What are macroeconomics and microeconomics? Adding micro does not necessarily add up to macro by Nada 20231021

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. This time we will talk about macroeconomics. Economics. Yeah. Economics is also a subject that I have a lot of fondness for. When you think of economics, the first thing that comes to mind is balance or equilibrium theory. If demand increases, the price will increase. When supply increases, price decreases. That's an example of that. Economics consists of macroeconomics and microeconomics, and the field of micro-foundation of macroeconomics integrates these two seemingly contradictory academic fields. I'm trying to. In the end, this micro-foundation seems to be motivated by the desire to simulate market movements, and science is the study of ``prediction'' that ultimately results in something that simulates nature.

Now, let's talk about the relationship between macroeconomics and microeconomics. Brother? If someone says this to you, it might be a good idea to respond by saying that they're siblings who don't look alike at all.

First, what is economics? The main purpose of economics is to equitably distribute the earth's limited resources, such as metals and oil. Iron and oil are limited resources. In economics, everyone has things that cannot be obtained by everyone, such as air and water, but water is one of the few precious resources in desert areas. In economics, something that is rare and valuable is called scarcity. Markets exist to fairly distribute these scarce resources to many people.

In the market, goods are exchanged using currency, or money. In macroeconomics, the major players that exchange money are households, businesses, and governments. These three players use the causes of market economy movements, that is, movements in economic variables such as economic size, employment, prices, and interest rates. It is the responsibility of macroeconomics to study things related to the economy as a whole, such as inflation, economic growth rates, and booms and busts. In macroeconomics, the purpose of government policies related to the economy, that is, economic policies, is to stabilize price movements and economic growth rates.

Stabilizing means balancing, a state that is neither extremely good nor extremely bad. For example, the idea that the higher the economic growth rate is, the better it is because the number of wealthy people increases can be countered by saying that a high economic growth rate causes inflation and heats up the economy, making people's lives more unstable. In fact, as the economy grows and inflation occurs, the prices of goods and goods rise before wages, so some people may find their lives temporarily difficult.

In this way, macroeconomics deals with the economy as a whole, that is, the economy of a country. On the other hand, in microeconomics, individual players, such as a household or a company, are the subject of analysis. As for the market, according to general equilibrium theory, as I mentioned earlier, when the number of people who want something increases, that is, when the demand increases, the value of the item increases, and when the number of people who want something decreases, that is, when the demand decreases, the value of the item increases. value decreases.

In this way, if microeconomics is an individual discipline and macroeconomics is an overall discipline, then economics is divided into microeconomics and macroeconomics. In that case, the method of microeconomics, which looks at individual players as a whole, or macroeconomics, is called reductionism. The idea is that if you add each part together, you can see it as a whole.

Alternatively, there is a non-reductive theory that treats macroeconomics as macroeconomics and microeconomics as microeconomics, and treats each separately. The basis for this claim is, for example, the fallacy of composition.

The fallacy of composition refers to an economic phenomenon in which the actions of the individual and the actions of the whole are different. For example, if an individual tries hard to save, the amount they save may increase, but if people save as a whole, consumption will decrease, wages will decrease, and in the end, the amount saved will not increase.

In other words, there are parts of microeconomics and macroeconomics in which different economic laws (market principles) are at work, and I believe that the sum of microeconomics does not simply constitute macroeconomics. I also believe that microeconomics and macroeconomics involve different mechanisms, and I do not believe that simply adding up the players in microeconomics will result in the movement of macroeconomics as a whole.

This is Hotaru no Hikari. Readers who saw the article on physiology that I posted a while back may know that the idea of ​​looking at the whole as a collection of individuals is a general idea in science, just as it is in economics. I don't know. If you think about it normally, I think it is an obvious fact for everyone that the movement of individual brain cells and the function of the brain as a whole are different.

On top of that, just as physiology is said to be a discipline of integration, I believe that it is also the aspiration of economics to integrate microeconomics and macroeconomics. The challenge of modern economics, which is to provide a micro-foundation to macroeconomics, stems from this awareness of the problem.

