alt Hacker News> I learned about this technique in 2007, then tried writing it up in 2015. I realized that I didn’t understand it enough to be able to explain it. I studied it off and on in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2022, 2024, and 2026. I abandoned and restarted this page many times. And by 2026 I think I understand it well enough to write this page.
Outstanding.
I have an appreciation for people who keep going. Sometimes it doesn't really matter how long it takes you to learn something. I've found it's more valuable to see what you'd do with that knowledge.
