🎀 Highlights

There's a concept in education known as the "T-shaped skillset". It says you should aim to have deep expertise in one area (the vertical bar of the "T") and know atleast a little about a wide range of topics
a more fluid alternative known as the "speedo-shaped skillset." This approach emphasizes deep expertise in one area while allowing for a broad range of skills, resulting in a more dynamic and adaptable learning path.
