I want to go back to the report that I am writing now.
I am trying several analysis methods in the study at present, so I am going to make one chapter for the introduction.
According to one of the methods, I wonder if I use this picture for the introduction.
Though everybody can understand the method easily only to watch this picture, I am afraid that I will never get away with being scolded by my manager,
I am just a business person, so I should not run a risk.
-----
Apart from the above,
the significance of reports is to make readers understand well.
In my opinion, it becomes to be hard to read reports that include moral, dignity, and quality.
When I was a new face, I asked an adviser whether I can submit a report as four-frame cartoon seriously.
I remember the puzzled adviser’s face very well.

In a train, people who talk on the telephone decreased recently.
After the time of around ten years, a recognition that the call in the train "was manner violation" seemed to penetrate.
In addition, the price reduction of music pod gives up an environment to prevent you from hearing such an unpleasant conversation (It is said that it is for the sounds like only one side of the conversation)
In other words "ear plugs" has been completed.
-----
Therefore I think that "nasal plug" should be needed.
That is not fashionable pop-type a swimmer usually uses, but from the view of engineering.
"The "nasal plug" which nose breathing is possible and cannot confirm from the outside".
I think that the potential market is frightful.
Because it is medical care and a required item of the care spot as well as everyday life.
-----
Then I am going to go my parents home to do housework from tomorrow to the end of this summer holidays.
with three works I will have to finished.
In addition, the counts of action list is increasing, because my junior daughter want to go with me.
-----
My hope is simple.
"Finish the summer holiday as soon as possible"
(Continuation from yesterday)
Anyway, "cheap and nasty" I thought, and I tried to get "summer slacks" from Amazon with just joking , however,
the slacks were surprisingly good for me, about the size, pleasant texture and normal design (for me).
For me, the value of the slacks are
"Very Good ★★★★★"
I might have won by a fluke, so I re-tried to get the same slacks in other color(dark blue).
Even having the appearance of school uniform, I have no complaint to wear it and to go to office everyday.
-----
Some people say that "mass consumer society" had finished " for quite a long time, though, I am impressed by this reversed business model at the bottom of my heart.
This model goes well with Amazon's return policy, that permits good returns without conditions in many cases.
Moreover, I think that this business model is revolutionary, because
they find a consumer layer, who are not interested in clothes design and entertainment at all, but pursuit the function only.
-----
However, in order to derive advantage from this service, we should keep our body specifications into the standard.
The people who are too big, too small, too fat, and too slim are excluded from this service.
On second thought, however, it is same as the ordinal clothing department.
Previously, I attended a lecture whose speaker came from a small country in Africa.
As I recall, he was trying to make an translation software between their mother mother tongue and English, e.t.c.
He said that the most important problem is the asymmetry postulate of amount of vocabulary.
In short, the vocabularies of the minority language dictionary is just one tenth of those of English
I asked him a question after the lecture.
Ebata:"I am interested to hear about the less numbers of vocabulary in your country. I don't mean to be rude, but I want know the reason. Now I have two ideas.
(1)Representational power of your native language
or
(2)Your native language can express a variety of meaning using complex combination of the vocabulary.
Speaker:"Both are incorrect. The reason is simple, "a development of electronic dictionary is delayed"
-----
"Quite so", I think.
Wherever human beings live, I think, the concept coming into being, should be almost same naturally.
For an extreme example, I cannot bring a language without a concept of "anger" to mind.
On the other hand, I also think that people might be happy in the country where they live.
Especially, for a person like me who is not good at "anger control"
(Continuation from yesterday)
When I look it up on the net, I will have plenty of information about "direct burial".
The reason why people can choose "direct burial",
(1) Economic circumstances (there is no money)
(2) Changes in the view of religion (I do not have to call a monk as there is no faith in particular)
(3) Dilution of human relations (Since there is no participant, it is not necessary to do a funeral)
And, each is a good reason.
In my case, it is (2) (3).
As in (1), money may be gone, even if I have money, I will recommend going an overseas trip and learning a language and culture of the country with the money for my family
Many people in the city center seems to choose "direct burial". Because urban areas tend to avoid such "disturbance".
Conversely, in rural areas it will be hard to do "direct burial". There are complaints from neighbors as well as relatives.
"Do not something" may require the same or even more energy than "doing something".
Even if I am alone, I will accept a challenge to a quarrel. However in this case, the target will not be me but my "survivor".
-----
All these stories are acknowledged by family members - although conditional.
My family has ordered me that "Make it clear by handwriting for our safety" (Because it will annoy me, I will tell them that digitally sign for blogs in the last few days, is enough.
