In general having a goal to exhaut textbooks by copying them is stupid. That’s not what they are for. Get rid of that strategy.
Suspected as much… but I am not sure what strategy to replace it with. I definitely plan on doing all the exercises, and sometimes if I also write down some of the theory/proofs it helps with recalling them later. I’m guessing good rules of thumb are: stick to the essentials; use common sense; review at appropriate intervals.
I’m fine at asking a question that doubtlessly won’t get removed. A question. I’m not sure that asking 20 (good, rule-abiding, thought-out) questions per week in a given forum would last me very long. That’s about how often I might get stuck if I do some exercises every day.
On stackexchange nobody has a problem with someone asking a lot of question provided they are good, rule-abiding and thought-out.
You can also answer questions of other people. It might even be better than textbook problem because someone well tell you when you are wrong via comments.
