Story
キメラという新しい会社を立ち上げてから、ここ数年ずっと距離を置いていた起業家や経営者の知り合いと、久しぶりに会う機会が増えました。LEANは、企業向けと個人向け、ふたつリリースする予定なので、企業向けの方は「こういうのをやろうと思っているんだけど、どうかな」と企業に相談をします。そうしたことも含めて、起業家や経営者と会う回数が少しずつ増えてきていて、なんだかうれしい。 変な話だけど、「戻ってきてくれてうれしい」「ビジネスの世界、ITの世界におかえり」みたいなことを言ってもらえたりもします。 同じフィールドでがんばっている彼らと話すと、やっぱり僕自身刺激になる。例えば、「メルカリ」をやっている山田進太郎くんとか、ドリコムの内藤裕くん。彼らはおおむね僕と同世代で、進太郎くんなんかは10年くらい前からの付き合い。彼は2回目の起業で、僕と似たような境遇なんです。一回会社を売って、メルカリを2年くらいで今の規模にした。すごいなぁ、負けてられないなぁと思います。(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
■1分の遅刻が許されない社会ってどうなの? 少し前、フェイスブックに「遅刻」について書いたんだけど反響がすごかった。 「詭弁じゃん」とコメントを書かれたりもしたし、書いた直後に次の日に約束し てた人から、「明日は大丈夫ですよね?」と確認のメールが来た(笑)。 僕はこんな風に書いた。 「遅刻は相手の時間を奪う卑劣な行為だ、なんてこと言う人いるけどよくわからないんですよ。相手の遅刻を怒るよりは、許せる人になりたいし、自分の遅刻も怒られるより は許される人になりたい。1時間遅刻出来る人は、他人の遅刻も許せる優しい人 になれるように思う。他人にも自分にも優しくなれる。」(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→ http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
最近、新しい会社で採用関係のプラットフォームを作る機会があって「働く」ということについてよく考えます。以前から言われていることだけど、今と将来とでは働き方がずいぶん変わると思う。 まず、僕らの仕事は確実に減っていくでしょう。移民の受け入れが活発になったらなおさら。人工知能についても最近話題ですよね。僕はロボットに仕事をさせるという発想も、ある程度は真実味があると思っています。エネルギー問題をクリアして、ロボットが農作物を作るようになれば、人の労働は各段に減る。テクノロジーの進化によって、将来は人々が今ほど働かなくても生きていける社会が実現するんじゃないかな、と。 その過渡期には、きっと適応できずにつらい思いをする人もいるでしょう。仕事がどんどんテクノロジーに奪われていき、失業する人も増える。そうした流れのなかで、一人ひとりが働き方を考え直さなきゃいけない日がいずれ来ると、僕は思っています。(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
ある読者の方から「人生の目的みたいなものってありますか?」という質問をいただいたので、お答えします。■生きている間に人生の目的なんてわかりようがない 僕、死ぬのが痛そうだし怖いから生きてるんですよね。目的みたいなものは持っていません。生きている意味なんていうのも探しませんね。そもそも、生きてる意味なんて死んだあとにしかわからないと思っています。たとえばゴッホは生前絵を描きたくて描いていたわけで、ゴッホが生きた意味というのは死んだあとに評価されてから見いだされた。そんな風に、死んだあとに誰かが意味をつけたりするから、生きている間に自分の人生の意味なんて、わかりようがないんです。(本文より)家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
事業がなくなるときはケースバイケースだけど、自然消滅パターンが一番多い。飽きちゃって力が入らなくなって、関わってきた人たちも僕のやる気の低下とともにモチベーション下がっていって終わり。自分が飽きるってことは世間も飽きてる可能性が高いと、僕はポジティブに考えてる。 あとは、採算の問題もある。これ以上ずるずるやっても最終的に損しかしないってことで、損切です。かつてやっていた飲食業の場合は、僕が最初に見誤った部分があって、すいぶん撤退した。内装に2000万円かけたけど、このまま経営していくと赤が増えていくだけだから、2000万円は捨てたと思って、閉じちゃいましょ。って感じでズバズバと……。 こういうのは潔くやらないといけないんだけど、僕は未練たらたらでした。やっぱりその店で働く人たちがいて、お客さんとして来てくれる人たちがいて、固定客も少しずつできてきたなかで、少なくともその瞬間はその人たちの居場所になっていたわけで。そこを閉じちゃうのはつらい決断でした。(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
僕はよく「逃げろ」と言います。 逃げていいんだよ、逃げちゃえばいいじゃんって。 僕のツイートをいつも読んでくれている人の中には、ある種の「弱さ」みたいなものを抱えている人が結構いて、そういう人たちにはとくにささるみたいで、すごく喜ばれるときがあります。 社会では強いことがよしとされるけど、弱い人にだっていいところはある。例えば、弱い人は弱い人にやさしくなれる。 ずっと強く生きてきた人たちは、弱さを知らないんですよね。だから「会社行きたくない」「学校行きたくない」と言うと「何言ってるんだ」「立ち向かえ」なんて怒ったり、励ましたりする。でも、弱さを抱えた人はそう言われても立ち向かえない。むしろ、ますます追いつめられたりすることもあるわけで。そういうことを、僕はいろんな子からのメールで日々、感じてます。「まわりからは『立ち向かえ』としか言われなかった。だから『逃げていい』って言われてホッとしました」っていう感謝メールを読んで、ああやっぱりそうなんだって。(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

