Watching the Apple Watch --Watching Over Me

Wrote this in an email last week. Extreme pursuit of justice by a extreme endurance sport founder.  
Extreme physical performance goal rewards stimulus and response.
Extreme conceptual justice and fairness rewards relationship.
Conflict.   

I know much of the history of the race, learned so much more by doing it.

Julie said at her induction that her famous example should be tempered by knowing that we have free will to decide when to quit.  

Moving on now and hope to visit in a month or two.


The Enduring Fight Over the First Ironman Triathlon

-----------------------------------------------------

The relationship is maybe only connected by those that go to the extreme in performing a physical goal.  Others, do not know the experience and how it applies.  Very good and very bad.  Like life in the fast lane that is becoming the domain of self driving cars that have self control reducing/eliminating human control and even  bad judgment.

It always seems the deepest longest look at things happens on Sunday morning.

I have been wearing the watch for a month or so.......Maybe this shoe does not fit like one size fits all. For most, yes.  For the exception? Not so well.    If they have a point of entry to whatever the watch is intended to assist that is out of the norm,   what is the norm at an extreme.....It might be detrimental?

On the other hand it is good to identify that small different point of entry to activity or anything else for leading edge benefit at either end of the bell curve tails.

Then focus on the that small segment of extreme difference.  Nothing new.  Exceptions to the rule(s) change them.  Maybe the benefit of the watch is to find the exceptional ends, regardless of a value judgment and....

Find out what makes them tick to learn from that not to modify it?

Those studied/participating at the extremes do so at a risk.  Those that see the risk/benefit understand it.

Those that think they see benefit and will try anything may suffer unintended consequences.

What doe "closing the circle on yesterday's activity" mean when the significance of yesterday's activity was not excercise but an important critical personal problem that did not get resolved that demanded most of the day's focus and intense effort to solve.  Solve at the expense of not performing physical exercise.  Exercise that normally rewards for performance.

Obviously failure in the previous day to do something at the expense of a physical goal is immediately related to failure...of the real priority of the previous day!!!

Cross connected unintended consequences with perhaps exceptionally adverse results.

Seems to me like that was the difference between yesterday for me and a message to me on the watch today to close the circle.  It was absolutely an applicable message in intent but....the target performance was not physical but personal problem related.

Result:  Failure at the personal problem performance level.  A message to me.  The me that takes some pride and value in life reward point from attaining personal physical performance and other goals that are not as complex and hard to solve as personal relationship challenges.

Good thing?

Bad thing?

Has to be studied.

Artificial Intelligence tech applications benefit most and are the future.

Adverse effects for some?

Tests intended contribute to the general common good identify unintended consequences for resolution.  That is good.

A conundrum of free choice of the individual and if things go wrong a responsibility somewhere to end the test.  Accountability if it is not.

Seems like the Interrogation Model that is justified by intention of the greater good.

A moral and ethical decision that requires a high level of judgment and control.  Ultimately the participant must have a clear and protected "Stop" button.  Difficult when the trial itself may preclude the participant ability to understand the trial and how to stop participation.

It is a contribution to the advancement of science.  If the subject loses control to stop it those conducting it must make a judgment.  Difficult call when they see the public benefit at the private expense of the participant and have to make a decision for them.

It has relationships to extreme sports.  The kind of people that wear this watch.

Strange search term results
