Karsten Schmidt<p>"Eventually, I stopped responding to my body. I was responding instead to a dashboard." — <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@Daojoan" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Daojoan</span></a></span> </p><p>This is a great point and very much translates to so many other parts of life/work where people stop listening to their "body" (or to their org/product/offering), outsourcing/numbing/dumbing down their decision making based on dashboards of collected metrics and then changing their behaviors on auto-pilot to improve said metrics — without ever asking themselves if the data collected actually represents answers to the right (or even important) questions...</p><p>Metrics always invite comparison &amp; competition — on a global scale — often without considering our own subjective contexts/needs/limits/aims...</p><p>Does the number of copilot prompts per day on a CTO dashboard indicate a highly productive developer or does a big fat zero merely show a different approach to problem solving?</p><p>Does the lack of constant updates to a FLOSS project mean it's become neglected/unusable or does it simply indicate it reached a level of stability?</p><p>Likewise, does my product/app need constant UI changes/updates to "streamline" user experience (often without even consulting users) based on some "goal" metrics?</p><p>Am I seen as an unproductive FLOSS developer if my public commit log doesn't show daily updates? Do gaps indicate laziness, illness, deep thinking or work on other projects? Like gaps in a CV, will these gaps of activity data hinder future employment chances or would I even want to work with orgs who select on this criteria?</p><p>Is a hike only good/better because it exceeds X kilometers or Y elevation meters?

Max Leibman<p>Continuous glucose monitoring is kind of a miracle, but one of the shortcomings of the one I use (FreeStyle Libre) that I find irksome: a precipitous decline in blood sugar will cause the sensor to go offline. It’s always, always a sharp decline, but never for a spike. </p><p>Glucose shooting up because you’ve been irresponsible? Nope, we saw that. It’s in your permanent record. </p><p>Glucose coming down fast because you’re doing something good for yourself? We’re gonna take a break. You don’t need that accomplishment in your graph, do you? </p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/diabetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>diabetes</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/motivation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>motivation</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/QuantifiedSelf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QuantifiedSelf</span></a></p>
