We use a motion sensor light in our restroom to prevent forgetting to turn of the light.

However, the light has not worked well theses day..

After thinking it a little, I noticed the reason.

The motion sensor light detect a changes in infrared radiation with moving human body, and turn on the light.

Then the tempterture of the restroom is higher than those of human-body, the sensor cannot detect any infrared radiation.

Therefore wherever and whenever the temperature is higher than 36 degrees Celsius, the effect of security lighting with infrared radiation sensors is missing perfectly.

-----

Tropical nights with temperatures exceeding 36 degrees Celsius at night -- just thinking about it is a nightmare.

However we must remember that nobody could predict a series of extremely hot days (more than 40 degrees Celsius) a few years ago.

"Why is the bus running on the bridge of railway!?" This phenomenon is annoying me this weekend.

Last night, I woke up for the debugging in my dream four times, and I was exhausted.

Just now, I noticed that I didn't modify the cost parameter of the Dijkstra function.

Finally I confirmed that I could prevent the bus from running out of control.

Well, today, I am going to complete to implement "transferring at the station".

-----

Recently, I come to know that my insomnia is strongly related to heavy coding(debugging).

On the other hand, it seems to have nothing to do with writing columns.

What appears in my dream during my insomnia are "programming code" and "lists of database" in many cases.

-----

In short,

"the opinions that a person says about Artificial Intelligence without insomnia by coding"

is absolutely not believed.

I think I might choose a ruling party for the election for the House of Councilors, however, at this election, "the constitutional change" might be a big issue.

I am aware that I am a funny voter who hope both (1) the nation voting for Constitution to be realized and (2) the amendment to be rejected at the same time.

I believe that the Constitution should be changed more freely, and that it would be good to have an environment where pro and con sides can engage in heated debate.

-----

Today, I received the election PR.

In the previous election, I felt pain that I went to the city hall to get it, and the next day, it were delivered at the next day. So this time, I just waited it.

In the PR, there is no candidate who uses numbers or charts, so they could not get Ebata's seed slot.

(1) The person who use characters only, is no presentation ability.

(2) The party which changed their policy from scrambling broadcasts to exempting the elderly from paying.

(3) No person who argues the reasons for patrilineal emperors on medical grounds (In my opinion, I don't care of it at all).

(4) The person who said "What is a problem, even if the super-computer performance is the second in the world?" I never forgive her.

(5) The persons who argue about quantum computers and mRAN is less understandable that me.

(6)Since the minimum wage apply for the albite, small retailers and restaurant will be bankrupt easily if the wage is risen at 1500 yen.

If they hope the wide restriction of Japan to lead to bankrupt, I can consider it (However I think the small retailers should be continued)

(6) I think that "the consumption tax should be abort" is a good policy. On the other hand, I don't know the reason why they don't open their simulations result on desk or on computer to us.

I am afraid that it is too danger to start the social and field experiments without any simulation.

(If they have the results of the simulation, please let me know. I'll write a whole column on it).

(7) I think the arts are worth protecting, but they are too trivial for me compared to the concerns of old age (pensions and national defense).

(8) The person of the party which the idiot guru who sang about "preventing corona infection through faith" are out of the question.

(To be continued)

(Continuation from yesterday)

This time, what attract me is the party whose name is "Get the U.S. bases in Okinawa Pref. to Tokyo".

This is good policy, if we can ignore the geographic problem.

Adding "Get nuclear power plants in Japan to Tokyo", it will be almost full score.

-----

In this election, "the new coronavirus disaster" seems to be out of scope. (I tried use a search engine just to be sure)

I am not sure why no one who has a policy of "anti-vaccine" candidate.

Even if they think the disaster become peak out, they can say about "compensation to harmful side effects of vaccines". So I wonder that they have not done any activity.

I think that they decided that it was not a contentious issue because of the effectiveness of "with corona" methods.

I estimate that most of the candidate could not blame for the government about the "with corona" method.

According to the defense spending, some candidates show that in the headline.

However, I could not find the phrase "day nursery". Fewer "LGBT" and "same-sex marriage."

Anyway, the election PR is enjoyable in order to estimate the thoughts and strategies of each candidates.

