the ground shook under my feet today

 For the last couple of weeks, I have been experiencing the power of Claude 3.5 Sonnet, the AI platform. I consider myself an expert programmer. I have been programming since somewhere around 1981. 

Today, I created a table that could be edited that updates my database based on my initial sql query. I can sort any column or delete or add rows and it has my information on my conditions. 

So much for that explanation.

What hit me like a ton of bricks, was that after instructing Claude to create this database, editable table in a webpage, using HTML, PHP and JavaScript languages,  I decided to see if my instructions could be used with a different language. Java, the computer language, is used by Android phones and Swift is used by Apple's smartphone language. So all I did was change the name of the computer language to Java and then Swift and Claude, using the same instructions, created the program within 15 seconds each. 

Nothing will ever be the same for me. I spent decades using and learning c++ using Microsoft's system. Then in 2002, I moved over to QT in Linux. That satisfied me until 2023. That's when I decided to jump into Web based apps. Now, I can create in one environment and just instruct Claude to do another environment with no changes to my instructions, except the computer language name. 

The world of computer software coding has completely changed. Everything will change because of this AI capability. It can manipulate logic in various languages.  will see massive changes in everything that uses computer languages. Today, that's even your remote.

Anyway, it shook me to the core.

Statistics of fasts

I have the graphs working on the extended fasts. All is pretty much good and well to a point. I want to superimpose the condition(s) above the fast times. Bear in mind that what appears complex in this note, the complexity of the program, itself, is at least 30 times more complex. To compare the fasting times to the condition times, for instance, I want to see when I'm losing weight compared to the fasts. Weight is the example here. What is done here will work with the thousands of conditions the members may have. That's a bit complex. The condition check may lie outside of the start and end of the fast.  I can't ignore what is outside the fast, especially if no condition tests were done within the fasts themselves. I have to use the last or average of the weights before the fast. Also, if there is weight checks within the fasts, then I'll use an average of those. When you're travelling through arrays of information, there's all kinds of gotchas that'll caus...

Huge update

 I've been reading several books since last month. The Ketogenic Bible,  Dr Fung's book, David Sinclair's book and more. I absorb these ideas on metabolic systems in the body.  The most interesting is understanding the rebuild/repair system of the body. The main idea I've come to understand is that the human system needs to spend more time on the repair side of metabolism. The thing is, we eat without allowing the body to repair.   The repair of Autophagy in all its types really can't function properly with just a few hours of rest from eating. We are built to repair our cells when we don't eat for a few days. To measure the amount of repair taking place I use the GKI index. For that to work I use the blood tests for Ketones and Glucose using inexpensive blood monitors. Read the levels on my site: mywaterfasts.com.  What I've learned is that it took me three days to reach down to 1.5 on the GKI index so that cysts are being repaired. That fixed my right eye...

Condition Graphs

 The entering and saving of the condition system is working. I am now working on the conditions graph that shows up above the fast graph as a line graph. It's a bit complex. Something like, first cut the conditions that exist before and after the selected dates of the fast graphs, then average the numbers between each fast and create the line point at that height. That gives me the ability to see how my progress corelates to the fasts. So, like, if I'm losing weight, I can see how that particular graph affected my weight or blood pressure or inflammation of my joints etc. After that's done, I'll be working on getting the system, as a whole, to accept multiple people. After that, I'll make the system more efficient. Like being able to login in from the front screen and then jump to the main app screen with some message saying I'm logged in. After that, I want to get the totals of the GKI indexes and maybe graph that. There's still a lot to do but I'm prog...
