I write technical stuff to convince myself that I understand a topic. I'll write a tutorial for myself on it, and during this, ask questions that someone who doesn't know it at all would ask, sometimes I don't know the answer so I need to research more.
But at the end I can end up with a pretty good, in-depth, tutorial / notes / blog post.
I just don't publish them to the internet. But I find it's a pretty good way of checking how well you understand something. Like rubber duck debugging with yourself in a way.
