Feynman technique - a simple and powerful way to rapidly learn and retain new concepts.
1. Write down the name of concept you're trying to learn.
2. Explain it in plain English, as if you were teaching it to a new student.
3. Identify things you couldn't explain well, re-read the source material and research them. Try explaining again until these knowledge gaps are gone.
4. Simplify your explanation, get rid of technical terms and use simple analogies. ELI5.
With the death of CrashPlan, we had to move our backups elsewhere. Ended up using restic, rclone, Google Cloud Storage, and others to get it done, and it's working great so far.
Wrote up the process as a (work-in-progress) blog post here, if there's any interest:

And then I wondered why the english word didn't resemble the german word [that I know] - ‘geschwister’.
And then it turned out that ‘siblings’ is that rareſt of rarities: An english word that's actually english:
