How are you guys managing to consistently learn new things?
It's been incredibly hard to learn new things (not in the literal sense).
With the advent of LLMs and coding agents, it's become easier to get a grasp of something new—a new language, a new framework, a new tool.
But actually learning how these work, actually grasping the inner workings and knowing the how and why, is becoming more and more distant.
We all are working at a higher level of abstraction, which gives us a false feeling of competence.
I'm feeling very demotivated about learning new things. I start and pause, stop building new projects, stop learning new languages, stop learning system design, DSA, and everything else. Not because I don't feel they're important, but because I'm feeling utterly demotivated.
Do you guys also deal with this? If so, give me some advice on how to manage this.
