We urgently need big companies tax cuts in Austria to ensure millenium growth again

The tragedy of ATX


ATX is now currently 75% at the level of 2007 peek, before financial crisis 2008 (Lehman brothers bankruptcy and subprime mortage crisis).


After the Golden Millennium 2000 until 2007 there was streight growth,
were all big companies had full order books and were hired a lot!

Since of that growth after the golden millennium in Austria, many of my friends, acquaintances or ex-colleagues had good jobs at industry sector.
Later they were sometimes labeled as too unqualified, while they had a lot of working expirience in tech sector at big tech companies.

I can explain, why they were getting so easy jobs at the era of golden millennium:

All tech companies in Austria growed a lot during this era, had a full order situation and a lot of different projects for many different customers in queue,

Many experts within the tech companies were overworked and came no longer came to work on the projects and issues, where their expert know-how was absolutely necessary and also brought the necessary innovation and added share holder value.

So the tech companies hired people to do the less productive, but currently constantly needed business and administrative work, often the exchanges with smaller partners or customers.

After the financial crisis in 2008, almost all large Austrian stock market companies never came up at the level of golden millenium era again. They had only a few new orders and no more the budget for bigger innovations without great US or Chinese tech partners oversea. Their cash flow came from old contracts and day-to-day business.

There was never again such a good growth phase as during the times of the golden millennium and the companies were only looking for highly qualified experts on an individual basis, but did not have to hire anyone due to too many orders and constant growth.

Misunderstandings arose because many people now noticed mistakes made by some of my friends and me, that I was never actually at the level of a top MIT or university of Berkeley california graduate or as good as tom@ibm.com or mike@google.com former at rainbow.

When I look at the case studies from the operating system exercise from 1995 and compare my work with that of Tom and Mike, it was clear for me and everyone else, that I (and many other people don't get at the unix OS Olymp) but at least I created some ghosts on walls. I don't envy Tom & Mike their talent or their hard work, but to say after 2 crises and 1 divorce, that I now have to reach Tom or Mike's level is very ridiculous of some people.

At least, improving advanced encryption standard with simple matrices and my currently project as one man company were very fine for the moment, and nobody needs everywhere the greatest top MIT experts for some less sophisticated implementations.

The tradegy is, that some good friend extra upskilled them selfs very well, with a US university Master degree and so on, but still don't have a permanent job and work only as projects freelancers from job to job!

Countermeasures against further stagnation

From 2000 to 2007, Wolfgang Schüssel's first and second governments introduced a number of measures that made it easier for Austrian companies to perform better business:

  1. Losses made by subsidiaries and foreign investments by companies could be fully written off from tax.
  2. The restructuring of the pension system and the investment of pensions in stocks promoted the boom of the stock market.
  3. Several myths existed, Karl Heinz Grasser was able to persuade a Swiss and an American major investor to invest heavily in the ATX. (look at the Target-2 balances, after July 2007, then you might see, what kind of foreign investors and what kind of Austrian investors never catched a falling knife after Lehmann Bro's and subprime marekt crisis trouble.=> Think, when it's about financial debts obligations, who would sell ATX real companies stocks? Banks, to get more liquidity? Find it out!)
We need such countermeasurements yet again (big fat tax cuts for companies) and better up-qualification program for less qualified co-workers. 

Companies must receive a training voucher for their employees and taxes on labor and non-wage labor costs, as well as taxes on energy for industry, must be drastically reduced.

We need more big fat tax cuts for companies that employ many people.
My small company does not pay that much taxes, but tax cuts for one man / one woman companies don't make really so much sense; tax relief for corporations is urgently needed.

In an era of growth, people get easier into jobs and usually stay there

When I look at Alibaba, I can see, that a lot of chinese women in Hongkong and some new comer chinese manufactorers got easy into business. They are not yet fully professional in all aspects of their business, but with the necessary growth and sufficient constant demand, small initial mistakes don't hardly matter and they are becoming more and more professional.

