2014-02-03 Thought I don't know whether it is effective, I have been able to avoid the infections.

The other day, there was a topic of "flu" in "Practical Business English" of NHK radio program.

As I expected, "hard-washing" seems to be the most effective way to prevent infect from flu.

In my case, I always carry an alcohol spray can, and put spray on tips of my fingers.

Thought I don't know whether it is effective, I have been able to avoid the infections.

-----

In the radio program, one of the methods how to wash hands was introduced,

"Washing hand with singing "Happy Birthday" by the end of the song.”

So I tried it soon.

At the day that I came back home late at night, I was singing a song alone at the washing stand.

At that time, I could hear a small and fearful voice from behind.

"Hey, my darling? Are you O.K.?"


2015-02-03 "I want to talk about a writer that way. It's cool isn't it?"

This is a continuation of books written by great writers few days ago.

I like books of the late Inoue Yasushi-sensei, who might not be a great writer. I thought I had finished reading all his books.

Daughter:"...."

Ebata:""Shirobanba", "Natsukusa Fuyunami" and "Kita no Umi" are his big three autobiographical novels, and I read again and again from junior high school period during lunch alone."

Daughter:"...."

Ebata:"When I was a high school student, I really thought that I went to the house to get his autograph. But in his essay, he wrote that he was supposed to reject the visiting, besides the study purpose.

Daughter:"...."

Ebata:"So I was very pity and sorry, when he passed away"

Daughter:"...."

Ebata:"Well... What is wrong with you?"

Daughter:"I want to talk about a writer that way. It's cool isn't it?"

-----

She has a point there.


2016-02-03 Men look like being ill at ease in atypical or extraordinary scene.

There is a private junior high school nearby, and the entrance examinations is going.

When I go to the station on the way to office, I will meet the parents who escorted their children.

Most of the men who look like their father, are walking to the station.

I assume that they don't wait for their children at a waiting room, and go to the office directly,

Most men wear coats over business suit, and have black briefcases.

Let me say.. their figures seemed not to fit the scene, From the view of mine, they took uncertain steps or on the bob.

-----

I know well that the following is based on my subjectivity or personal bias, however

Men look like being ill at ease in atypical or extraordinary scene.

In other words, "something strange"

In this case, "a father who takes their child to Exam venue" is to be non-everyday atypical.

(To be continued)


2017-02-03 Specifically, I think that "promise with people" or "money" are good for you.

(Continuation from yesterday)

Though I think it 's pretty difficult to "live two or more lives simultaneously", I would like to recommend it.

It is not such a big deal. I feel like "doing my hobby".

However, I am afraid that you can stop "hobbies" at any time, so you should set some trap not to stop it.

Specifically, I think that "promise with people" or "money" might be good.

For example,

- Working collaboratively with the group, further might be good if there is a deadline.

I am not very familiar with it, however I think that "doujinshi circle" will meet this condition.

Conversely,

- Volunteer with no money

is not recommended I think.

If it is a literal meaning of volunteer (spontaneous), you can escape from it at any time since obligation does not occur.

- Studying for study

is absolutely useless. Especially, the type of study method "someday useful" is the worst.

Basically, compulsory education employs the worst study method, however, they can maintain that system with motivation "useful" for tests and entrance exams,

Well, even with "the second life", I think that it probably is useless. if guaranteed freedom and withdrawal.

(To be continued)


2018-02-03 "A super-cool secretary stands by me"

(To be continued)

I have used the tool that can operate from one hundred million ten hundred million lines (Of course, it was tremendous tools , I think). On the other hand, it is like

"A super-cool secretary stands by me"

I am afraid that I have not known this useful tool before.

-----

In fact the result of today's topic is not the above.

I am a man who

can neither criticize nor evaluate what I don't know, but

come to make a noise "It is great! it is great!" once I like that.

In conclusion, I am really an ungentle

You can call me a "contemptible person"


2019-02-03 This is a "causative form".

I tried searching my page with "Anime".

"Heavy Object" "PSYCHO-PASS" "Sword Art Online" "Servant x Service" "Golden Time" " The Saga of Tanya the Evil" "Steins;Gate" "Magical Girl Madoka Magika" "Bakemonogatari Series" "BEATLESS" "Katana Story" "Frozen desserts" "Laid-Back Camp" "Natsume Yujincho book" "Jorumungang" "ACCA 13 district inspection section" "Your Lie in April" "Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun" "Barakamon" "Violet Evergarden" "My Romantic Comedy Is Wrong,As I Expected" (probably still there)

"Everything was interesting without complaint"

Of course, I have to exclude "Steins;Gate" because of the interesting of it. Speaking at the concept level, I think that "My Romantic Comedy Is Wrong,As I Expected" was amazing.

