"The books of Monogatari series" that includes "Bake-monogatrari" have become not only my favorite books but the reference books of my columns.
For example, I have used the books, like,
"Well, in this case, I have read a great expression phrase in second half of Hana-monogatari"
-----
The other day, I was really surprised to hear the word "Bake-monogatari" in two worker's chat on the train to my home.
Of course, I should not attempt to distinguish between people by appearance, however, the preferences of two old men were shared and it became to reach the level of the conversation.
I think that "It was absolutely extremely probability"
It is small at the same level as the probability of creating the universe. It should be called "nil".
Needless to say, I am very happy to hear the conversation as a fun of "Monogatari-serised".
-----
Another day, I was through the front of the pachinko parlor.
In front of the pachinko parlor, in the uplink flag, there were
the characters "Pachinko Bake-monogatari" and the figures of Araragi-kun and Senjyougahara-san.

Though some persons think that Ebata makes an excuse, I have a confidential background.
To tell you the truth, I measure the level of my English translation ability objectively.
here.
I don't assume that you know the above page I have had.
And I continue to check the access counts from overseas.
In conclusion,
there is no access from overseas.
I am afraid that the quality of my translated English is not enough to make them read.( or the contents doesn't interest them)
So My English is too insufficient to carry my intentions to the world correctly.
Of course, it might be joyful to dare to try it.
-----
Anyway, I am , who keep writing English sentences everyday without readers abroad,
cool am not I ?
Well, no matter what anyone says, only I believe it so.
Last night, when I came back home, the second daughter watched "Chihayafuru", in the HDD recorder.
"Chihayafuru" is a comic and an animation that depicts youth who enthuses competitive KARUTA game. (the rest is omitted)
In the KARUTA club whose leader is "Chihaya Hayase" as a high school girl, there is a boy who keep recording tremendous data of the member's game process, whose name is
"Tsukue-kun" ( that means "Mr.desk")
H tries to analyse not only his club member's fighting styles but also adversary game trends, and finally works for an data analyst to make his team win.
-----
Ebata; "It is absolutely "Tsukue-kun" who is a leading character of this animation, neither "Chihaya" nor "Taichi","Arata".
Second daughter(SD):"No, no, no, absolutely not".
Ebata:"What are you talking? If "Chihaya" try to aim to the Queen of KARUTA tournament, what she really need is not "Taichi" "Arata" but "Tsukue-kun" isn't it?"
SD:"No, a high school girl who executes actions with temporary emotions and feeling each day, and some nice guys are around the girl are needed in the juvenile story."
Ebata:"It is not enough to accomplish her KPI(Key Performance Indicator) by love affair. If she want to do it, she should concentrate "logic" and "statistics"
SD:"..."
Ebata:"I need Tsukue-Kun really in my team, though, "Chihaya" and "Taichi" are not needed.

I am using the IME called "SKK" that enable me to type letters at "thinking speed".
Ordinary people might be quite difficult to enter characters with this SKK, So this IME may also be a security of personal computers.
On the other hand, there is also a huge disadvantage that few people can support my work, using my computer.
I will ask to work with Mouse operation, or, not in English, but in the alphabet.
-----
Anyway,
When I say "I'm sorry, I am using a metamorphosis IME ..."
the engineer who can reply "Oh, is it SKK?"
can win the trust from me at that moment.
Nonetheless, I am not doing anything to force my family to use SKK, because it is too "Maniac".
However, If no SKK, I think I cannot complete writing up 30 sheets of manuscripts.
-----
Be in trouble, recently, I have known that there is SKK running on my smartphone (Android).
If I buy a Bluetooth compatible keyboard, I can do manuscript writing with a smart-phone anywhere, without carrying a personal computer,
I come to be fascinated with my dream.
Returning to reality, however, I swear to my heart once again "I will never install SKK nor buy a keyboard."
with reprimanding myself, "don't forget the original purpose!"
There are a lot of video-cameras.
Angle of camera can also be changed variously
There are video archives of decades past.
There is enough computer resources
-----
It is really mysterious.
Why will not they use AI technology to make an official game a referee?
-----
I've heard that story that referees also has a role of director in excitement of the game. It it true?
Today, new my column is released, so I take a day off.... Don't I ?

