The best thing we can do with the questions we ask is record the answers for the future.
I was surprised when I saw in the internal "Stack overflow" we have at Amazon, I saw people writing both the question and the answer.
They figured out something so they decided to share it there. It helps to have an indexable knowledge base. At some point that will come in handy for LLMs.
Taking notes is crucial. If I don’t write it down, I’ll forget it. I work on many projects in parallel, so it’s easy to lose track.
I keep notes of everything I’m working on or researching in Obsidian. This creates a second brain for me that I can search instead of trying to remember.
I have plenty of information recorded so I can ask informed questions.

Thanks also for the mention, Basma!
We have a stack overflow at Monzo too!
It's super useful to have a questions/answers archive.
Because likely one question is in many people's heads!
And on a personal level one should always keep notes of the answers.
Like Mike suggested on another comment, a digital second brain app is really useful in this case.
Sure thing! Your article is worth sharing! 😊

Well said Mike!
Having a second mind is a secret weapon. Especially as you become more busier like you mentioned.
It's a great tool to not repeat yourself, and save your and others' time.