I put too much emphasis on explaining things as a reflection on this article, and I lacked humor. I'm reflecting on this a little. Based on that, I would like to respond well to the next challenge. Thank you to everyone who read this article. I hope you have a good day today. See you soon.

virtual world and real world. Digital and objects If you want to take your blog from the virtual world to reality, let’s all go hiking by Nada 20231019

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. Virtual world. Yeah. It feels like something like fate. When I think of a virtual world, I imagine a completely cheat fantasy world. This is also true, but fantasy is a complete cheat and is the world of anime and manga. It's a golden land far away from the real world, with dragons and slimes. I want to say Is the virtual world really real?

In games and manga, it's natural, but in a virtual world, it doesn't have enough seasoning, which is frustrating. The incident that made this virtual world a hot topic was Bitcoin. Until now, the virtual world was the world on TV. When talking about Bitcoin, many people probably remember that there was an incident where a large amount of Bitcoin was stolen from an exchange. I was reminded of the medal dropping that I was obsessed with when I was a child, and Bitcoin's medal dropping seems to be extreme. After all, 1 Bitcoin is worth millions of yen. When it comes to games, I've been thinking a lot about whether there's a way to alchemize a large amount of game coins into the real world. It's a nostalgic summer memory. When it comes to game coins, I'm really interested in how many Yukichi-san can be exchanged for 1 gold.

Bitcoin is a jewel that came out of the virtual world called digital, but the virtual world is meant to be enjoyed, and until now it was not something that could be used to make a profit. However, I feel that the boundaries between reality and virtual worlds such as Bitcoin and the Metaverse are disappearing these days. If this blog is also a virtual world in the digital sense, if bloggers go to a BBQ together, the real world and virtual world will be linked. As an extension of this, advertising can also be considered a kind of virtual world.

Products are introduced through advertisements, but advertisements are information that cannot be touched. Of course, some people may point out that you can touch flyers with your hands, but there is no big difference between online advertisements and paper flyers, as they are essentially data. On top of that, the magic trick of pulling a radish out of a 100 yen radish flyer is still impossible.

Returning to the topic of blogs, it is up to the blog owner to link their cherished blogs with the real world. A virtual world called anonymous is not necessarily a good thing. Showing your face, exposing your name, and picking up fans becomes your entrance to the real world. In that sense, the virtual world we are talking about here is not a fantasy world, but a digital world.

This is Hotaru no Hikari. The virtual world means that it is linked to the real world, and it is a collaboration of data and objects. However, it is up to you to decide whether to weight that link closer to the virtual world or to the real world. If the virtual world isn't enough for you to have fun, why not set up a place and go hiking with your fans and readers? Of course, it might be polite for you to prepare the BBQ set yourself. I hope it goes well. See you soon.

I said that if you sleep on a hard carpeted floor, you can wake up comfortably within 5 or 6 hours by Nada 20231019

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. I basically slept in bed during the summer. I felt comfortable sleeping on the bed, so I was able to sleep for a long time. However, it was difficult to wake up, and it was common for me to go back to sleep twice or three times. I think a bed is a comfortable item for resting. Beds don't take up much space in the room and you can store things underneath. On the other hand, in Japan, we have something called a kotatsu, and during kotatsu season, I always sleep in a kotatsu on the carpeted floor. Sleeping on the floor isn't as comfortable as a bed, but it can feel a little hard when you lie down.

The reason why I sleep on the floor instead of in bed is because I wake up more easily. If I don't have an alarm in bed, I can easily sleep for 12 hours. However, if you sleep on the carpet for 5 or 6 hours with a futon over your head, you will wake up feeling refreshed. However, there is surprisingly no discomfort due to the hardness of the floor. One of the key points of sleeping on the floor is that you can wake up comfortably within those 5 or 6 hours. Probably, if you sleep soundly, you won't sleep twice or three times. If it's kotatsu season, you can also sleep with the kotatsu on. By the way, if I sleep in my kotatsu with the power on, I'll wake up within 2-3 hours. I think the good thing about it is that you can wake up refreshed, whether it's at a kotatsu or on the floor. When you wake up, you can have a pleasant morning by drinking a cup of coffee that you prepared before going to bed. I sleep on my bed in the summer, but in the winter I sleep on the floor with a kotatsu. I think it depends on each person which one is better, so try both. I'm sure you'll be surprised at the difference. See you soon.

