Deep learning

When you peg someone with a strap on in a way that is deeply uncomfortable but for some reason you think if you keep doing it you might learn to like it. Everyone else has been “deep learning” and has said how much better it is than “regular learning”, however later on you discover that nobody was doing regular learning properly either and were instead just using rusty nails...

"The children were free to explore, went to movies if they wished, could spend the day skateboarding, reading, or doing science experiments like making potato guns or rockets. Sometimes they spent prolonged hours online or at the library researching their current obsession and over the course of several years all became rogue learners, and eventually each one a success in a wide variety of fields. None of them had a degree, or even a high school diploma."
