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.

Ignorance is better than misinformation

  • the lack of knowledge can make clearer conclusions since we don't have any misunderstandings to clear up first; we tend to be more open with the topic
  • but it doesn't mean most of the things we learn are from zero knowledge, We are more associative than structured, we try to understand the new by comparing them with the familiar things; if any, there's a pinch of prerequisite knowledge we already possess
  • however, being ignorant can also mean no actions nor thinking will occur when discussing a topic; at times, Being misinformed is better than being ignorant; but then again, we are more vulnerable to misinformation
