In the early 90's I used to have 50+ phone numbers memorised. Now I struggle to remember my own number.



Your own number is presumably not so old.

How many of those 50 do you still remember?


None. All gone.

I also find this with code syntax. Because looking it up is so easy, I don't bother remembering it. Back in the 90's I remembered all this, no problem. Now I have to keep checking how to initialise an array in whatever language I'm in.

Ofc, it could be old age ;)
