		I started making sure my notes included the search queries keywords/keyphrases/terminology I uses and any webpages or documentation that I successfully used to come up with the solution (and where relevant, and search queries or misunderstandings on my part that lead to dead ends). This hasn't solved the problem of sometimes needing to do new things, but it at least gives me a map to remind me of the parts of the rabbithole I've explored before.
