Pretender to be tough easily shifts to be weak

  Pretender to be tough easily shifts to be weak I know one pretender to be tough. The person shifted to be weak after he/she lost own bluff. I thought about the difference between real confidence and bluff. Real confidence stands by our sides, but bluff is put on own faces. Real confidence makes us stronger. Bluff can make us both of stronger and weaker. In other words, real confidence is asset, but bluff is risk. The result of bluff will be better or worse than without bluff. (I don’t like such risk, so that I try not to use bluff.) I thought about below matrix. Result With Real confidence Without Real confidence With Bluff Middle Risk and High Return  High Risk and Middle Return Without Bluff Low Risk and Middle Return Middle Risk and Low Return I don’t know this matrix is true, but not so far from true. Then I thought about another things, “Are there perfect method?” If I have real confidence and don’t use bluff, there ar...

Honda decided to lose their wings, and who will catch the feathers?

  Honda decided to lose their wings, and who will catch the feathers? I felt very uncool for Honda.  Honda, Nissan aim to merge by 2026 in historic pivot https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/honda-nissan-set-announce-launch-integration-talks-media-reports-say-2024-12-22/ Both of Honda and Nissan are losing China market car shares. In Japan, there are few companies which earn foreign currency. There are 2 company types in economy. High classed pieces and Pawns. High classed pieces earn foreign currency and Pawns are domestic companies. High classed pieces in Japan are losing their powers. They have earned from USA and China markets, but Chinese companies become their rivals. This indicates that China Pawns become to win Japan high classed pieces. In fact, if Japan high classed pieces lose USA markets, Japan won’t be able to earn foreign currency so that Japan gov will start to sell foreign assets(including US gov bonds). By the way, Honda will lose their wings ...

Why Mr.Carlos Ghosn was kicked out of Nissan

  Why Mr.Carlos Ghosn was kicked out of Nissan I saw this news interestingly. Renault open to Nissan pursuing merger talks with Honda, Bloomberg News reports https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/renault-open-nissan-pursuing-merger-talks-with-honda-bloomberg-news-reports-2024-12-18/ Mr.Carlos Ghosn might oppose to the merger with Honda and Nissan. Japan Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry(METI) wanted to eliminate him. So he was arrested by Japan police. This is the reason why Mr.Carlos Ghosn was kicked out of Nissan. This is Japan, and this is the Japan.

To use LiDAR or not, it is the problem…

  “To use LiDAR or not, it is the problem…” I remembered this news and thought something. Luminar says Tesla is biggest customer for its lidar sensors https://www.reuters.com/technology/luminar-says-tesla-is-biggest-customer-its-lidar-sensors-2024-05-07/ Tesla may not use LiDAR sensors for their cars. This will be large issue. Tesla’s software will be de facto standard on next electric car industry. If Tesla doesn’t use the data from LiDARs, the communications between Tesla cars and other cars will be difficult. Because the communications need common datas and protocols. For example, if Tesla cars don’t have the data from LiDARs, other cars have to follow it. I saw below news. 3 Japanese Carmakers Eye Joint Software Development; Toyota, Honda, Nissan See Benefits in Standardization https://japannews.yomiuri.co.jp/business/companies/20240516-186332/ Toyota, Honda, Nissan will use LiDAR sensors. The decision will suffer them because their cars can’t communicate wit...
