...Incoming burst...

I want to share the methods I have picked up along the way to help me learn new things.

Simple definitions

The following definitions are taken from dictionaries and Wikipedia.

Learning

Learning is the process of acquiring new understanding, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, attitudes, and preferences.

Record / Document / Take notes

Set down in writing or some other permanent form for later reference.

Duplicate / Reproduce (results)

That’s it?

Pretty much:

• find something you are interested in
• make some time to learn it, you can keep it short but regular
• loop: read, experiment, document, reproduce
• take breaks, take your time