Fuzzy Logic: in memoriam Siegfried Gottwald † 20.9.2015

Siegfried Johannes Gottwald (* 30. 3. 1943 in Limbach; † 20. 9. 2015) war ein deutscher Mathematiker, Logiker und Wissenschaftshistoriker. Sein Hauptforschungsgebiet war Fuzzy Logic
https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Siegfried-Gottwald

Mein langjähriger Freund Bob (Robert Antonius Berezka) sah Anfang der 1990er in diesem Gebiet sehr großes Entwicklungspotential, das aber leider nicht genutzt wurde. (1) 


Potential für Fuzzy Logik ∃ in binärer Logik + Mengentheorie.



Binäre Fuzzy Logik

Trigger für Einschalten von Erneuerbaren Energie Mini- / Hobby- Kraftwerken, erst ab gewisser naturgegebener Eingangsleistung.


Windrad Hobby-/ Mini-Kraftwerk

  • Windgeschwindigkeit <  4m/s 
    bitte keine Windenergie speichern oder einspeisen
  • Windgeschwindigkeit > 150m/s
    Orkan; Windrad auf Durchlauf, keine Stromgewinnung über zu hohem Grenzwert


Solaranlage Hobby-/ Mini-Kraftwerk

  • Sonnenstunden / Tag < ¾ Sonnenstunde im Winter
    wir belasten unseren Wechselrichter besser nicht unnötig,
    denn  bei schwacher Eingangsleistung für < ¾h, wird kaum Wechselstrom Energie in einer relevanten Menge erzeugt werden können.

Fuzzy für unscharfe Mengen

Verwendung von unscharfer Mengen schien dort vielversprechend, wo wir heute in der Statisik disjunkte Mengen und eindeutige Werte Preferenzen verwenden.

Erfassung Erwerbsarbeit

Jemand wie ich war in den letzten 3 Jahren,
  1. sowohl angestellt erwerbstätig,
  2. als auch selbstständig erwerbstätig, davon
    a. als echter Kleinunternehmer mit soliden Auftragsarbeiten für KMU's
    b. prekär als Kleinstunternehmer (eher mehr NGO community based project)/li>
  3. beim AMS arbeitslos gemeldet.
Ich bin sicher nicht der einzige, der in der Erwerbsarbeitsstatistik nicht eindeutig zuordenbar ist und hier liefert die bisherige Statistik kein passendes Bild über die Erwerbsrealität von Menschen.
Es gibt heute bereits mehr Menschen als früher, die weder als Dauerarbeitslose noch als fast durchgehend beschäftigt zuordenbar sind.

Wahlumfragen:

ÖVP  24%(scharf)  22%-30%(fuzzy)
SPÖ  20%(scharf)  18%-24%(fuzzy)
FPÖ  25%(scharf)  23%-30%(fuzzy)
Grüne  12%(scharf)   8%-15%(fuzzy)
Neos  10%(scharf)   9%-12%(fuzzy)
KPÖ    3%(scharf)   1%- 6%(fuzzy)
Bier    5%(scharf)   4%- 8%(fuzzy)


Normalerweise hat Bob oft den richtigen Riecher bezüglich langfristig technischer Trends,
wie z.B.  C/C++ wird noch lange weiter bestehen  C bleibt primäre Sprache zur Hardware und Betriebssystem nahen Programmierung
Bei Win3.11 mit sauberen Win32 API (statt Win16 und Dos16) beginnt die Zukunft. Es stimmt, Dos16 und Win16 sind inzwischen wirklich Geschichte, aber Win32 API (seit 1993) bleibt weiter bestehen.
Intel, AMD x86, x64 Architektur wird sich gegenüber Sun Sparc, MIPS, Motorola 680x0  auch  PowerPC PPC/MPC60xDEC Alpha und anderen durchsetzen (es stimmte, sogar Apple verwendete irgendwann Intel für seine MacBooks)
if there is no huge sophisticated optimization in gcc or cross compile support in Micro$oft Visual Studio for a certain processor architecture => forget this architecture. When it become not so performant for all GNU or QT stuff, then think about, how effective will be the Java Runtime / SDK, .Net Runtime / SDK, how effective the build for script languages like perl, php, python, tcl.
I only believe in Intel, AMD, Arm, Micro$oft, Apple and the man with the Red Hat.
all other commerical Unix based systems (OS/2, AIX, HPUX, Solaris, Irix) were quiet good, but  all specialized file systems like XFS, ZFS, brtfs are ported to Linux, forget processor architecture, if no sophisticated optimization in gcc.

