An Algorithm to find who to invite to your Event!

The criterion for including people for an all-paid Dinner Party, for instance, should at the very minimum be the people whom I can call and I am sure who will pick up the phone. This then by definition includes almost all, nah, all of my male friends and excludes most of the, if not all, ex-girls I have dated before. Then there is the proximity of location constraint. Plus, inclusion of anyone who invited me to their past celebrations and I know who maybe able to join for this one. Or somebody with whom I was close either in proximity of location or friendship or both or with whom I spent a lot of time together. Now, on top of these, in order to reduce the list to the most closest of the close current friends, I can impose the following additional requirements:


1) Should have met them atleast once this year or in the past 6 months, whichever is longest.

2) We should have had atleast one 1-1 meeting, preferably outing for >1 hour, either for lunch, coffee or dinner or something else.

3) People with whom I enjoyed some unique experience are automatically prioritized.

4) Girls are always preferred for inclusion in parties.

5) There should be atleast some minimal non-effort-requiring prospect of meeting again in the next six months.

6) How likely are they to actually join the party? Do they have a history of last-minute cancellations? Will they be able to allocate sufficient time on the designated date and time? Have they proven anytime in the past that they are capable of doing this for you?

7) If they have helped you in some way recently, going back to the past six months, (or earlier, if it was something really crucial), then they are prioritized. However, in this case, I would already have been keeping in touch with them, so they would already have been included by one of the criterion above.

8) How important will their inclusion in the party be for you?

9) Are they really attractive? Then I should atleast ask them out!

10) How many of them are likely to know how many of the others invited??


This then can comprise an Algorithm for selecting who to invite to your parties and events, if there's any limitation on the number of participants there can be, and we wish to find the minimum number of closest friends to send invitations. Also, if the women are the majority participants, that reduces the overall cost too,  because they eat less, haha~

Tokyo House Hunting Guide

First of all, I am glad to know that you have decided to find a relatively long-term accommodation space in Tokyo. It’s a marvelous city and I hope you will have a fantastic time living here ~ The ideal procedure would be to lookup apartments in your desired area on these websites and then go an agency. Most apartments won’t be furnished and will have the initial surcharges and key deposit money, ~one month’s rent. The agency I used for my apartment is ABLE, and I would highly recommend it. I have a contact at ABLE Hakusan, so if you are looking for housing in Bunkyo-ku, near the universities, ping me up and I may perhaps be able to get you a bit of a discount, haha ;) Some relevant links are, https://suumo.jp/sp/ : This is the largest real-estate website in Japan, with the most number of properties listed. Most of the information is in Japanese though. https://minimini.jp/sp/ : The second most popular real-estate website in the country. Suumo is Green, while MiniMini is Red. Both of...

एक पत्र सकुरा के नाम

ऐसा हो ही नहीं सकता कि आप टोक्यो में हो और दो महीने पहले से आपकी सारी दिनचर्या तय हो गई हो, आपके ना जाने के सिर्फ़ दो करण हो सकते हैं, एक : आपको जाने की इच्छा नहीं है (संभवतः यह), या फिर दो : आप उस दिन टोक्यो में नहीं हो। आप जापानी लोगों की इस प्रकार की आदतें हमें बिलकुल भी पसंद नहीं है। दुनिया में कुछ ही चुनिंदा लोग होंगे जो हमसे ज़्यादा काम करते होंगे, क्योंकि सभी के पास बराबर का वक़्त है, २४ घंटे। तो अगर साथ चलने की इच्छा है और उस एक लौते दिन या समय इत्यादि की ही दिक़्क़त है, तो फिर ज़ाहिर है साथ मिलकर उसे सुलझाया जा सकता है। यूँ संचिप्त में बेमतलब का उत्तर देना बेहद ही अपमानजनक है। यह हमारी नज़रों में आप जापानीयों की अधूरी परवरिशों का भी सूचक है, जहां आपको यह तो सिखाया जाता है कि बाहरी सुंदरता और गोरा रंग कैसे लाए, मगर इस पर ज़ोर दिया जाता कि दोस्त कैसे बनाए और दोस्ती किसे निभाए। आधुनिक जापानी समाज के अंदरूनी खोखलेपन और इसकी दरारों से सीप रहीं अकेलापन और मानसिक तकलीफ़ों के एहसासों की जड़े शायद यही ग़ैर समाजीपन होना है। चिरंचे, हाल ही में हमारे कम से कम तीन जापानी दोस्तों और परिचित...
