2014-09-05 "Ebata-san. Are you a believer of Nazism?"

After a long time, I have finished reading a foreign book of science fiction.

The title was "Black order” that includes a lot of science tips. I enjoyed it.

I seem to be disposed to approach books whose title includes "Nazi" or "Hitler".

My junior coworker, who know the above, asked me that

"Ebata-san. Are you a believer of Nazism?"

"It's the other way around. I am standing on the side of "Fucking Nazi!""

-----

Actually "…trotzdem Ja zum Leben sagen: Ein Psychologe erlebt das Konzentrationslager (Kosel-Verlag, Munchen 1977)" impressed me deeply with pain.

Recently, I managed to finished reading "Die Falscher" (not movie but book) with pinch-faced.

-----

I am confident that I am going to become a victim against terrorist of reactionary forces easily.

I have already released several columns, that some person might believe that I am an ant establishmentarian.

Also, I could not erase the facts.

Therefore I keep giving me an "Orange alert" caution, because I could always run away as soon as possible.


2015-09-05 I also said that I who was in two years ago is not me in the present.

(Continuation from yesterday)

The other day I wrote that after applying for a patent application, a juror of the Patent Office is going to send the notification of reasons of refusal to me after two years.

It means that they say "No".

In order to change their impression, I have to set up our opinions to them or change contents of the application. Anyway the actions annoy me.

To make matter worse,

"I can understand my invention I made before."

I also said that I who was in two years ago is not me in the present.

Generally speaking, he is a complete stranger.

The patent application of this complete stranger is absolutely nonsense.

Why this foolish guy could not write his invention explicitly?

I have to read his application with my anger.

(To be continued)


2016-09-05 On the other hand, it is a pity to enforce the front-line busy teachers to use these tools or applications.

(Continuation from yesterday)

Engineers like me, should provide the teachers with a copy-guard technologies, however, these technologies has almost already completed.

Though there is a similarity determination technology, it might not be popular for quotes from the Internet, or copy and paste among friends.

On the other hand, it is a pity to enforce the front-line busy teachers to use these tools or applications.

In addition, students are used to using these technologies.

An effort to avoid the waring of these tools, is finally to make the students understood the contents of the report deeply.

Finally, all of the above will achieve the first target, after all, I think.

-----

However, I am afraid that there is a problem of this method.

This method needs a major premise, that all juniro high school students can use WP.

2017-09-05 "Sunk-Cost Fallacy"

The other day, I wrote about the movie "In This Corner of the World".

In this movie, only one time, "Suzu" who is a heroin, is driven by wild emotion.

At the moment I watched the scene, I reminded the phrase,

"Sunk-Cost Fallacy"

-----

"Sunk-Cost" is literally "sunk cost", and to be honest, it means "wasted investment cost".

For example,

I have been a performer for twenty years. one or two people who has same career like me, become a smash hit every year, Next year, I may become a smash hit. If you stopped the entertainer here, what was my life for this 20 years?

I have been studying about judicial exam for ten years. If I give up the judicial exam this year in the 11th , what was the past ten years for me?

Our company has been doing research on this technology, putting enormous budget and talent into the company. If we stop it here, what should our company do from tomorrow?

Japan has continued to put in taxes of 50 million yen every day (×every year) to put the fast breeder reactor into practical use, which will realize not rely on overseas energy for thousands of years in the future. If we stopped it here, what was the enormous amount of taxes exceeding 1 trillion yen that we've entered so far?

Recently, he who lives together, lost his job, and he came to use violence. I think I should be separated. But, I wonder if I can find a new man who will live with me. Moreover if I had not married to him, what was my seven years that I continued to associate with him?

And so on.

2018-09-05 "At this rate, an city hall will be an application of smartphones"

(Continuation from yesterday)

This time, I had to do a "relay race" to collect family register of deceased father, from a city hall to another city hall.

If "black-chain" consolidates our records of birth and moving, we will not have to do the stupid "traveling salesman problem".

According to the system of "officially registered seal", I am impressed that "why this system work well".

For example, it is possible to make a "fake seal". In order to get "seal registration certificate", we can ask someone to make a "fake driver's license".

(An administrative institution might have an inquiry system by the driver's license number)

However, the way to proof of "I am what I am" is guaranteed by the "complex procedures" after all.

As ID system, it is better to use a DNA identification device using finger sweat and fingerprint/

For my mother in bed without a toe to the floor, I will get her ID by the above process and send it to bank. It will be enough.

For succession and insurance, if we can get methods and certificates that are guaranteed by non-rewrite, the protocol works will be perished from banks.

This means, not only for banks, but also for city halls

"At this rate, an city hall will be an application of smartphones"

might be coming soon.

-----

Actually, convenience stores are used instead of government offices by My Number card.

This time, I got all the necessary documents (stamp certificate, family register, resident card) on inheritance at a late-night convenience store near my parents house.

It is scary just thinking that "I must get back to the city office at my home residence".

(To be continued)


2019-09-05 "Let's leave him to "kill" him/her"

(Continuation from yesterday)

(2)High-risk

Energy of movement is in proportion of square of the speed (as same as the fatigue calculation, I mentioned before)

The impact(of steel case, e.g) of the crash of the 110km/h speed is going to double that of the 80 km/h.

This is not an assumption but a fact from the law of Energy of movement.

The following is too easy, however I know in my bones,

For four people in a family, two people survive at back seat absolutely, not all death.

-----

If riding a motor bike on a high way, I think you could get a feeling as soon as possible.

When I was college student, I used a motor bike for a long distance, but I could not speed more than 120km/h for fear of death.