In the end of the sentence, I will add the following sentences.
"The reason I decided not to do my a funeral, is YOU, who annoys my family. I don't want you to come to me"
"After reading this, go away"

Well, it seems happy that I was able to witness in the early days of PC in my life.
But at the same time, I have always been both respected and persecuted because I could handle PCs.
At that time, "otaku" was a generic name for everyone who handles PCs.
Anime lovers weren't called "otaku". In the first place, the content of anime was not as full as it is now.
I remember that the idea that "it is shameful that good adults were still watching manga (x anime)" was common sense at the time.
"A person who has a conversation with a PC, can't really talk to humans"
A society with tremendous prejudice, that was the era of "PC creation".
-----
In the 40 years since then, PCs have been developed to work as portable devices that function as "the second brain".
This is a future that was unforeseen 40 years ago.
Now almost Japanese enjoys and benefits from the technology of the last 40 years.
So I'm gonna tell you from the top right now
"Prostrate and apologize to me"

Most of the numbers I have in my head regarding COVID-19 are in this column.
According to data from the Diamond Princess,
- Chance of infection: 20%
- Chance of death of an infected person: 2%
So,
I think that my mortality rate from COVID-19, in the normal range of life, is
"0.4% (4 in 1,000) + alpha (taking into account age)
On the other hand,
- the mortality rate for those infected with influenza is (in my age group) 0.01% (*)
So,
On the basis of one flu death, COVID-19 will kill 20 people.
And it's not off the mark to think
Moreover, it is a disgusting virus that can rapidly and drastically change human condition and cause considerable and terrible suffering to humans.
This is because the virus (any virus) has a survival strategy of trying to spread the infection by inflicting terrible suffering on humans for as long as possible, and by gathering people (doctors, nurses) to treat them as much as possible.
After all this time, I am reminded that "new corona virus = killer virus".
-----
"The mortality rate from novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is 7.5%"
When I saw this phrase in the newspaper, I was pale.
- "7.5%" instead of "0.4% (mortality in daily life)" or "2% (mortality after infection)"?
- What does that mean?
- What's the population size?
- I don't care if it is lower than the West!
To tell you the truth, I was upset.
- If you're infected and hospitalized, one out of ten times I won't make it out alive?
===== News article from here =====
The National Center for Global Health and Medicine analyzed the course of 2,638 hospitalized patients from March to early July 2020. At the time of admission, 68.1%, or 1,796 people were in mild or moderate condition. 840 people, or 31.9%, were seriously ill.
There were 197 hospital admissions, or 7.5% of all deaths, which is significantly less than in the UK and the US, where the mortality rate is over 20%.
===== News article (to here) =====
197 patients ÷ 0.075 = 2,626.66, which clearly indicates that the population of this data represents "2,638 inpatients".
So, if the COVID-19 makes you an "inpatient" instead of an "overnight care for minor illnesses",
"One out of ten (13 to be exact) won't make it out alive."
seems to be a fact.
And in the West.
"One out of five may not make it out alive"
"COVID-19 is a disease with an extremely high mortality rate"
I reaffirm the fact that, and I am pale once again.
-----
Here's my personal opinion.
If your child and you with an unconscious infected, are going home to your parents, your old parents infected, sick, hospitalized, and your old parents won't return to the hospital.
I can see the "flow" of this.
"7.5%"
This number give me a strong sense of that reality.
-----
I was the one who killed my own parents with my own hands, however,
The fewer people who have to live with these sense, the better it is, I think.
Today, I would like to share one of my scary stories with you.
-----
The other day, I got on the Shinkansen to go home for a day trip to support my mother's discharge from the hospital.
"It was so cold and I almost froze"
In the old days, rides and movie theaters were set to freezing temperatures -- or rather, the air circulation system was not fully functioning -- and some places were "too hot" while others were "too cold".
However, in recent years, with the development of air circulation methods through 3D simulation calculations, I believe that these problems have been solved to a large extent.
So, when I felt the unusually cold, I thought to myself with many questions
In fact, the people around me didn't seem to have any trouble with the cold.
-----
That day, I was on the Shinkansen on my way home.
I pulled out my father's work clothes, his belongings, from my parents' house and stuffed them inside my knapsack, however, at thit time,
"It was so hot, and I was sweating"
When I looked around, I couldn't see anything like that.
-----
The cause was clear.
"Deterioration or malfunction of the cold temperature control function of "Tomoichi Ebata""
Since about the year before last, my body has been reacting to the air conditioning in the office in a messed up way, freezing and sweating when I come to work.
