Seems this reflects a general finding that significant advantages remain (in muscle mass, bone structure and density, VO2 max, as well as any height and reach advantage obviously), hence the suggested open/third category. There’s usually a middle way, or I like to think so…

I learned yesterday that Prof. James Reason died. Thanks for the inspiration, Jim. But most importantly, at this time, we hold him, his family and those who loved him, to the light. www.linkedin.com/posts/steven...

Lucy’s book When The Dust Settles is the only one that I own in three formats (audio, paper and kindle) and have ‘audioread’ in two simultaneously (recommended - Lucy is the narrator of her own life and work). Her forthcoming book Come What May is released in May 2025.

If, like me, you are not a fan of Memoji’s and keep tapping the icon by accident when trying to tap an emoji, you can remove the Memoji icon via settings_keyboard_emoji stickers <off>
You’re welcome.

I just received an article proposal…70% ChatGPT on checking. Then I had to waste time writing a response tell them that we do not accept ChatGPT articles (I’m not ignoring it or making another excuse). On reflection, I should have written in the style of ChatGPT.

This is an example of casual ignorance of, or lack of care about, wheelchair users, those with pushchairs for children, and people with walking frames. Consistant issue in Edinburgh. An excess of poles and street furniture doesn’t help.

I love this. The way I repeatedly think about this is by thinking about mortality. Nothing else quite brings that level of clarity. It’s never far from my mind, and acts as a constant and necessary pull back from insane productivity obsession.

Heart rate variability in individuals with autism spectrum disorders: A meta-analysis
“Our findings support reduced HRV values (especially low RSA under social stress) to be a candidate biomarker of ASD.”
Well that seems to explain lack of progress...

Someone fairly senior did…
I’ve written back to them highlighting the quandary. It’s not a good look. Hopefully they’ll see that but I think a longer struggle is in store.
