With the major outlining exercises for results and methods done, I’m working on the actual prose of my first, first-author paper.
Yikes.

Nuts and Bolts
If you haven’t heard about Apple’s switch to x86, go look it up or something. That said, speculation about the future of Apple is running wild.
Contrast this lucid and thorough post by John Gruber with Robert Cringely’s usual drivel. It’s remarkable, isn’t it? And yet, I think that Cringely is more widely read.
Why?
So Much to Do
Today I came to a realization while doing my weekly review: There are a lot of things that I want to do, to learn in the time I have. Things I’m excited about.
I guess I’d best get crackin’, as a feller says.
So many figures
I’ve been working on refining the ‘results’ figures for the paper most of the day. The rest of the time I’ve been working on other projects. I tried to take a nap for a little while, because I’m tired. But I couldn’t fall asleep.
I think I’ll go swimming soon. I feel off today, and I hope that helps.
Bad Ground
I just ran a 6-second (simulation time) pacing of a model, with 20 beats total. When I went to check the results, I wasn’t happy with what I found:
It seems that the ground I placed in the bath below the model caused a problem with the uniformity of conduction. I wish I’d noticed that before burning a day and a half of CPU time.
Live and learn, I guess. Back to work…