Making symmetric cipher encryption strong again [updated]

When students in the 2nd semester in year 1992 type on the laptop during the lecture or start talking, Professor Gerd Baron always repeated very loudly that's what's all about:

We have a universe here and 
it's all about of the number of arrangements in a finite set.

Professor Gerd Baron of Mathematics modified math lecture for computer scientists, where he claimed graph theory and combinatorics and weighted models (for traveling salesmen or ip routing) to understand better things we will need later (like equal costs => multipath).

plain text ⟶ 3DES PBox → AES → 2blowfish ⟶ cipher text
cipher text ⟶ 2blowfish → AES → 3DES SBox ⟶ plain text

plain text ⟶ AES ⟶ 2blowfish ⟶ 3DES PBox (scrambled) ⟶ cipher text
cipher text ⟶ 3DES  SBox(scrambled) → 2blowfish → AES ⟶ plain text

you also can remix it per good random numbers like
3DES = 0x1
AES = 0x2
2Fish = 0x4
Serpent = 0x8

So 0xBC for encryption would mean 0xCB for decryption
plain ⟶ (3DES→AES→Serpent) ⟶ (2Fish→Serpent) ⟶ encrypted
encrypted ⟶ (Serpent→2Fish) ⟶ (Serpent→AES→3DES) ⟶ plain 

with 2 bytes strong keys (negoatiated randomized at handshake) you're quiet secure.


Try it out on area23: https://area23.at/net/SAES_En_Decrypt.aspx
Github repository: github.com/heinrichelsigan/area23.at/


A simple matrix encryption algorithm by myself:

I found a simple matrix symmetric encryption algorithm, that works similiar to 3DES,
with NxN Matrix trans, after asking that question here on  math.stackexchange.com/questions/4915786/ 

R3 ➝ R3: v(3) x M(3,3) = v(3)

⎡ 1 ⎤    ⎡ 0 1 0 ⎤    ⎡ 2 ⎤ 
⎢ 2 ⎥ x  ⎢ 0 0 1 ⎥ =  ⎢ 3 ⎥  
⎣ 3 ⎦    ⎣ 1 0 0 ⎦    ⎣ 1 ⎦ 
The inverse matrix for reverse symmetric encryption would be:
⎡ 2 ⎤    ⎡ 0 0 1 ⎤    ⎡ 1 ⎤ 
⎢ 3 ⎥ x  ⎢ 1 0 0 ⎥ =  ⎢ 2 ⎥  
⎣ 1 ⎦    ⎣ 0 1 0 ⎦    ⎣ 3 ⎦ 
ZenMatrix symetric chiffre encryption

More symmetric cipher algos are now availible!

Area23.At.Mono already contained:
3DES, 2FISH, 3FISH, AES, Rijndael (same as AES), Serpent and new ZenMatrix.

The following symmetric cipher encryption / decryption algorirhms have now been added:
Camellia, Cast[56]Gost28147, Idea, RC[26], RC532, Seed, Skipjack, Tea, Tnepres, XTea.

Why I'm publishing this article?

Unfortunately, since I catched a schizoaffective disorder 2007, I have sometimes the tendency to talk loudly and am often paranoid about being wiretapped.
Existing even bigger companies, were I was employed, (I told them about my problem since 2007) meaned, that I didn't break the compliance in that case, because I can assume that we have not the GDR with Stasi here and loudly repeating fraud detection rules at home isn't a crime. Once I feeled very painful and a spoke out loudly my idea of better AES. To avoid, that only some people could get it, I wrote a simple prototype and then sended this article to old friends, who work at US companies.

system library:BIO_connect:Connection refused:../crypto/bio/bio_sock2.c

I got the strange error message 
system library:BIO_connect:Connection refused:../crypto/bio/bio_sock2.c
on executing 
openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mail.area23.at:587
when testing sendmail smtp tls with an Let's Encrypt SSL certificate.

