Today I said about the middle level

Can you say that you have commissioned the private sector? A weather forecaster predicts the weather on his own. On the other hand, using a supercomputer, the weather is expected with a high degree of accuracy, but it seems that such high-level information is not disclosed to the general public. Things have levels, and there are high levels, medium levels, and low levels. The interesting thing about software is that there is software that is easy to use so that anyone can use it at first. I feel like there was a lot of such software on the Macintosh. At first, anyone can use it, but some information will allow you to use it a little higher. You can change the program code a bit, have hidden buttons, or change settings. So, such information is not known to the beginner. So, unless a beginner is interested and starts looking, the beginner cannot use the medium level. They can not do it forever. I thought that such a mechanism was interesting. People who think that "I can...

Come to the outskirts of the city, get a little strange feeling

But when the sun went down and the scenery got dark, I wanted to go back to the hangout..... When I come to the outskirts of the city, I get a little strange feeling. Is this small town also part of this county? If I move straight a few kilometers I’ll be in another county. So to speak, this little town is a border town. The air is clear. High mountains can be seen nearby, and there are few people. I can imagine that the people living in this town might go shopping in the neighboring county. The opposite is also easy to imagine. In other words, geographical boundaries have no effect on ordinary life. Why is the medium not easy to recognize? Information itself has no power to move. Information is transmitted by the medium. Even visual or auditory information is diffused and shared through the medium of air. Therefore, it is clear that even the medium is part of the information, but we are not particularly aware of it. Because the medium is always tr...

How about a piece of paper?

Speaking of IT-related products, almost all items on sale are old-fashioned, but I read an article that found good products even in that..... I don’t have a notebook. That’s a lot of damage if you lose your notebook with information. You must also assume an unforeseen situation when a notebook with detailed personal information, such as an individual name, phone number, or address, is in the hands of another person. For this reason, I don’t write a memorandum in my notebook. The amount of information written on a piece of paper is not enormous First, a medium TV set - notebook a piece of paper if you lose a lot of damage less damage unforeseen situation must assume information detailed should be noted amount not enormous throw it away as soon as possible when you drop it make a sound won’t know advantages you can find The amount of information written on a piece of paper is not enormous Instead, I put a...

From Class Society to Typified Society: The Rise of Information Capital and AI Governance

The act was small, deliberate, and ancient: a civic practice for an age where information, not just gold or land, had become capital.… They called it the Typing—the slow, quiet remaking of the world into patterns. When Mina was born, people still talked about class in textbooks and museum exhibits: who owned land, factories, capital. By the time she was old enough to read the news herself, another grammar had taken hold. Wealth no longer lived only in bank vaults and factories; it lived in trails — the clicks and pauses, the half-typed searches, the times people lingered on a recipe or a political thread. That trail, when stitched together across millions of lives, became something with value: information capital. At first the change was called metaphors — “data is the new oil,” “the attention economy” — phrases journalists used to make a strange economy feel familiar. But the engineers and the platforms had a more precise name for ...

Australia’s Social Media Showdown: The Old Guard vs. the New Digital Moguls

It is a clash between government policy aimed at protecting a vulnerable generation and the unwavering business models of tech giants who have built their empires on a seamless integration of content and commerce, and will not willingly relinquish th The Australian government is on the verge of a landmark decision, one that reflects a fundamental shift in the media landscape. The upcoming ban on social media for under-16s, set to take effect in December, is the culmination of a decades-long evolution in how information and commerce are intertwined. Thirty years ago, the internet began its ascendancy, displacing television and radio as the primary advertising and information medium. This was just the beginning. The advent of mobile phones with internet access and integrated payment functions transformed devices into digital wallets, blurring the lines between communication and commerce. Video streaming, in particular, has become an excepti...

The Ledger and the Steam

And in a neighborhood café, where every cup carried a familiar name before it carried a price, that invisible ledger was often the one that mattered most.… Every morning at 6:15, before the commuter trains filled the platforms, the espresso machine at Café Kashiwa exhaled its first cloud of steam. The café occupied the ground floor of a forty-year-old building beside a neighborhood shopping street in western Tokyo. It seated only eighteen people. Students reviewed vocabulary before school. Retired couples divided a single slice of cheesecake. Freelancers spent afternoons with laptops beneath signs politely requesting that one drink be ordered every ninety minutes. The shop was run by a married couple in their late fifties. Masaru handled purchasing, bookkeeping, and maintenance. Yukiko remembered everyone’s favorite cup. “Medium roast, no sugar.” “Extra hot.” “Your granddaughter passed the entrance examination, didn’t she?” Customers often joked that Yukik...
