@michael_nielsen and I have been wondering: what happens if we take powerful ideas from cognitive science and deeply integrate them into explanations? Our first experiment in a new "mnemonic" medium:https://quantum.country/qcvc

Lots more to share: how the mechanics affect the prose and vice-versa; how we designed the interactions to be super light-weight; the impact of self-assessment on the design; conveying exponential progress; exploring new media via serious—not toy—content; etc. Stay tuned!

What is this chart telling me? Is it just sessions over time, i.e., it would be perfectly linear if I review right on schedule each time? Or does it factor how much of the content is retained "permanently?" And I guess the x axis is maybe not linear?

Oh...does the the completion line move to the right if it's taking more review sessions than forecast? Honestly writing that last tweet was helpful in trying to understand the visualization, though I'm still not 100% certain I get it.

I just finished the QC study and absolutely loved it! Now I want an open file format for flashcards and them as an attachment to every educational article... Thanks for your work!
