I hadn&amp;#x27;t thought it would go much beyond fact retention, but my hope was to frame facts in such a way that larger pictures could be also retained, analyzed, etc.&lt;p&gt;It sounds like you&amp;#x27;ve solidified some of the aspirations my idea .. area, so huge thanks for that! This is the first time i&amp;#x27;ve seen mention of SRS going beyond simple facts, and i thought perhaps my idea was a pipe dream.</text></comment>

I just watched the video and it looks great, will also read the article later.
Also - did you happen to share your (programming related) anki deck? I would love to see that!</text></comment>
