How does one obtain general knowledge?

Answer 1

I changed your question from "generate" to "obtain" because you can't really bring general knowledge to existence. My answer to your question is to read more news articles, whether it be online or in a newspaper. You could also pick up a book or a magazine on the specific topic you want to learn about. For example, I see you've put this question under technology. There is a good magazine called "Technology" that you can follow up on and obtain the general knowledge of the most modern technology to date. Hope this helps and good luck.
