Basically, I was reading way too much Wikipedia and not actually storing much information, so I have the extension shame me if I don't remember what I read.

- cooper_ganglia 2y agoThat's genius. Have you published this as an extension? I'd love automatically-written flashcards to quiz myself on what I've read that day...
- nullindividual 2y agoWe absorb the words in front of our eyes even if we're not conscious of it. A topic that you glossed over may come up in another context and remind you of that wiki article. It shapes who we are. And sometimes knowledge of the existence of a topic is valuable.

- graypegg 2y agoI would love to mess around with this if you've published it somewhere! Folks would love it as a Show HN I bet too!
