Ask HN: Have any good flash card decks to share?

8 points by Terry_B 15y ago ↗ HN

Was just listening to this great Mixergy interview with Derek Sivers. http://mixergy.com/derek-sivers-blog-interview/

He mentioned the idea of using flash cards and the Spaced Interval technique to learn business books like The Personal MBA and wished someone would turn that book into a flash card deck.

Got me thinking, are any of the good people of HN doing this? Have any good business and programming related decks to share?

If you use Anki, you can search through public decks and download them for your own individual use. I use Anki for studying Japanese although so far I've just been making my own decks.

I know, but there's so much junk! A HN collection would be awesome.

I have a deck with ~40,000 facts for the USMLE Step 1 & 2 licensing boards that I use daily just for fun. My goal is to have flashcards that cover an entire medical school curriculum.

Here's the spreadsheet that I am making the flashcards from...it is primarily medical facts but lots of assorted knowledge as well.
