  1. English and me: mindisoutofcontrol.blogspot.com/2011/11/englis…
  2. Writing is an activity to assemble what you have read into brand new sentenses.
  3. It's fantastic I can send a tweet on the bed...
  4. Since I'm not good at typing with a mobile phone, comments from it tend to be very short. Inabilities change the essence of communication.
  5. It is impossible to concentrate when using a computer. There are too many things to do...
  6. アタックナンバーワンはルールがシンプルかつ公平で大逆転の可能性があるという点でゲームバランスがいいよな
  7. Big companies (like the one I work for) tend to be inefficient. I don't know which element of the inefficiency is essential and which is not
  8. It's not bad to be restricted by the poor interface of my cell phone. I choose words more carefully with this...
  9. Too many processes are running simultaneously: cleaning up my room, translating http://bit.ly/JkK1c and more...
  10. Language is an interface for interacting with outer worlds
  11. Programming style is strongly affected by the program language you use, no wonder thinking style is affected by your first language...
  12. @shioyama Hard work!
  13. striving to decrease the entropy of my room...
  14. The problem is, we often choose effortless expressions, and that's where the gaps between words and feelings come from.
  15. Any (commonly used) program language is turing complete. Likewise, any human language is equally expressive regardless of time and effort.
  16. Narrowing someone's possibility is quite easy. You just keep telling him or her trying something is new is a foolish thing. That's all.
  17. It shocked me that if we are taught from an early stage that's the way it is, we readily accept no matter how unreasonable that is.
  18. Finished "Never let me go" (Kazuo ishiguro). Despite the helpless situation, the course of the people's feeling is no different from us all.
  19. English requires details. Maybe that's where most of the differences come from.