If you got the same error message, ensure that
  1. sendmail is running (on mail server / relay host)
    test it with init rc script 
      /etc/init.d/sendmail status
    or simple by process listing tools, like 
      pstree | grep sendmaail
      pidof sendmail-mta
      ps fauxwww | grep sendmail
    and network server socket is bound 
      netstat -avn 2>&1 |less
    or fuser and your sendmail port
      fuser -v -n tcp 25
    or various variants of lsof, like
      lsof -i TCP:25

  2. sendmail is well configured (on mail server / relay host)
    this will take a little bit too long for that article
    in my case it was a wrong IPv6 address in sendmail.mc

    DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Family=inet6, Name=MTA-v6, Port=smtp, Addr=2600:1f14:1d6d:f202:8d53:fc57:c45d:6590')dnl
     
  3. mail server is reachable from outside 
    test it with 
     telnet [mailserver] [port]
    or brutal way with a network scanner, like nmap
      nmap -p 25,465,587 [mailserver]

    if mailserver is not reachable from outside, 
    then you must lookup on server and on client firewall rules, e.g
    .
      iptables -t filter --list
      iptables -6 -t filter --list
You could also simply run strace to see, what happens:
  strace openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect mail.area23.at:587

strace openssl s_client -starttls smtp -connect [mailserver] [port]

Danger of huge monopolisation and checks and balances to keep up a living strong democracy

(Draft)

Monolopy (Conspiracy theory warning)

In mercantilism owning and potentially using a monopoly was considered as tactical advantage. Think about it, that China soonly has a monopoly on a lot of industrial products, but most of China's hardware exoported have an american, south korean or japanse label. 

When there might be a common closed source smart phone. personal computer or smart phone with only one operating system with market dominance over 90%, then we might run into a trap.

If later then, disassembling, reversing engineering is punished with high penalties and international legal claims, then social credit program can be introduced step by step by backdoor.

If your social credit is negative, then you might not have all functions enabled (on your monopoly phone or monopoly personal computer) (THIS MIGHT BE VERY DANGEROUS)


Attention, Huawei, Chinas biggest smart-phone brand and ready to soonly be main player also in african markets, is still android and open based on open source linux and I don't claim, that China will use such practices. But there is no guarantee, that US or Chinese companies would develop or exrend their powers to collect more data or control more individuals in entire world by monitoring them permanently. 
In open system, you can choose a other os to install on every hardware. I remember, that Sony Playstation implemented an other OS bootloader, where you could run linux on it. The community demanded it. Today no one tries to recommand LineageOS compatbility on Smart-Phone hardware.

Great ipv6 news from austrian mobile networks

Great ipv6 news from austrian mobile networks

Allmost all mobile providers in Austria implemented ipv6 protocol for 3G/4G/5G mobile net. 
When running ifconfig inside an android terminal, you can see, if ipv6 is already enabled at your device.

I tried to ping6 my little amazon server ipv6.darkstar.work and ping6 over icmp succeeded. 


When pinging6 from android, I started a tcpdump on my little amazon server in Oregon, to see if packets are coming well through.
Then, I tried to ping6 in the opposite direction and was so delighted. that the icmp6 ping6 from amazon subnet in Oregon passed without routing or netfilter blocking problems to my android device.



I was courious, if a service broker from the internet could reach a server socket on my android, so I installed Simple HTTP Server:


I tested my local android device http server successfully by using curl, wget, lynx and a test once from Tor Onion Router.
 
You can use of course another http fs server, like:

¼ π

¼ π = arctan(1) = arctan(45°) ✓

mathematical proof still required for:
¼ π = 1 - ⅓ + ⅕ - ¹/₇ + ¹/₉ - ¹/₁₁ + (1/13) - ...
¼ π = (n=0;n→∞)∑ (-1)ⁿ / (2n + 1)
better way to approximate π is to add iteration m=n-1 and iteration n and double it.

old & simple social liberal slogans

If you sell as a large supplier products in the cheaper segment , then it makes sense to employ people from a minority group, because with them in your sales or marketing team, you can also reach this segment of the market surley with great customer binding.