Oh, that was long. Tired of writing. The weirdo's obsession is comparable to a giant diamond by Nada 20231015

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. I would like to be the first to complain that there are too many weirdos in this world who don't understand their own market value. There are various genres of weirdos that can be grouped together as weirdos. A strange man runs through the cold winter sky in shorts. Also, some weirdos avidly read up on true scary stories. Fortunately, I'm one of the latter weirdos, or occult enthusiasts, but don't worry, I don't go to rendezvous in winter wearing only shorts.

In today's world, there are some strange people roaming the streets, but on the other hand, there are also many good, "ordinary" citizens. I want to say something to this occult maniac. yes! The world is truly a very crowded age. I'm digressing to an unrelated topic here, but I would like to ask you a sharp question: Do you still believe in ghosts in this age of science?

Then the occult maniac will say, Once you have a mystical experience that can be called a miracle, you may come to believe in the occult. That's God's Mikoto, I thought. If you know that many successful business owners pray to the gods at shrines, you may think that it is okay to pray to the gods. However, if you are a sane business owner, your wish is not for the safety and growth of your company, but just to prevent black lumps from running around the gas room in the summer.

Just then, I heard an employee's voice coming from the fuel room. Hey everyone, tea is ready. I took a sip, felt satisfied, and went back to work. There were also sweets available, so I decided to take it easy today and try to work on my diet tomorrow.

Although I was wearing a mask of sociability, I skipped the morning's business, but I made a firm promise to leave the hot topic of tea alone. However, I am worried. The season for black lumps is over. It's autumn.

In this way, I always get a unique position. He calmly handles tasks that are extremely life-threatening, such as serving tea, and is aiming for the manager's chair. This is how people around me evaluate me. "I'm good at my job, but my quirky side makes for a great soup stock."

On top of being a weirdo, there is a price to be paid if you try to be liked by others. This is a must-have item, but when I go on a trip, I ask my employees if they want a Tokyo Tower figurine or a deer figurine. You may be confused, but which one to allocate depends on your taste. In other words, you need to bring a gift to your partner.

Also, weirdos sometimes have unusual ability values. The combat value measured by the smart glasses becomes unmeasurable, and there is a risk of malfunction, so the security guard will stop you. For example, there are some weirdos who play games with all their heart and soul, but they are more like nerds than weirdos, and they always seem to protect themselves by arming themselves with the topic of gaming.

I heard that wearing fox masks seems to be a fad in the weirdo world, and they're selling like hot cakes at textile stores. In the weirdo world, there is a tacit understanding that wearing a mask is good etiquette, and it seems that there are many people who feel small-minded about it.

It's getting a little long here, so I'd like to force Hotaru no Hikari to play. ♫Hotaru's light...

Knowing what many weirdos are aiming for can provide clues to their ecology. Many weirdos aspire to be normal. It can be assumed that there are many eccentric people who want to go to the normal side, even though their ``obsession'', which used to be a disadvantage, will bloom if they are passionate about it. This probably has a lot to do with social pressure.

A weirdo's obsession is a necessary condition to reign over ordinary people, but many weirdos probably don't realize its value. I will continue to work hard so that I can be passionate about something and be inducted into the Hall of Fame as the King of Weirdos. Everyone please take care of yourself. Please practice as hard as you can to become the leading role of the next era. I support you behind the scenes. See you soon.

Physiology is one of the basic medical sciences. I study medicine because I want to find new treatments by Nada 20231019

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. I think it would be great if everyone could start learning about medical physiology from here.

