My second daughter continues "reading a book with walking" every day, as I also do it.

Though not only my family but neighbors give her a warring like "Dangerous!" "Stop it!", she said,

"My daddy also does it"

with her logic arming, and shows no signs of stopping it.

Ebata:"In my case, I do it in the middle of the night with head-light. It is safer than what you do."

I don't think that this excuse is a self-deception for not only her but me.

However, her action was going to be punished in an unexpected way.

-----

It was time when the second daughter went to school alone early in the morning every day for one week, for her jobs of the class.

In morning of one day, she was called out to by so-called "school crossing warden" of the pedestrian crossing.

"Don't worry. You can make your friends soon."

-----

- In an school road without the popularity,

- Lonely every day.

- A girl who walks while reading a book.

Who blames the "school crossing warden", if all these condition of him become wrong?

----

In fact,

"I am not lonely"

The second daughter seemed to fly into a rage.

From the 15th Oct. to the 2nd, Nov. I have argued the criticism of "friend supremacist",

This time, I presented new paradigm of "loneliness supremacist" and "loneliness fundamentalist" as an opposite concept of "friend supremacist".

About this argument, "rude junior coworker" gave us a comment, who has frequently appeared recently. I will introduce this comment to you.

(From here)

Ebata-san.

I think that any kinds of "fundamentalism" is not good.

I think that it is a great saying of your senior daughter "the concept of "loneliness supremacist" is rude for real lonely person". I think she is a brilliant girl.

(Syncopation)

In conclusion, I want to say,

- "Rude manner for real lonely person" is a great prospect.

" Ebata-san's vision of "loneliness supremacist" is good. But I think that it is missing the aspect of "friend supremacist". Most persons in the science and engineering majors, are often about to reach this mind.

(To here)

Really?

Do I need the explanation of "friend supremacist" anymore?

According to the "friend supremacist", there have been flood tide of contents around us.

Let me pick some examples up.

In greetings of the principal of the entrance ceremony, or address in reply of the graduation ceremony, "you can find good friends from this school life...", "we could get eternal friend of my life in this school..."

"Relationship" of the Buddhism, Christian "neighborly love"

Hit counts are more than 307k with phrase of "importance of having friend" in Google search. In contract, zero hit with phrase of "needless, unnecessary or unneeded of friend"

"Our bond is beyond your imagination!" or "let's concentrate our power of the friendship" (and call name of special → finisher), in the comic of "One piece" or "pre-cure"

Especially, the last is an extreme harmful contents from the view of "loneliness supremacist", even if they are supreme works.

(To be continued)

I hear that an certain company try to open an executive meeting including the executives, department manager, section chief, to all employees.

I think that the trial in itself is not bad.

I also think that it's a cheap good strategy to share the company's decision-making mechanism in real time, from the viewpoint of information sharing and willingness to unite.

However, the company seems to have executive who laments that no opinion comes from the bottom.

Every time I hear such a story, I think

"Did this person joined the company as an executive from the beginning?"

-----

In the first place, we can not take the risk of giving such opinion by ourselves.

It is a serious disadvantage to make evil speech and make evil stand out.

Initially, it is worst itself as a strategy to disclose your inner heart in an organization.

We can survive our organization only by hiding my inner heart and acting.

(To be continued)

(Continuation from yesterday)

And,

Whenever my birthday comes, what I think that

- we endure, persevere, strive, and we get something (such as identity, money, knowledge, etc.)

- I double whether our life is really valuable, against being doomed to die, while destroying abomination

―― と。

I think that "they are not valuable"

If "they are not valuable" is true, I think

- we should not make efforts beyond our performances,

and,

- we should not have excessive patience or perseverance that will destroy our mind.

-----

However, if there is only one hope,

I think that there will be a big difference between "what we observe us from the outside" and "what we observe us from the inside".

When I was a teenager, I could not imagine "what I am who lived for half a century now."

And then, at that time, I believed that "I, who lived for half a century" has declined severely and has miserable time without no reasons.

(To be continued)

I heard that there is an elder student of my second daughter, who is exhorting to watch "Steins Gate Zero"

Hearing the story, I was very impressed

"one of the best fellows with admirable spirit going"

feeling to make me "Itou Hirobumi" who let the beard grew and had a stick in the hand.

I first noticed after I stopped drinking,

"Japan is the world's leading alcoholic power"

We can get chuuhai(shochu mixed with soda water) with high alcohol content, lower price than juice and milk.

It is also quite cheap and delicious, and new products are still being developed.

Beer, sake and whiskey (nearby a convenience store) are available for purchase within 10 minutes.

I used to travel abroad often, but I have never seen such a free drink (× drink free) country.

----

For those who like drinking, Japan is "heaven", however for those who have stopped drinking, our country is "hell".

There is no doubt that I'm saying who have stop drinking.

The fact that "a big corner of a convenience store is occupied with all kinds of alcoholic beverages" is a pretty "torture" for me.

However,I have no intention to claim

"Convenience stores should install alcoholic beverages at the back of the counter, just like tobacco."

or

"Like selling erotic books, prohibit the sale of alcoholic beverages"

I think that that's too impressive.

-----

The "prohibition law" in the United States, said to be a bad law of the century, as a result, made the mafia, which manufactures and sells dark sake, huge (Al Capone, etc.), and the social order was disrupted.

