Gabriel Arazas b088086b06 Merge evergreen notes into the notebook
Now, it's all under the notebook umbrella. Seems to be appropriate as it
is just my notes after all.

I also updated some notes from there. I didn't keep track of what it is
this time. Something about more learning notes extracted from my
"Learning how to learn" course notes and then some. Lack of time and
hurriness just makes it difficult to track but it should be under
version control already.

Learning modes

While there are many ways to describe the state of memory, we'll use two: focused and diffused mode.

  • Focused mode is when we intensely use our mental capacity to do a task. — e.g., solving a math problem, completing a coding competition problem set, cooking a new meal, Writing, Illustration, Note-taking.
  • Diffused mode is the relaxed state of our mind. It often happens when we take a break, walk outside, and give in to guilty pleasures.

Despite the conception our brain is working whenever we focus, our brain is working all day.
