Gabriel Arazas fbc458499e Restructure and update learning-related notes
Well, there is no set boundary what belongs in the hierarchical notebook
and the evergreen notes but I'm starting to lean in combining the two
together with a flat hierarchy. Nonetheless, I was able to make more
insights from separating them so it's worth it.

The learning process is not perfect and just like everything else in life, there are some traps that you could step in.
This could cost you either time or forming bad habits that require unlearning later.
The following is an exhaustive list of things to look out for.
- The [[id:9986bd9e-763e-497e-a35d-ecd0aa93f408][Presence of the material fools students into learning]].
- [[id:9138397a-a965-45e9-97ea-71849e8d4f94][Overlearning]] is a habitual problem of students, thinking they should master the concept holistically before moving on to other topics.
- [[id:5c603e2c-4dae-465e-abb5-12897ad7466d][Tunnel vision]]: learning new things can be impeded from our own experience.
- Working with solutions can be a trap if you focus solely on the steps. + Solution: give time to focus on the bigger picture.
+ Inversely, understanding without the memorization is still bad as [[id:c0e4fb0e-68f2-4db4-8c3e-f5a7845738c3][Understanding comes first from memory]].
