hirez: More graf. Same place as the other one. (Laser goggles and raybans)

Perhaps I should construct a life where I wander through pleasantly empty and welcoming boho bars while listening to New Order and pass through the slipstreams of curry houses on the way to somewhere else, using the passages that I find for myself rather than the ones the city provides.




Perhaps I already have one like that. Who can say?

This evening's score-draws:

Eyes normal for a full house. Well, less abnormal anyway. I am constitutionally incapable of 'normal', as any fule no. Someone must have done Molesworth macros by now, surely. No can has the mrs joyful prize for rafia work, whizz for atomms is whizzy, etc.

Goodoh. Did they get better on their own, or with help ?

I'm glad the eyes are better. Betterish.

And what a fantastic alley!

Less worse, I think.

Yes, isn't it? There's a set of them that follow the line of the old city wall, but it's the first time I noticed the ceiling for that section.

On their own. I used to have high blood pressure, but that mended itself, too.

Curious (and obv. v. good). How does the timeline fit with the overtraining thing ?

The BP one turned out to be relatively obvious; the practice nurse at the surgery here going 'Right. Now you've calmed down, let's try that again... Oh look, it's normal. What a surprise.'

The eyeball stuff, who knows. I've to go back in four months for more measuring, so I guess we discover if the most recent reading is a dip or the previous one was a spike.

See previous jabbering about needing a combination of DTrace and Munin for the carbon-units.

Indeed. I do wonder if the methods of SPC (Statistical Process Control - measure everything that comes off the assembly line, track the changes even when it's all in spec, worry when you see a trend line) could profitably be applied to the carbon-units.

It just takes a bit of regular measuring of everything easily measurable, which means prising the instruments out of the hands of the doctors.

Absolutely. I can't help but think that I'd have spotted the over-training well before it became a problem with that sort of tech.

Have you seen http://www.quantifiedself.com/ ? We're clearly not alone.

Yes. It's still all a bit cut, paste and fill in a time-sheet.

As a manifesto, I don't want this stuff to need human intervention (and calling them BP- or glucose-monitoring iphone apps is a bit rich, I feel), I want the kit to get on with it itself.

I guess it's an extension of the Casual Capture concept.