In addition to physiology, medicine includes basic medical sciences such as anatomy and biochemistry. Physiology is the science that explains how the human body works. Anatomy, on the other hand, understands the structure of the body, and biochemistry studies the physical underpinnings of the body. In biochemistry, a state of no change is an important concept, and one of these concepts is "homeostasis." This is a combination of two words: ``similar homeo'' and ``stasis.'' In other words, it is in a similar state of stasis, that is, without change. I also don't quite understand what "similar" refers to here, so I would like to study this as one of my future tasks.

Physiology is known as the science of "integration." One way of thinking in physiology is to analyze biological functions one by one at the cellular and molecular level. Of course, even if we can understand the movements of individual cells, we still need to be able to analyze the entire tissue, such as the integrated system of the brain. This is ``See the forest, not the trees!'' and refers to the fact that individual cells and the whole organ function differently.

Another concept in biology is feedback. If we are office workers and are doing our jobs, feedback means our boss's evaluation of our work. your boss will say. "You're an excellent person, but it's unfortunate that you're so biased. Something simple is more valuable than something complicated."

The biological feedback referred to here can be said to be negative feedback that returns an abnormal value to a normal value, and positive feedback that raises an abnormal value to an even more abnormal value. There must be a reason why the outliers are getting bigger and bigger. This raises the question of whether the body is really providing negative feedback that increases abnormal values ​​even further. By testing flasks in a laboratory, it is possible that something that would never occur in the body may occur. This is also a point to be careful about whether the system is really the same as the system that occurs in the body.

There are also methodologies such as "experiment", which analyzes the phenomena that occur during the process from normal values ​​to abnormal values, and "observation", which involves collective group analysis, such as comparison with a normal system or comparison based on the environment. Here, I would like to propose a method for finding commonalities between patients with the same symptoms.

In this way, as an introduction to physiology, I think it is correct to think about methodology. I want to say I wonder if I would want to study a difficult and difficult technical book if it came with a guide that anyone could understand. It would be great if I could explain the knowledge I learned in physiology in an easy-to-understand manner, but studying requires a purpose. I can introduce you to the specialized books I used as reference, but I have no intention of becoming a doctor, but if you want to know what kind of medical knowledge, that is, the knowledge of what you learn in medical school, I will be at the door. I would like to be the person in charge of receiving tickets.

Why is studying necessary? This is because when you have a chance to stand in a place where that knowledge is required, you will be at the bare minimum. If you were to ask me why I study medicine, I would humbly answer that it is because I want to create new treatments. See you soon.

Playing managers are required to have field skills as a player and coordination skills as a manager!? by Nada 20231015

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. Today I would like to talk about our beloved playing manager.

Some of our readers may be students or working adults, but if you are a working reader, if you say "player," they will say, "Oh, I'm one of those players, too. As one of the cogs in the company's wheel," I'm sure some of you are saying, "Ah, you, lady?"

Here, "player" is a general term for employees who are active at the site where an incident is occurring. Speaking of the field, we are the closest to the field, where we have contact with customers and company personnel, and we are in a sensitive position where we can easily sense changes in the field. I don't know if it's the same these days, but we get along well with each other, letting the ball fly and saying nice shots while giving each other a shoulder to dodge. In other words, the workplace can be said to be the core of a company.

Of course, the workplace is not only a demonic palace for a group of artists who mass produce works called work. There is also a position called a manager who oversees these artists.

Is it possible to compete 24 hours a day in modern times with passionate artists? Don't ask me that. This is absolutely taboo. If you were to then say to them, ``From today onwards, I am your boss. Please follow my boss's words, as they are absolute.'' That manager would end up covered in paint.

Or, if you say, ``Oh, this is what I asked you to do, please finish it by tomorrow in the wildest way possible,'' then there's no guarantee that someone will come up with an outrageous mechanical weapon.

In other words, both micro-management, which constrains subordinates, and laissez-faire, which gives subordinates freedom, are disqualifying as managers, and excellent playing managers must be able to give accurate instructions to their subordinates and use the magic to liven up the group, or else they will not be qualified as a manager. It's not enough.