Most of the internet news is often done by cutting off some of the words in an article and giving a title that is completely different from the purpose of the article.
This is done to increase the PV of the article (the number of accesses to the page view count page), and is called "catchy".
The catchy is a very important factor, because the number of PVs changes dramatically.
However, there are other vicious things in catchy that is "different from the purpose of the article". and "making the meaning of the opposite meaning" or "making the contents of the counter argument appear as a conclusion".
Many of us who are readers are deprived of our valuable time by this catchy, and we are guided by articles that are completely different from what we expect.
-----
I used to publish it on a different web publisher (that is not "EE Times Japan", and this "catchy" may not reflect the content of my article, and I have requested changes several times.
I can endure "exaggeration" and "overemphasis".
However, it is annoying to be subject that is different from what I intended, or is not what I didn't mention.
The reason is that
quite a few people in the world criticize me or my articles, without reading "just one line".
(To be continued)
I continue to work at home and cook my own lunch at home.
These days the whole family is home more and more often, and we have much more opportunities to eat dinner together.
However, as for lunch, each of us cook and eat what we want at our own time.
It's inevitably going to be a simple noodle dish, and I get bored indeed.
-----
In the Ebata's house, my wife put the stocked emergency foods, which are past their expiration date into baskets and place them in the kitchen.
My family takes what they want out of it and eats it. Due to the nature of preserved foods, they are retort foods.
Speaking of retorts, curry and rice would be the best.
When I make a curry from a curry roux, it's a very hot curry that no other family member can eat except me.
However, for me, the retort curry is not "spicy" at all.
-----
And, well, I have my own take on retort curry.
In a frying pan, lightly fry the chilies and chopped garlic, then add about 100g of Cut the chicken and eggplant into bite-sized pieces and throw them in.
After the chicken is cooked, pour the retort curry on it and mix it with the ingredients, cut the spinach into strips by hand and fry it until it becomes soft, and finally, throw in the Bavarone sauce.
Well, still, it's never out of the range of retort curry -- it's pretty good.
If you work at home and are in a lunch rut, give it a try.
Since the recent "Zero Reset Accident," I have been caught in a strange kind of intimidation.
"What if kobore.net or wp.kobore.net is broken by a server crash or server attack?"
-----
After installing WordPress last year, I have been truly amazed at how easy it is to store/publish data.
By simply throwing any information into WordPress at random, I can easily search for it when I encounter the same problem, saving me a horrible amount of my work time.
It's no exaggeration to say that WordPress is 'my second brain'.
Even "The Zero Reset Accident" is such a shock to me.
If kobore.net and wp.kobore.net are destroyed, I don't think I'll be able to get back on my feet.
-----
Of course, I also do regular full backups of my content.
However, the size of my website, which I started in 1993, is enormous (although the base is text).
There are many stories of "backed up archives could not be restored," and I've experienced it myself many times.
-----
Talking with a rude junior colleague the other day,
"Ebata-san. What would you do if the 100 patent specifications you have written in your life disappeared from the Patent Office's DB?"
I mumbled to myself,
"Seriously, I think I might kill myself"
As I wrote here, I need a "quantified number" to recognize myself -- at least for me.
------
So, I bought a complete Raspberry Pi 4 set the other day so that I will be able to continue to operate it even when "kobore.net or wp.kobore.net crashes by accident".
I am now going to start constructing and operating a local server that is a complete clone of kobore.net and wp.kobore.net.
Well, it will take some time, but it is the only way I can think of to free myself from the threat of server crashes and server attacks.
Now, the movie whose title is "The Garden of Hell" has been released on Amazon Prime.
Though someone don't like it, I think, it is amazing.
The movie gave me a shock, like as when I watched the movie of Live-action version of "Rurou Kenshin" on the plane from London.
-----
I was afraid that the battle actions scene by Japanese actress seems to be inferior to that of Hollywood movie, for example, Ms. Angelina Jolie in the movie of "Mr.& Mrs. Smith"
However, in the movie of "The Garden of Hell, Not only the main character, but also the supporting actors and extras plays amazing action battle.
According the action scene, I want give all performers my standing ovation.
I cannot image how much they trained and practiced for this movie. They are beyond my imagination.
-----
To tell the truth, I watched the trailer of this movie in the movie theater, and I felt "it must be on my mark". So I fully regretted not have gone to watch the movie.
However, I doubt if the movie is popular for many people.
For me, I can forget daily annoying about the gag and nonsense. It is perfect.
I like a term of "Master OL" and the actors who play OL workers are also good.
Let me try to watch it again.
You may be surprised to hear me say that one of the reasons I am working so hard to research in a working graduate school is because of "Marginal Operations" -- this is true.
However, my concern is not conflict or politics but the one-operation of telecommunication devices.
I have not included a citation or acknowledgment of the book in my paper (reviewers would be surprised if I did that).
However, if I can graduate properly, I would like to send a letter of thanks to Mr. Yuri Shibamura.
-----
The "Marginal Operations" series is held by the civic library where I live, and I have been borrowing it from there.
I don't buy books, not because I am sparing money, but because I am sparing space (in my home).
Still, I am holding off purchasing an e-book because I want a good paper book someday.
Anyway, the library where I live is good.
We are proud of our city's library, which has the gall to engage in a head-to-head battle with NHK.
-----
It would be arrogant of me to expect this library to have the entire "Marginal Operations" series.
This time, I purchased two books from Amazon.com that had not been in the library's collection for some time.
I told myself, 'Don't read it like going to eat it all up' -- but I finished two books on my way to and from the university in a day.
-----
"Not a good manner to read this"
"From now on, I will read the series as a "reward" after submitting patent specifications, research reports, and papers."
I vowed once again to do so.
