Comment on Ask HN: How to remember technical topics which you don’t use/refer everyday?

Comments

Don't. Let them fade. Reread the docs when you need them. The amount of brain space you'd need to keep rarely used topics fresh is unimaginable. Relearning to ride a bike is easier than learning the first time (unless you've had a stroke). You'll pick it up again. Learn for the sake of learning and let go. All you need to maintain is the references and meta data.
