I've been using this loop for a while now and I'm impressed at the variety of what I've learned (from cooking to control loops). I'd highly recommend it - the Socratic approach of putting me on the spot to guess is a refreshing break from the habit of just looking things up.

I do something similar. When I have an errand to run, I ask Claude to draft a detailed explanation of something I’m interested in which would be the amount of my driving time when read aloud. Then I have it read it to me aloud on my drive.
