2 ways.
I started tracking my memory score over time.

At my lowest it would frighten people to watch me take the test.
“You just saw that image 3 times in the last 60 seconds” Me: I have never seen that image before.
At my best I could outscore most anyone in the office.
Second is more arbitrary, but more important.
Been programming for decades. Since I was a kid. A task that normally would take me a few minutes might take me a week. Harder concepts were beyond me, felt like I was trying to tackle calculus after learning fractions.
I “knew” I could do it, except I couldn’t anymore.
Then I would have some good days, and I would go around the office solving all the really hard problems for people.
As person with disabilities and physical health problems people are often at awe at me for how I go on with my life and now I'm looking at the same awe at you.
Do you feel there's anything missing with memtrax or any other tool which can make your life easier i.e. help track your cognitive health or help your current lifestyle?
