This reminded me of: "we live in such a time of plenty with respect to things we can learn that it is important to make conscious choices about what not to learn".

That's a great quote, where did it come from?

My apologies. I now see that it might look like a quote. I was trying to capture the sense of an HN submission (or perhaps it was some posts - I can't seem to find it now) from a few days ago that was discussing the abundance of opportunity we have these days for learning pretty much anything we might be interested in. Years ago I would make weekly trips to the local university to read journals and drop a dime per page to copy articles of interest on the library's photocopier. The internet existed but was limited to universities etc.

Well, the quote is attributed to you!

I've been seeing this more and more as people and whole organizations feel compelled to learn everything that comes their way.

It's tech FOMO!
