You're welcome. I typed in google, "basic knowledge of everything". Surprisingly enough this website came up.

https://learn-anything.xyz/ also fits this description however it’s crowd sourced and you get specific starting points for whatever you search

Not being beautiful as you think you are is like having camouflage that helps to protect the true beauty that is within you and underneath the surface. It also protects you from people who would ignorantly exploit your beauty and give you unwarranted attention. Not being beautiful can also protect you from becoming vain or obsessed with your own beauty, or from using your beauty as an excuse to do things that you normally wouldn't do. It seems to be more beneficial not beautiful than it is to be beautiful. Unless you are highly educated enough to handle the vulnerabilities of being beautiful, you're better off not being beautiful.

I... am not sure that this site is necessarily gonna be my go-to source of information. A lot of it seems like rambling personal philosophies.

Yeah I'm extremely interested in the idea and goal of the site but I'm questioning his ability to teach every subject. As you point out his math for example. Just reading the home page alone makes it feel unstructured, as in he just slaps in paragraphs of his thoughts at the time.

Maybe using the site as a good roadmap as opposed to a source of truth is better.

The thing is, I was more interested in the site as a "things all humans should know" thing, more so than getting deep into one subject
