# [[Linking Your Thinking 14 - Doing It in Public]] ## Details Conference:: [[Linking Your Thinking]] Date:: [[2024-09-19]] Length:: 60-90 minutes ## Abstract Learning in public is a fundamental subversion of how most of us learn to learn. Instead of waiting until the end to show off the resulting work, learning in public shows the process of creating it. This means we can make mistakes freely, learn faster than ever with feedback from others, learn the right things, and really enjoy the process rather than rushing to the finish line.   In this talk, you'll learn practical tips and public examples of how to learn everything from Kubernetes to chaos engineering to speaking Dutch, how to create your own personal wiki that establishes you as a thought leader in any field, and how to get so good they can't ignore you--all by learning in public. ## Structure - Introduction - What is Observability? - How is this related to thinking? - Why do it in public? - How can you do it in public? - Microlearning - sprints - Systematising your learning - instrumenting - Longform learning - iterating - Automating your learning - automating - Building a community - refactoring - When to learn in private - The cost of not doing it in public - October 2022: Zsolt mentions Emergence - November 2022: I submit an abstract for a talk on Emergence while I read the book - December 2022: Process highlights into abstract notes - February 2023: My talk gets accepted; I take more notes! 😅 - April 2023: Video - Emergent note taking - April 2023: Talk - Emergent load testing (KubeCon EU) - June 2023: Video - Continuous note-taking - June 2023: Talk - Lost Art of Taking Good Notes (EuroStar) - October 2023: Talk - Emergent load testing (TestCon EU) - February 2024: 2 videos - learning in public, writing a book - March 2024: Talk + video - Doing It In Public (PKM Summit) - September 2024: Now ## The presentation [nicole.to/lyt14](https://nicole.to/lyt14)
