#37: How to Learn

This week, Steve makes progress building a log screen, but not without encountering obstacles. Then the trio dives into a discussion about how we learn. What works for us, what doesn’t, what are good resources? It’s a content-rich episode full of tips, some possibly questionable anecdotes, a dash of philosophy, and so, so many links. It’s a little haphazardly presented, but that’s just our charm!
