Also, why SM2 instead of FSRS?

The idea is great, although I'm a little against the spirit of releasing this as a paid product instead of an Anki plugin/front-end or something. Alas, my biggest feedback is marketing stuff: the english on the landing page is way

OP is not a native English speaker and thought "decorar", the Brazilian Portuguese verb for memorize (with a "mindless memorization" subtext) translated to "decorate".

5- I don't know if that's even an issue that needs solving with Anki. If that ever becomes an issue with your deck it's probably because you don't add enough cards per day (or preferred time period) and enough cards per

Can't say I'm looking forward to migrating from lazy.nvim, tbh... Can anyone tell me what this does better than lazy? I can't really tell from the docs alone

(slightly off-topic) Students shouldn't ever have become so laser-focused on a single career path anyway, and even worse than that is how colleges have become glorified trade schools in our minds. Students should focus on studying for

Doesn't he have an incentive to make it look like that, though? The way he phrased it, that they are losing money because people use it so much, makes it seem like Pro subscribers are some super power-users. As long as inference has a

Appropriate use of Anki isn't so simple, it's a skill in itself. Here's my strategy specifically to learn vocabulary. TL = target language, NL = native language. 1- front: image+subtitle (in TL) back: word in TL. 2- fill-in-t

This is a good point. If we are marching towards some sort of LLM-driven world, where every company wants to have automated AI agents for customer service, internal development, marketing and prospecting, the energy usage will compound. A s

What matters most is training, post-training, fine-tuning and data scraping, not inference IMO. The "prompting destroys the environment" deal always seemed sensationalistic to me, I'm glad it's starting to be debunked, b

Obsidian has all of that and more if you go for some of the advanced extensions. It's not about "graphing notes" as much as connecting a note to another. It's really not that different from inserting a page into the text

This analogy undersells the negative impact of social media. Smoking wasn't a propaganda machine at the hands of a few faceless corpos with no clear affiliation, for example, nor did it form a global spynet

I think most of the social media power users don't connect with friends and family at all through the platforms. Young Gen Zers just scroll Tiktok (or whatever clone they prefer) and share the ones they like through snapchat/disco

Well put. Easy pollution-reducing policies are all under our noses but governments chicken out of implementing them for whatever reason. Office workers having at least one mandated day of remote work would be a godsend, and it's very n

It's also false that transit prices are small, by the way, at least globally. Where I live (third world), taking the subway daily to and from work amounts to 14% of minimum wage

We have dedicated bus lanes where I live, and they don't really work during heavy rush hour, unfortunately, due to merging and turns. For example, most of the time the bus lane needs to be on the right so it can pick people up, so cars

Public transportation should always be free in cities, with car commuters paying the operation costs. Not saying it can be implemented right away, but it should be a policy goal for cities. You have all the right in the world to prefer driv
