Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link David Didau's post on whether easy or hard learning works better. One commenter cites it for the research view that struggle, not enjoyment, is what enables learning.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
What Hacker News says?
The paradox is that if you are enjoying your lessons then you are not learning effectively "The research seems to suggest it’s the struggle that enables us to learn." https://learningspy.co.uk/learning/learning-easy-hard/
