This.

Maybe reading a few on Blinkist initially but all one really needs:

- is repeatedly trying (even on a side project)

- first principles thinking/common sense

Why? Because:

- all those books are repetitive

- we learn faster by doing

- problems a given project faces at a given time are highly situational

Yeah I really like the idea of Blinkist but I never tried it. Have you?
Very ironic response given the tone of this thread.

How many opinions (err, books) will you need before you just try it yourself?

Wat?

I am perfectly content with my current learning strategy, it got me this far in life. However I'm open to new things, and I enjoy reading people's open opinions first. Even if I were to try it myself, I may have a different experience depending on my expectations of it.