-----

The other say, my daughter said to herself, while watching the news of Russia's invasion to Ukraine

"In the end, it's all about 'power'"

When I was the 20's, I had no thought of it.

At least I had the energy to stand up to the adult who talked it like that.

The youth in the present cannot allow to have a dream of "a peaceful world without restriction by the power". Coming to think of it, I think they are pitiful.

It seems that the second season of the anime "Welcome to the Meritocracy Classroom" has started.

-----

"Welcome to the Edenic Classroom" families led by a chief, seems to be in constant conflict with other classes.

"Welcome to the kinship classroom", all classes of relatives. Depressing.

"Welcome to the Cultism Classroom" fanatics who all have crazy eyes. Scary.

"Welcome to the personalism classroom", everyone is a person of integrity. It's suffocating.

Coming to think of it, we could agree that

"Welcome to the classroom of deviation supremacy", like prep schools are wholesomeness.

I think that "handshake" from the candidate on election campaign might be effective.

Previously I went to interview to a cartoonist

I remember that we could spend an intense time, which was stronger than "handshake".

I heard that He is running for the House of Councillors, and I hope him to win the election.

-----

To be honest, I am shamed to open my ignorance, however, this time I know the following.

(1) In proportional district voting, it is common to write the name of the political party, but you can "write the name of the individual".

(2) and 'writing in the individual's name' will push that person to the top of the proportional district list

Because, at the House of Councillors election, they use "non-binding list system", which means "the order of the proportional list is not decided in advance"

In short, writing "individual name" not "party name", increase the person's change of being elected.

Even in proportional district voting, we can vote the person directly.

Though It was very shameful for me, I have not known the method just now.

------

I know the cartoonist has dealt with copyright problems seriously, and brought me amazing ideas to us for a long time.

Therefore, today I will go to vote on the day before the deadline and write,

(1) the name of the candidates who have not excluded by me for Electoral district elections

(2) the name of cartoonist for proportional district elections

I have already published my policy about election in Japan since the previous election, as follow.

This time too, I ask you the cooperation about my activities.

-----

According to my estimation, if we keep current state of Japan, our country's finance will be just barely maintained until my death.

If the youth come to think their future seriously, I, who am about to start pension life, am in great trouble.

I hope the youth and middle generations are not interested in politics, as much as possible.

-----

In comparison with the above, the elders should go to vote at all cost.

We have to save the candidate and the parties who are moderate, conservative and want to keep the current status, and crash new ambitious challenges.

Keep our vested interests and get away with pushing negative legacy on the next generation.

In addition, never forget that we, the elders, are the biggest vote field in Japan.

However, we should never relax our guard with saying "even if we leave us alone, we will win".

Making the younger and working generations as a footstool , we have to ensure that our safe and secure retirement is solid.

The vote day is July 10th, the next Sunday. Don't miss it.

-----

There are some Ebata's columns about election. If you are interested, go ahead.

When I was in a waiting room at a bank for changing my notification seal, I knew ""sniper attack on the former prime minister during his speech".(The case was later confirmed as a "murder").

I felt that I could not control myself because of my furious rage, and I decided not to touch any news, especially SNS until NHK news from seven o'clock.

After such a major tragedy, I was anxious that I am going to be incontrollable by false news and demagogues.

Above all, I was sure that I could not keep a normal state of mind right now (so I didn't know what I will write out).

-----

I live to feel I am so happy that I can write what I am thinking and feeling freely in my daily life.

I deeply thank many predecessors who have fought to win these rights, and

I deeply despise those who would throw away the act (exercising the right to vote) from my bottom of my heart.

-----

I don't think that election is just a system to elect candidates.

Elections are

- the biggest interview with all Japanese public

- the most important event to measure the persona of named "JAPAN"

- the physical examination of JAPAN

I think so.

The measure values might be changed dynamically by this terrorist attack, however, the result of measure is going to be treated as "our will".

-----

I (selfishly) believe that "voting in elections" is (also) "protesting terrorism against freedom of speech".

Show me our country's willingness to protest terrorism in the "numerical" form of "voter turnout"

Now I am thinking so.

