    • I had been using Mattermost until just before the event, but there was a possibility that we might not be able to connect locally (a fear that was unfounded).
    • It is better to increase the volume of information distribution, but it is not good to push out the communication channel, so a separate chat room was created for chit-chat.
    • Dice and rock-paper-scissors stamps by default, good.
    • I was asked after a while if there was a ā€œpinningā€ function. I answered ā€œNo, if you need it, you can use the pinned chat to ā€œforwardā€ the message,ā€ but it never went into operation.

      • day before departure [day 0 https://www.facebook.com/nishiohirokazu/posts/ 10218939450693795]
      • After this, the amount of input information was so large that Chinese was not fast enough to record it, so I went back to Japanese.
      • Also, WeChat communication among people who came to the area was more important than writing to people in Japan.
  • Arrive at hotel around midnight Facebook

  • VPN Information

    • They recommended ExpressVPN for 30 days free, but I was too tired to do that on the first day!

    • ā€œaffordable is important in educationā€
      • The context of small drones, that it is important for education to have access to them yourself.
        • I understood that it is important to be able to buy inexpensive products, own them, and tinker with them as much as I want, instead of spending limited time at programming schools with expensive products that cost tens of thousands of dollars.
  • You can also program drones in block language and Python.

    • Somersaults are also one line
      • Itā€™s an easy mechanism to do great things by adding a middle layer, PHP-like.
    • Images taken below from the drone are sent to a computer, where the position is estimated and misalignment correction information is fed back to the drone.
      • The cloth that is drawn underneath has a black and white pattern on it, which probably acts as a marker.
      • Drones collided with each other during the demonstration.
      • The fabric was flapping in the wind from the drone itself, which may have caused the crash.
      • If the floor was like a gymnasium, they would have taped it, but since it was a hotel conference room, I guess the situation is that they couldnā€™t fix it.
  • Actually split into teams of 5 players each to play against each other.

    • We had hot pot for dinner. While we were eating, Mr. Isamu Ishikawa from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs talked to us about China, and I learned a lot. I can only see a future where everyone will be active globally in 10 years time. Facebook

    • The graphic data showing that Japan, and the older generation in Japan, underestimates China compared to the rest of the world, and the glimpse I saw of bookstores made me feel a sense of urgency to see this with my own eyes. I will go see the exhibition tomorrow.

  • A lot of Keigo Higashino is stacked flat.

    • image
  • My impression of Shenzhen书城 Facebook

    • I donā€™t get the impression that the ā€œtechnical level is very high.ā€ Rather, my impression is that it is both high and low, and that there is variation.
    • While the Japanese publishing industry has been optimized to produce books that sell well (i.e., books for beginners for amateurs) and has made it difficult to produce highly specialized books, the Chinese market has not been optimized in the same way. Related: Incorrect KPI setting.
    • I think this trend of optimization has been strengthened by the shrinking of the Japanese publishing market, so it may not happen in China in the foreseeable future.
    • In China, the number of Chinese readers is much larger than in Japan, and this may be a reason for publishing technically sophisticated content with a small target audience without much concern. In terms of not having to be sensitive to the volume of intended readers when selecting a theme, a comparison could be made with the dojinshi market, such as the Gijutsu Shokuten (Technical Book Exhibition).
  • This is the biggest gap when compared to Japan.

    • image
    • Thereā€™s a military section.
    • In Japan, illustrated books for young children include Self-Defense Forces vehicles, and the printing of additional copies is stopped (i.e., no more copies can be printed and distributed).
    • While in Japan it is considered taboo and its distribution is halted, the configuration of this bookstore suggests that it would normally be distributed in China.
    • If publishers fear the risk of stopping reprints, they are less likely to publish books that mention those kinds of topics.
      • As a result, there is little way to know what the rest of the world is up to, etc.
      • The lack of knowledge increases fear and even more so emotional repulsion: Knowledge is the antidote to fear.
    • Shelf
      • image
      • This flat green book is labeled ā€œFuture Wars.ā€
        • ā€œFuture Wars: Science and Technology in Global New Collisionā€ (Science and Technology and Global New Collision)
        • Originally published in English as ā€œFuture War: Preparing for the New Global Battlefieldā€ (Amazon)
        • The Japanese translation is ā€œFuture War: Can the U.S. Military Win the War? ā€ (Amazon)
          • Itā€™s a title that makes me wonder if itā€™s being translated properly.
      • 3 photos
        • Iā€™m curious to see what ā€œThe Great Japanese Defeatā€ is all about.
      • What kind of books did you have?ā€ The first thing I remembered was ā€œClausewitz and Sun Tzuā€™s The Art of War were lined up.ā€
    • Technical book corner
      • image
      • Hacker Offensive and Defense Compendium: a book that outlines attack and defense methods with respect to electronic intrusions and more.

  • Interesting devices

  • Successfully used alipay in Shenzhen for person-to-person money transfer and payment at a convenience store.

