My only disagreement is with the general principle implied here - I have successfully built understanding through rote memorization in the past. At the time, I hated it and it felt useless, but something was happening in the background of the mind that I didn&#39;t appreciate until later, and it ended up being useful. Similarly to my PhD time - I learned tons of tacit knowledge simply through close association with my adviser, much of it hard to put into words.</p><p>Not claiming that this is happening for you here (how would I know?), nor that it&#39;s always an efficient route (clearly not - your experience here is a counterexample). But I think that a broader idea of what learning is would have been a useful perspective for younger me, so I figured I&#39;d broadcast it a bit on the coattails of your post.</p>

@Moon@shitposter.club they started using AI

@Moon@shitposter.club It's a couple of things I think. SEO getting really advanced and Google basically declaring it a lost war, them silently rewriting precise queries to "natural language" equivalents because they're optimizing for the female modality of using search engines by asking them full sentence questions, political censorship and DMCA stuff purging the edges of the index, and deliberately downranking pages which aren't "modern" relative to a Google imposed definition of it.
