that doesn't seem to be true when it comes to spaced rep systems. i've been a memory enthusiast for a while now, but i learned so much from this post. i mean, all the possibilities, man! some big-brain stuff.
i am really inspired by this post. I am gonna create a system for me which includes:
- reminder of my own beliefs (which may change, so it might help to ankify it and contradict at times)
- guitar chords and routine
although i have a question. will the FSRS scheduler do worse with these kind of things? does it even make a difference? (i still have a lot to learn about the technical aspects of SR)
and, do you have templates for the cards for the use cases you mentioned? if so, could you please send them to me?
Great post. Makes me really wanna go beyond memory.
PS i tried your low-effort-memories-in-anki tip. it works perfectly! thanks for that!
On scheduling, the scheduling is usually kinda clunky but if you’ve already used spaced repetition software, you’ll have a vague sense of what the different selections feel like and you can just select whatever would be best for you (e.g. sometimes I won’t mark a habit as easy even if it feels well-ingrained because I want to make sure it comes up again soon).
On templates, all of my cards are either just standard or cloze.
when you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

i am really inspired by this post. I am gonna create a system for me which includes:
- a reading list
- open-ended-ideas-and-come-up-with-new-opinions kinda thing
- a bucket list for projects and to-dos
- habits
- reminder of my own beliefs (which may change, so it might help to ankify it and contradict at times)

I’m glad it helped; it’s really easy for the time I spend writing to feel wasteful sometimes.
On beliefs, what you said reminded me of this post: https://jacobgw.com/blog/philosophy/2024/04/14/pastself.html.