In the end, the conclusion is that playing managers are promoted to managerial positions because they are excellent players, and as a manager, communication skills are required.

This is Hotaru no Hikari. In order to motivate our subordinates, we must show them love and respect, rather than chanting sutras or chanting Buddhist prayers. If you become a boss who believes in your subordinates and takes responsibility for them, promotions will naturally open up to you. Long live the playing manager! ! See you soon.

Why blog now? In a world where video is all the rage, if you look back at the past, you'll find that a blue ocean has spread. by Nada 20231014

Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. Why do you use SNS, including blogs? Some people may be planning to conquer the world through blogs and SNS. Like the secret society SZS. I will continue to blog today as much as possible to become a blog fixer.

I also run a sister site called Seito Shijuku, but I've left it alone, but since it has a decent amount of articles, I've rewritten it and ported it to this blog, Seito Shijuku. I think so.

First of all, it's a theory, but you might run into someone called Rewrite in your dreamland. Do you want to hear that in this situation? I understand that you want to make a sharp comment, but please leave it to me to explain and just stand in the long line and get a spot.

Well, rewriting is the act of rewriting a previously written article in a smart and elegant way, and basically the article should be better than the previous one. When I run out of material for this blog, I'm thinking of starting a self-sufficient farming life by taking seeds from Shijuku and rewriting them.

I'm going to rewrite Shijuku, but since there are some parts where I've been throwing random ideas over and over again, I'd like to take only the good keywords from the previous article and start building Togenkyo. By the way, the budget is about 100 trillion yen.

Of course, Togenkyo is made of reinforced concrete with gold plating, so it is strong against earthquakes, but it also has the disadvantage of being weak against erosion. Please set the expected value as a hurdle at a level that kindergarteners can jump.

In this blog, I feel that it is difficult to monetize through affiliate marketing. Of course, I had to build a new blog several times, build it up, and then tear it down, so if I had continued with my sister site, Shijuku, which I started in 2019, I might have been a bit blown away by now.

Although this blog is written in Japanese, it can be said that there are readers all over the world. If you use Chrome as your browser, you can right-click to translate the page, and if you put a note at the beginning of your blog to translate it in the common language English, anyone who uses a computer can translate my blog. I wouldn't say it's difficult to read. In the end, what I can say in native Japanese is more important than being able to speak English or Chinese.

Based on my experience, I can say that monetizing blogs and SNS requires patience. I think you need something like the determination to keep posting a decent amount of articles every day for years without getting paid. In my case, I think I fell into a vicious cycle where if I didn't make as much progress as I had hoped after just a short period of time, I would get fed up and quit.

Now, speaking from my experience, so to speak, it's subjective, but I'm probably not suited for a job like an office worker. Even if a work order comes to me saying, ``Nada, go to the convenience store and buy some taiyaki-kun,'' I don't like being told what to do, so I might just go ahead and buy some Baby Star Ramen. It's a story that gives me chills just thinking about it. That being said, in order to attract customers, a mascot-like character like a monochrome bear at a zoo is necessary.

It's strange that I'm writing a blog because I think videos are becoming obsolete these days. Of course, this miraculous experience may be able to return to the real world by posting videos for each article on this site. Simply adding explanatory videos to your blog will enrich your content and make it more exciting.

If I become a nerd and upload a certain famous anime to get viewership ratings, please let me know before reporting. I think I've seen that episode before. You can't attract customers with a blog unless you're a strategist. Unless there is a secret story that is really interesting, the number of people who want to read it will be limited.

This is Hotaru no Hikari. When someone watches or listens to some content, they are dominated by that content. This means that you cannot consume other content at the same time. In this kind of content business, profits are generated based on how much of an unspecified person's time can be monopolized. This is probably due to the affinity between content business and advertising revenue.

In the future, more content businesses may gain revenue sources other than advertising revenue. Which media will win then? I'm looking forward to it. Chan-chan. See you soon.
