When was the last time you felt like you learned something?

When was the last time you felt like you learned something?
Not "oh yeah, that's a neat fact" that you forget a few minutes later, but really feel like you've learned something, no matter how small.
Bonus points: What did you learn?

I'm studying for an exam to become an EU civil servant, called the #EPSO, so I am relearning all the EU Law stuff from my Bachelors Degree. I am really glad I held onto my books from those days. It's much easier to re-learn something you once knew when you still have some physical things to hold onto. (when it comes to books I may have a hoarding problem)
I'm also learning how to play the #BassGuitar. -

@mayintoronto I think this is also a big factor with languages.
I speak a handful, but they regress when I am not actively using them. That said, every time I rededicate myself to one of them, they come back pretty fast. Which makes me feel less bad about phases where I neglect one of them. I know the neural pathways can be reactivated.

I had a friend send me this link for an American podcast that discussed the significance of Carney's Davos speech and included a lot of context for each phrase he used. I was painting some trim while listening and several times had to stop and think, and occasionally replay a section.The jury is still out on whether this speech will have real impact in terms of actual action, but it was a remarkable moment at a very conservative event.

@paulbusch Idk. He gave this speech, then doesn't do anything about the humanitarian crisis in Cuba, and puts money down for 14 more US F-35s.
His actions aren't reflecting that speech.
