Conversation

Goofy noticing: if I watch a lecture video at the speed that feels most comfortable (usually 2-3x) and pause intermittently to write notes + SRS prompts, the total time consumed is roughly equal to the 1x lecture running time (but I’m much more engaged).

I notice that watching a lecture end-to-end and *then* writing notes/prompts often makes the latter feel more like a chore. Similar observation with books and even live conversations.

I have this exact experience! My hypothesis is that when I’m writing a card in the moment, I have more context on why the card matters - so I care more. Whereas at the end, I’ve forgotten a bit why I should care. It’s amazing how much caring matters.
