2014-10-16 Younger:"Ebata-san. Why do you try to publish your serialization?"

I have a lot of younger co-workers who are rude and KY. This following is an extreme attitude.

Younger:"Ebata-san. Why do you try to publish your serialization?"

Ebata:"No offer from any publishing company! Any objection!?"

Editors in charge give a welcome to publish them, and I want to give the books right in my parent's hands.

"However, what can I do without any offers?”

-----

How about is "power maid" animation?

I am going to permit to use the concept if you put my name in the end roll.


2015-10-16 And this "individuality" is not absolutely going to be protected by anyone.

(Continuation from yesterday)

I was a student who wanted to deep sleep and concentrate the sightseeing in the trip.

I was not interested in the talk about "who likes who" at all.

I really wanted a special room for quiet sleep to take a enough rest during the trip.

-----

When I talk about this story, my wife looks at me as if I were an alien.

I can admit that I was one of the eccentric students in my school days.

But this is "individuality" by nature.

And this "individuality" is not absolutely going to be protected by anyone.

-----

"Individuality" is basically uncontrollable. If it is controllable, it does not deserve the name of "individuality".

"Individuality" is something like scrap of a dust-cloth in abuse and discrimination.

Most of them are not judged "to be good" for the world.

-----

After all, school juridical persons who say "growing up children's individuality at elementary, junior high and high schools" are .. well. it is O.K.

But if they believe it with serious mind, I think that they are essentially dummy beyond redemption.

(To be continued)


2016-10-16 But recently, an odd phenomenon are annoying me,

I am very sorry but I cannot work a video monitoring system of my wife's country house , as I expect.

So now I am, as a weekend researcher, developing a packaging of the video monitoring system with "Raspberry Pi". using my house security system,

In fact, the works themselves are not so hard. They are for example, just making shell scripts. However, I have a lot of troubles with remembering UNIX command, even I had used overwhelmingly.

-----

But recently, an odd phenomenon is annoying me,

The monitor camera out of door, records the view of my wife's and daughter's commute perfectly (movable object detection).

"No video of my figure at the time of my returning home."

The half of month has passed from this test system, however, the camera ignores me even I do swollen gesture in front of the camera.

I think a variety of hypotheses, and one of them is "a camera unexpectedly detects movable object with human spirit".

The camera does not recognize me as a human being, because I go home with dizzying at work.


2017-10-16 "A business worker bursting laugh at rakugo in a late night road"

The other day, I left my earphone, so I tried walking while listening to Youtube on a smartphone without a earphone.

On the way to my home at midnight, I was walking while listening to the Rakugo of Mr. Yanagiya Kyotaro, with setting the volume to the maximum.

-----

Trying it out again, "without earphone" is a pretty good thing.

First, it is not troublesome

Wearing something on your ear is pretty annoying.

It is safe.

It is safe and secure I can hear the sound of coming a car.

And it is secure.

"A business worker bursting laugh at rakugo in a late night road"

Who want to approach me?

Well, though, I cannot think where a curious person is, who tries to attack a middle-aged man in the late night.

-----

However, I think that this is quite effective for security reasons.

On the late afternoon home, I recommend my daughters to take this way.

I think "Rakugo" is also good, and "English news" is also good.

"Heart Sutra", "heavy metal", "nursery song". Surprisingly I think that 'Enka' is also good.

I think that "idol songs" and "animation songs" are not very effective, so I will tell them to stop them.


2018-10-16 "it is me, that I am standing and fighting against outrageousness in the world".

The reasons why I cannot enjoy television drama, are, for example, that I come to think easily,

- I will be just an official of bad magistrate's office who was killed by a white hat in samurai dramas.

- I will be a middle manager who deal roughly with a newcomer and do power harassment in office dramas

- I will be a stalker who sticks up to a heroin in love dramas

- I will be a lawyer who say a word for schmuck by using a dirty trick in court dramas.

