My Diaries

(December 2019)

 
Starting from December 2019, I will write my diaries in Google, and stop those in Wordpress, because of its forced advertisement in my blog posts.
 
 

December 29

I was busy the last 2 weeks or so, therefore I did not publish any diary these days. Even in the future, when there is nothing important, I will also not write and post my diaries.

 

Mother memorials:

Reading of various novels of Chinese, English and French and perhaps German too, in addition to the improvement of my language skills in these languages themselves.

 

Chinese:

Suspended.

 

English:

IT Infrastructure

In order to download big software (in scale of GB for most IC design software), I need to find out a way to download big file from web drives of baidu.com, but until now there is no solution.

 

Social contacts

This morning my younger sister came to me unexpectedly, bringing me some money and fruits. She told me that the Chinese spring holiday is alreay near, less than a month away. I didn't realize that and thought instean it is at least 2 months away. This year the Chinese new year arrices earlier than before.

Miscellaneous Issues

I've explored how to design dropdown menus quickly and visually without the need to use other's codes, because it is very difficult to adopt to my site conditions. There are too many manual changes to the codes, and many times it is impossible to find out how to modify the codes to reflect my needs.

Several options exit to improve the dropdown menu design:

1) use an uptodate dreamweaver version. I've downloaded and tried one or two, not yet satisfactory. Will try again.

2) use the existing methods of my dreamweaver CS6 version, namely:

a. spry module b) layers and ap div.

3) using dw plugings, but they are not easy to find.

4) using independent dropdown menu software, but their functions are limited, at least the free or trial version.

Miscellaneous Issues

 

IT Infrastructure

Circumventing tools: 1) I have again recovered some of the malfunctioning anti-censorship tools such as lantern, ultrasurf, psiphon, but not all are working since the Chinee great firewall have blocked them. I would not try to set up more toos on my only one vps server, because I have already installed several of them incl ssr, v2ray, pipesocks, brook etc. Of course if I buy an additional vps, I will try all other tools on the list, but now let me rest a couple of months, for I have enough tools in standby. There is no reasons to spend time and efforts there.

Miscellaneous Issues

 

IT Infrastructure

Circumventing tools: 1) successfully installed and run pipesocks 2) solved https viewing problem on the nginx webserver for the website angeliamodem.tk, but unable to figure out why it redirects to a directory hosted on apache webserver when using https alone without the special ssl port of 8443 I set for nginx to use, why apache recognizes the ssl certificates when there is nothing configured for these certificates on apache. Possibly apache can share configurations data with nginx automaticaly? No idea. Can't find a solution from the Internet.

Successfully installed and run geph proxy tool.

IT Infrastructure

Installed gfw.press but it did not work. Try to fix the problem today together with v2ray's remaining problem: the ngingx server does not direct the main page of the angeliamodem.tk to the correct directory I set in the configuration file of nginx, instead it shows the index.html page of the angelia.space site hosted under apache webserver, strange and ununderstandable. Problems remain open.

Daily life

This morning I've ridden to the nearby town of Donglin to buy vegetables, chicken, eggs, and something else otherwise I will have nothing to cook for food.

 
 

December 2

My diaries will be regularly updated according to my day to day activities. They will be divided into the following parts:

 

Mother memorials:

In order to honor my mother I will write a biography of hers, possibly some poems or other essays which will then be used to compose a music piece for my mother, and finally a movie that will also be derived from her biography or her poems and other essays.

For that reasons I will continue with my reading of various novels of Chinese, English and French and perhaps German too, in addition to the improvement of my language skills in these languages themselves.

Current reading status:

 

Chinese:

At the monent I am reading the following:

<红楼梦> Red Mansion:

Chapter 83

This is perhaps the 3rd time of my reading. My first time was more than 30 years ago, and quite difficult to understand, and today easier, but still unable to grasp all its contents and meaning. This novel, perhaps the greatest in human history, involves all best chinese ancient literature and culture. With a solid background of Chines culture and literature, one has difficulty to really enjoy its beauty.

<红楼梦典藏版套装共8册> 8 volums of the Red Mansion Notes

A 3000 page lecture notes by a well known researcher on Red Mansion from Taiwan.

Current status: page 955

Movies of Red Mansion:

To understand Chinese literature and culture more, I shall watch some of the best movies of Red Mansions. The first was shot in about the 1920's and upto now there are many dozens of versions of its movies in all sorts of forms, TV shows, local dramas and so on.

Occassionally I shall also watch other movies which teach people about Chinese culture.

In addition I will also visit some websites dedicated to Red Mansion in order to get more information about this great novel.

 

English:

Current reading:

James: The Portrait of a Lady p397

Page 218

Also watching videos on Youtube and other media, in order to keep my listening at the right level.

 

French:

Reading:

Dumas: LES TROIS MOUSQUETAIRES p914

Page 368

Also reading and listening practices in various websites incl https://www.ximalaya.com, possibly to prepare for a test pretty soon. Of course also watching some youtube videos to enjoy French speaking.

 

走遍法国1下 Reflets II

 

 

German:

At the moment I have suspended its reading, but only occassionally watching some youtube videos. I have not yet decided whether or not to stop German at all.

