In spaced repetition, it's tempting to ponder per-card cost—"should I pay three minutes over my lifetime to memorize this?" But for me, marginal cards are effectively *free* to add: 1. I review cards in time that'd be dead anyway. 2. I can't add enough cards to fill that time.

I’ve also considered writing an email-to-anki script: subject becomes question, body becomes answer. This would allow me to use any email interface to create cards, e.g., Siri. But I despair of all the plumbing that would be required to make it seamless.

Last thought is to use textbook glossaries to create vocab cards in bulk. I realize this violates
@michael_nielsen’s advice to make one’s own cards, but I imagine it a bit like pretraining a neural network: just learn some stock info of middling relevance, then refine later.