-----

I am wondering why many people can come to think a convenient interpretation,

"it is me, standing and fighting against outrageousness in the world".

However, the reality proved different.

(To be continued)


2019-10-16 So I don't like to give a sermon to others, and don't like a person who give a sermon to me more.

I described a lot of know-how in my columns, for example, "Engineers who are not loved by English"

However, I know well that "all of the know-how is useless expect for me"

For example,

I cannot deliver my policy of "My effort cannot win genius anyway", to a person who has a belief of "My effort wins genius finally"

Nobody who thinks "TOEIC score is importance for English communication" cannot understand eternally my methods of "using English words at random without grammar and rules"

In short, "know-how" is based on personality at all points.

Therefore, "know-how" is just "wet refuse" for others in many cases.

------

So I don't like to give a sermon to others, and don't like a person who give a sermon to me more.

I think that this is a same thing I push others "wet refuse" or I am pushed "wet refuse" by others

In addition, "drinking party" will make a lot of events of giving a sermon to others.

-----

However, I didn't notice that up to a comparatively recent date.

I am afraid that I was also one of the "wet refuses" giving a sermon to others.

However, you may set your mind at ease.

I will never give a sermon to others in drinking party.

I offer my apology over my past acts of vandalism.

On the other hand, I will continue to give a sermon to you in my columns and diary. But a smell of "wet refuses" is fading if you get away from the "wet refuse".

At least for the present, please compromise it with the above way.

Set it aside.

(To be continued)


2020-10-16 "If you want to move people, Quantify the 'risk' and Raise 'anxiety' to 'fear'"

My draft in progress came back from the institution I had asked to review it.

Here are some excerpts.

===== From here ======

The terms "risk" and "anxiety" in the text are used with the following meanings.

"Risk" is the possibility of disadvantages to the behavior change target (individuals, companies), and changes by accepting the behavior change request by the behavior change guidance system.

For example, an individual may suffer from a viral infectious disease and be forced to take sick leave and lose his or her income, or may die.

In addition, in a company, the occurrence of an infected person in an employee may interrupt business activities and cause financial loss.

On the other hand, "anxiety" means that a person who is subject to behavior change accepts a request for behavior change by the behavior change guidance system, and acts differently from others, and only he / she suffers disadvantages (dismissal, deficit performance, etc.) feelings of anxiety or fear that you may feel.

In this text, the risk of infection with a viral or other infectious disease will be explained as an example, however,risks and anxieties do not only occur for infectious diseases.

For example, in a disaster such as an earthquake or a huge typhoon, there is a risk that the subject may evacuate or wait at home, and regardless of which one is selected, the decision to act differently from others is accompanied by anxiety.

These risks and anxieties are factors that hinder the acceptance of behavior change requests.

Hereinafter, the behavior change guidance system will be described in more detail.

===== To here ======

To summarize the above excerpts, that is,

"If you want to move people, Quantify the 'risk' and Raise 'anxiety' to 'fear'"

I also thought, "The idea of 'agitating anxiety and moving the world' is the same as the dictator of the east and west in the first place."

Well, these days, anyone can use SNS to do it normally, even if it's not a dictator.

But I wonder if I have never seen "quantification".

-----

About this "behavior change guidance system" that I am proposing, even if I rewrite the following, the meaning seems to be understood.

"Dictator decision support system"

"Brand name system that uses the Internet flame"

-----

Well, I think it will definitely be rejected at the examination stage.


2021-10-16 This is not "wrong". It's just the way it is.

I think I know a lot about communism, more than the average Japanese person.

In terms of standard deviation, I think I'm at about 2σ (deviation 70), not quite 3σ (deviation 80).

I was the son of a factory manager of a town factory.

From the communists' point of view, they must be "enemies of the people who must be overthrown," I thought. So I listened to the students in the dormitory (autonomous dormitory) talking about the so-called "revolution" with a sense of "Damn.

