Re: Space Based Repetition

by Tim Mackinnon

Hi Sean - this implementation is Leitner, which would be ok for my needs, although I donât quite know how you choose or specify the probabilities that are needed for this particularly implementation (and Leitner descriptions donât mention this, but I can see the intent is to give you a random flashcard favouring new or unlearned cards and occasionally giving a learned card - but Iâm not quite sure how you decide what to specify for thatâ¦ Iâm enquiring. SM-2 always intrigued meâ¦ and would be cool to plug that in and compare - but was trying to avoid the inevitable rabbit hole and not get the actual task done (Which it sounds like you thought tooâ¦) Tim > On 30 Sep 2020, at 16:21, Sean P.

Seaside's HTML DSL works fine and has the nice add-on stuff like Torsten's Bootstrap 3 and 4. Only small road bump is form handling, where Seaside uses one or more dynamic variables. To keep it simple, for my non-Seaside apps, when rendering forms I use Zinc's HTML streaming instead. Mix and match. Pierce
