I agree with this post. Rationalizing based only on data can lead to flawed conclusions and bias. Obviously, quantification is useful in many domains, but when it comes to your health then the worst thing you can do is ignore your intuition on the basis of data. I also don’t keep any metrics of my website, not even page hits. It’s a hard sell to other webmasters, but I personally don’t want to start writing for the wrong reasons. I think quantification is responsible for a lot of evils in our world today — and a lot of good too. I’m focusing a lot on where quantification can be applied for the benefit of one’s spirit, rather than one’s greed.
