=== FAN-TRANSLATION GUIDE ===
Hello fan-translators! From the bottom of my heart:
thank you for doing this, and, you've no idea what you've gotten yourself into.
There's about 3500 words to translate, including the flashcards & further reading.
Before doing anything, please read all these steps:
https://github.com/ncase/remember#how-to-translate
(emphasis: do NOT edit the original index.html. make a copy of this page!)
To make translation less painful, I've added little HTML comments throughout.
Look for the ones that say "TRANSLATOR NOTE".
And after translating this page, don't forget to go to translations.txt
and "add" your translation there! (further instructions will be there)
Good luck, and many thanks again!
<3,
~ Nicky Case

This setup is called The Leitner Box.
It's like a card game you play against yourself!

But <i>when</i> do we review cards?

Level 2 every two days, Level 3 every <i>FOUR</i> days,
Level 4 every <i>EIGHT</i> days, etc...

after a while, <b>you should make your own cards.</b>

To help you get started with Spaced Repetition <i>today</i>,
you need to answer four questions:
</words>
<!--
TRANSLATOR NOTE:

-->
<words x=8 y=237 w=120 no-bg style="color:#fff; font-size:40px">

</words>
<words x=121 y=237 w=120 no-bg style="color:#fff; font-size:40px">

</words>
</panel>
<panel w="600" h="80">
<words w="600" x="-15" no-bg="">
You'll answer these questions by making flashcards!
So, here's the <i>front</i> of our first flashcard, our first question:
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250 bg="#e0e0e0">
<sim x=29 y=-20 w=440 h=300 src="sims/singlecard/?card=you_what&front_only=yes"
style="width: 440px; height: 300px; transform: scale(0.83,0.83) rotate(3deg);"></sim>
<img src="pics/fcard_frontonly.png" style="width:100%; height:100%; position:absolute; top:0; left:0;"/>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=450>
<pic src="pics/end0.png" sx=500 sy=0></pic>
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
For example, you could use Spaced Repetition to help you learn...
</words>
<words x=120 y=104 w=100 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
a new language
</words>
<words x=320 y=107 w=100 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
a new instrument
</words>
<words x=115 y=195 w=100 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
computer programming
</words>
<words x=340 y=195 w=150 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">

</words>
<words x=129 y=283 w=200 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">

</words>
<words x=389 y=290 w=100 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">

</words>
<words x=80 y=380 w=380 h=30>
Now, you write <i>your</i> answer on the back:
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=600 h=350 bg="#e0e0e0">
<sim x=0 y=0 w=600 h=350 src="sims/type/?card=you_what"></sim>
</panel>
<panel fadeInOn="answer_edit_you_what" w="600" h="40" style="margin-bottom: -10px;">
<words w="600" x="-15" y="-10" no-bg="">
(note: you can scroll back here &amp; change your answer later)
</words>
</panel>
<panel w="600" h="80">
<words w="600" x="-15" no-bg="">
However, recall that for Spaced Repetition to work,
you need to connect it to something you <i>care</i> about.
So our next question is:
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250 bg="#e0e0e0">
<sim x=29 y=-20 w=440 h=300 src="sims/singlecard/?card=you_why&front_only=yes"
style="width: 440px; height: 300px; transform: scale(0.83,0.83) rotate(3deg);"></sim>
<img src="pics/fcard_frontonly.png" style="width:100%; height:100%; position:absolute; top:0; left:0;"/>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=450>
<pic src="pics/end0.png" sx=1000 sy=0></pic>
<words x=10 y=10 w=430 h=60>
That may be too philosophical, so here's some
concrete examples of a <i>why</i> behind a <i>what:</i>
</words>
<words x=130 y=105 w=350 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
<b>WHAT:</b> a new language
<br>
<b>WHY:</b> to speak to friends, family, lovers in their native tongue
</words>
<words x=130 y=210 w=350 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
<b>WHAT:</b> computer programming
<br>
<b>WHY:</b> to make money so you can eat
</words>
<words x=130 y=290 w=350 style="text-align:left" no-bg class="comic_text">
<b>WHAT:</b> anything interesting
<br>
<b>WHY:</b> curiosity, for its own sake!
</words>
<words x=210 y=380 w=250 h=30>
So... what's <i>your</i> why?
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=600 h=350 bg="#e0e0e0">
<sim x=0 y=0 w=600 h=350 src="sims/type/?card=you_why"></sim>
</panel>
<panel w="600" h="80">
<words w="600" x="-15" no-bg="">
You now have your what and why... but we still need to pick a <i>how!</i>
That is, what tool/app do you want to use?
Our next card asks:
</words>
</panel>
<panel w=500 h=250 bg="#e0e0e0">
<sim x=29 y=-20 w=440 h=300 src="sims/singlecard/?card=you_how&front_only=yes"

Now: doing Spaced Repetition is actually quite easy...
however, doing it <i>as a daily habit</i> is hard.

<words x=60 y=355 w=400 h=30 no-bg>

Further Reading

<p>
Something something shoulders of giants.
Here are the reads that made Spaced Repetition a part of my daily life:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
🤓
<a target="_blank" href="http://augmentingcognition.com/ltm.html">
Augmenting Long-Term Memory</a>
by Michael Nielsen
showed me that Spaced Repetition wasn't just a tool for memorization,
it's a tool to build deep understanding. It could even be a way of <i>life</i>.
</li>
<li>
💬
<a target="_blank" href="https://fluent-forever.com/the-book/">
Fluent Forever</a>
by Gabriel Wyner
convinced me to finally (re)start learning French,
and create a Leitner Box. (my 64-day calendar was adapted from this book)
</li>
<li>
🃏
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.supermemo.com/en/articles/20rules">
20 Rules for Cards</a>
by Piotr Wozniak taught me how to squeeze the most out of Spaced Repetition.
(Note: the author also invented the algorithm used by Anki!)
</li>
</ul>
And my favorite reads on the science of learning:
<ul>
<li>
👩‍🎓
<a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/Why-Dont-Students-Like-School/dp/047059196X/">
Why Don't Students Like School?</a>
by Daniel Willingham
proved to me that "mere memorization" is actually <i>necessary</i>
for creativity &amp; critical thinking.
</li>
<li>
✏️
<a target="_blank" href="http://tlcp.depaultla.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/05/Dunlosky-et-al-2013-What-Works-What-Doesnt.pdf">
What Works, What Doesn't [PDF]
</a>
by Dunlosky et al
summarizes <i>200+ studies</i> on various learning methods.
In sum: common techniques like re-reading &amp; highlighting don't work,
less-common techniques like spacing &amp; self-testing do.

This organelle is called "mitochondria".
Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.
They're found in almost all eukaryotic (nucleus-having) organisms.
The most widely-accepted hypothesis for the origin of mitochondria is Endosymbiotic Theory:
around ~1.5 billion years ago, a prokaryotic (nucleus-lacking) cell that was "eaten" by another cell,
somehow survived, and has continued to live inside them ever since.
