I don't highlight analysis and commentary. I don't highlight how the author reached a certain conclusion, just the end result.
Some examples of what I am highlighting while reading On Intelligence by Jeff Hawkins:
"This is the neocortex, a thin sheet of neural tissue that envelops most of the older parts of the brain."
"the neocortex is about 2 millimeters thick and has six layers,"
"Stretched flat, the human neocortical sheet is roughly the size of a large dinner napkin. The cortical sheets of other mammals are smaller: the rat’s is the size of a postage stamp; the monkey’s is about the size of a business-letter envelope."
I wish there was a good way to transfer these highlights from my Kindle into Anki flashcards automatically (if someone knows a way to do this, I'm happy to hear from you). It feels like a chore right now, so I often forget to do it.
