[thelist] [study] which way is quickest

[Aral Balkan]

It's a definite juggling act -- all I can say is that it keeps getting
easier to increment knowledge since increasingly there's some sort of
standardization or other at play (eg. on the c++ / java syntax for
programming languages, on common tools and workflows for graphic design
programs, etc.) Personally I keep finding the next new technology I learn
easier to learn than the one before. (Case in point, I went from C to -- a
long absence -- to Lingo, ActionScript, Javascript then Python and then PHP.
Having started with HTML it wasn't too big a conceptual link to go to XML.
All this helped recently when I picked up Coldfusion MX. The same with
design -- knowing Photoshop/Illustrator and Quark pretty much gives you a
passport to learning anything else.
