   RemNote - A tool to remember and organize what you learn

   We all love the idea of building a "second brain". RemNote has become increasingly popular since the start of 2020. Why? *Because it combines studying with Knowledge Management in a way that hasn't been seen before. *

   If you are searching for a rather learning-related tool for “connected thinking”, RemNote is the way to go. In RemNote, you can create spaced repetition flashcards while taking notes with the outlining feature. This is beneficial because the order of your notes will always keep tidied up - You will always have an overview.

   Additionally, RemNote adds new features every month. You can use it for Project Management, Note-Taking, or even journaling.

   🏁 Competitors: Roam Research, Obsidian.md, Logseq

   👍 Pros:    Free basic plan|Quick response time from developers|Combines note-taking with spaced repetition|Outlining|Spaced repetition feature

   👎 Cons:    Ocassional bugs|Seems complicated/complex at first

• How trying new programming languages helped me grow as a software engineer

  I really like Hy because it's fully inter-operable with Python. But its documentation is insufficient for anything moderately complex, and its tooling support is pretty basic. If Hy were well documented and supported I'd use it for all my throwaway scripts and prototyping -- today I use Python for that. Source: over 1 year ago

• Val on Programming: What makes a good REPL?

  I've been using the Hy REPL[0] whenever I've wanted to drop into a python REPL. The lack of whitespace formatting with Hy is great, but it still has access to all of python's libraries. [0] - https://docs.hylang.org/en/stable/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Any effective study tips that don’t take up your whole day? Especially for midterm season.

  Flashcards/spaced repetition is a great way to get familiar with concepts and terms for memorization based subjects. Some apps like Remnote and Quizlet are great since they make you practice concepts you're less familiar with more often and concepts you're more familiar with more often. You could open it up any time you're idle like on the bus too. It'd either require you to make your own flashcards first or get... Source: over 1 year ago
