tach

What do you know... the patient was in a run of v-tach for several seconds.

If you let off the gas while going down hill, you can see the RPMs on the tach rise as the transmission downshifts.

The cut away to the journalist talking about how he didn't have control then shows the tach at normal.

It sometimes signals the v-tach alarm even if the patient is in normal sinus rhythm with a slightly widened QRS.

> Anyone who's worked in tach a while has seen cases where a dev has just flat out refused to do something a manager has asked them to do.

A patient moving a little and thus creating artifact in his/her cardiac rhythm frequently triggers a "v-tach" alarm.

But my more important point is that you can tach about these mappings in isolation, in the context of functional programming.

Finally, the tach can be used as a raw assessment of the load you're putting on an engine and you can optimize your driving habits according to that.

A supervisor who can tach you how to write papers, how to get them published, to tell you where you are wasting your time and to help you over the humps that may otherwise stop you.

I learned the multiplier for third and fifth gear from tach to speed, got a friendly town cop to verify it with his radar gun, and drove that car over 100K miles without ever being stopped for speeding.

The tachometer can tell you if your vehicle is running at a high idle, if the bumps you're feeling are misfires or the road, and it can also tell you whether you've accidentally left your vehicle in 3rd instead of drive after coasting to a stop.
