Fibre Channel Data Rate

Amazing how marketing can ignore the reality and math.

 

Fibre Channel Data rate is completely different than the name of each generation.

In the past, 4G FC was 4Gbps, 8G FC was also about 8Gbps.

So how come 16G FC data rate is actually 14.025, 32 FC is surprising 28.05

Refer to the image below which shows future FC technology which continues to ignore math and common sense.

Why not just call it 28G FC , or in the future 56 FC ?

Kindle Voyage

After many hesitations, I decided to upgrade to Kindle Voyage.

A very satisfied Kindle Whitepaper owner, the upgrade to voyage seemed expensive with few benefits.

But I guess my need for new Electronic devices has blinded my reason.

Anyway, I am VERY Happy with the device. Clearer, better, lighter. Currently have little usage for the frame page navigations, but I probably need to use it more.

Banana Yoshimoto’s “Kitchen”

Banana Yoshimoto’s “Kitchen” is probably the first Japanese book I read (in Hebrew).

Could not remember it very well, so decided to read it again, this time in Japanese.
While reading, I realise that I can’t remember it at all. Why is that ?

Like her writing style , but I am always surprised that there are still grammatical structures I struggle with.

->Then I opened my Kid’s Japanese text books and realised that I still have a lot to study.

There is very little information about Yoshimoto’s private life and I can imagine I can bump into here in a Cafe, not realising who it was.

 

 

 

Noam Sheffer

It is shocking to visit a dead Friend’s twitter page and see “I’m alive” in the profile.

蛇を踏む

A book by Kawakami Hiromi.

Trying to read but struggling, it is not about the language but I feel I am missing cultural knowledge.

 

Story managed to interest me and sweep me into a fantasy world, but I think there are some levels of complexity related to Buddhism which I don’t understand .

(Or maybe I am wrong and try to find meaning when there isn’t )

 

Amalie Emmy Noether

I love The Google Doodle. Especially when I study something new.

 

This time, it is about Amalie Emmy Noether , A mathematician which contributed to abstract Algebra theoretical physics.    Wikipedia mentions she was German and a Jew, but considering the fact she had to quit her university post due to the Nazi rules, I am not sure we can consider her German.

Inspiring story

On Religion, or is it hate/ignorance

Just received a comment on this blog, praising Hitler and stating that what ever he did was punishing the jews.

Is the writer Muslim?  I don’t know. I know he is using a comcast address in the Washington area.

Stating that 6 Million Jews were killed as punishment for a fictional story in one of the holy books makes me really sad.

(Rejected) Comment quote and screen capture below

He was dispensing the punishment that god had promised the jews for disrespecting him as seen in the quoran. Allah had promised to punish the jews for disreguarding his orders while moses went to get the 10 commandments
