    Hey, Logseq looks really cool. I really love that there are so many options nowadays for knowledge management. It's interesting to hear from more people that their onyx device work…

    Why do I feel like you need to be a sociopath to succeed?

    I haven't been able to get this idea out of my mind that to be a successful CEO, you need to be a sociopath. Somehow it feels like decent people with decent products just don't mak…

    CDN's Aren't as Useful Anymore?

    https://gomakethings.com/cdn-caching-isnt-the-performance-boost-it-used-to-be/ Just read this and was a bit surprised.

    Yeah, I think it's just about starting the thing up. It takes like 30 seconds to wake up and become responsive, and then indeed the UI was a bit unintuitive sometimes, so overall i…

    Hey, there's no docker setup just yet. I'll try to get to that this week but for now it's just the standard python install.

    This was roughly what I wanted as well. I had a Onyx Boox e ink tablet. I was adding sites to lurnby and then reading them on the Boox to use the Lurnby features. But the Boox was …

    Thanks for the kind words! I didn't realize kindle kept track of your dictionary lookups. That's a cool thing and makes a lot of sense to review those.

    Yeah, I feel this pain. I don't have any really great ideas on this front. I've started to have different review sessions using the filter function in Lurnby, but it doesn't really…

    I didn't know. I thought it was based on Arc90's original code from 2010, but I imagined that was js. I initially was using the python port by ReadabiliPy, but it wasn't working as…

    Thanks for the kind words. I would need to look over their tool in detail (it looks great btw) to really think through the details of how an integration might work. One of the thin…

    Learnawesome is very nice. Curating learning paths is a real pain these days. It's amazing that there's so much information available, but it's now almost impossible to make decisi…

    Woah. Very cool. You seem to make it really easy for people to get started and tick a lot of the boxes around privacy. Today's been a bit of a nervous day for me actually haha, I d…

    Oh interesting. PDF's is what is hardest for me. I need a completely different approach to handling them than I have been using for web content and epubs. Thanks for sharing your s…

    I remember looking at that. They are indeed really cool. What do you mean with notes and highlights you should revise? What kind of revisions are you doing?

    Will try to get it done in the next few days. :D

    Hey, thanks. I'll look into that. The way I've been personally dealing with paywalled content is just copy and paste. I use the "manual" option from "add content" and then save it …

    Woah. Didn't know about this. I'm honestly amazed at how many similar things I've discovered that I didn't know about when I started this. I did look for similar tools, but didn't …

    sweeet. Thank you! Will look at those. And I'm really happy that this whole space is finally getting attention.

    I used mozilla's Readability.js as the base. So didn't reinvent anything really :D

    Thanks. I'll probably look into a dockerfile option. Does format as a shell code block mean write it in a way that it can just be copied and pasted easily?

    Thanks! I agree with you. My goal isn't to actually make it a closed system like this. I ultimately want to make it as easy as possible for you ppl to get content in and out of the…

    Thanks! I actually haven't contributed to any open source projects myself. So this would be my first time figuring out what's involved. This helps give some structure for what I sh…

    I added an install.md now for setting it up locally. Does that work for you?

    It is web based. That way you can read on the computer and continue reading on the phone or any other device. A version that runs just locally on the computer would also work, but …

    Hey, I don't have any specific papers. And I think neuroscience makes it sound fancier than it maybe is in reality. But the primary concepts are spaced-repetition, elaborative enco…