      • Paying 50 yuan for a bomb at a convenient store, you can feel like youā€™ve splurged about 5,000 yen, but itā€™s actually 750 yen, so itā€™s cosy!
  • Twitter must have decided that I was not Japanese because I tweeted in simplified Chinese, and for some reason started showing ads in Hangul (lol).

  • Itā€™s never good to praise something to the detriment of something else.

  • People want to go to the pool.

    • 165 RMB for a swimsuit, 25 RMB for a swimming cap

Day 3 (8/12)

  • Note: While tethered on someone elseā€™s phone, I was able to receive SMS from a Japanese au, but not from a Chinese company

  • Visit to ē¼–ē؋ēŒ«(CodeMao) for Japan-China exchange

    • Hackathon with a group of local students [video https://www.facebook.com/yasulab/videos/10156423463650869/? tn=H-R]
    • imageimage
    • The IDE of the ē¼–ē؋ cat is quite amazing.
    • It was interesting to see the creators play a game with the Chinese students during the ice break where they were told to be in groups of numbers.
      • The phenomenon of one person being left out after being told to ā€œpair up in twosā€ is slowly and incrementally generated.
      • Reduce the number of people by a little bit, like ā€œeightā€ or ā€œfive.
      • Those who were not selected leave the program after losing, and those who were not selected continue.
      • Of course, those who actively form groups win out.
        • Bias in favor of positive group formation.
        • The management can observe who is not good at group formation.
    • Language barriers
      • This person is a native speaker of Japanese and speaks some English, and the other person is a native speaker of Chinese and speaks some English.
      • Would we be able to form a team and communicate properly in this state? I was worried.
      • I was thinking of helping out as a Japanese-English interpreter who can read Chinese if needed.
      • When the lid was opened, the students were conversing directly by converting Japanese and Chinese using Baidu Translate.
      • It is logged and rather preferable to verbal conversations.
      • I expected that there would be clerks and security guards who did not speak English, so I tried to learn some of the local language, but the locals rather used translation hardware or automatic translation on their phones, which made me feel sorry for being so weak-minded.
        • Yesterday at the RoboMaster venue, I pronounced ā€œę“—ꉋ闓ā€(toilet) with my mouth to the security guard and he didnā€™t get the message, but it was poor thinking not to come up with ā€œlet your phone pronounce itā€ or ā€œwrite it down and show it to youā€ there.
        • Jerry Chen Google Translate works fine, but i think is helpful to learn the basics in the local language wherever you go.

        • Nishio Hirokazu äøé”™ļ¼ŒIt is better, but it is not ā€œmustā€ anymore. I must keep in mind it is not necessary for activity of new age students

      • A team consists of one Chinese and one Japanese person each, so the group that is not good at English can use translation software in real time for the hackathon.

      • Itā€™s a great time. Even if you donā€™t have language skills, you can create something together for the same task with almost no loss of time.

  • Adults are free to go out for lunch because apparently there is no lunch.

      • Ate plain food (vegetarian food)
      • The quality of the soy meat has evolved a lot since I had it five years ago.
    • The store map is a giant touch panel that displays the route to the store in 3D when you enter the store.
      • Seemingly good but UX is not good for the following reasons
        • If one person is using it, others cannot see it.
        • In the first place, icons of stores in order of name donā€™t make much sense to me as a foreigner.
      • I asked the manned information desk for the location of the DRAG STORE, but they wouldnā€™t tell me.
        • By writing ā€œčÆā€(medicine) on my iPhone and showing it to them, they told me that there was a supermarket in B1.
      • imageimage
        • There are products from many countries, including Japanese products.

        • There are countless kids in the early grades or kindergarten.
        • Heā€™s sitting on the floor reading a book.
          • I didnā€™t see any Japanese cartoons.
          • I was reading some sort of educational comic book or something like that from Gakken.
        • Adults also sit and read.
        • The same is true of yesterdayā€™s Shenzhen Book City.
      • I felt the underlying strength of science education.
        • Keisuke Sogawa The same trend can be seen in Shanghai, where a large percentage of households invest in education.

        • Keisuke Sogawa: Yes, exactly like you said investment, not spending.

        • Nishio Hirokazu Itā€™s not about spending or redistribution, itā€™s about ā€œinvestmentā€!

    • Barber
    • Robots sort books at the nearby Houan Library.
      • ā€œWhen I went to the library, I saw a robot used in logistics sorting sorting books. The children with their families were very excited to see it, and I thought that technology is becoming more accessible to them.

      • Shanghai Library_First robotic sorting system in China at Shenzhen Baoan District Library
      • They say if you have a passport, you can get in.
      • I wanted to go see this, but unfortunately itā€™s Monday and the library is closed.
      • I wanted to see the college bookstore, but they said it would be impossible because they were on summer break.

        • image
        • I googled it when I got back home.
          • General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out the following at a meeting of the Partyā€™s activities for education and practical work on the popular line. (omission) The ā€œfour evil windsā€ of formalism, bureaucracy, hedonism, and extravagance are against the character and purpose of the Communist Party of China, and are the problems that the masses resent the most and are most dissatisfied with, and are also the serious root causes of damage to the relationship between the Party and the masses and between the cadres and the masses.

