I spend hours reading non-fiction, taking notes, and highlighting paperbacks, but a couple of weeks later I barely remember any of it. My highlights just sit in my phone or camera roll going to waste.
I know active recall and spaced repetition are supposed to solve the "forgetting curve," but making Anki cards manually after every chapter takes forever.
For those of you who actually retain what you read:
* How do you set up a daily recall habit that doesn't feel like extra homework?
* Any workflows or apps that seamlessly turn physical book notes into quick daily reviews?
Would love to hear how you guys handle this.

I’m a developer recently laid off, applying for jobs and been thinking about the job search process, and honestly, it feels way more time-consuming than it should be.
You spend hours going through job boards, figuring out which roles are actually a good fit, tweaking your resume for each JD, filling out applications, trying to find referrals, etc. And then you do it all again the next day.
There are already quite a few AI tools that can automate applications, but I'm not sure applying to 100s of jobs is really the answer.
I'm thinking about something a bit different - an AI that understands your background and helps you focus on the right jobs, rather than just applying everywhere.
For example, it could:
Find jobs that actually match your experience
Tell you why you're a good/bad fit
Tailor your resume without making stuff up
Help find people who might be able to refer you
Keep track of what's working and what's not
Over time, figure out which types of roles are actually getting you interviews
Basically:
Not: "Apply to 500 jobs for me."
More like: "Help me figure out which 20 jobs are worth my time and give me the best shot at getting an interview."
Would you actually use something like this?
And if you've already tried tools like this, what did you find frustrating or missing?

TL;DR: Would you pay for an AI that focuses on getting you better-fit jobs and more interviews, instead of just sending more applications?
