## Progress

| Date | Ch | Hours | Status | Confidence (1-5) | Applied it to |
|------|----|-------|--------|------------------|---------------|
|      |    |       | ☐ read ☐ worked ☐ applied |    |               |
|      |    |       |        |                  |               |
|      |    |       |        |                  |               |

**Confidence** means "could I explain this to a colleague without notes?" — not "did I finish
the pages." A 2 is useful information; record it honestly and put the chapter on the revisit
list.

## Revisit queue (spaced repetition)

| Chapter | +1 week | +1 month | Notes |
|---------|---------|----------|-------|
| ch05    |         |          | vocabulary every later chapter reuses |
| ch08    |         |          | the optimization diagnoses |
| ch11    |         |          | the workflow — apply it, do not just read it |
| ch18    |         |          | score matching → diffusion |

## Deferred with intent

Things skipped on purpose, and what would bring them back.

| Chapter or section | Why deferred | Bring it back when |
|--------------------|--------------|--------------------|
|                    |              |                    |

## Open confusions

Carry these forward — a confusion that survives three chapters is a prerequisite gap, and
`references/prerequisite_map.md` will name the chapter that fills it.

| # | Confusion | First hit (ch) | Resolved? |
|---|-----------|----------------|-----------|
| 1 |           |                |           |

## Applied log

The point of the book. One line per real use.

| Date | What I was doing | Which chapter helped | Outcome |
|------|------------------|----------------------|---------|
|      |                  |                      |         |
