Best line from the write-up: It combined three of my passions: running, photography, and getting attention. Great design!
I love that line too- somehow being honest and upfront about something thats "taboo" to like makes it totally fine with me

You have to pay a subscription just to get your photos out of the clip!? I like the idea of the clip, but what a huge dealbreaker
hmm, as far as I know you just pay the $10 a year if you want to have your photos stored on the cloud, but if you are willing to store all them yourself you can do that. But i'll double check that!
You don't need the subscription if you just want to export the photos locally. But the subscription fee is $9/mth, not year.

#85This is SO well done. So, so impressive. A side question, for any doctors on HN-- I'm really curious, what do you think about the Blood Tests section? That is, the benefits of monthly blood testing. From talking to one earlier today about related topics (coincidentally!) I could imagine the following response: 1. The ideal ranges for each value on your blood test do not necessarily represent the ideal range for you p…
For normal people monthly lab testing would be overkill at best and dangerous at worse.
The thing to remember about lab tests is that the "normals" are based on bell curves so approximately 1 out of 20 labs will be abnormal from this phenomena alone. The more labs you get, the more false abnormals you get. If each false abnormal gets worked up, you are talking a lot of additional testing and worry.
Typical recommendations to test hypercholesterolemia is every 90 days at most if actively treating and then yearly once stable.
To your aside, I think annual physicals are probably overkill, but primary care doctors are now expertly trained in screening for multiple issues that could affect young healthy folks. Seeing your PCP for a "well-person" visit every few years is a good idea. Most of the time the doctor isn't going to order labs and will just chat a bit, do a physical exam, and get you on your way. A good doctor will have informed opinions about your exercise and diet regimen, for example.

#86This is really amazing; on the desktop, the site looks fantastic and it is very interesting to browse. I learned way more about his travel history than probably necessary due to sheer interest. That said, it is completely unusable on the phone. Not just 'it looks weird' but completely broken. I can't navigate anything or even read the article linked here. -Firefox on Nexus 5
FWIW it looks very nice in Mobile Safari, maybe there's something Firefox doesn't support right now?
Photos page just crashed iOS on Ipad 3 completely, wpthink it mirth have been all the hexagons. First couple of pages look OK though.

Ah, thanks for the clarification!