In fact, the mortality rate of motor bike on a high way, is extremely high.

As far as I know, it is a story that is not "what percentage" but "how many times".

So I'm more afraid of the bike appearing backwards than any "tailgating".

In such a case, I intentionally approach the left side to slow down and makes the bike overtake.

"Let's leave him to "kill" him/her"

I think that.

(To be continued)


2020-09-05 "I'm scared that tomorrow will come just by thinking "I have to eat again""

I was reviewing my old column last night and noticed a comment attached to it about diet (eating disorders).

"I'm scared that tomorrow will come just by thinking "I have to eat again""

-----

When I saw this fierce phrase, I was about to cry.

The Devil's Disease of not "not eating" but "not being able to eat" -- Anorexia

This column is a real report of a real-life experience where even I, a "man" who "lived half a century", easily went into an "anorexia" spiral.

And it's not hard to imagine that for a "teenage" "girl" the process of getting to anorexia is as easy as "rolling downhill".

In this column, I explain the mechanism leading to anorexia using only my (Ebata's) own body "experiments", "observations" and "physical phenomena", eliminating all kinds of subjectivity and emotions.

-----

I also heard that parents who read this column use it as a resource to explain anorexia to anorexic children (mostly girls).

Please use this without limit.

You don't need to contact me about printing, teaching materials, lectures, or any non-profit use.

(*) However, EE Times Japan has an exclusive license to use on the Web.

-----

If my estimation (simulation) is correct,

- The number of deaths from anorexia nervosa in Japan is 584 per year (3000 to 4000 in France).

- More than half (or all) of the young women in Japan (Japan) die from anorexia.

This means that "young women are dieting to die" (of course, the extreme theory) also holds.

-----

Parents, please explain to your child that

"failing to lose weight" is "good fortune that has escaped death"

Especially for teenage girls.


2021-09-05 "Because I have so much to write/say"

My columns are long.

However, "long" means a lot of research, a lot of calculations, a lot of diagrams, and a lot of writing.

And, I spend a lot of time using my brains and facing the computer for a long time.

So,

"I love how long Ebata's columns are!"

I think it would be nice if one of them would comment that way, but I have yet to see such a comment.

-----

I'm wondering if people who comment "more concise" would do so even if it's a romance novel.

I know there are many kinds of romance novels, but the framework of a story is basically like this.

(Step 1) They encounter

(Step 2) Various troubles/events occur.

(Step 3) They break up or get together

Three lines. You can finish reading this in three seconds.

However, I don't know anyone who says that romance novels are "long".

Well, even if you think so, I think it is because we all know that it is "nonsense", "rude" and "vulgar" to claim so.

-----

There are many things that need to be written in short form.

Reports to be submitted to superiors and organizations must be written with as clear an argument as possible.

To begin with, the first thing that newcomers to the workforce are thoroughly trained in is how to write a concise report.

Especially in the case of engineers, a huge amount of time (about 2 years) is spent on thorough training (I think this probably hasn't changed).

If it is a research paper, you have to summarize the results of a 200+ page study into a few pages.

If it is a conference proceedings, it is two pages.

Compression algorithms such as zip, tar, cab, 7z, and so on are nothing

Don't underestimate "sentence compression skills" of our "trained engineers"

-----

So why are my columns so long?

The reason for this is clear.

"Because I have so much to write/say"

Then, one might say, Ebata cannot criticize "the story of a principal of an elementary and middle school with no presentation skills," but this is an unfair criticism.

This is because I do not 'abuse children in any way,' such as keeping them standing up in the hot sun and making them collapse from anemia.

And I insist, 'If you don't want to read it, you have a 100% guaranteed right to stop in the middle.

Moreover, the editorial department of EE Times Japan also measures how many pages of Ebata's column a reader leaves.

This is why I have been trying to devise various ways to compose a "long column" (which I will keep as a "trade secret").

Anyway, I am very unhappy to be lumped in with the self-satisfied, boring, and unentertaining stories of incompetent school principals.

-----

I am currently working on this month's column, using MindManager.

I'm in the middle of a "deadline crunch," and it's during these times that I'm unlucky enough to stumble upon interesting content.

Right now, I'm hooked on "Marginal Operation" by Yuri Shibamura, and it's slowly stealing away my precious time before the deadline.

(To be continued)


2022-09-05 "I will be in trouble if I comment about a cult religion group"

A few days ago, I publishded the following diary.

I was surprised to receive "subscription request" e-mails from more people than I expected.

(After zero applicant after two consecutive days, I will publish it. )

-----

Watching the reactions of this columns,

I was disappointed, saying "I missed the mark", however, now I don't know the how to evaluate this column.

Just a hypothesis,

"I will be in trouble if I comment about a cult religion group"

I wonder if some readers might know the reality well.

-----

In fact, they are the worst. I know well that.


2023-09-05 On the other hand, I have tried illustrations using the generated AI, but it does not produce the picture I want.

The capabilities of generative AI concerning programming are no longer in doubt.

On the other hand, I have tried illustrations using the generated AI, but it does not produce the picture I want.

Maybe I'm not using it correctly; anyway, I want a line drawing that represents the concept.

For example,

'A high school student using multiple computers to do market analysis.'

' Me on the train, looking up to the sky with the news of my father's death.'

Parents and Children Scared of Vaccine Intake."

And well, I wonder if there is such a generative AI that can write out an elementary line diagram (no color required) for a one-phrase order like this.

If you know of any, please let me know.

-----

Well, it is not a time that I don't like because I can go blank when I am illustrating, but, in my case, it takes too much time.
