For an event me and Saul Munn are hosting:
Memoria is a one-day festival/unconference for spaced repetition, incremental reading, and memory systems. It’s hosted at Lighthaven in Berkeley, CA, on September 21st, from 10am through the afternoon/evening.
Michael Nielsen, Andy Matuschak, Soren Bjornstad, Martin Schneider, and about 70–90 others will be there — if you use & tinker with memory systems like Anki, SuperMemo, Remnote, MathAcademy, etc, then maybe you should come!
Tickets are $80 and include lunch & dinner. More info at memoria.day.
I'm not sure if you know this but you replied to @Luke Stebbing about his RSI with your story like 2-3 years ago on the EA discover server - I read your story and it cured my RSI! Thank you so much!
We're not currently far enough in for us to be able to manage other people contributing directly but if that changes I'll let you know
I'm looking for people to pair program with with me and my friend on a SuperMemo clone (software that Anki is based on). It has a feature called incremental reading that we'd like to create a modern implementation of.
Neither of us have a ton of programming experience; we're making ok progress but would do much better with pairing with someone more experienced than us.
I can pay around 30$/hr but can't do much better than that unfortunately.
How long should I wait from cold inception to travel (back home)? I have 2 things I'm optimizing for:
a. apparently traveling with sinus issues on a plane is exceptionally painful
b. I don't want to infect other people
I don't have a good model of how quick I should expect to recover/when I'm reasonably non-infectious.
For those wondering if they should come and if anyone is going to show up: there are way more people RSVP'd on the facebook event
How has this been in the long run?
