Every project I work on has a technical-decisions.org file. Also a daily-notes.org file with every failed experiment, test, install command, etc. The top level headings are dates.
Technical decisions used to be in the daily-notes.org file, but keeping in a separate file makes it more accessible to LLMs. I actually started that practice before LLMs were in common use, I struggle to remember why.

Should that "why" be in technical-decisions.org or daily-notes.org?
It should have been the first entry in some project's technical-decisions.org file!
this is why in 2023 i started livestreaming whenever I work at my PC. I also take these kinds of daily and project notes, but it's a bit tedious and can take you out of the flow. so I just let youtube capture everything I'm doing and if I need to go back and remind myself of something (or ask an LLM a question about my livestream history, in the not too distant future) it's all right there.
