Learning the ranks
Rank 1The two oldest tools
Use spaced repetition for facts (a free app works) and the memory palace for ordered things: walk a familiar route and place images along it.
Rank 2Strange and specific
Make images absurd and specific; the brain keeps the strange and drops the generic. Rehearse names by using them out loud within a minute of hearing them.
Rank 3One real domain
Build a deck for one real domain (a language, anatomy, code syntax) and keep it daily. Ten cards a day is roughly 3,650 facts a year.
