Last night, I enjoyed reading "Owari-monogatari(latter)" written by Ishin Nishio-san.

In the book, the scene that the hero and heroine competed in singing songs with scores from the karaoke-machine appeared.

As an engineer, I can determine that the score is not trustworthiness absolutely.

The parameters of the machine must be tuned by engineers.

I can estimate how the engineers make the score algorism.

(1)analysis of key frequency, (2)calculation of the time between specified points of sound, (3)making score as synchronic ratios from the (2)(3).

Maybe there looks like the above three points.

No engineer tries to load another function from the view points of memory and CPU and have spirit to do them.

According to the above parameters, the score becomes worse, the better she sings a song.

So, I think that Ms. Hitagi Senjyougahara doesn't let her down.

-----

When I was a college student, there were many branches that showed "Computer fortune-telling" in college festival. I know well that are squiffy doo.

My wife who majored in English literature input the programming code to personal computer.

"Great! Did you design the algorism?"

I was surprised to heat it from her, she said,

"I just input meaningless many characters from a PC magazine"

The period absolutely existed that

Everybody believe anything with the word "computer”, and everybody respected me only because I could use computer.

Once, the days made me happy overwhelmingly with no reason.

In Japan, "Ninomiya Kinzirou" is a very famous historical person, you know. but most people don't know what he was rewarded with good results.

His formal name is "Ninomiya Sontoku". He was a agricultural administration measure coordinator.

He displayed his talents for revival of the flood damage, advice to the local government (Odawara feudal clan) for the issue of famine, and finance reform.

But he is not a historical person for both my second daughter and me. He is a mental prop itself.

-----

He was a radical walking reader.

He practiced "walking reading", and made some good fruits. He is one of the obvious example.

For us at "Walking reader" school, his life style is a golden rule in our life, and a typical antithesis against the critics who blame for "walking reading".

Recently, the imitators who are called "Walking Smart phone" are annoying us "Walking reader" school.

I cannot put up with such unripe people, who has no ideal of "Ninomiya Sontoku" and no technique of walking reading.

(Continuation from yesterday)

Remaining our life time is really short despairingly.

In this despairing short period, "getting more than two interests at the same time" is same as "terminating the life without mastering anything, like "this"".

There is an advice of the novel prize winner, that is

"Though there are a lot of problems we should resolve in the world, the time we have to spend for each problem is same. So we should think of which problem we try first seriously and carefully".

I think that it is utterly logical.

If I have time to make the time wave clock module, I think that I should try another problem (for the global peace, for example).

If I have been able to understand the background logically, I had already get the novel "engineer" prize.

-----

In the comic "Chihayafuru", Harada-sensei said,

"I am not going to be strong, even if I bet everything in my youth" Hey guy. Why do you say it before betting anything ?"

I think that Harada-sensei's comment is just an argument,

But Harada-sensei, if they cannot achieve the purpose in spite of spending their youth period, it becomes a big loss doesn't it?

(To be continued)

My senior daughter wanted to learn about "Three Kingdoms". When I asked the reason, it was me.

By the way,

"If you can talk about "Three Kingdoms" in singles party, you will become popular with men"

It was me that told her the above.

I think that "Three Kingdoms" is more interesting than Hollywood heroes at least.

However, on the other hand, among "Three Kingdoms" fans, there are many people who make them feel quite unpleasant.

-----

Currently, I am listening to "Three Kingdoms" on Youtube (×watching), but this is an amazing feature, full of 100 episodes in full.

Normally, it will become boring for such this long content, but this is quite "interesting".

First of all, it is decisively different from other contents that we can recognize that huge number of characters in visuals.

And the performances of these characters are also unique and fun.

It seemed to me, that in the battle scene, like red walls, kanto, and Illeung, they are much more powerful than Hollywood movie making full use of CG,

-----

However, I am afraid that this content is "interesting" only for those who think "interesting".

Slaughter, betrayal, conspiracy, buddy, retribution, are repeated endlessly. There is a scene in which hundreds of thousands of young soldiers dies of dogs due to the elderly in the main character around the end chapter. The story give me a feeling of "I am sure to be really careful".

Well, what I want to say,

"Three Kingdoms" is not an enjoyable content with the intention of "getting a man in singles party".

