when i walk into any bookshops, recently, i can found few books were mis-placed.
1, the company, hire their staff with no training, or they just want somebody in that post.
2, the staff, the shopkeeper, or the book keeper, lack of a true common sense, or has some confession about common sense.
3, the bookkeeper, may be, do not love the read book. i am so sad that, if someone ever read few pages, or just look the book deeper than the title, he/she will know where the book should go.
4, the manager is "hea", he/she never check the bookshelf, the check whether his/her labour did a correct job. otherwise, he/she also has some wrong common sense with the book keeper.
this also reflect a major problem or workfroce in hk
1, people has their job is because they need to be feed.
2, Hong Kong is a Big city, but our labour need to work for life! not for their dream!
3, it is the company drive the public, what kind of job they have. the public don't have a fucking choice at all.
4, a total mis-placement in workforce. HK will be hard to be more competitive for hard-working, coz labour in Main-land and India are more cheaper and hard-work.
5, people with dreams! only happen in dream!
6, we are slave, for the capitalism.

To Martin Lee
after reading your article about Olympic Game 2008. i found that your view points are inspiriting. however, the newspapers, Mass media, they only pick up part of your sentences and make biased judgment, that make me feel sad. i guess, not many people will really read your orignal article, instead, they will believe what newspapers conveied.
i suggest, besides of saying No Sorry, you can also remind the public that, some people only pick up part of your words. than, i hope, the public will know who is really doing somethings good for China, for HK.

Truth value
i mean, the truth value of a product, a service.
for a product, the truth value may be the (Price - profit) by the retailer.
let say a nike runner, it sell for 100 to a customer, and the profit is 20, so the truth pric is 80.
what this 80 contain? it contains the material price(rubber, cotton,etc), the factory profit, labour wage, transpotation. well, it seem to be able to calculate, but it si not, how to calculate the truth value of labour wage? and also, how to calucalue the truth value of the material price?
depart from those truth price, hwo about the truth price of a service... how to measure?
for most people, the price of a goods is defined from discussion between seller and buyer. yes, this is the market price. not the truth price.
the truth price is somekind of value, absolutly defined the value of a goods or a service, which independ of the location, time or currency but the product itself.
for anexample, the truth value of being an engineer is equal for any engineer (i mean the same kind of engineer in same post, equal among of work), however, the market price of each engineer may be different, because of the company, the socialty, the econmonic power, the demand and supply.

a Queastion!!
Today, one of my friends, he take out the polarizer from hand calculator.
when he put the polarizer horizontally, in front of laptop screen, it transparent, when rotate 90 degree, it becomes dark. trivial.
however, when we flip the polarizer, things inverse. it becomes dark when putting horizontally, and transparent when vertical!!
anyone can explain that??? hint: the light come out from the screen is polarized in some direction.

what is their life cycle?
----they bit human, and human will become them in few days or few hours. they die until someone cut their head. oh, i should say, they stop moving, not die, because they are death human. oh, is it impossible to die twice? um... i need to spend more time on this study.
where is there teenager??

How to define the truth value of a currency??
first, there is a price for making currency.
if the price is low than the currency buying power (printed value), everyone will make it by them selve.
if the price is higher than the printed value. than the currency become useless, (in case of the goods is easy to carry), people will trade goods from goods.
so, the idea printed value should be the price of making them.
ok, so, how to found the printed value?? i will think about it.

MiniBus
many people will complain about minibus, because it will be very fast sometimes, that scare people.
well, i have some opposite views.
i like speedy minibus, coz it save my time.
it is safe when it run fast. now a day, the technology can allow them to drive over 120km/h without slipping. but people feel unsafe. ok, so why people don't ban the roller coaster?? minibus is daily transportation! we need them, we need time! why set the stupid 80km/h limit?
and also, think about it. the driver is not mad at all, he know what will happen when accident happened: he may die and leave his family alone; he need to pay for the minibus company; he can not be a driver anymore. and many other reasons. minibus driver got fucking responsibilities. he know what he is doing! man.
moreover, minibus driver go over the routine many many times, he know where to break, where can boots, he is the road expert. so, why don't trust him??
if you say, accident is something unpredictable. ok, 80km/h, i think no one can survive under this speed. why don't you set the limit to 20km/h?? it will be saft, turst me, i study physics.

