Is reading still the best option to reliably syphon large amounts of information into your brain? It seems so antiquated, but I would say it has listening to something or watching a documentary or something still beaten, even if I'm not sure why.

Reading requires you to actively interact with the information in order to consume it. With videos etc, you can just space out

This. There's also pacing.
Audio and video play at a constant rate whether or not you've adequately absorbed the information, and rewinding is much clunkier than rereading or flipping a page.

Yes but reading on an IPad is the best solution of all. You can store thousands of books and all of human learning. You can interact with your reading by making notes and synthesize what you learn by writing papers or making arguments. All on the iPad! The pencil never runs out of ink or goes bad. The 10 hour battery is also easy to keep charged up. So you can carry one iPad around with you, read and study whatever you want, and became enlightened.

I learn best from listening but you’re always at the mercy of what people deem profitable to prepare as an audio/visual presentation. Written language is still by far the largest repository of knowledge and likely always will be.

You can use your AirPods to listen to the lecture while you review the textbook with your MacBook Air and hand write notes with your IPad pencil on your IPad (tm). It’s lit!

Instead of the antiquated option of carrying around a notebook, I use GoodNotes (tm) and write my notes on a digital notebook using a smart pencil “Apple Pencil” (tm)!

I have a kindle that has to be over 10 years old at this point and it's convenient in the sense that you can a shitton of PDFs on it and just carry it around everywhere, but it's kind of clunky to navigate. It's basically only useful for reading straight up text. Trying to look at pictures or underlining something or even trying to navigate the internet is an absolute nightmare.

iPad pro with pencil and a keyboard case makes it very easy to navigate, annotate, write, type, and surf the web on top of it all. Definitely NOT antiquated!

Those gadgets sound amazing! But where do I get all this stuff? Are you seriously telling me I could just go to my local Apple Store and acquire an iPad?

You sure can! Not only can you stop by your local friendly Apple store to buy an IPad Pro or IPad Air or IPad, you can also buy extended warranty on it and a bunch of cool accessories!

learning words and concepts is just another way to skip thinking using memorization and is thus the most efficient way to intake information

No. Watching documentaries or lectures is much more effective.
>>13508076
No it doesnt lol. You can space out just as easily when reading. Videos are intrinsically more interesting making it harder to space out.
>>13508092
Rereading and skipping pages is detrimental to learning.
>>13508162
Yes that is the only purpose of books. To access information that's not present elsewhere.
>>13508437
Yes interacting with knowledgeable people is the best and fastest way to learn.
>>13508478

Studies show that people who read retain more information than those who watch videos containing the same information.
