## [Know Your Numbers](https://philofaxy.blogspot.com/2026/08/know-your-numbers.html)

_2026-08-27 · Steve Morton · Philofaxy_

When did you last have your blood pressure checked? Do you 'know your numbers'? Having your blood pressure checked is quite a simple thing to do on a regular basis. If you don't have your own monitor to do the check your local pharmacy will have one or you can buy one, they aren't too expensive. High or low blood pressure gives rise to lots of other medical conditions. I'm no medical

During the recent hot weather I have been doing a lot of reading. Catching up on my 'To Be Read' stack of books!I'm not a fast or as fast a reader as some people. I often get so absorbed in a book or a series of books I forget the title of the book I'm reading. To take the strain out of know what books I've read or haven't read yet I created a few different Filofax inserts which I hope you

Do your friends or family ever say you spend too much time using your Filofax? Mine have said this occasionally over the years (with my husband even saying I should "live life outside the book"), and yet I am the one they turn to when they need to know something. I'm the one who knows when everyone is due for the dentist, dates when things happened, passcodes to shared accounts, etc. I also

You might not have noticed the change to the weekly posts, but since Google/YouTube changed the format of their site, it has become harder to assemble these posts. They have removed the ability to sort the results in upload order. I can still restrict the results to the last week or month.

A roof, a haircut, and a birthday. - The last few days were quite busy for me. I finished the roof of our small garden house which my wife and I built for the kids. They are 4 and 8 years old and finally have a small house they can play in right next to their sandbox. They love it. I also cleaned up the garage, I had my 47th birthday, and I was at the barber for the first time after about a year.…

Fresh pages, clean layouts, untouched tabs, all that possibility laid out in front of you. Your handwriting is suddenly neater. Your life feels about 12% more under control just by opening the thing!

_2026-08-13 · Coyote Tracks_

There’s been buzz recently about how a nascent web and mobile astronomy app, Dark Hours, got wildly incorrectly rejected from Apple’s App Store. Then maybe it turned out that the rejection wasn’t so wild because Apple may well have been looking at the astrology app the developer first submitted under the name “Asterly”. Then it turned out that the web version of Dark Hours was strikingly…

_2026-07-07 · Coyote Tracks_

Back in the olden days, there was an Insert key on Mac keyboards. (There still is on PC keyboards, although in many programs it doesn’t actually do anything anymore.) If you were editing text, you had two different modes, overwrite and insert. If you were in insert mode, then when text was in front of the cursor, typing would insert text. If the | character represents the cursor: banana…

I chased a regression through two months of history where half the commits wouldn't even compile. Here's the tool I wrote so it wouldn't happen again. - A few weeks ago I hit the kind of bug that ruins an afternoon: something that used to work didn’t anymore, and I had no idea when it broke. Not “yesterday”, not “in that one PR” — somewhere in the last month or two, buried in a stretch of history…

I tried three times to prove my old site was a disaster. I lost every time, with data. - Back in 2012 I made a keto calculator because I wanted exact macro numbers for my own diet, and all the advice online was too vague. I posted it on /r/keto, people liked it, Google ranked it well, and for years it quietly earned ad money while I worked on other things. It’s a single static HTML page. No…

_2026-02-18 · Coyote Tracks_

While I don’t think Apple Podcasts itself has a “trim silence” feature, it’s popular in a bunch of podcast players. Overcast probably kicked it off with its “Smart Speed” function, but it’s in Pocket Casts, Castro, and I’m sure a bunch of other ones. The idea is that the player “listens” for silences in the podcast and (hopefully subtly) shortens them, so you’re saving a little time even when…

For someone who’s neither all-in on AI nor a passionate anti-AI crusader, I think about it a lot. From 2018 through 2023, I worked for Viv Labs, a startup from the folks who built Apple’s Siri; they had been bought by Samsung in order to fix Bixby, their much-maligned assistant.
