It's not a cure-all, especially for language learning. I say this as someone who has done a ton of spaced repetition, language learning and who, in a former life, wrote curriculum for language learners. 95% of the time, if you have the option to choose between ER (extensive reading) and SRS, go with ER. SRS is very useful for certain sub-problems in language learning, though. > I'm curious if anyone else has used spaced repetition over a long period of time with a deliberately ambitious plan. An early pioneer, Piotr Wozniak, did exactly that, even to the detriment of the business success of Super Memo. He lived his life by an algorithm, timed swimming workouts to aid his SRS, put his emails through SRS, lived on a > 24 hour schedule... He basically went all in.
