Ok. This is awesome. Had never heard of "Leitman Box" system, but this video of (i think @Anonym_s3) implementing it in @RoamResearch absolutely has me convinced it is the best way to do SRS in Roam today.
Great tutorial. Great use case.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmv5Yrnmlgg …

More info on Leitner Boxes
@andy_matuschak@michael_nielsen curious if you have thoughts on this as compared with Anki flavored forgetting curve. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leitner_system …3 replies 0 retweets 8 likesShow this thread -

It's less efficient than SM2 etc but maybe easier to understand/phsicalize. I feel, though, that most people overrate the problem of optimizing the algorithm and underrate the problem of making SRS desirable, valuable, tractable. Optimization opp'ties are a nice problem to have.

eg. This morning I was studying service workers and writing some notes on them, and being able to write SRS prompts inline just completely transformed the experience. It feels completely different than writing atomized notes in Anki. This level of q is the high-order bit, I thinkpic.twitter.com/qT2JAQQqlJ

Are you using brackets to create close questions or is it just the q and a at the bottom? I've been thinking of a notation in roam as I process notes, where I could easily generate Anki questions (with some processing by a script and a plug-in).

Yes, braces create cloze prompts using the containing paragraph.

Awesome. Are you willing to share your Anki script that parses the markdown (even if it's very rough)? - I'm thinking of doing something similar from Roam, with a Keyboard Maestro script acting on the clipboard or something (for now).

Not yet feeling game to open source the whole thing, but that piece happens to be orthogonal and fairly trivial, so here you go!https://gist.github.com/andymatuschak/35be2a2041eda6773347a61ce75cb641 …
