110,479 7-Workout Week

This must be a record with the Activity Awards on the iPhone.

Let’s do the math here:

110,479 week
110,479 x 7 days
773,353 days

1,461  days in 4 years – including February 29 on the fourth year.

(773,353 / 1,461) x 4 = 2,177.325 years

4018 Days Ago

Has it been 4018 days already?

Some one at the office reminded me that the candy bucket is almost empty. In the mean time, I’ve been busy following the Meltdown and Spectre news. My colleague and I have been talking about this subject since we got together after work.

If you don’t have the time and patience to read the details, you can get a summary from Ars Technica.

P.S.
For some reasons I thought about James Bond’s SPECTRE when I first read the news.
