Cognitive endurance: 6/12 poms

Meta

Decided to do the Deep Practice book plus Deep Structure book (my own spin on the deep practice book approach applied to the foundations of the subject itself, somewhat similar to the description given in Nielsen’s essay on this, but here applied to all of the subject rather than just one proof) for geometry as presented in Jacobs.

Also decided to split my 4.5 hours/9 poms of programming into 3 hours for boot.dev, webdev, that whole track, and 1.5 hours/3 poms for my longer-running pedagogical/educational/academic project (I don’t even know what to call it, it’s both so clearly the thing to do and yet the implications are so staggering I still find it hard to believe that’s it’s just sitting right there, that someone hasn’t done it yet in spite of it being so obvious, that I’m the person among billiong to whom it has fallen to do this, that I get to do it? what? really?).

Immediately felt a sense of relief when deciding this; seems that the prior allocation was too much, pushed/kinda forced; and this is more natural/organic/right.
