For sure I read it. In fact, he defines On-Demand Learning as follows in that article:

"The second category is "on-demand learning", this is the act of acquiring knowledge when the situation demands it, not sooner nor later. "

Which seems to be the sort of learning he aspires to. Learn it when the situation demands it, not sooner nor later. Not-withstanding a definition of the term on-demand learning that conflicts with other definitions of that term.


You present a straw man argument based on the author's bio from his website. Of course that doesn't represent his full position. He clearly advocates for a combination of both approaches in the article
