For technical topics, like an AWS service or a new programming framework, I dive right into a project. If it's personal, I create a new app or tool. If it's for work, I review code and start contributing right away. For other topics, I pick a stellar piece of content to lean on. It can be a book, but it can also be a video primer or an introductory article. Then down the rabbit hole I go, researching terms and saving other content I need to understand the subject matter. For physical activities, like baking or fixing hardware, I prefer video so I get the nuance or where things go or how the output of each step feels like.