-----

So, as me as a father, my senior daughter should not spend time on such "disgusting content"

at her brilliant campus life to start from now

I told you again and again that I believe

"Easy is a justice"

"Technology make our life easier"

Therefore,

"Technology is a justice". This is my cherished motto as an engineer.

-----

However, it is also true that "technology" often leaves behind "human being".

An technology that ignores human's capability and environment, is not enough for a justice.

Recently I can understand deeply this fact, when not only returning home, but also attending at the neighborhood association(NA) meeting.

-----

I calculated the ratio between digital native and non-native frankly before.

The result was 6:4.

In short, 60% persons in my town are not annoyed by IT works and services of NA.

Company and government offices will discard the 40% persons and drive the IT works and services.

In my opinion, "IT is a technology and a technology makes me easier."

Of course, I know well that the purpose of IT is "money(cutting job)"

(To be continued)

(Continuation from yesterday)

I think it has increased considerably compared to the past, however, the view that high school girls are in such places is still "unusual."

And we tend to avoid being considered "rare."

Because we know well that "inconspicuous" is an advantage to live.

By the way, "the best policy is to keep your head down" is not a proverb in me, but a law of nature.

-----

However, eating at a beef restaurant or a standing buckwheat noodle is "unusual," but it is not "immoral." It is natural.

As a researcher, I have a feeling that I would like to verify this problem, in a social experiment of "Yoshinoya for women only" or "Standing buckwheat noodle shop with women's day of the week".

In addition, I am interested in the customer attraction rate when the condition of "no companion with a friend" or "only one visitor" is attached.

-----

Everyone at the fast food management team.

How about these social experiments as digging up potential customers?

The other day,

""A forefront of corona infection battle" sent by a doctor to an engineer"

I received the second e-mail from Dr.Shibata,"Shibata, the cutting in two under train wheels" the author of this column.

Today, in response to the email, I will a "Request email from me (Ebata)" sent to me by Dr.Shibata.

====== From here ======

Dear Dr.Shibata.

I read your email.

Basically, I don't think there is a logical contradiction between the email I received last time and the one I received this time.

You wrote "change of opinion" yourself, but I couldn't feel anything wrong.

It was a remarkable "supplement" that strengthened the previous content.

That aside.

-----

At the moment, the content of Dr.Shibata's e-mail, which has been published by me, as my my contribution, has over 5,000 tweets and messages.

I have read all of these messages (true). Many readers seem to understand the content of Dr.Shibata's previous email correctly, and have come up with the same conclusions as Dr.Shibata's email this time.

This is, in my experience, a pretty “miracle” situation.

Both EE Times Japan and I were preparing for the premise of "Flame", but at the moment no flame has occurred.

I think this is because Dr.Shibata's content has solved the two difficult (conflicting) issues, that is the content has a logical structure while while snuggling up with the reader.

However, this means that only those who have the ability to understand Dr.Shibata's content are likely to be "selected".

-----

By the way,

In this SNS message, the word "long" appears almost entirely.

In the field of my engineers, we do not call this content "long."

After all, Dr.Shibata's column is written in Japanese, without jargon, and in colloquial language.

Compared to the fact that we engineers read more than 30 patent specifications (including English text sometimes) over 30 pages in one day, he burden of reading this column is likely that,

"At the elegant tea party where the cherry blossoms are blooming, while making to a haiku poem, with hearing birdsong"

Well, it may be unusually long for a web article, however, all of my articles are basically long.

This may be an evidence that I (we?) are at 2-3 σ with the average of society.

(Every rude junior emphasizes it and scolds me.)

Restless talk

-----

If you are not annoyed about this email (the 2nd ) of Dr.Shibata, I would like to make it public on our website.

There is no public relations power like EE Times Japan, however for "many readers"

(Honestly speaking, it doesn't matter, but just for "me")

I am convinced that the content must be kept.

So I may make some tampering to make it easier for me in the future to read.

I hope that we will work as the followings, as an approach, (Step.1) I edit, (Step.2) Dr.Shibata checks, (Step.3) If we get the final OK, (Step.4) I disclose the URL on my blog.

I will do it without the burden of Dr.Shibata, so I would appreciate it if you could consider it.(I do not think there is a need for super-early publication like the last time)

Thank you for your continued support.

Tomoichi Ebata
