Anki 24.04 beta/RC

[DerIshmaelite]

@dae Also, how do I know if the optimiser ignores all reviews before a date I set?

Here is a deck from my collection and its review count and how they are distributed

I have over 16k reviews for that deck but there was a large period where I had to stop reviewing from that deck.

i then pressed FORGET.

So that is about 9k reviews before that happened tand 7k reviews after that (current period).

The date of the start off the current period is precisely the 01.02.2024

But I dont see see any changes.

I tried to use the preset query : "deck name " -is:new -is:suspended, also

And I know that there must be a change because i did my reviews of that deck in a pretty braindead way (i set the max interval to a very low 2d before FSRS came along) and that has skewed FSRS for me, so I had to start all over.

I need to know that FSRS will not skew my reviews of those cards again after having pressed forget. So how can I find that out?

Anki 24.04 beta/RC

Yeah, but I don’t see any changes when I click “Optimize”. The first 4 parameters don’t change. EDIT: here’s a recording: Anki Test - Album on Imgur. There is a small change: the color of numbers turns from gray to black, but the numbers themselves don’t change. The number of reviews is slightly above 400, maybe 420 or so.

Can you take a look at this as well? Watch the attached video

@Expertium

Yeah, but I don’t see any changes when I click “Optimize”. The first 4 parameters don’t change.

You’ll need to ask @L.M.Sherlock (and perhaps provide the deck in question so he can reproduce the issue), as this is handled in the FSRS crate.

@Maaxim

after start up and the issue would resolve it self after a restart,

If you start Anki from a terminal, perhaps it will print something that gives a hint as to the error.

@DerIshmaelite

Also, how do I know if the optimiser ignores all reviews before a date I set?

It will run faster. If it tells you the parameters are already optimal, it can’t improve them further with the reduced number of reviews.

[L.M.Sherlock]

Oops. Something weird happen. In my reproduction, the bug is different:

Not only the first four parameters, but also the rest, are all changed.

[Expertium]

Well, I can’t help you with that. I’m using Windows 10, that’s the only helpful piece of info I can think of.

[Aleksej]

If the “FSRS parameters” field is focused when clicking Optimize, “The FSRS parameters currently appear to be optimal.” does not appear.

Fix alert not appearing when FSRS parameters input is focused

[dae]

Maybe mpv is indeed too old in your Linux distro?

[XXHK]

I’ve installed the new copy, but the Full Sync window flashes, i.e. I can’t choose to upload/download anymore. And the menu of home screen cann’t be clicked.

Windows 11, Anki qt6 version.

[Maaxim]

I use manjaro which is a fork of arch so I’m always up to date(for better or worse, mostly worse). I’ve seen a few others with this same issue after searching(various releases) and they all use uinix which makes me think this is a linux problem not an anki problem, so I’ll try debugging. Thanks for your time

[wahib]

does this beta has FIXED THAT “STUCKING AT PROCESSING” ISSUE

(after editing a card in browser window)

which i reported few months back on this forum ?

[NameLessGO]

Yes, please try the beta and let us know if it helps

[L.M.Sherlock]

Feat/custom training loop & benchmark API & fix BatchShuffledDataloaderIterator next() call get() twice.

I implement the custom training loop in FSRS-rs v0.5.0. In this version, the accuracy of FSRS-rs is no longer lagging behind the PyTorch version.

I hope we can merge it into Anki 24.04 and make it stable.

[Aleksej]

I’ve been using Limit New by Young GitHub - lune-stone/anki-addon-limit-new-by-young: An add-on for Anki that can aid in maintaining a stable and efficient daily workload., which changes the New cards/day limits for Today only. And in two (but not all) of the decks where it sets a limit equal to the number of introduced cards (which are currently either learn+review or only review), Anki lets me learn 1 card (edit:) every time the add-on resets the Today only limit.

maxNewCardsPerDay is the Preset limit.
introduced_today is what introduced:1 shows.
newLimit is what the add-on puts into Today only.

The parent deck still gets 1 new card open:

maxNewCardsPerDay: 16
introduced_today: 20
newLimit: 20

A child deck still gets 1 new card open:

maxNewCardsPerDay: 16
introduced_today: 13
newLimit: 13

Another child deck, with 1 card introduced, always has 0 open:

maxNewCardsPerDay: 16
introduced_today: 1
newLimit: 1

Another child deck, with no cards introduced, always has 0 open:

maxNewCardsPerDay: 16
introduced_today: 0
newLimit: 0

It would seem that introduced_today = newLimit should make 0 new cards available, but no matter how many cards I introduce, after the add-on sets Today only to introduced_today, Anki lets me introduce one more.

[wahib]

sure let me use this for few days.
surely gonna give you feedback
using anki older version because of this BUG

now i will tell you BUG got fixed or not/

THANKYOU TEAM!

[dae]

Can you reproduce the problem without any add-ons active?

[Expertium]

Here is a test .apkg file with my cards (they are empty, no personal info, only review history): Test.apkg - Google Drive
I would appreciate if people did the following:

1. Download it and open it in Anki.
2. Go to “Optimize FSRS parameters”, click “Optimize” and write down (or record using some screen capturing software) what happens. Make sure that it’s the only deck in the preset.
3. Report the results to @L.M.Sherlock.

[Expertium]

I just noticed that it says (used by 6 decks). You need to make sure that this is the only deck in the preset.
EDIT: maybe it counts empty parent decks.
