i really hope it will be after work/study time, about 6 o'clock in the evening

If Saturdays are OK with you - then you can make it.

The recording idea is nice, looking forward to "see" you :)

the lecture was great! it was unusual to listen it in english, but i've understand the major objectives of the lecture. maybe it needed one more break cause 4 hours was literally a pain in the {inserg body_part here}... :D

rest of the feedback you heard personaly


but I am sorry that there was some trolling on you, I hears jokes on you and laughing when you accidentaly shackled. Even smart people can be assholes :| Sorry aqbout that.

oh, i'm wondering who take some notes during the lessons and how they did it.

4 hours? Time flies, if you're a teacher... My throat still hurts a bit, but it is getting better :-)

Hmm.. I think I know which moments you refer to - I hit the table with my hand accidentally; plus that annoying fly showed up at the wrong time too (by the way, shortly after I opened the doors - it left :-)

Various things happen in classes, sometimes the chalk breaks, sometimes I get dust all over my pants, sometimes the sponge falls out of my hand and I'm trying to recover it by defying gravity in various artistic and non-standard methods... :-)

I don't think those folks were laughing at me, my guess is that they were laughing at the situation itself. I don't see anything wrong with that and I felt 0% offended.

Thanks for the suggestion, it will indeed be a great idea to take a look at the notes people took - that material can be used as an example of how things can be optimized (or how there is nothing to do, for the notes are already optimal).

Good lecture. The best thing I heard was probably parsing input into english, should try it more often.

I was really waiting for some super-miracle ideas about taking notes, but I guess those aren't known yet. %)

Also, could you post a couple of pages of your own notebooks, so we can see what the knowledge looks like in practice?

Cheers.

Yeah, on-the-fly translations are very very efficient. Don't forget to read the original article on 'mnemonic chains' (available on this site).

Super-miraculous tips weren't there, nor there will be any - and that is good news! It means that all the proposed methods are simple and obvious - therefore it doesn't take a genius to implement them. In other words - you already have everything you need to get started.

One of the most useful design principles is KISS - "keep it short, simple"; that's what I tried to do with the rite.


Yes, I will include samples of my notes; I will also provide the "long version" of the "write right rite", as well as an optimized version which applies the rite to itself, as well as a super-optimized version that applies the previously self-applied rite to itself ;-) It looks like this: 25 pages, 4 pages, 1 page. You'll see yourself, you can reconstruct the entire lecture from that single page. Awesome!

hi!
unfotunately i wasn't able to assist at the lecture, but i really would like to have and read the "notes" of the "write right rite".

hope that i'll have another chance to be at this lecure...

Leonid, I haven't thought about giving this lecture again (probably because doing the same thing twice is less fun?), but the good news is:
- we've got it on video, I am now processing the material and I'll publish it online as soon as I'm done;
- the guide itself will be posted after the video is made available.


If more people ask about a real lecture, then I will think about it. I guess it won't be a problem, as long as I won't be talking to just 5 people :-)


In any case, you can probably attend the next special lecture, it is called "reverse engineering love" (title may change, but the idea is clear).
