In fact, one might suspect that you're more likely to find moderately gifted individuals at the top levels of success than very talented ones.
From the micro point of view, a talented individual has a greater a priori probability of reaching a high level of success than a moderately gifted one. However, from the macro point of view of the entire society, the probability of finding moderately gifted individuals at the top levels of success is greater than that of finding there very talented ones, because moderately gifted people are much more numerous and, with the help of luck, have globally a statistical advantage to reach a great success, in spite of their lower individual a priori probability.
Most of the time, an element's containing block is its parent, but not always.

As a side note, the study also says that short afternoon naps increased productivity.
That said, perhaps the alluring part was gathering data on one's self.
Now compare that to your own experiences of attempting to control hunks of flesh on disintegrating bones.
Thus any simplification in the form of "just do it, it's your choice" motto fails to account for these very real biological constraints.
To summarize, it states:
"The FBM asserts that for a person to perform a target behavior, he or she must (1) be sufficiently motivated, (2) have the ability to perform the behavior, and (3) be triggered to perform the behavior."
The author then makes the case that since any attempts to modify the motivation level of an agent is hard and often fails, one can focus on modifying the ability of a task, thus making it easier for the agent to perform.
Let's say you want to start flossing your teeth, following the FBM, you can modify the required ability to perform the task by saying "I only need to floss one tooth." By doing so, you compensate for your low motivation and increase the likelihood of doing it.

I installed AnkiConnect add-on which allows me to communicate with Anki over a simple HTTP API and complimented it with a CLI tool which automatically fetches the audio or whatever is needed to fill in the fields for the card and adds it to Anki.
So all you have to do is open the terminal and write "add [word]". And the magic happens:
1. A card which the agent is prompted to pronounce the word, followed by the correct pronunciation.
2. A card which the agent is prompted to write down the word after hearing the pronunciation.
3. A card which requests a random example sentence featuring the word, served by a local server. (https://i.imgur.com/11E3IqE.png)
The last card is the most helpful, it provides comprehensible input in the form of unique sentences that uses that word, so you get acquainted with the word's collocations, the context in which it is used and etc.
"MaNa: I would say that clearly the best aspect of its game is the unit control. In all of the games when we had a similar unit count, AlphaStar came victorious. The worst aspect from the few games that we were able to play was its stubbornness to tech up. It was so convinced to win with basic units that it barely made anything else and eventually in the exhibition match that did not work out. There weren’t many crucial decision making moments so I would say its mechanics were the reason for victory."
I think it is fair to accept the fact that we do _not_ have the full privileges of the system, and sometimes what we want to do gets overridden by other primal behaviors.
I personally use successive relearning, sometimes also referred to as retrieval-based learning, it's not a note-taking technique per se, but more of a framework on how to learn/study in a way that maximizes retention and meaningful learning.
If anyone's interested in it, here are some resources:

From the micro point of view, a talented individual has a greater a priori probability to reach a high level of success than a moderately gifted one.
On the other hand, from the macro point of view of the entire society, the probability to find moderately gifted individuals at the top levels of success is greater than that of finding there very talented ones, because moderately gifted people are much more numerous and, with the help of luck, have - globally - a statistical advantage to reach a great success, in spite of their lower individual a priori probability.
1. Creates an anki card with basic word -> definition or image
2. Creates an anki card with writing exercise for the word
3. Creates an anki card with pronunciation exercise for the word (fetches audio file on fly)
4. Creates an anki card featuring a dynamic cloze exercise (fetches 250 example sentences for the word, stores it in a database, serves a random one each time an anki card requests it, a custom-made card (in Anki) hides the word in the sentence, provides the ability to request a new sentence or reveal a letter as a hint)
And adds these cards to a specified deck. It's proved very useful so far.
However, soon my misconception about how memory works made itself very clear.
Even though I made hundreds of cards regarding a book, when we started talking about it, I quickly realized that all of that information that I so meticulously added to Anki and studied was not available to me.
It was because I needed my retrieval cues, the questions I've used to create Anki cards, and I couldn't access the information I had in my brain without them.
It’s a simple yet powerful framework that you can use to gain a better understanding of your behaviors.

