If this is true, then this post by Michael Nielsen may be interesting to the poster. He uses a novel method of understanding a paper by using Anki to learn the areas of the field relevant to, in this case, the AlphaGo paper. I don’t have a good reason to do this right now, but this is the strategy I would use if I wanted to understand Stuart’s research program.
Yep, I’ve seen that post before. I’ve tried to use Anki a couple times, but I always get frustrated trying to decide how to make things into cards. I haven’t totally given up on the idea, though, I may try it again at some point, maybe even for this. Thanks for your comment.
Also, NB, your link is not formatted properly—you have the page URL, but then also “by Michael Nielsen is interesting” as part of the link, so it doesn’t go where you want it to.

There appears to be some sort of bug with the editor, I had to switch to markdown mode to fix the comment. Thanks for the heads up.
I use Anki for this purpose and it works well as long as you already have a system to give you a strong daily Anki review habit.
