Ask HN: How do you learn a new topic/domain
Would like to hear strategies you use to:
- create a learning plan on the topic that you know nothing about.
- tools you use to synthesize the learning; like a “lab notebook”, diary or a log. What is it’s structure.
- how do you incorporate feedback loops.
- anything else
- dmfdmf 8y agoIf you are trying to pickup a lot of new, unfamiliar terminology, concepts, acronyms, etc. you might look into Anki which is a computerized flash card system. It won't help you with the planning or strategy but spaced repetition might help you commit the new knowledge to memory faster once you have a plan of attack.