■因果を求めない人工知能の世界 先日、人工知能に関する事業をしている人と合う機会がありました。 僕の会社が展開している採用系のサービスでも、人工知能などを用いることで、 マッチング部分でもっと手間を省いた方が絶対にいいと思っている。会社側がどういった人を求めているのか、応募者がどういった会社を望んでいるのかっていうことは、履歴書にたくさん文章を書けば伝わる問題でもないから。 もちろん最後は人間が面談することが必要なんだけど、その手前で機械ができる ことの精度を高められれば、可能性が広がるんじゃないかな。 例えばビッグデータやディープラーニング。これらは、今のトレンドといっちゃ あトレンドです。大量のデータを処理することで、あらゆることの確率が表で表 せるようになる。」(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→ http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

■空気のようなインターネット 2016年に『さよならインターネット まもなく消えるその「輪郭」について』という本を中央公論新社から出しました。インターネット論というほどのものではないけれど、これまでのインターネットと、これからのインターネットについて真面目に語ったもので、最近だとドワンゴの川上量生(かわかみ・のぶお)さんが出した『鈴木さんにも分かるネットの未来』(岩波書店)と、方向性は似ています。 発端は、僕が知り合いの編集者に、うちの会社にいる二十歳のインターンの子の話を、なにげなくしたことでした。 そのインターンの子は、こんなことを言っていました。 「家入さんはよくインターネットが大好きって言ってますけど、僕にはよくわか らないんです。なんだか、例えばハサミを好きって言ってるみたいで……」(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→ http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Story
「プログラミングは誰にでもできる」と、表向きには言ってます。事実、一定レベルまではそう。誰でも学習すれば、基本的なことはできるようになる。けれど厳密な意味では、プログラミングには人によって向き不向きがあると感じています。僕はスーパープログラマーではないけれど、それなりにITの世界にいて、たくさんの人を教えたり見てきたりしてきた結果、プログラマー的な思考回路というものが、なんとなくわかるようになりました。 プログラミングというのは「これをこうしたらこうなる」という原因と結果を書き続けていく作業。プログラミングに向いている人は、ひと言でいうと、ロジカルに物事を考えられる人です。 一方、論理的に思考できない人というのも一定数存在していて、そういう人はプログラミングに苦労する。バグったとき、なぜそうなったのか、一つひとつプログラムを逆算していけばわかるはずなのに、それをする発想がない。すると「これが、こうしたから、こうなった」と、原因と結果を直結させられないんだよね。(本文より) 家入一真 「家入学級」はこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/ieiri.html

Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go.

The Bobiverse is a different place in the aftermath of the Starfleet War, and the days of the Bobs gathering in one big happy moot are far behind. There’s anti-Bob sentiment on multiple planets, the Skippies playing with an AI time bomb, and multiple Bobs just wanting to get away from it all. But it all pales compared to what Icarus and Daedalus discover on their 26,000-year journey to the center of the galaxy.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College―Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.
