Monthly newsletter for December, 2022.
This month
- Migrated hosted notes from cashpw.com (a) to the subdomain notes.cashpw.com (a)
- Didn’t catch up on flashcard review backlog in large part because I added 100+ new cards related to solving the Shortest path problem
Next month
Catch up on flashcard review backlog
I have >200 outstanding flashcards. Reviewing them all at once wouldn’t just hurt now, it would hurt forever as from time to time I’d see a similarly-sized spike of due flashcards. I’ll do 301 minutes2 of review daily to bring the count down.
This is important as I want to review new flashcards soon after creating them. Creating a flashcard on Monday and first seeing it in review on the following Monday is a poor learning experience. I’m holding off on creating new flashcards until I get through the backlog.
Bibliography
I selected 30 minutes since I think I’d be able to keep it up indefinitely. Some variation is okay but I don’t want to get to the point that I need to review cards for 1-2 hours daily. ↩︎
Targeting a length of time for reviews, rather than a number of cards, aligns with Timeboxing. ↩︎