This is a good example that handling these luxury items like "0" or "1" makes things worse.

However, I think that this alcohol sales environment in Japan is quite effective in mass-producing alcoholic people.

Recently, the issue of market monopoly by GAFA has been widely discussed on the street -- especially, in the US and Europe in particular.

GAFA refers to the four platformers of Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon.

Well, I think it's true that GAFA actually dominates the market and uses the privileged position of platformer to act as an advantage over retail stores.

Ironically, it was "R", not GAFA, that I learned of the specific example of the "privileged status of platforer".

In January of this year, the retailer's union protested that it would be an 'abuse of a superior position', in response to Rakuten's policy of "free shipping on purchases over a certain amount,

In response to this, the Fair Trade Commission filed a "Petition for Emergency Stay Order against Rakuten" with the Tokyo District Court.

-----

I have a sense of deja vu -- I think of the mayhem of 1995, when Windows 95 was released.

Subsequently, Microsoft was being sued all over the U.S. and Europe for "monopoly due to the privileged status of the Windows OS".

The "browser (Internet Explorer) bundling problem" was a big one.

In fact, browsers are the tool that rules the world.

Perhaps many people don't realize it, but browsers are now leading the way in "digital technology" rather than the "digital society".

It's "the foundation of scalable real-time digital services" that allow, for example, to display a million objects on a map simultaneously, as well as real-time games.

I'll never forget the impact I had when I tried to program in WASM (Web Assembler) on Mr. S's recommendation.

By the way, this program doesn't work, ironically, only on "Internet Explore".

Most other browsers (Chromo, Firefox, Edge, Safari, etc.) will show it.

However, many companies have adopted Internet Explorer as the basic browser for their business systems, so it is not possible to change this now.

This is a form of so-called "monopoly by OS" (a success story?) .

Aside from that.

-----

By all accounts, it should be clear that GAFA has a monopoly on the market.

In addition,

"The Government of Japan, which should be Japan's largest service platformer, is losing to Amazon"

It is true.

Of course, even if I know that "such a comparison is unreasonable".

(To be continued)

Today, my wife and I went to our daughter's school festival and saw the outdoor stage where she appeared.

I was given a ticket for the venue, but it was very far away, so I stood near the stage. However, a student wearing a windbreaker from the organizing committee warned me.

I think that for them, 'warning someone personally' was a rather daunting task.

It doesn't mean that there aren't idiots who get upset by being warned.

It was a risky job in its own right.

As far as I could watch, they hadn't allowed a single standing dense condition.

"It is very admirable, I thought."

Oh, by the way, the representative of the demonstration who claimed that "Corona doesn't exist" said, "Do your research and study it...

I have already written seven corona-related columns, which were based on the advice of active doctors, research papers and estimates.

Using the genome (Wuhan version) sequence of the corona spike protein, we also attempted to simulate RNA strand breaks in the virus.

From here on, I would like them to tell me exactly what I need to "look into" and "study".

But that's beside the point.

-----

So, what I did today was to separate from my wife and walk around the venue by myself for a long time -- I was a bit tired.

By continuing to walk, you can avoid the stagnation of infected air and prevent the development of dense conditions.

I couldn't concentrate on the content of the stage, but I thought it was enough, given the circumstances.

Depending on the host's best efforts to prevent infection, there are many ways for the participants to cooperate.

I watched the NHK documentary "Error: The Law of Failure - Man-made Disaster Hurricane Katrina".

This is one example of how sectionalism in an organization can kill victims in the field.

What struck me while watching this program was a comment made by Muneharu Nakagai-san, the former mayor of Toyooka City.

'For what it's worth, the counterbalance to sectionalism is regular drinking party'

-----

As you know, I am one of those who detest the "problem solving by drinking approach".

However, if I am said

"What is at stake is 'human life'"

I don't think this is the time to be so critical of the pros and cons of the approach.

-----

Is there any killer approach other than the "problem-solving by drinking party approach?" I'm thinking.

I, lately, have been using YouTube viewing for most of my math and statistics studies.

For traffic engineering, I'm listening to a lecture at an Indian university (a bit painful, but I can manage with the material).

The expense of purchasing specialized books can be considerably reduced, and they are much easier to understand than technical books.

For example,

- Nobiyori Takumi (YouTuber) helped me calculate the Dijkstra calculation method.

- Aicia Solid helped me with the programming of the factor analysis.

-----

Nobiyori Takumi (YouTuber) said some fun things here.(To YouTube)

People who gather in Shibuya to cheer for soccer -- don't know about offsides (laughter from the audience).

(The ticker states, "*Includes yellow card level prejudice.")

Please replay and listen to the story before and after this one.

What is an important point is

"Understanding is not everything in academia. It is also important to "want to support" the person absorbed in the subject."

-----

- I want to support my "second daughter," who dances yosakoi all over Japan in a university club while earning money for travel expenses through a part-time job.

- That approach sounds dangerous, but I want to support young researchers bold enough to take on this challenge.

(Anyone who says to a young researcher, 'That kind of research is meaningless,' I have killed him a hundred times in my head.)

And,

I want to support "me," who is desperately working hard on the columns and coding I want to do, even if I am taking precious time out of my life for research that will not bring a single millimeter of benefit to the world.

In other words, I like people who are "crazy" about something and want to support them (including myself).
