Absolutely not. Learning has been to experiment with the things until you form a effective mental model of the thing. Writing things does ab-so-luetely nothing except make you feel good in the moment. Just like listening to a lecture without engaging with the subject matter deeper.
Writing things down is important for organisational persistence of information but that is something else.

- direwolf20 8mo agoWriting code is doing
- coldtea 8mo agoMeans writing code (doing) vs writing documentation / plans / project architecture documents and so on.
- matsemann 8mo agoChoosing what to write down is making a mental model, extracting the core and thinking about the subject. Seems to me you're just a bad note-taker that blindly writes things down, and for some reason decided to use that lack of knowledge in a tirade against me..
