This is not true, 99% is very exaggerated claim, but yeah you can learn 50-60% of the field at a surface level in months rather than years.
replyBut you can have a surface level understanding of mathematical topics as well, ofc some topics might require deeper understanding, but that's true for both.
Any claims of being able to learn 99% of computing in a just 4 weeks even at surface level, is greatly underestimating your own knowledge built over the years perhaps, or perhaps underestimating your own ignorance.
The claim isn’t knowing 99% of the field but that 99% of topics are ones you could do a quick-and-dirty crash course and come out with some understanding.