- due to the length of the stimulus text, difference could be related to issues of navigation within the document
- scrolling as it's imposing a spatial instability which may negatively affect the reader’s mental representation of the text and, by implication, comprehension
- disrupted mental maps of the text in digital group, which may be reflected in poorer understanding and ultimately poorer recall of presented material
- the dual-task involved in switching between two windows displayed on the same computer screen is likely to present additional cognitive challenges to the reader (one displaying the text to be read, the other displaying the questions to be answered)
- the common perception of digital screen presentation as an information source intended for shallow messages may reduce the mobilization of cognitive resources
- LCD computer screens like the ones used in this study are known to cause visual fatigue due to their emitting light. In contrast, ebook technologies based on electronic ink, such as Kindle and Koboo, are merely reflecting light
In the broadest sense, there are two types of things in the world: things that tend toward (or cluster around) some kind of “natural” value, and things that don’t.
Often times, you are not briefed on the distribution of the graph which the very "average" is being derived from, viscerally it is being surmised that it follows a “Gaussian” distribution by the patient which then makes significant medical decisions based on such bits of information.
Therefore, I'd advise caution for those who'd base their medical decisions on arbitrary "averages", instead you are much better off if you were to take a look at the graph to see if the word "average" carries any meaning at all in such distributions.
Thank you for your input, I'll word it more accurately.
- He just possibly infected his whole digestive system. Not just small intestine, but stomach
as well. Furthermore, AAV can potentially exhibit transcytosis through epithelial layers,
suggesting that it's possible the virus infected more than just his digestive system.
- He did not determine an appropriate dose, and so he likely infected with a HUGE genetic
payload. Overexpression with AAV can kill infected cells, which means this man is risking
his digestive lining.
- Neither the promoter nor the encoded protein itself are human, potentially risking
(possibly severe) autoimmune reaction.
- There are few/no long-term studies on effects of AAV integration and expression in humans.
There is indeed evidence that AAV increases risk of cancer, almost certainly in a dose-
dependent manner.
- AAVs could integrate randomly into your genome in low frequencies (0.1% to 1%), meaning that they could just by
chance disrupt a gene you really need to not get cancer.
It goes as far as to suggest that laziness, boredom and the particulars of the sort do not exist.
Such big claims are supported by anecdotal stories, and occasional quotes from psychology professors, all convoluted in order to do say one thing: just do it.
Instead of analyzing the traits of successful people, we can devise and create frameworks which would help direct our efforts in an efficient manner to produce real value.
Such methods of learning the language would make you a practitioner of the Skill-Building Hypothesis in your SLA (Second Language Acquisition) journey. Often which methodology to follow is decided unknowingly by the L2 learners, since the sources they utilize often dictate the methodology.
I believe it'd be my duty to inform you there's also a competing theory in the SLA field that you may fancy, called the Comprehensible Input Theory.
Thus, I would conclude that any activity, be it note taking or a similar endeavor, if proves to be disturbing the reading fluency of the agent, it could result in unintended secondary consequences, as such to foster an aversion to reading, supported by the deduction in reading pleasure and comprehension.
At the end, the agent could find itself spending less time reading, the main culprit being the very methods which it sought to maximize reading productivity, as such methods proved to be destructive for its reading fluency.
And the reason may not be in the realm of misogynist inclinations depicted at high levels of government, it may be the case on average women choose professions that pay less.
We know that men are more likely to go into “nerdy” professions such as math or engineering, whereas women are more likely to go into the caring professions and to spend more time looking after children [0].

As you try to adapt your website to smaller and smaller screens, font sizes become a problem, regardless of the units you put in use.
The reason why is that as the grid items' dimensions change, text that it occupies overflow, or for that matter, leaves a noticeable space which has to be repaired.
In the light of that, I resort to certain techniques such as to increase the font size when the text of the grid item fails to occupy semi-subjective required space for it to be not considered 'awkward', as the unused space is pushing down the next content even further than one would prefer.
This concludes with an unnatural amount of media queries, created, at certain breakpoints, especially for font sizes.
I am open to any feedback on this.
