I believe the timing-based updates only happen once a day, so when I see drops over the course of a day I assume the cause is downvotes, rather than change of reading frame. Admittedly, I’m not sure why I believe that, now that I think of it.
Also, it’s really more “less not doing whatever I did over a 30-day period ending yesterday”, not “less not doing whatever I did exactly 30 days ago,” right? Which is harder to look up.
Though you’re right, regardless, that if I were sufficiently interested I could extract this information. And yeah, “concern” is pushing it, but I do try to use downvotes (as distinct from fewer-upvotes-than-I-received-earlier) as information about what I’m doing that the community wants less of. “Mild interest” is about right.

No. The rest of the period hasn’t changed. Any period related changes to the 30 day karma are the result of the stuff 30 days ago falling out of scope. The remainder influences the absolute level of 30dk but not the fluctuations.

(nods) You’re right, of course. I sit corrected.
