The problem I have with lists like this is that they tend not to stick in your mind precisely because they are presented as a list. In my opinion, lists are just about the worst way to learn things from especially if there's no prose to guide you from one item to the next. Now I know that the list you linked just functions as a reference of sorts so I'm going to ask you, is there a hyperlink version of that page or a book version even? It just irks me whenever someone shares these lists and I open them that I have to fight against the urge to close the tab because it's intimidating to go through the whole thing.