(Though I have already voted before), tomorrow July 10 is the day to vote for the House of Councillors.

I would like you to remained you of the following incidents, before you go to vote.

- List of politicians who were having banquets during the government's restrict request in the corona disaster (only those picked up by Ebata).

- List of politicians from organizations that used/not used the online system for political fund balance reports

The following is not about politician, but there was also incident in which 23 employees of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare had dinner together at a restaurant in Ginza, Tokyo.

-----

The other day, the British Prime Minister was finally forced to resign during the party in the government restraint.

Both our country's foreign and domestic policy are important for us , but we also have to remained the anger at that time.

I strongly recommend to check the qualifications and behaviors of candidate you will vote beforehand.

We have to teach the candidates who will the election that "if you make us angry we become furious enemies against you".

"BS World Documentary "The Impossible Project: The Man Who Revived Instant Film"

I watched the program.

I enjoyed it, rather I feel happy.

-----

I am self-conscious that I have spent half my life on the cutting edge of digital tech.

(It is a bit of exaggeration, but in general, I don't think it's wrong)

Therefore, I know that we should not say that "digital is superiors to analog at any case"

That's aside.

-----

Recently many companies are trying t make "co-creation space" to "enhance creativity".

I could not find the reports that show the effectiveness of "creativity" from objective viewpoint using numbers, however, some people seem to like to work in these fashionable space.

On the other hand, speaking of me, I have never been able to think of a patent story among the "vividly colored walls," "oddly shaped (unstable) chairs," "many friends," and "the smell of coffee.

Rather, they are always "obstacles" for my patent work.

In my case, my creativities go to the peak when I am alone in the "dark", "cold", "small" room, facing a whiteboard.

I don't think that there are many people who have applied more than 100 patent applications( including "divided" or "priority by Paris treaty") to the patent office, like me.

Therefore, the effectiveness of the "Co-Creation Space" may vary greatly from person to person, or I may be an exceptionally "weird guy".

Well, if a company insist that "dark, cold, small, sepia-colored laboratory" is a "co-creation space", the company's image will be in ruin. So I think that I have to understand the background of the company.

-----

Recently, I have opened about a DIY whiteboard.

The most useful item in my research engineer's life, has been "whiteboard"

It is not PC, smartphone, printer, and scanner. Moreover, even my competent colleagues cannot exceed "whiteboard"

"Whiteboard" is a common tool to share knowledges in brain storming, however in my case, it is a tool to "fight me".

In short, some of analog are the strongest tools for me still now.

When I went down to the living room to get a drink, my wife and daughter watch the TV drama.

"I will make a place where all children can study equally by IT"

In the drama, an actress, who seemed to play a main character, was speaking such a line.

-----

When I am about to say my comment with scornful smile,

"Say nothing and go back to your room soon"

I felt the pressure like that form them, so I went back to my room with a cup.

Since the murder of the former prime minister, the "Unification Church", which now seems to have changed the name to "Family Federation for World Peace and Unification", has been in the news.

Checking the church by the Google map, I found the three churches --- I looked pale. After rechecking, I found that there was one church around my house.

However, I could not feel a relief.

-----

When I started my college life, I was thoroughly told by the university authorities, circle activities and teachers was,

"If you are approached by a strange solicitor, don't say a word, just run away"

You can find many information using a search engine, so I don't have to explain about it. In my case, my friend was about to victims against the cult religions.

When my two daughters started their college life, I was on the highest lever of alert.

I told them again and again "if you are solicited or are about to be taken to somewhere, call me immediately at any cost"

At that time, "Unification Church" is recognized as "brainwashing cult organization" that was more scared than Left-wing extremists

(Incidentally, I was the head of a self-governing dormitory, so the Unification Church might say "You don't say that", But I was a lazy head who had never tried the organizing, moreover I hated people in the dormitory.)

-----

Even if my daughters were taken in by a right/left-wing organization, I had a plan to go a hideout, argue and recapture them by force.

I had an estimation that I got to confirm my win (on the spot) as a crime case, if I received violence.

-----

However, frustratingly there is no winning strategy against cult groups basically.