 

Of course language and literature reading and learning and practice is not only for the purpose of writing a bio and other essays for mother, but also for my research and studies, business and general communications with those people in contact with me.

 

Music piece for mother:

I will compose a musica piece for my mother after studying, listening and playing all the best music pieces concerning mothers and other melancholical issues. For that purpose I have been studying music theory, and later I will resume my playing of a music instrument, possibly a violin, and listening to the best music pieces available on the Internet - all of them, from the ancient time to the modern day, from China to all parts of the world. I plan to first compose a violin solo, then a duo with a piano, and a concerto with more instruments, and in the end all the best instruments from all nations, and singers will also join in the greatest symphony in the history to honor my mother and all mothers of human kinds. That will take long time to accomplish.

At the moment however, I can only have to chance to listen to some of the best music piece to gain some very first feeling of how they might sound like, and gradually I will form my own melody, and then if my situation is good enough, I will spend my entire energy on the composition of such a song or music.

 

Everyting about Mother

Poems,

Essays,

Novels.

Movies

Websites

I've in the earlier days completed the reviews of some of the most important poems, essays, novels, movies and websites exclusively dedicated to mother and mother memory, therefore right now I am now spending much time on them.

 

Research & Studies

After years of adjustment my mission is clearly fixed, that is to become an expert on IC design, particularly ICs for satellite communications and broadband, especially the modulations and demodulations technologies.

My 2nd priority is of course the above mentioned languages and literature, and

My 3rd priority is music composition.

I will describe something about the first priority because the 2nd and 3rd are already mentioned above.

The IC research are composed of 3 parts, namely:

General IC design technologies:

My current reading is

Kaeslin: Digital Integrated Circuit Design From VLSI Architectures to CMOS Fabrication p879

Page 183, Chapter 4, Modelling Hardware with VHDL, 4.2 KEY CONCEPTS AND CONSTRUCTS OF VHDL

Of course I've read hundreds of books and thaousands of papers in these and other subjects before. But I still need to keep reading on order to keep my knowledge updated. Unfortunately I cannot find the very recent books in IC design on the Internet.

General Wireless and Satellite Communications, incl modulation abd demodulation

Frenzel: Principles of Electronic Communication Systems 2016 p945

Reading page 156, this is my 2nd time reading this book.

Chapter 5 Fundamentals of Frequency Modulation, 5-3 Modulation Index and Sidebands

Likewise I have read many books and papers in this area also before.

Design of Modulation and Demodulation ICs for Satellite Broadband

Gaudenzi2005: Turbo-Coded APSK Modulations Design for Satellite Broadband Communications p31

finished.

 

Business

My business activities will center around 3 areas - they are now all in coincidence with my academic plans:

 

IC technologies, incl. design and consulting.

I mainly promote this business via industrial platforms. In earlier years I have tried to send large amount of emails to potential clients, but it proved useless and even damaging.

Today I have again searched the Internet and found several sites in the area where I can promote my business. However, only a few can be really registered such as these:

https://en.wikipedia.org/

https://www.electronicsurplus.com/

https://www.mathworks.com/

http://www.vlsi.fi/

And even these sites cannot give me enough functionalities to promote my business and studies.

 

Satellite broadband business

I promote this busiess mainly through my website of http://www.angelia.space/. It has a daily visits of about 1000 to 3000, enough to attract certain clients. But the website needs to be improved in order to show my clients how worthwhile my services are. Currently these types of services are promoted on this website:

Modem IC design

Satellite broadband operational service consulting

IC marketing consulting

China Satellite Broadband Monthly Report

 

Localization and globalization of websites, software, databases, multimedia and others

Because textul translation is too cheap, therefore I can only undertake those projects which are a combination of language and IT expertise, for those who are good at languages are not necessarily good at IT, and vice versa.

 

Miscelleneous Issues

 

IT Infrastructure

Over the last days I have been trying to set up my own v2ray proxy server, because I need one such proxy for emergency use. Under normal conditions the free nodes available on the Internet can serve my purpose to unblock the great firewall, but in case all of them are blocked I need my own way out. I have one own ssr already but I need more. Finally today I succeeded in setting one, but there are still unsolved issues with the webservers. I have installed 2 servers - apache and nginx, but all incoming traffic seems to go to apache. I have to work out a way still.

Social contacts

I live quite alone, have little contacts with the outside world. But yesterday afteroon my high school mate came to me and picked me up to a restaurant in a nearby town to have a dinner, together with another 3 classmates, Yang XF, Chen JZ and Shen ???. Coming back home it was 9:00 eveing and I was unable to sleep last night, perhaps because of the strong tee or too much talking. Whenever I am talking too much in the evening, I cannot sleep well, therefore I could not get up at the regular hour this morning and was unable to go to this same town to buy food and daily necessaties.

Last night just before turning off my computer I've received a message from a Thailand American, therefore I have to answer him instantly, postponing my bedtime. He came across to me via a penpal site where I have registered months ago. But today he sent me a message saying that "a correspondence between us would not be fruitful for either of us at this time.", therefore I will not continue with his acquaintence.

 

Sports

Today I have no time to go jogging.

 

Afternoon snap

Today I have no time for a petit sleep afternoon.
