I'm a fan of spaced repetition too and have incorporated Anki in my life in more ways than simple memorization.
But calling it "infinite recall" is a bit misleading. Improved long-term retention at the cost of minimal unintrusive prompting is probably closer.
- comfypotato 4y agoThe article is a joke proving how an immortal person could get infinite recall with spaced repetition.
- tpoacher 4y agoThat's not how I read it. And in any case, that is a common attitude/misconception about spaced repetition, which disillusions many people after they realise they still need to put the effort in to make it work, so it's worth pointing out.
