Episode notes

I resonate so much with what you just said, because I think both of us, if we teleport back into high school, before college, were completely addicted to video games. Reality just didn't provide the same awesome gameplay loop and feedback system that a game did. My channel is basically condensing the grind of becoming a data scientist. That's actually the, how do you say this? That is the thing I am trying to monetize on my channel.

Skye Helfant is a Sophomore Utrecht University student studying Artificial Intelligence. He’s a great video editor and fellow YouTuber creating content documenting his journey into learning how to code. He uses Obsidian and Anki as the main knowledge management apps for his second brain. He’s also my twin brother. In this episode we discuss how he uses Anki and Obsidian for language learning and coding. We discuss the pitfalls most students fall into with their notetaking. We talk what makes a life meaningful, and how to create a vision as a student.
