> Retyping things is inefficient for learning. It's like trying to retype calculus solutions
Says who? You're saying this unequivocally like you have research that supports this.
I used to re-write the notes I took for studying and it was like night and day for how well I did on tests. IT also gave me a chance to tighten the information I was receiving. And it's exactly what's happening here.
OC out here denying the actual learning and reinforcement research because of vibes
It’s very common here on HN from the threads I’ve engaged in - everybody has an idea how learning works but it’s usually based on perceived personal experience and not actual research. I.e. you’re completely right with calling it vibe learning.
I had to re-read it a few times to make sure I was actually interpreting it correctly because I couldn't believe someone would make a claim like that for everyone.
