(I&#x27;m the post&#x27;s author.)<p>I fully agree with you: the title is a sound byte and somewhat imprecise. Creating good titles has been an ongoing struggle for me. As an engineer, I want to be precise; as a writer, I want more readers. What I&#x27;ve learned over time is that something like &quot;The 100-hour rule&quot; performs way better than something like &quot;the speed of knowledge acquisition decelerates rapidly.&quot;<p>Hopefully the post&#x27;s gist is clear: it takes a long time to become a true expert&#x2F;master, but much less time to surpass everyone who has zero knowledge about a field.
