I’ve learned through a never-ending process of building mental models, proving them to be wrong, and then adjusting those models to reflect new knowledge.
Is that not the definition of learning? It sounds weird to me to explain it redundantly like this, akin to: “I’ve walked 10 steps forward through a process of my neurons firing signals which cause contractions in the muscles of my body in a particular rhythmic way”
Very nice blogpost, thank you!
But this one part really grinds my gears:

Or am I misunderstanding something?
Cheers
