As Indie Hackers, learning new skills is really important, BUT we have limited time to do so. So I'm trying to learn how to learn more effectively. Here's a post summarizing what I've learned about distributed and interleaved practice and why it works.
tldr: Aim for frequent, manageable study sessions (< 90min). Practice a variety of problems at a time rather than grinding the same ones over and over.
You may not feel like you're learning as much in the moment, but studies show you'll gain a deeper understanding this way.
What do you think? How are you learning new skills?
