Typing speed is mandatory to be good in programming or system jobs.
I am not good in programming, but this is what I found about advices in the net:

+concentration is essential for programming.

+prolonged period to keep practicing


+start journey with relative simple language, learn the basic, don't master it. Go for language to understand memory management,garbage collection and fundamental concepts. Then, it's time to master a language.


+learn programming to prove that you can establish it.


+start a small project and you will learn from it during the process.

Corona Virus Outbreak : Japan cruise ship virus cases jump to 218 as elderly offered escape

YOKOHAMA, Japan (AFP): Japan said Thursday it would allow some elderly passengers off a quarantined cruise ship and into government-designated lodging, as the number of new coronavirus cases on the vessel jumped to 218.

Thousands of passengers and crew on the Diamond Princess -- the single largest cluster of infected people outside China -- face several days more of quarantine, with many taking to social media to voice their concerns.

Those working on the ship have been reluctant to speak to reporters for fear of losing their jobs, but two crew members broke their silence in a video broadcast by Indian media Thursday.

"We are scared that if the infection is spreading, it is spreading so fast that we could also become affected," said Sonali Thakkar, a ship security officer.

"We don't want to (become sick). We just want to go back home," she said in the clip broadcast by NDTV.

With passengers mostly confined to their cabins, crew members have to go door-to-door to deliver food and other supplies, and some fear this has reduced the effectiveness of the quarantine.

Health Minister Katsunobu Kato said Thursday there were 44 new cases -- including one crew member -- an additional 221 tests.

He said also that some elderly passengers would be allowed off the ship if they test negative for the Covid-19 virus.

Those who opt to leave will be moved to government facilities to wait out a quarantine that is set to last until Feb 19.

"If they test negative, those who wish to disembark can go and live in a lodging facility that the government will prepare," Kato said.

Captain Stefano Ravera informed the passengers of the new plan via ship broadcast.

"The Ministry of Health has already tested guests 80 years or older who are staying in a cabin without a balcony, and those 80 years or older with chronic medical conditions," he said.

Kato said five people from the ship were in serious condition in hospital -- four who have tested positive for the virus. Test results for the fifth are still being processed.

With dozens of new cases diagnosed almost daily, questions have been raised about the pace of testing and whether the quarantine is working.

Japan initially tested around 300 people who had close contact with the first infected passenger, or have displayed symptoms, but they have gradually widened the net as new cases were detected.

Officials saying they can only process 300 people a day, but hope eventually to expand this to 1,000.

In addition to the cases on the ship, Japan has confirmed 28 other infections -- mostly among evacuees from Hubei, where the virus emerged.

Four flights have brought back hundreds of people, most of whom are undergoing "self-quarantine" in government-designated hotels.

Evacuees from the first flight, which landed on Jan 29, were cleared to leave the quarantine on Wednesday night after passing a final round of checks.

As they left their hotel in Chiba, east of Tokyo, they thanked local residents for their solidarity. - AFP

元氣 和 日本忙人 的 角力戰!


【げんき2】比較適合日檢初級二考試。【Japanese for busy people 2】不適合日檢,而且據說讀到第三冊才有N4資格,詞彙/漢字也不比有【元氣】的書多,第二冊的文法又解釋不清楚。我沒有CD,因為老師是複印書給我們的。近七十歲的老師已經沒有跟進日檢好一段日子了。我去上他的課只有三次,就畢業了。無論如何,感謝他複印【げんき1】給我,雖然給我這本書,讓他很不爽,畢竟我是插班生,上課又遲到。上他的課是我的壓力,因為隨時會問問題,查我的課本,筆記,也會借機罵人,罵學校。我時常都不知他在教什麽,每次回家都大力複習,但沒有什麽進步,是我程度差,還是老師有問題?我上的是日語中級課,但他說書上的內容只有N4和N5的水平,而且還要多給一本有關詞彙應用的書,書名是什麽?不知道。我老師還在想要給我們什麽書。【Japanese for busy people 2】就等我考完日檢后,再說吧!還剩四個月就是日檢了。 最擔心的是日語聽力了。如果不行,12月再考。 げんき2 Textbook RM163.54 扣 RM5優惠 => RM158.54 (如果不買,就看PDF吧!)
