I have to start to learn how to automatically create notes. I’m starting to forget how my systems work together, too. Fortunately when I research something I do it the same way every time so I come up with the same result, then go to implement it and find all the scripts etc that I forgot about that do that job.
I hate the “Microsoft Recall” idea, but damn, I need something like that with an AI to keep it indexed and searchable as it relates to my activities. All self-hosted, of course.

Can relate. When I get to going on something, I have to force myself to pause, write the shit down, and proceed on. Then after the session, I’ll review my notes and insert any addenda that needs to clarify a certain point or problem I had that I fixed. It’s a process for sure, but for the most part, I can stand up a Linux server, with firewalls, defenses, docker containers, et al and be ready for production in about a solid day’s work. So, notes are paramount and I lean on them heavily. Then, after everything is buttoned up, I save the raw notes in a labeled sub-folder that gets backed up to multiple stores such as /projects/takeovertheworldproject/. Finally I transfer that to Trillium, which is searchable.
