This is an interesting thing i’ve noticed lately, and maybe it’s a bias and not actually happening as consistently as I think it does, but this is a typical example.
New review.
Something instantly pops into my head (lets say A).
Thinks for a second, and decide to answer something else (lets say B).
Wrong answer, correct answer was A.
Does anyone else gets those at least semi consistently?
Yeah I just stopped using leech addons at this point because I don’t want to worry about this stuff anymore.
If I get slowed down by leeches, then so be it.
I still have the addon that tells me which SRS level this or that item is and I’m also considering ditching that one because it’s giving me informations I shouldn’t need.
I have the same! My leeches often transform from making the same mistake every time to remembering that it is not what I always think it is, so when I finally actually learn the correct answer, I always assume that I’m wrong even though I’m not.
However, I usually solve this by creating a new mnemonic, so that I don’t keep falling for the same old one that has been broken by that problem. It’s a bit of a workaround, but after doing that I usually get the answers right.
Oh my days yes, and I think it’s getting worse and worse. Partly because of the leech issue mentioned by others, but I definitely do this to myself with burn reviews and everything.
i personally recommend dropping this addon, i also used to use it but there’s definitely a trap to fall into with thinking “oh i just learned this so the reading should be fresh hmmm” or “oh i thought this looked like one i just got but it says master? let me think a second then”
maybe others have more control over themselves but i definitely think im better off having dropped it
No you are right, my intent initially was to use it to remind me to take a bit more time to think about enlightened items rather than failing to burn them due to impatience. But it has the result that you describe.