Dare to say, "Single is the strongest strategy".

Let me think that I spend nearly half a century to reach this truth, I can say that it is a masterpiece to say that it is a gospel to young people who suffers from "Friend" illusion ".

Aside from that.

-----

I do not think any appeal will come out from anywhere that what is definitely the champion of this season now.

"Kaguya-sama: Love is War"

I thought "I wonder how many years ago animation that made me a big burst from the first episode"

This is also an amazing work for the concept.

"Romance is a battle", "Whoever confessed earlier loses". It is a love comedy animation which make me remember old sense of value (just fantasy). To be honest "It is regrettable".

"I wanted this concept first," (seriously).

Speaking of the concept I've come up with, "Engineers not loved by English" or "Control network with master and maid". They are not bittersweet at all(That makes sense).

-----

I am also impressed with this title.

I know that "Miss Kagiya wanna make him confess" is absolutely not.

Not "She wants to be confessed", but "She makes him confess"

This is a "causative form".

Love comedy works, based on "causative form" is not rare, but this title has novelty.

-----

I came to be interested in English translation of this title and I looked around in variously.

"Miss Kagiya wanna make him confess" might be too direct, so I think that it is impossible .

However,

About "Kaguya-sama: Love is War","Kaguya Love War", I wanted to say "How boring the English translations are!"

"Why do they try to include "causative form"?"

However, I am also thinking. "it would be useless to translate literall".

-----

I am watching English subtitles on YouTube, while admiring that "Oh, that way is!".

My study of English is almost like this.


2020-02-03 "Disappear from this project as soon as possible"

There are leaders who "take drinks" when the project is in crisis.

Leaders of this sort are not only incompetent, incompetent, but also garbage, bikin, and cockroaches of the project, and are arguably the biggest obstructors of the project.

First of all, the project that cannot not work, can not work by a drinking party.

If doing such a "drinking party", the project would be further delayed and fall into a bad state.

This incompetent project leader is "escaping" from fundermental problems of the project, because they don't really understand the project itself.

Indeed, it can be said that there is no medicine for this kind of fool.

-----

What the project leader should do are

After thorough hearing with the members,

- Negotiation with customers to extend delivery time or reduce system functionality,

- Introduction of human resources that can provide technical support,

- Project withdrawal to minimize damage

It's hard, and harsh, so is likely to be killed, however, this is the works of the project leader.

------

The person who hinders the progress of the project, at least in the "drinking party", is not the leader.

"Disappear from this project as soon as possible"

This is no problem,


2021-02-03 People with Andoroid phones should be outraged, and the government should apologize for scraping its head on the floor. That's fine, and that should be.

"The Android version of COCOA, an app for confirming contact with patients with new coronas, has been effectively disabled since last September, and the government has apologized"

People with Android phones should be outraged, and the government should apologize for scraping its head on the floor. That's fine, and that should be.

It is outrageous that the system has not been functioning since the end of September 2020.

I also think that people who have Android phones can file a lawsuit under the State Compensation Act against the government on the grounds that they have been put at risk

(I think this is equivalent to "gross negligence" under Article 1, Section 2, but I know it is difficult to determine the damages.)

-----

That's why, as an engineer, I'm the only one who's willing to say it.

"Android phones do that a lot, don't they?"

-----

I have always thought that it would be a good idea to distribute dummy software that simulates an infected terminal.

I think that the distribution of the simulated software can be limited to only IT experts (i.e. me) who can handle at least public key cryptosystems.

I think it would be preferable for COCOA to display one or two messages a day that say, "Your phone has confirmed a reaction to the test terminal, but it is not contact with an infected person.


2022-02-03 I can eat while watching videos of Auschwitz -- well, most people can't.

These days, it's not often that the whole family eats together.

My wife and I, who work from home, mainly have dinner together.

In our house, I record NHK documentaries and my wife records variety shows from commercial broadcasters.

My recording times are generally late night reruns, so we've been able to avoid double-booking my recording times.

The problem is that 'we can't share and view the contents each other.

-----

If you look at the list of my recorded programs, the titles usually include

"Nazi", "Taliban", "Chernobyl", and "nuclear power plant".

When I look at my wife's program list,

I see "Matsumoto", "Matsuko", serial TV novels, night dramas in general

in the list.

Of course, I also like variety shows, so there is some content that we can share and watch, but that number is not very large.

-----

I can eat while watching videos of Auschwitz -- well, most people can't.

(Maybe I've seen all the official Auschwitz concentration camp videos.)

