Which one is more ideal /sci/? Let me give an example:
1. (PERSONAL) You study 4 topics during the summer, reading textbooks, completing exercises until you're confident in your grasp of the subjects. Note that only you are aware of your grasp.
2. (DEMONSTRABLE) You study 1-2 topics during the summer, but program an algorithm that demonstrates your competency in one of the topics, showing others your grasp and further enhancing your own. Note that you now do not study the other 2-3 subjects you could have.
What do you guys think?
knowledge you never use is by definition useless

What if those topics you don't study are indeed relevant to your field? Suppose you will one day use all knowledge of the aforementioned subjects
>>9049497
Personal knowledge has it limitations. You are subject to your own delusions and misunderstandings.
>>9049510
>What if those topics you don't study are indeed relevant to your field?
then you should learn them, or find someone who knows them
>>9049512
That's not the question anon.

You need to have a goal in mind. Decide if that goal needs you to demonstrate your abilities more.
There are various ways to do this depending on what your field is:
> Get a certification if you are trying to be a crane operator or something
> Make friends with someone reputable who can be a reference
> Have a personal blog to post about relevant things you do that demonstrate your skills
> Be a neet and do whatever you want

>That's not the question anon.
But the question was
>What if those topics you don't study are indeed relevant to your field?

Regarding the OP he means
>>9049560
OP here, let me rephrase in light of your point. Suppose all subjects you will have to learn eventually. Would it be a better use of time to learn all 4 during the summer, or learn 2 very well and be able to demonstrate your knowledge

just learn them as you need them
why are there always at least a few threads about iq/intel on sci?
>>9049590
This isn't about IQ, so I don't understand that bit, and intelligence is a very interesting subject. Being predominantly autistic, I can only assume the typical /sci/ lurker is looking for a way of "optimizing" his cognitive capacity/function, hence the threads.
