This has not been my experience. I never take notes, almost never go to StackOverflow, and can find anything I don't know from MDN and W3 docs. Maybe it's because the things I work on are really simple, but I like to think it's because I've developed a deep enough understanding of JS/React/Redux and design my code in such a way that I'm easily able to reason through any task and resolve any bug.

> I'm easily able to reason through any task and resolve any bug. This is 80% of my code, but I only spend 20% of my time doing it. Its that obscure bug that really requires reading. I find if I am spending lots of time Googling/Stack Overflow, its for the quick lookup of parameters and a real world example.

  This. Op has either been very, very lucky in his tenure -- or, he has never had to build a site with compatibility requirements targeting >= IE9, Blackberry's browser, or Safari iOS (which is basically mobile IE).

I'm sorry but I literally don't believe you, especially if you're working in a space as quickly-evolving as frontend development...
