Gabriel Arazas edc686c25c Update wiki on various topics
This update is too large, I made too many notes on stuff. Nonetheless,
it is very nice to see progress. I've made note revisions on the
following topics:

- Learning
- Writing
- Various Linux-related stuff

I've yet to start learning illustration but I'll be starting tomorrow
for an update how do I keep in mind with those writings. There are still
a lot of things to be processed from the backlog with yet more notes on
learning but I keep having those perspectives whenever I practice so
ehhh... Better have those than nothing?

Furthermore, I've also updated the timestamp format. It is pretty simple
to update all of the notes with a couple of `sed` calls.

Aaaand, I've also changed the way how the assets stored with the folders
only leaving it up for the generated files instead of enforcing it on
every note. I create more visual aids and managing them is a pain for
each note. This restructuring frees me of that burden.

Deliberate practice

Unlike regular practice that involves mindless repetitions, deliberate practice involves purposeful sessions. Each session aims to improve performance and increase the skill ceiling of the practitioner.

To put it simply, deliberate practice involves getting out of comfort zone and enforces discipline. For example, trying yourself to solve some hard mathematical problems or competitive programming for the first time with a mentor.

You can also Refer to advanced resources when skill-building for a solid short-term goal. With it, identify the top performers in the field and try to make a conclusion on how do they get so far.

The most important component of this practice is feedback. Find a platform to publish your work or to apply your practice — e.g., an online forum, a local event, a contest/competition. roam:Communicate with others as a way to learn.

You can also put yourself in their shoes as a newcomer. Try to tackle a difficult problem, Diving head-first with a difficult problem is a good indicator of progress. Beware, Diving head-first into a difficult problem makes a bad start.
