I've completed registration for all of my family's Miner Points(My Number card-based cashless payment services) (\5,000 per person) (only my senior daughter seems to be working hard to make it through on her own).

I'll take whatever "my country gives me".

I have a card reader on my home PC, characteristically masterful

However, it was rather troublesome that the points for the family could not be thrown together into one credit card. Well, I think it's "natural" from the point of view of security and fraud measures.

Therefore, for families other than me, I threw them on a commuter pass (PASMO).

However, PASMO needed preliminary registration in advance and I didn't notice it, so it was pretty wasteful.

Nevertheless, "the administration is working hard to make this system easy to use,

But, unfortunately, I'm a systems engineer, so I understand that, I think.

My senior daughter had something interesting to say.

"In short, the government is training the people to improve their IT literacy."

Certainly, if all the people can use My Number Card freely, the current administrative window work can be less than half (intuitively).

This is a bright future, where we can expect a dynamic change in the social security budget.

Even so, if "the government is training to improve the IT literacy of the people," I would like to say, "First of all, what should I do with IT education?"

There still seem to be a lot of stupid schools that ban smartphones from bringing them to school (yes, they're surprisingly close to me).

"It's the opposite isn't it?"

I think that it is really dangerous if we do not immediately start the educational curriculum that uses smartphones as "teaching materials" during classes.

From my point of view, it is clear that the administration (MEXT, etc.) is turning in that direction.

However, useless old without IT literacy(on-site teachers and PTAs) are hindering it.

-----

As I said, it is certain that I will eventually join the useless old

In the near future, I will be treated as a nuisance by society, which will be incredibly inconvenient and extremely unpleasant.

Still, at least I'm prepared to "put up with them" so as not to "get in the way of the next generation".
