Equating "learning" with "reading a book" has seriously distorted expectations wrt the length of time it takes to become able to perform anything at a basic level.

Although weirdly I think it distorts expectations in both directions. There are a lot of things you can do to learn to perform at a basic level that are *way* easier than reading and applying a book on the subject.

yeah. books are an lossy way of transmitting information. it just happens that they scale much better than in-person trainings, so the civilisation switched to using them a lot. (workshops seem to be like the worst of both worlds)

Depends on your class. Lazy working class love workshops, especially if they give certificates. Certificates are intellectual fraud.
