Ask HN: Do you maintain a log of what you learn? How often do you go over them?

I put new facts into Anki ( https://apps.ankiweb.net/ ) and then they get reviewed daily, with a steady, slow addition of new facts.

It's a very effective way to keep everything in long-term memory. (It's also very difficult. You're trying to recall items that are just at the edge of your memory.)

Interesting. Do you have fixed schedule every day to go through the facts in Anki or is it more on a ad hoc basis ?

Yes, I use Anki every day.

When I was working from an office, I used the commute time (I take the train) to practice Anki. Now, it's the evenings.
