafka from the client side produces a message to the server side, then waiting for the server to return back the message exactly what the client wants. It’s identified in the kafka header request named KafkaHeaders.CORRELATION_ID and a topic where the server should send. If the server side produces the same correlation id to the same topic in the request, then the client side will catch that message as its reply. Although you can work with kafka from a different framework and language other than Java and Spring. Here’s in this example i just specifically giving the example of sending and replying kafka messages using Spring Boot. The Project Overview The client-project will send a string message to the server-project over kafka, then the server-project wil
