Phrase it as a TIL (Today I learned) or discuss learning a particular topic. Be ready to accept corrections and if you can, update your posts to include corrections/edits/learnings.

It's a great way to show your learning process and start building your personal brand. The negative is that potential employers may not care that a post is 5 years old, if they don't read it properly and see you making mistakes (even long ago), you might be judged on it (but do you want to work for those places anyway?).
