My memory problem is not with documentation. Usually my IDE takes care of it.
As soon as I hit 40, I can't remeber what I did last week or before that. Did I solve that problem? Which customer complained about it? Where did I put that PDF?
Fortunately I am very organized, and I leave clues for myself all over the place. Readme files in named folders, details in commits, email myself with some information.
But more than often I am asked "was X display compatible with XYZ board?" and I can't give a direct answer anymore.