          • Is this what youā€™re talking about?
      • When I left the station, there were people selling receipts and motorcycle cabs that carried people around.
        • The receipt clerk will call out ā€œfurpiaoā€ (ē™ŗē„Ø) while holding out a card-like object.
          • They collect receipts, turn them into furpiao, and then sell them.
      • Slightly different from other fashionable stations.
      • Walking a bit far from the station.

      • Reviews from people who bought the book
  • Nanzan Museum 10:00-18:00, last admission 17:30

    • I didnā€™t have time to go.
  • Return to the center of the venue from Nanzan

    • Seems to depend on the station whether the metal detector is there before or after you buy your ticket.
    • After I got through first, the ticket vending machine had to start over outside.
    • Alipay timed out (super hour) at the ticket machine, probably because it was right around the time I was going home.
    • The map app was not connected for a while and I had to miss one train while waiting.
  • Return to the hotel from the maritime center - Go to [vivo Lab Concept Store

  • I didnā€™t have time to visit the nearby Reform and Open Museum, but according to those who did, it was just a regular museum.

      • Peach sap from peach trees, or ā€œpeach oil,ā€ was used.
      • image
  • QQ sugar, a souvenir requested by my wife, which I couldnā€™t find on my own, but a local man guided me to a private store rather than a beautiful supermarket because it is a kind of candy.

    • It was in a store like this.
      • imageimage
      • They cost 2 yuan, or 30 yen apiece. Thatā€™s no wonder you canā€™t find them in fashionable supermarkets lined with imported goods.
      • You can pay with Alipay at these stores
  • Creatives who want to play Switch.

    • image
    • Iā€™ve noticed a few examples of children saying, ā€œDonā€™t you have to go all the way overseas to do that? I realized that for adults who are already free, overseas is ā€œa place to do things you canā€™t do in Japanā€, while for children whose freedom is still restricted in Japan, it is ā€œa place to do things you canā€™t do in Japanā€.
  • I told him that it would be better to look at medium-sized modules such as coin identification modules or receipt printer modules instead of small electronic parts or large finished products in an electronics town, and he pointed out that it is not cost-effective for stores to put such small and large products on the shelves, and that it is also not safe for buyers to pay for them after checking their operation in escrow. I was also told that it is easier to find modules on aliexpress than in stores, and that it is safer to pay after confirming the operation through an escrow transaction.

  • Of course it is good that larger libraries in urban areas are improved, but for children living in rural areas, they want their local libraries to be improved, right? Libraries are a system where books are collected in one place and moved by humans, and as the logistics system evolves, it will be the books that move, not the humans.

  • The security guard in Shenzhen, with a plastic bottle holder next to his baton or radio, completely integrated with his equipment, so there is an affordance that ā€œthe guard drinks waterā€. src

    • In Japan, some elderly people criticize security guards and bus drivers for drinking water, maybe they should put plastic bottle holders on their equipment and on the driverā€™s seat!

Day 4

  • iflytekā€™s automatic translator is expensive at 2,600 yuan, but it can translate offline in major languages such as Japanese.

    • It would be fun to buy that machine in the Electric Town and tour around while using it.
  • I said, ā€œIā€™m a parrot,ā€ and he recommended youdao (꜉道) translation app with a parrotā€™s symbol.

      • Unlike cash, the person who paid has evidence of payment.
      • No risk of cash theft
    • I understood that this was the case.
    • Just as the creation of the information communication layer called the Internet has lowered the initial investment costs of the information business and made it easier to start a business, the creation of a cashless layer will create another new business.
    • alipay is not a ā€œstore payment methodā€ but a unified money distribution layer that says ā€œyou can pay stores and transfer money between individuals all the wayā€.
      • Iā€™d like to tell my past self who thought, ā€œWhy donā€™t you just use SUICA?ā€ and say, ā€œTell me when you can use SUICA to pay your allotment or give money to your friends.ā€
    • For example, the company cafeteria at Cybozu now has a Suica reader, and each person pays by operating a button on the reader, but if the Suica layer is replaced by Alipay, the device can be a QR code.
      • This means no more rental costs for reading equipment.
    • You can create an Alipay app on top of the Alipay layer. When scanned, the app will ask for access rights.

    • Crystalline vibration is basically a crystal oscillator, but if a modifier is added, the meaning may change. I wonder if a voice surface crystal oscillator is a type of microphone that uses Rochelle salt crystals to convert voice surface waves into electricity, since voice surface waves are waves that travel over the surface of an object.
      • Apparently not. A voice surface resonator is a SAW resonator, which generates surface waves by forming comb-shaped electrodes on the surface of a quartz crystal in alternating directions. This makes it possible to create a transmitter with a sharp frequency response and short wavelengths in accordance with the pitch of the comb. The linked R315M datasheet states 315MHz.
