Akibat punahnya bahasa (termasuk hilangnya kemampuan membaca aksara). Ada lontar warisan keluarga yg dikeramatkan krn dikira isinya mantra tolak bala dalam aksara kawi, setelah diteliti dan diterjemahkan ternyata isinya resep masakan yg ditulis salah satu nenek buyut mereka.

@historyinmemes Nolan is awesome

one day there will be a text2manim model that solves mathematics education forever professors will just describe what they are trying to explain and receive a fully animated math explainer video in return
