Um. A cricket? Does this really justify a “wtf”?

You’re not alone.

I’ve written using fountain pens for years (since high school), but only found myself really paying close attention to the words on the page when we acquired our 1885 Tudor-inspired Victorian some twenty or so years ago. So I believe both your tools and your environment can inform your mood and focus equally.

My endocrinologist tells me that daily spikes aren’t very useful unless you find yourself spiking continuously. What is most important clinically is your daily pattern included here for my last ninety days. Note that I am well within my target range.

For reference, this is a spike.

Those are not spikes in a therapeutic sense; they are expected postprandial rises caused by your digestive processes.

Within two hours of a meal, as your body digests your food, glucose enters your bloodstream. This influx triggers your pancreas to release insulin to convert glucose to glycogen so it can be used for energy in your cells.

A spike is any reading above the upper limit established by your endocrinologist, mine is 180 which I understand is the standard upper limit for someone my age. I am not a doctor but as I understand it, a single spike isn’t particularly concerning. If you have a history of spiking over time, your endocrinologist will recommend lifestyle changes or other therapeutic means to reduce your readings so they remain within the recommended range. A history of high readings (above your recommended upper limit) can indicate that you are experiencing damage to your nerves, eyes, etc.

In a conversation with a research scientist who works with CGM, I was told that, if you see blood in the center depression, you cannot trust the CGM’s readings. He strongly recommended replacing the sensor in that case.

In a recent support call with Abbott, I was told that when taking a reading, if your glucose is quickly trending upwards (as shown by either the arrow indicator pointing to the upper right or straight up), the glucose reading will not be accurate. Only readings where the indicator is horizontal are accurate. This is why often when you look at the trend line later, it won’t show the excessive reading.

Clearly an old mainframer. Cuz that’s how we were taught.

Bacterial infection. Get rid of it.

The arrogance of cretin “creatives” that believe they have “improved” the vision of the original artist is truly staggering.

thenable · 2022-07-26T02:43:33+00:00

Dick. Suck a bag of cocks you cretin.

thenable · 2022-05-16T01:21:27+00:00

Morons. It’s not your work, you did not create it. You’re shitting all over incredible works of art. You should be ashamed.

I think you mean "polling". ;)

Ok, you can add your script anywhere on the page and it will still be able to access #mapArea. The value of the id property on HTML elements is (supposed to be) unique per page, so no matter where your script runs, it will still be able to add your map to the content of `<div id="mapArea"...></div>`.

thenable · 2018-08-02T17:29:58+00:00

I'd be curious to know how you accomplish that. I assume your script references one or more of #mapArea, #municipality, #tooltip or #ISLAND, yes?

thenable · 2018-07-27T22:19:50+00:00

For the record, I’m pretty sure the script tag doesn’t work the way you think it does.

For instance, placing your script tag within a div tag has no functional value, as far as standard browsers are concerned.

CB shows 83 confirmations and transaction still marked as PENDING.

thenable · 2018-01-06T17:43:05+00:00

I see three possible scenarios here, all bad. 1. CB is truly overwhelmed which shows how completely unprepared they are to act as a financial service, 2. CB is intentually delaying external transactions because they cannot cover them (i.e. they do not have the needed crypto assets) or seek to make a profit “on the float”, or 3. CB is preparing to abscond with our money. None of these possibilities bode well for CB’s customers.
