Thanks that seems interesting. What kind of information you are learning with this method and how exactly you go about doing it? I feel brute force learning is very important before diving deep.

I am trying to evolve my personal framework and I feel us starting with "Why" type questions is counterproductive and frustruating. Trying to ask why is something before even asking what is something is poor use of time.

To understand the complex system, I feel going from what to how to why makes much more sense than asking why questions and just getting overwhelmed.

- What Phase Once we know how things work on mechanical level. Asking what each component is build of and what are its parts.

- How Phase This phase is like taking a leap of faith and comitting the steps to memory. At the end of this phase a big picture of how various components work and hang together.

- Why Phase This phase should be reserved for things we want to deeply understand.
