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

"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.

notes are just additional storage for your thoughts
- beware of various traps with note-taking;
some people like to take note for the sake of taking note;
some may even get into addiction to optimization as [[id:b62c61f1-ee12-4bd9-b59a-ec6eafe29f38][Unnecessary optimizations cripple progress]]
