I am really fascianted by this topic. Like i want to learn about lot of stuff that I couldnt easily and couldnt make time for and also learn critical thinking as well. But i feel llms cant help to learn properly.

From many research paper i skimmed ( without llm, from youtube videos though :p) i understand its the friction of not understanding and then getting +/- feedback faster with lots of iteration helps us learn fast. But for knowledge work it seems very hard as there isnt any verifier that can give me the mental mode that will evolve/extend my current mental model.

One feedback mechanism can be testing myself on the topic but software engineering related tasks are pretty hard to do without expermiemnt and experience.

Silly question, if we believe the concept of evolution then we evolved to write by hands to materialize our thoughts. But as in some future we might not have paper to write on ( though we have writeable devices)

this gives me a question like when would our brain think its time to evolve from handwritting to typing and then typing to Brain computer interface so that we can write at the speed of thought?

Learning java is not that hard. I really love this language with all its quirks. so i guess i will be little biased here but its my fault not to represent the information in such a way that it can be more intuitive.

sorry as UI was not optimized enough for mobile but my intention was to show the adventure of writing and learning more about java

I completed 100 Days of Java and ended up and it took me roughly 5 years.

Made an interactive map/index of the posts, linked by related topics. I made it to make the series easier to browse by concept instead of only by day number.

I work sometimes in frontend and mostly in backend but I cant still comprehend why are we going backwards. shouldnt the websites be so optimized that they should be able to run in normal pc / smartphone rather than s23 is failing to load it. I guess at least bigger companies have that kind of resource for optimization but still not doing it why?

can it be like perceiving the value is higher making your taste as good as it is the value of it? can it be a placebo effect?
