Can you show a summary of what the zones ranges are based on the data I have entered?


that's a new feature of the update I shipped this night. In both Max Heart Rate and Resting Heart Rate Settings you directly see how the setting changes affect your zones lower and upper bounds in BPMs. Hope that helps.


How is this tagged 1986?


The byline, presumably


Another zellige motif [[[FFFFRFFFRRRRRR]]]


Nice one! If only we could combine the two :)


Nocturia + Sleep issues could mean Sleep Apnea

I don’t snore, I am not overweight.

And I had some ADHD like symptoms.

My doctor didn’t think that it would be useful to test but I insisted, lack of sleep was making me desperate. I took at least three naps a day just to be able to function.

The results were surprising even to me, AHI of 23.

CPAP treatment has been life changing.


When ambient sounds are too loud, I can’t understand what’s being said. While I can see that people around me are communicating easily. In the same way, lyrics are very hard for me to get.

Someday this research might people with the same issues.


I started to have the same issue about 10 years ago. Suddenly bars and crowded places became far less enjoyable for me because I had such a hard time keeping up with conversations. I had my hearing checked and while it wasn't perfect, it was just normal for my age.

I remember reading that it had to do with how I processed language and sounds, and that there was no real cure yet as a few years ago.

The last couple years has made it far less of a problem but as we start to return to normal (eventually) I'd love to figure it out. I tend to feel bad sitting through a conversation where I'm only hearing about a third of what others are saying.


Last year I became aware of how much difficulty I have processing speech. I think this is something I have always had. I could never understand lyrics in music, have trouble following discussions in meetings, and struggle understanding people with accents. I wonder if I have learned to just respond instinctively to “vibes” instead of actually properly processing the content of what is being said.

I suspect it is largely anxiety related. I’ve had moments where lyrics are crystal clear, after smoking weed, so I don’t think it is a hearing thing.


Not a doctor, but you can take audio/visual processing tests to get a better idea of what's going on. I took one during a barrage of ADHD related tests, it was interesting to say the least.

It could very much have an anxiety or ADHD element to it.


I feel like I'd been ok, previously. I've spent a lot of time in loud places for most of my life. It's definitely possible that I simply didn't recognize the issue.

Interesting point about music. I'm terrible at remembering the words to songs, but just fine with melody and rhythm.

Get a full audiogram and also ask them to look for cookie bite hearing loss. It's fixable.


> It's fixable.

Link says:

>> There is no cure for APD but there are things that can help.

I'm fairly sure I have this on top of regular hearing impairment. I've actually been through the NHS process and seen the graph that shows dramatic rolloff in my hearing above about 6kHz, and have a pair of NHS hearing aids.

I've not worn them since the start of the pandemic because I've not been in a crowded space with lots of people talking.

(Interestingly, because videoconferencing technology copes badly with multiple speakers and very rarely has proper working spatial audio, suddenly people with normal hearing can't disambiguate speakers either and everyone ends up rigidly taking turns)


Cookie bite hearing loss is more or less fixable, not CAPD. If you have both (which OP sounded like they did, or at least sounded like it was worth investigating) then you can fix it up a lot with targeted open dome hearing aids.


I recall as a kid that I might hear a pop song on the radio for years without even -noticing- the lyrics (or the artist for that matter). It seems that, while I hear it all, what I'm listening to - is what I'm most attracted to. (I usually did listen to the funny lyrics of novelty singles - often backed by pretty silly music.)

I suspect that, for most of us, unless we get consciously involved, what we're most attracted to is the most pleasing or exciting or interesting 'channel'. (In the case of pop music, maybe we're more enchanted by the singer - or the 'message' - and the music be damned.)

In much non-vocal, 'purely' orchestral music, the melody is the attention getter, and all the other notes might be treated as 'just the support group'. Some conductors work hard to bring out the best parts of that support. (A lot of weaker melodies are strongly dependent on how they're harmonized.)


There is a significant impact, In Morocco, endocrinologists don’t want you to do bloodwork, after Ramadan. They ask you to wait at least 3 weeks after Ramadan to do testing.


If the sense of smell is pattern recognition, would training it make us better at recognizing patterns?


Feynman trained smell, but I don't recall if he mentions any practical payoff.

I have the same isssue. I think it may be a Safari issue. Works fine for me on chrome not Safari.


That’s super annoying. Are you able to access this hyperlink while logged in in safari? https://www.foundingsales.com/10-early-sales-management

It might also be that the redirect after registration goes back to the home page, and the chapter buttons are below the fold if one doesn’t scroll down. Probably would be better to redirect to table of contents after registration. I’ll see if that can be configured through Memberspace.


Looks like it’s an issue Safari being configured to block third party cookies. Memberspace, the registration software we use, cookies you to validate registration. You just have to allow third party cookies: https://help.memberspace.com/article/115-how-to-fix-log-in-i...


I like the idea.

But how is it better than just asking for the profile type and personalizing on self-declared choice ?

For example, for the Carta website we could just ask the visitor if she is seed stage, growth stage or investor and adapt the website to the user's answer.

It's one step that can be stored in a cookie and we are certain that the user hasn't been bucketed into the wrong profile.


The amount of negative feedback this post is getting is excessive.


Agreed. There's a lot to like here.


Liking is subjective. It is code written around Flask. Do you really need that?


Yeah, I think we do.