Traveler's dilemma + prisoner dilemma
there is new version of this dilemma.
there are 2 people travel by plane. they are brought a same gift, let say, a vase. after get off the plane, they found that their vases were broken. so, they go to ask for money from the airline.
the manager told them, he will only give them a maximum price of 100 each, however, because he does not know what the exact price of the vase, and he don't want to be fool, so, they need to tell him the price of the vase individually.
he will pay the minimum price only. and the one who gave him the lowest price, he will give him 2 dollar more from the other.
if you are one of the traveler?? what is your price???
(think about it, at least for 5 seconds, please.)
(i hope you had thought for 5 seconds, otherwise, you should be shame for yourself. a little poor guy.)
by prisoner dilemma (if you reduced the maximum price from 100 to 3), the most "suitable" and "reasonable" price you should give is 2 dollars.
the "reason" is: OK, both of you can say 100. however, if you say 99, but the others still say 100. you will get 101 = min(99, 100) + 2. well, the other will also think of this! so he will say 98 and get 100 = min(99,98)+2...... thing will go on like this again and again. finally, we have to solve
min(x,y)+2, where x, y from 0 to 100 (i bet you won't say below 0, smart guy)
and than, you will get 2 dollars!!!
this is quite a ridiculous result from the very powerful Game theory!!! which a lot business idiot treat it as a bible!!!
something wrong with that!!!

all are special = no one special !?
long time ago, there is a movie ("the incredible"), inside, soemone had said, "if everyone is special, than no one is special"
well, few of my friends are teacher in Hong Kong school now, and they had told me, it is not the case.
they told me, in each class, there will be some Special talent students: hyper-active, autism, concentration-disable, etc..
i ask, why?? they should be in Special school with special care and education. my friends told me, it is all because of those special parents.
those parent want their special child be normalized. how? by put them in normal school. Wa, this idea is like, when you dressed a superman underwear inside out, you can fly. cool! i like to try it right now! could someone brought me the "S" underwear??
and now, the parent take control of our Education policy (well, this is another great thing to be happened. when there are a lot professionals in education policy, but we knew, only the child's parents know what their childed needs, suitable to them, thus, we are going to side out those professionals, and regard our effort to training those is wasting time. )
so, things happen.
the funnest thing is:
when you try to normalized those special, by shut down special schools, you successfully transform every normal school to be .... special school!!

a Question Blog
if listing all one's knew, one's can make publish a book,
if writing one's unknown, one's can build a library.

Heroes -- the series
well, spent almost 20hours to finish the season 1 @ once...... non-stop.... break my personal record.
the idea of this tv series is quite... rich.
* ) there are people have special supernatural ability (which similar to a lot Japanese manga, and in fact, a lot Japanese features inside);
*** ) it try to related things with science (well age of reasoning, no, the age of science explaining);
* # ) it raise up a lot of question about life, destiny, time-line, moral, etc.. a lot of thing only human will care (oh yes, this series is made by human, not monkey, not Ape. in serious, this reflected American start to know, money does not make life rich and meaningful);
# ) there is a bad guy who like to kill, like to taste blood, and also good guy who try to save the world but do not know how ( the funny and interest thing from this part, somehow, "destiny will drive those heroes to stop the evil. i like this creative way of link up people. it reflect the truth, we are not independent at all. and the purpose of the bad guy is, level up your epinephrine );
#* ) but there are more "grey" guys, you can not say they are good or they are bad (yeah, it more like the real world);
#** ) different character will translate there own story from different information they received, or different position they are;
#*** ) some people afraid their super ability, some of them like that (this make me feel wired: American like to be individual, to be unique, but, if the series somehow reflect the truth, American also afraid to be special! they like to be unique but also normal???);
#**** ) American Secret service involved (oh yeas, the agent knew every thing);
there are many many ingredients, most are good, some are bad.
%) the bad thing is, guys in there are still stupid when necessary to kill.
%) a lot of tiny little background of each character can be cut.
and most important, and make me disappointed is:
there is no hero, who can see the truth!!!
i keep on watching it non-stop, i always hope and waiting for that guy to show up and.......
his name is Ryan ;P

Blog Tracker +/- ?
long time ago, this question always struggling me.
there are few points which against or opposite the Blog tracker:
+ you can know how many people visited. if the reason of blogging is let as many as people visit, this help you valuate your blog.
+ it may be encourage your visitor to visit, especially your friends. coz they know you may care the number of visit. well if your blog is boring, it would help.
- it may make you addicted to check the number of visit.
- if you have confident of your blog, you feel your blog will attract people to visit, then you don't need the tracker. Coz, by using tracker to give you a proof for your self, you are somehow questioning your blog.
+ tracker can made you improve your blog. if number of visit is low, this is a driving force to improve the content of your blog.
- tracker may stop improving of your blog. if you satisfy the number of visit, you feel no need to improve your blog.
- tracker only let you know how many visitors browsing your blog, but show no detail of what kind of people visit it. if your blog is somewhat diary, then it is fine, coz people who visit it, is just for fun. if your blog is specified in some topic, then, you may want some target group to visit instead of people for fun. well, "comment" can fill this part. (oh, i have no comment so far)
all in all, the reasons for adding tracker, mostly base on the purpose of blogging.
4 vs 3, i decided not add a tracker.

Birthday Msg + cell phone provider
the idea is like this:
your cell phone service provider ask for your birthday.
they will send an msg on your birthday, to give you some discount or good stuffs.
also, they can make a network for you and your friends.
i think, they know which numbers you dial frequently (or you received frequently), by this mean, they know who is your friends.
and than, they can also send a msg to your friend, let them know today is your birthday.
over all, this is an added value of a service provider, which can charge you for money :D
