For me, the usage of spaced repetition ("a medium which makes memory a choice") built into the essay was more interesting than the content itself. Now we just need a standard for embedding these sorts of question and answer in documents so you can use the spaced repetition software of your choice (or just publish an anki deck for it).
- johnsimer 7y agoI'm working on something like this This site's approach looks promising
- anitil 7y agoI'd love a tool to make building anki decks easier. I've gone so far as to make plugins to create cards from highlighted sections, but I feel like this is clunky. I'd love to hear more about your idea edit: I found it - branches-app.com/theplan. Taking a look now
- andymatuschak 7y agoVery glad you're enjoying that! While we've explored some of the possibilities in this space in the essays here, it does feel early to standardize: lots we're still excited to explore in purpose-built contexts first. :)
- nestorD 7y agoI have read "quantum computing for the very curious" and I found it impressive, its a great article and a great way to teach. For your records, here are the few downsides I found : - Some questions seem to be of little relevance (I am not interested in memorizing an Einstein quote for life but I have no way of signaling it). - The order of the questions is deterministic within a session (I always get some related questions on after the other). - I received no email notification when "How the quantum search algorithm works" went out.
