Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards
Anki is a great software, but unfortunately it is quite difficult to install on Linux systems. Almost all packages on major distros are by now years out of date or kicked out, because Anki changed its build systems so many times, that the existing package maintainers simply dropped it: https://github.com/ankitects/anki/issues/1378
Nowadays, the Anki version in Ubuntu is from 2019! The snaps are also hopelessly outdated.

StyleX – Meta's Styling Library
To anyone for which learning lots of names of things that you use semi-frequently is a bottleneck: you can use spaced repetition (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_repetition) to remember them way more easily. I use Anki (https://apps.ankiweb.net/), SuperMemo is another option (with other features, and lots of interesting articles on their website).
For example, I've been using it to remember shell commands and options. Now whenever I have to search for an option that I think will be useful in the future, for example `-M/--max-columns` for ripgrep, I put it in Anki (question: "Ripgrep: Search for 'clukay' and don't print columns longer than 200 bytes", answer: "rg -M/--max-columns 200 clukay"). Each day I review my cards (~5/10 minutes at most). I used to not be able to remember an option like that that I use once a week, but now I can.
For more info on how to use it effectively, I've found https://borretti.me/article/effective-spaced-repetition to be really helpful.

Using spaced repetition systems to see through a piece of mathematics
For people who don't want to follow the author down the unnecessarily deep rabbit holes about matrices and other things, but are interested in learning techniques, here is a wiki article on what spaced repetition is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_repetition
He said he uses this application to do spaced-repetition learning https://apps.ankiweb.net/

In the 1st anniversary of FSRS, I want to share some progress of recent works.
Besides, dae, the lead developer of Anki, helped me integrate FSRS into Anki. We have merged FSRS Optimizer into Anki's main branch. The beta package will be released in a few weeks.

Setting Up Obsidian for Content Planning and Project Management
Obsidian is a writing application created to allow for offline / private note taking in markdown format, in an interface that looks a lot like our regular programming IDE. It is very flexible, with a good collection of community plugins that you can use to customize Obsidian to your heart contents.

Where Is Noether's Principle in Machine Learning?
Thank you!
In the beginning, I used kognise'z water.css [1], so most of the smart decisions (background/text color, margins, line spacing I think) probably come from there. Since then it's been some amount of little adjustments. The font is by Jean François Porchez, called Le Monde Livre Classic [2].
I draft in Obsidian [3] and build the site with a couple python scripts and KaTeX.

Show HN: Reor – An AI note-taking app that runs models locally
Great job!
I played around with this on a couple of small knowledge bases using an open Hermes model I had downloaded. The “related notes” feature didn't provide much value in my experience, often the link was so weak it was nonsensical. The Q&A mode was surprisingly helpful for querying notes and providing overviews, but asking anything specific typically just resulted in less than helpful or false answers. I'm sure this could be improved with a better model etc.
As a concept, I strongly support the development of private, locally-run knowledge management tools. Ideally, these solutions should prioritise user data privacy and interoperability, allowing users to easily export and migrate their notes if a new service better fits their needs. Or better yet, be completely local, but have functionality for 'plugins' so a user can import their own models or combine plugins. A bit like how Obsidian[1] allows for user created plugins to enable similar functionality to Reor, such as the Obsidan-LLM[2] plugin.

DevDocs
Not a complete answer, but I hope Markdown is or becomes the standard for offline docs and text for local/offline consumption. I only ever write in markdown anyway (usually with http://obsidian.md).
The closest thing I know of for a service like RSS to download documents is [Dash for macOS - API Documentation Browser, Snippet Manager - Kapeli](https://kapeli.com/dash).

Ask HN: What do you use for note-taking or as knowledge base?
I keep absolutely everything in a single folder. Saved documents, images, movies, financial records, game saves, it doesn't matter. My hierarchical naming scheme takes care of organization. On the odd occasion I actually need a folder, I just append ".d" to the filename.
I use . as a hierarchy delimiter, so file extensions are just part of the hierarchy, and I can have multiple files with the same name except for the extension. For example, "film.spongebob.png" is a photo of spongebob, "film.spongebob.org" is a note about spongebob, and "film.spongebob.s1.e7" is my favorite episode.
I use org-roam [1] for note-taking and task/time-management. I absolutely require a plain-text system so it either had to be markdown or org-mode. Emacs was the deciding factor, else I would have still been using Dendron [2]
If OneNote is your thing, I'd probably recommend Obsidian [3] over org-roam. Despite it being the greatest program ever created, Emacs is a lot to learn "just" for taking notes.
If you like VS Code, check out Dendron. It's the one that got me into more serious PKMS instead of just chucking notes in a folder all willy nilly.

Publishing to my blog from Obsidian
I like using Obsidian for almost everything writing-wise. But, this has caused occasional friction when it comes to publishing to my blog. I've mentioned before that I'm trying out TinaCMS, which is generally working well for me (especially for posts with images), but I wanted to try something where I can push straight from Obsidian if I'm not able to use Tina for whatever reason.
