For anything you read that you want to remember spaced repetition is helpful. If I'm reading a book without putting questions into anki, I forget 90% of what I read. Where as with anki, I can at least keep all the basic concepts in my mind. For example, if you are reading about different types of approaches to programming, you might create a question like, "What are the aspects of Agile?" I'm not a programmer. I work in security. Today I was on a job interview where someone asked me if I was familiar with Agile. I was able to give him the bare bones explanation of it. This is something I studied over a year ago and haven't touched since.