Or rather, I thought, "Everyone in the dormitory is an enemy of the people," when they had the financial ability to enter university. In the first place, they were looking for a job to make us cogs in the capitalist society -- not activists.

-----

Marxism, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Trotsky, Pol Pot, the Great Purge, the Cultural Revolution, the Japanese Red Army, the All-Communist Party, the Core Faction, the Leather Marxists, the Civil War, the Yodo hijacking, the Tel Aviv airport shooting, Asama Sanso...

I know that it is too violent to mix these things up. Anyway, I don't have to say "What is that? Is it good?" because I have enough input in my brain about them.

Of course, I know how the JCP abandoned the violent revolutionary line, criticized the communist parties of China and the former Soviet Union, and even branded the students as "leftist violent groups".

However, I don't know what will happen after that, if they can seize power.

The Communist Party, by its very nature, is not supposed to follow any other path than a one-party dictatorship. (As far as I have learned) democratic elections are a negation of communism.

This is not "wrong". It's just the way it is.

If I were to use an analogy, it would be like criticizing me (Ebata) by saying, "It's shameful that Ebata is Ebata.

Or, it is the same as the tautology that says, 'It is because it is against the teachings of Islam,' in response to the question, 'Why is it wrong to go against Islam?

That's why I prefer to think in terms of logic and numbers rather than ideology.

Because it's "easy" absolutely.

-----

I think the name "Communist Party" has a great impact, or rather, a preconceived notion of it.

I think they should use English abbreviations like Japan Tobacco → JT, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation → NTT, Japan National Railways (JNR) → JR to dispel the negative image of the word "Communist Party".

How about "Japanese Communist Party → JC" ?

The event of electoral cooperation with the Constitutional Democratic Party made me say "Umm". So I think this is a good opportunity to change the name of the party.

In any case, if they use Constitutional Democratic Party → CDP and say "CDP + JC Coalition", we won't know what's what anymore.

I think this will finally make the opposing structure to the LDP look like what it is.

I think it's fine just during the campaign.

I know that the name of the party is an "important brand" to the party members, just like the "store name" of a liquor store or a candy store.


2022-10-16 'When I buy books, I'm usually mentally driven, pale, and don't look happy at all.'

I often have to purchase books (mostly technical books), out of necessity, out of my own pocket.

"Especially when I am out of column material, I can't pretend anymore"

It is like that.

-----

Ebata: "So, I don't see much difference between those who pay for online games and those who buy technical books.

Wife: "Really?"

Ebata: "I think we share the same point of 'doing what I love' and also 'doing what others cannot value' in the eyes of others."

Wife: "I would get 'mad' if you spend money for a online game, but with books, I think that I don't"

Ebata: "I agree, however I just can't logically explain the difference between the two."

Wife: "Reward for investment?"

Ebata: "(The argument is) weak. Even in online games, there is a reward of 'it makes me enjoy'."

Wife: "Because couples can't share 'the enjoy'?"

Ebata: "Sure, we can share books - but it is still "weak".

-----

So, this is a bit of a hypothetical.

'When I buy books, I'm usually mentally driven, pale, and don't look happy at all.'

I think that this may be one of the reasons.


2023-10-16 Reading an English book and presenting an English presentation for an hour -- I think that kind of thing is the domain of "engineers who are loved by the English language.

The content of the university lectures is hard.

Reading an English book and presenting an English presentation for an hour -- I think that kind of thing is the domain of "engineers who are loved by the English language.

But if I don't get the required credits, I won't be able to graduate.

However, what do I think about graduating? What about the job opportunities? Even though I'm about to retire?

"Oh, I'm losing this one if I think about it."

So I stop it.

-----

Me: "You know, have you ever heard of The Tragedy of the Commons?"

Wife: "I don't know. I know about the Doha Tragedy, though."

Well, I thought, I guess so.

Incidentally, it was only recently that I learned the phrase "Doha Tragedy."
