Oh, and one that most people might now, but nontheless is useful: Unsure if your spaghetti is done? Remove one spaghetti strand from the pot and throw it on a window or similar surface.
I just take one out and try it. Less cleaning that way.

When cooking a package of Ramen, don't add the seasoning while it's still in the pot. Instead, boil the noodles, pour into bowl while keeping water level fairly low, and then add and stir in the seasoning. You now have the entire packet of flavor in your broth instead of leaving most of it in the pot.
Wait, wasn't like this the way everybody did it? I am uncertain if I been cooking wrong or right my entire life...
Yeah... I didn't think cooking the noodles with the seasoning was that much of a thing. Heck, cooking the noodles in general. My method is:
1. Put the noodles in a bowl.
2. Add the seasoning.
3. Pour with boiling water from the kettle.
4. Let them stew for a couple of minutes (covering the bowl helps).
If you don't have a kettle, you can use the microwave - works for both boiling water or "cooking" the noodles (pour water, put in microwave). I'm unsure of what boiling them would do.
