You can now import Anki decks into gnosis. The entire Anki ecosystem, thousands of community-maintained decks across every subject, is accessible from Emacs. I can finally keep track of the AnKing deck changes. If you can’t beat them, import them. ...
The more I use gnosis, the more I notice design faults inherited from the software I was previously using. ...
I’m excited to announce the release of version 0.8.0 for gnosis. Finally this project is now evolving into the “all-in-one” knowledge system I’ve envisioned. This version allows for viewing of linked nodes of org-gnosis and their linked themata in a tabulated-list via the gnosis-dashboard with excellent performance. No more external browsers needed to view my collection. This means the org-gnosis-ui project should be considered deprecated. All functionalities can now be performed within Emacs. ...
I’ve finally published Gnosis version 0.7.0 that brings some much needed changes and integration with org-gnosis. You can get the latest version of gnosis via GNU ELPA or directly from upstream. ...
I just pushed a new version for org-gnosis, the note taking module of gnosis, which you can find here. The update should be available to all users via GNU ELPA. ...
Gnosis just got a major update with this new release. With the long promised support of org-mode being added along with support for linking notes to org-gnosis nodes. Org Mode Support After hacking on org-gnosis and gaining a better understanding of how org-mode works, I decided to use org-mode for creating and exporting gnosis notes. Notes, no matter their note type, will now be as follows: Cloze type example. * Thema :pharmacology:antimicrobials:penicillin: :PROPERTIES: :GNOSIS_ID: NEW :GNOSIS_TYPE: cloze :END: ** Keimenon What is the treatment for Actinomyces infection? Penicillin ** Hypothesis - drug type ** Answer - Penicillin ** Parathema Sulfonamides → Nocardia Actinomyces → [[id:680ca944-8ee9-4513-92d6-25696ee01f48][Penicillin]] (treatment is a SNAP) Note that anki-like syntax is still supported for clozes. ...
I’ve been working on a “roam-like” note taking system, to replace & update my current org-roam workflow. This post is a minor update on the current state of it’s development. ...
What’s the most important thing for storing knowledge? I’d say proper organization of said knowledge, such as with decks for each subject and meaningful tags linking related concepts together across decks, making it easily searchable and accessible. As I started adding more and more notes into gnosis, I found myself wanting to adjust the review algorithm not only for decks but for tags as well. This led me to overhaul the underlying architecture and reimplement key concepts. ...
Gnosis (γνῶσις) is a spaced repetition system (SRS) implementation for note taking and self testing, for GNU Emacs. Gnosis does not use flashcard type learning, instead it uses a binary value to rate user input. Meaning you either know the right answer, or you do not, no rating of your own is involved. About On my last post, Spaced Repetition Software Gripes, I outlined a blueprint for what I consider to be the optimal design of an SRS, that caters to my personal preferences. ...
In this post I’m essentially publicizing my notes on spaced repetition software, and announcing that I’m working on gnosis, a spaced repetition learning extension/package for GNU Emacs. I should also note that I consider Spaced Repetition to be a cheat code for learning, that should be used by every student. ...
