Just loved this.

Malky··on Ask HN: What is one thing that improved your cognitive skills the most?
I feel that the basics like sleep, going outside before 10am and exercise were the most helpful. I also picked up tons of useful tips from Huberman Labhttps://hubermanlab.com/understand-and-improve-memory-using-...
Malky··on Ask HN: Do you have a smart system/method to track things in your life?
Great idea. How do you plan people to actually remember track stuff? I can track only work-related stuff. I keep going back to tracking stuff like mood, books I read etc, but forget in a few days.
Malky··on Ask HN: How to get better at spoken English?
Speak as much as possible, even if your only conversation partner is your dog.
Malky··on Networking Advice for Introverts
Comes as a non-brainer given the nature of the community, but I always felt that writing is a fitting way to network for introverts. If you produce content, you will find a group of like-minded people to share ideas with, while skipping the need to socialize face-to-face.
Malky··on Other Communities Like HN?
I enjoy r/ExperiencedDevs on Reddit.
Malky··on Ask HN: What would you do if you didn't have to work?
I would catch on some meaningful activities for the community and did some interesting physical activity, as in hiking in great locations, surfing, etc. When I work 60 hr work week, it doesn't leave much space for doing something beyond bare necessities in terms of exercise.
Malky··on More Airbnb Problems
Some journalists managed to urge Airbnb handle refunding better https://www.elliott.org/the-troubleshooter/cant-get-refund-a...
Malky··on Ask HN: Do you hate software engineering but love programming?
Sounds like you could enjoy being a security engineer and focus of identifying and addressing security vulnerabilities in sofware/systems. More problem solving, less engineering. Or maybe just go for a pet project with people you actually like, because the aversion to processes might just be a sign of bad management.
Malky··on Ask HN: How to come up with ideas for micro side projects?
Start with figuring out what persisting problem in your daily life or in the lives of people you know you can solve. When I'm stuck, I try to remember what complaints came up a lot and try to build something around that idea. If it doesn't stem from issues relevant to me, I tend to forget about the projects, so it helps.
