Do you write down what you write down on the internet?
As in a blog or wiki? I do not because I am not authoritative. What I know came from reading, doing, screwing it up, ad nauseam. When something finally clicks for me, I write it down because 9 times out of 10, I will need that info later. But my writing would be so full of inaccuracies that it would be embarrassing and possibly lead someone astray.
It's how cults start!
I've started to take a l lot more notes at work I guess there will be a time where I take notes of what month it is!
You may jest, but there are times when I can't remember what I had for breakfast. They say that you never truly forget anything, but that our recall mechanism fades over time. For a myriad of reasons, including age, my recall mechanism is shit.
Offt depends what you had and your version of health. I am hopeful that technology helps when I am that age, only a few years but ai agents seem to be a start. Just need to let go of those big data fears.