I have also found that there is a huge gap between the 29 and 30 degrees Celsius temperature setting of the air conditioner at bedtime, which dominates our physical condition the next day.
There are days when I can relax and rest without air conditioning on a tropical night, feeling, "It's nice and warm," and there are days when I can wake up with air conditioning on a rainy night, feeling , "It's too hot".
This situation was that,
"Tomoichi Ebata" himself is losing control over the handling of the subject he controls"
-----
My sister and I were really worried about our late father going to bed without air conditioning on tropical nights.
We tried as much as we could to tell my father in his later years to 'turn on the air conditioner at night anyway'.
However, I come to think that
"The air conditioner may have been freezing my father out"
At that time, I even think that my father was being "abused" by the air conditioner.
As I remembered the "cold in the Shinkansen" this time.
-----
This problem is, frankly, insanely difficult.
I certainly don't think that my sister and I were wrong to be worried about "heat stroke" when my father couldn't use the air conditioner properly.
However, I have come to feel that the air conditioner setting of 31 degrees Celsius (Listen to me! , it is "31" degrees Celsius) is either too cold or too hot, depending on the day, and I don't know what the "right" answer is anymore.
-----
As I have told you before, there are only two ways for a human being to die.
(1) you can die before you develop dementia or (2) you can die after you develop dementia.
And many people will be (2).
The person in (2) will not be able to operate the air conditioner, and they will not be able to operate the air conditioner and will have to leave it to someone else to operate.
This means that in the near future, I will have to spend my life in a "freezing summer" without being able to tell anyone about it.
-----
What do you think, this horror?
It's a lot scarier than those ghost stories.
However, listen to me. This is not a fictional story, but a real one.
I restarted the operation which were stopped on last Saturday, to avoid the risk of my slipped back.
Before that, I wanted to know the aaccurate weight of the TV, so I pushed the scale under the TV.
I realized that this operation is beyond my imagination for me, as an amature.
However, it was me to install this TV more that a decade ago.
In addition,at that time, I bought it from a net site, so there should not have any assistant.
I don't remember how I could have install this TV by myself.
If you know of any (occult-like) stories about 'TVs gaining weight over the months', please let us know.
That asaide.
-----
The problem is how to make the TV climb up a tremendously high mountain in front of me.
My idea was very primitive. 'Lifting the TV while packing up the concrete blocks'.
However, this method requires a total of 28 concrete blocks. the prices were no problem (about 100 yen per unit), but another problem was more about how to use about 28 concrete pieces.
I looked inside the warehouse and noticed that there were two stepladders. Using these, I can lift the TV up to half height of the chests.
To support the TV in a high position, the two ends were tied together with rope and raised on a stepladder, hooking one end to the other.
I asked my wife to move the stepladder at the same time I raised one edge of the TV.
Then, after coming to the top of the stepladder, I asked my wife to insert the concrete block and continued the same way.
After stacking seven concrete blocks, I found that a few more centimetres were missing.
However, I ran out of the concrete blocks I had prepared.
I stood on the unstable stepladder, lifted the remaining few centimetres, hooked the TV stand to the edge of the chest, and the rest was pushed in by us with great effort.
We thus succeeded in lifting a TV weighing over 75 kg onto a 140 cm.
-----
However, this was quite dangerous.
There was a possibility that the pile of blocks could collapse, and the stepladder could overstrength and self-destruct.
It is absolutely sure nobody give me sympathy even if I am seriously injured.
However, for me, the attitude of 'ask the contractor for everything' is something of a 'lose-lose' situation.
Well, this is my nature.
-----
Today's diary meminded me that the column I wrote before.
After all, I don't seem to have progressed at all since my youth.
I suddenly remembered that my (late) mother used to say, 'I hated chicken after I saw it being slaughter.
The process of slaughtering fish has been televised quite a bit, but I have not seen a chicken being slaughtered very often.
The same is true for slaughtering pigs and cows.
-----
I think it is essential to experience the process of taking an animal's life for food.
Especially in our family, the consumption of chicken is higher than that of other foods.
As I said, I'm not suggesting that "How to Slaughter a Chicken" should be a free summer study (there is a high probability you will have the same trauma as my mother), but if you are a senior like me, you should be fine.
Maybe.
-----
If it is difficult to experience, I would like to visit first, so I googled it and found it easy to find.
Even if it's impossible to ask people to do this on a "field trip," I think it's a good idea to do it on a "conference tour event," don't you?
You may have a small number of applicants and the project may fall through.
