Read and write lots of code, clone existing things as exercises, learn deeply. - John Carmack
Most of my programming career has involved finding something neat, writing my own version to understand it & often throwing it away. - Edward Kmett
I program those "clones" like I read papers: change a core part; redesign it. Gain progress or understanding why it is what it is. - Edward Kmett
To learn deeply in the agent era: clone workflows with frontier models as you'd read papers—predict the core before generating, tweak the reasoning loop, break false paths, and discard the rest; judgment sharpens where your intuition collides with output, taste survives in what you choose to keep. - MathxH Chen(me)
