       | It's worth noting, the author actually suggests against using
       | others anki packs. They should be a personal experience.
       | 
       | None the less I think these kind of things, are useful to find
       | any gaps, and provide inspiration on how to structure your own
       | collection.

         | I've been using Anki since 2009, and after about 2014 or 2015 I
         | stopped using other people's decks. I find that the information
         | that I put into Anki is much better retained, as it forces one
         | to comprehend, not just memorize.

           | practice with anki then has some ''meat' to hang my memory
           | off.

       | This perfect thank you. I love the concept of anki but always
       | neglect adding more comprehensive card sets because having rsi
       | means limited use time with my hands and thus needing to
       | prioritize other things over flash card creation.

       | Not sure I see the utility of these. I don't think the point of
       | the Fast.ai course is to be able to answer Deep Learning trivia.
       | It's heavily hands on and generally being able to answer these
       | questions seems very low value compared to being able to
       | implement a fine-tuned VGG model for example.

         | When you are self taught, questions from others really can help
         | build your thinking and confidence.
         | 
         | I got better only when I had to answer questions to clients,
         | friends and x colleagues who were just curious how things work
         | or what can work.

       | What tool can import this deck?
       | 
       | My android app AnkiDroid does not seem have the option.
