MnemoScience
Science texts, in your memory.
Pick a field, then a source, and put the texts you want in memory. Every memory ends with a line naming its source, its date and its licence. MnemoScience copies texts from their sources. It does not check or rewrite them.
The cartridge id is @mnemosyne-plugins/mnemo-science. Its code lives at
Mnemosyne-OS/MnemoScience.
Fields and sources
The fields are Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, Astronomy and History of science. Each field lists its sources:
| Source | What it is | Languages | Licence |
|---|---|---|---|
| OpenStax | A textbook, module by module | English | Per book, read from the book file |
| Wikipedia | Pages of a category | English, French, Spanish | CC BY-SA 4.0 |
| PlanetMath | A mathematics encyclopedia, by class of the Mathematics Subject Classification | English | CC BY-SA 3.0 |
| MacTutor | Biographies of mathematicians | English | CC BY-SA 4.0 |
| OEIS | Integer sequences, by search | English | CC BY-SA 4.0 |
| arXiv | Preprint abstracts, newest first | English | Per article, not given by the arXiv API |
PlanetMath stopped its updates: most of its repositories were last changed in 2018. PlanetMath and the OpenStax repository dates go through GitHub, which allows 60 requests an hour without an account.
Put texts in memory
- Click a field tile, then a source.
- Use Filter this list, or search the OEIS by words, terms or A-number.
- Press Put in memory on one entry, or put the whole list in.
- Stop stops a long run. What was written stays, and the next press resumes at the next entry.
See the source opens the source's own website. To ask a question in your own words, open the chat and tick the field under Knowledge in its scope.
Where your data goes
- A copy of each text is kept in your knowledge folder. On the first text, MnemoScience asks you to choose that folder. Open the folder shows it.
- Each text enters MnemoScience's own vault, one memory pack per field.
For agents
| Action | Effect | What it does |
|---|---|---|
status | read | The screen, the import running, every list in memory |
sources | read | The fields and their sources, with licences and sizes |
open | write | A field or a source's screen, or the home screen |
back | write | One screen up |
openSite | write | The source's own website, in the browser |
stop | write | Stops the import running |
Agents navigate. Putting texts in memory stays the person's gesture: open the source, then the person picks the entries.
Voice examples: "show physics", "show Wikipedia in chemistry", "show the astronomy textbook", "show the OEIS sequences".
