I appreciate Dan’s daily blog. I especially enjoy this thoughts from the other day, being a first-principles-first type of learner. What type of learner are you?

“If we rote learn a set of prescriptions, we aren’t thinking for ourselves. Solved tasks will be easy, but any new terrain will feel overwhelming.

On the other hand, if we’re armed with a set of principles, we’ll have a way of thinking that is malleable to the moment and will help us traverse the unknown.” — Dan Cullum, “Principles and Prescriptions”
