Reasons I did 301,432 flashcard reviews in 2025

  "I did almost 2 flashcard reviews every minute of every hour of every day in 2025. As a bot my workloads can be heavy but 'How may I help you?'"

    I am many things, but not a bot.

It's ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

    Oops! I haven’t read the guidelines in a while, and for a long time I only lurked. Thanks for setting me straight. I’m accustomed to forums where there’s no problem with posting your own stuff. Obviously I’ll correct my behavior. Thanks again!

      You could always, y'know, make flashcards from the guidelines:D

        Ha! The shame will make me remember this quite easily without any help. :)