However, I can't eat while watching dramas, including "The world is full of demons" -- it feels like my digestive system is shutting down.

-----

So now, the only content that the Ebata family can share is "Gaia no Yoake" and "Hatsu-mimi gaku".


2023-02-03 "I will not say anything that contradicts the claims of my master (e.g. the prime minister), no matter what I think"

A secretary (55) from the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) said on the evening of March 3, "I don't even want to look at sexual minorities (LGBT, etc.) and same-sex marriagem", and "I would also hate it if I lived next door".

"Not again"

I thought that.

-----

There are two issues.

(1) It is difficult for us old geezers and old ladies to understand sexual minorities (e.g. LGBT) and same-sex marriage, as we have not been used to such things.

So if you can't understand it by feel, then you have to gain knowledge and understanding from news, documentaries, and content (ranging from comics to papers).

Over a long period of time, by continuing to study, even gradually, you can change the sensibilities (including "prejudices") that you have.

I (Ebata) think I did it (only in this case).

Conversely, those who don't do it and continue to cling to their own sensibilities -- they are not studying.

-----

I do not believe that anyone should have to learn the hard way.

However,

"Secretary to the Prime Minister of Japan"

is one of those who must continue to study tirelessly.

Hence, his continued "ignorance" is "harmful".

-----

(2) He spoke his mind on the premise of "off the record," but to be honest, I thought he was a bit naive.

Even I, a just businessman, do not believe in "off the record".

For example, we do not write the truth in questionnaires conducted by the company.

As an example, at JMI (periodic mental health checkup), I answer 'yes' to the question 'I can hear voices from the universe' every time.

Criticism of company policy is out of the question -- well, I'm glad to say that many of the company's policies are relatively acceptable to me.

----

He was exposed to his own feelings of "I don't even like to look at them and I would still hate it if I lived next door", through my lack of study. To tell you the truth, I had to think,

"He was a little boy"

-----

"I will not say anything that contradicts the claims of my master (e.g. the prime minister), no matter what I think"

This is the golden rule for businessmen.


2024-02-03 What is "Ussei-wa" from seniors to juniors? -- It is a reckless proposal that has not been cost-estimated.

I believe that Ado's hit song "Ussei-wa" is about the frustration of "unspoken subordinates" against their bosses, i.e., a song of avoidance and criticism from junior to senior.

But there is a reverse pattern.

It is a "Ussei-wa" from seniors to juniors.

-----

Seniors have been alive longer, so they have more experience no matter what, regardless of their qualities.

I faced more troubles than Junior and had to solve them before proceeding with my work.

Of course, this high level of experience has nothing to do with their effort or talent but the length of time.

So, while it is natural for seniors to "take advantage" of their experience, it is unreasonable for them to "brag" about this to juniors.

Seniors who do such things are simply "idiots," but there are many such idiots.

-----

Hence, from the junior's point of view, it may seem as if the senior 'exists only to get in the way of his work.

While a certain number of seniors are idiots, as described above, the majority are not.

They have good intentions by saying, "You don't have to get stuck in the same landmines I got stuck in.

However, even if the intentions were good, it is natural for Junior to feel "Ussei-wa."

-----

As a junior, I was tempted to say, 'Don't I have the right to fail?"

Therefore, I do not want to interfere with anyone's "right to fail," so I can stand smiling in front of a junior who may fail.

I got a little off-topic. Let me get back on track.

-----

What is "Ussei-wa" from seniors to juniors? -- It is a reckless proposal that has not been cost-estimated.

When you are as senior as I am, you can quickly visualize the cost, time frame, and number of resources that would be required just by listening to the proposal.

In addition, the likelihood of its failure can be intuitively predicted (although it is tedious to quantify and logically convert it).

And, well, new attempts usually fail -- but that can't be helped. It's a "new attempt.

-----

This 'intuitive prediction' of the senior seems to the junior to be 'present only to interfere with the junior's work.

However, in this case, the senior does not (or cannot) explain logically to the junior. It is even worse if they are "cutting corners" with that explanation.

But "logical explanations are troublesome".

Hence, the senior may choose to "leave the junior alone."

In this way, both seniors and juniors do not fight. Both smile and laugh, and both are unhappy

Well, I believe that is one of the "solutions."

-----

Incidentally, I have seen many brilliant young talents boldly take up the challenge and then fall in a heap -- with my smiling.

These "brilliant young talents" were often cocky, irreverent, and obnoxious, so I was able to "smile" from the bottom of my heart without any difficulty.

-----

Thus, one of my life mottos is

"I don't get in the way of brilliant young talent, but I don't help it either. But neither do I help them.