Remember that it is easier to integrate minorities in that smart liberal way, instead of forcing it by law. (Otherwise Republican party GOP and right wing parties will fury.)
Notice that minority groups often are only interested in large robust standard products inside the cheaper segement, because of income weakness as result of fewer chances and discrimination.

Sometimes humanistic or public moderate spending is labeled as 'High ugly costs'.


When people thought HP-UX, AIX, SCO Unix Group, Solaris or high end IRIX
will make the race,
then notice that now SGI IRIX XFS is availible under linux now,
that IBM's JFS is even longer part of the linux kernel,
that Sun's ZFS was ported to linux from 2005 - 2010,
as availible alternative to pure GNU filesystems Btrfs or elder ext4.


If an aggressive renegotiation of a service brings both social responsibility and shareholder value (in sense of price reducement or qualitity improvement), then that's good.


Spending money for education, children rights and fair play might not be optimally offset in your tax return, but it will give you a brilliant image and avoid problems in future.


Investing money in education and skills in next generation, probably has a very late return on investment.

Snow White Spinderula waked up after corona crisis, 7 dwarfs arround her and a lot of things disappeared

There was a girl named "Snow White Spinderula", who awaked from a stunned, cryostatic, petrified, paralyzed state, because she ate the forbidden fruit of knowledge from the apple tree in the garden of paradise and a piece of apple got stuck in her throat. 

Snow White Spinderula spits out the piece of apple, breathes and feels permeated again by the fresh and active spirit of life, recognizing that 7 dwarves standing around her.

Bit by bit she realizes now that many different things in the current world have disappeared or gone for ever and that this had nothing at all to do with the 7 dwarfs keeping an eye on her.

Disintegrated, disappeared, died ot transformed to void

A lot of internet media  blogs in right, conservative and liberal spectrum were gone

Also a lot of conservative, right wing and liberal blogs moved to virtual graveyard also known as /dev/null or Nirvana.
It's sad to see many blogs from reasonable moderate-citizen first disappeared and in result of that disappearance many rescrictions by law were made against "more radical" groups:

It's so sad to realize, that so many groups from the left or middle-class spectrum of society disappeared, shut down their internet presence and blogs and let themselves be pushed out and no longer dared to express their opinion freely in public space or on main stream channels of the internet.

A lot of things concerning software, system and kernel programming

Some epic threats in newsnet (NNTP) newsgroups
Some very passionate discussions in the linux kernel newsgroup between Linus Torvalds and Alan Cox concerning sync before close, fbarrier as alternative to fsync with funny swipes to Alans work at Intel and drinking same kool-aid as other hardware cpu programmers.

Integration of NIS (Network Information Sytem originally called Yellow Pages) in latest apple OS.

Some projects on freshmeat.net sourceforge.net knowledge to use UDP for large - huge amount of data and the intention to develope a symmetric, asymmetric or certificate based standardized encryption for  all services based on UDP.

Realization that everything (file transfer, authentication, authorization including claims and bearer tokens, web services instead of old style Sun RPC or modern gRPC, VPN, ...) over HTTPS  might not be always the ideal solution and best practice and could be realized more service oriented otherwise.

Development of a more reliable driver and toolkit for mounting btrfs, ext2-4, xfs zfs file systems under Microsoft Windows 10-11.

VIC20 Emulatoren

und programmierte in BASIC ein einfaches Zahlenratespiel: 

10 LET U=RND(-625)
20 LET V=RND(0)
30 LET W=V*10
40 LET X=INT(W)
50 REM X ZAHL VON 1 BIS 10
100 INPUT “ERRATE ZAHL VON 0 BIS 10” ; A$
110 G0 LET B=VAL(A)
120 IF B < X THEN GOTO 160
130 IF B > X THEN GOTO 180
140 IF B = X THEN GOTO 200
160 PRINT “ IHRE ZAHL IST > GROESSER”
170 GOTO 100
180 PRINT “ IHRE ZAHL IST < KLEINER”
190 GOTO 100
200 PRINT “RICHTIG!”
210 END
