Anki is great, but I'm currently having a bit of trouble in that after reaching a few thousand cards that are all fairly mature, I can't seem to get below 20 cards a day review. When it's that many, I'm experiencing a bit of disincentive in creating new decks to drill myself on new knowledge. I thought they'd continually get slower but the rate at which card appearances slow down seems to slow down over time as well.
- b_emery 12y agoI had a similar issue using Mnemosyne. Then I read "Moonwalking with Einstein" and I'm pretty convinced that spaced repetition is a solution to an adjacent problem. More important is the vividness of the memory, and the use of spatial memory (memory palace technique), along with some other techniques, for engaging many parts of the brain. These make the memory stick much more clearly and for a longer time. It's a great book but I understand there are others that are more focused specifically on techniques, with much less story.
