alt Hacker NewsI started writing down any of the technical decisions I needed to make before implementing them, usually just a sentence or two on what I'm choosing and why. I I looked back after 6 months and the pattern was embarrassing. I spent days agonizing over choices that turned out to be totally reversible and made quick decisions on things that actually mattered.

How did you find patterns between these sentences?
The pattern you found between reversible and irreversible decisions is interesting. Did writing them down change how you made decisions going forward or did you just keep making the same mistakes with better documentation? Asking because I have tried something similar and found that knowing my pattern did not actually fix it. I still agonize over the wrong things.
