Am I the only one that thinks 90 minutes a day is horribly inadequate? Personally, I aim for something like 8 hours... Is this just because the book was written

Am I the only one that thinks 90 minutes a day is horribly inadequate? Personally, I aim for something like 8 hours... Is this just because the book was written a hundred years ago and there wasn't that much to learn back then?
- lilsunnybee 14y agoHow do you have time for anything else?
- psionski 14y agoEight hours for work, eight hours for reading and learning, eight hours for sleep and commute. I relax on the weekends - sleep a bit more, play some games, go out with friends, etc. I guess I'm just a boring person...
- peterwwillis 14y agoIt's only boring if it's boring to you. But if you're spending eight hours on reading without any time spent reflecting on it, it's just words in your head.
- psionski 14y ago"Boring" would be the last thing I'd call it, but you have to admit - it's a pretty short list. It depends mostly on what I'm reading, if I'm reading a math textbook I usually do more "reflecting" than actual reading, I create small programs like imaginary number calculators, function plotters, etc. that let me play with the thing I'm reading about. With programming books I always try to write something, but make it something different than the examples in the book. Sometimes I wander off to Google and then find out the thing I needed was covered in the next chapter, but you get the idea :) I usually read fiction only before I go to bed, so when I'm finished reading I have some quiet time. Your brain gets really weird right before you fall asleep, but I guess at least it's something.