This is because brainwashed people cannot be unbrainwashed by logic.

On the contrary, I am confident that even I would be easily brainwashed if I were kidnapped by the cult.

Above all, I know well that the robustness of my brain is extremely low.

This is clear that the fact that I could not make normal decisions during my diet.

"Once kidnapped, that's the end". This was my understanding of the Unification Church at the time.

Incidentally, the content is well depicted in the anime "Golden Time" episode 3, "Night Escape" (jump to YouTube, which is also available on Amazon Prime).

(To be continued)

(Continuation from yesterday)

About the "Unification Church" of yesterday's diary, they were called "Genri" or "Genri-Ken" in the college campus. (Now they seem to call them "CARP")

There seems to be several arguments about the relationship between them, however, I think that they are both "cult".

I have not felt the necessary to change my recognition at all (though I have forgotten them for a long time).

-----

Kyoto has been a sort of college town, so there were a lot of swarming "Genri" around the town.

They talked to me in an over-familiar manner, and the start of talking was always

"Are you happy now?"

On the other hand, I didn't think that "I am an normal student". So it was easy to handle these guys.

"Angry shouts" in the public streets, was a piece of cake for a student who was living in a self-governed dormitory.

They seemed to be surprised at a student who could counter-attack with angry shouts in public space.

-----

After those days, I felt to be annoyed by them. So I changed the strategy.

"Are you happy now?"

"Of course, Yes, I am dazzlingly happy every day. Are you not?"

with looking at them with a concerned expression. Mostly they stood there stunned.

As far as I remember, the win rate was 100%.

-----

Suddenly, I remember now--

I once started to eliminate a cult group that had entered my boarding house by putting up dozens of flyers "Outsiders, get out!

In addition, I was loud shouting match with a guy who came to my room for nearly one hour around 2:00 AM, to make the group members keep hearing the rage contents.

I did not relent in my attack until I had removed everyone from the boarding house.

Looking back, I think they were "Ome" not "Genri" (they were dressed like that).

-----

I think that the successes of this time, became a method of mine, like

"If something goes wrong, make it to 'flame-out' instead of 'extinguish'"

-----

As for college cult circles,

the Episode 5 of "Shijohan Shinwa Taikei" is also a good reference (jump to YouTube).

After national election, I always check the voting count of each candidate in my election area.

Now I am checking about Tokyo election area.

This time, the lowest ranked candidate seemed to get 1913 votes.

If I were running for office, the vote could would probably not even reach double digits. So I think they can boast about their results.

-----

However, the deposit of three million yen for the Upper House(e.g. Tokyo area) has naturally be confiscated.

The refund condition is to get vote numbers more than the total number of valid votes, divided by the number of seats available, and divided by 8.

In this case, the valid votes was 6,477,702, so dividing by 6, and by 8, the number of votes cast was 134,952.

This time, in the Tokyo electoral district, there are 24 people who will forfeit 3 million yen (68% of the candidates).

I heard that the cost for one candidate is almost 400,000,000 yen in the Upper House election, so It is clear that the forfeiture of this deposit is not to recover expenses, but to "prevent abuse of candidacy (suffrage).

300,000 yen would not prevent abuse, and with 30 million yen, the candidates would be only the wealthy.

This 3 million yen is a very sensitive price.

-----

You might think that "why do they throw their money into the trash?", however, let think it again This is very cost-performance choice.

They can be on TV(broadcasting of political views) and get a space of election gazette(that might be more than a few million yen, on news paper).

They can speak what they want to say on the TV, and write what they want to write on the gazette.

If they were not to use this election system, they might not realize that on their life.

I don't know how much a business person spend money for drinking party for their life, however, if they can get a chance to broadcast their policies to people in district, the 3 million yen might be extremely cheap.

It is a win-win choice for both a boss and subordinates rather than telling "old brave story" harassments at drinking party and be hated by them.

-----

Let me think it again.

Why not make your boss run for office, with tales of "old brave story" harassment ?

Your boss can "old brave story" to the masses, compared to a drinking party.

The subordinates can sneer at their bosses for losing the election so miserably, It is a win-win.

There is no problem legal problem, if your boss is not a government employee.
