Ask HN: How do you guys keep track of information in a new job?

3 points by in9 ↗ HN
I'm a data scientist, and I just started working for a big company (one of the Ycombinators unicorns) and the scale in way bigger than my previous jobs.

How do you guys keep track of SQL queries, micro services, what each one does and the whole production pipeline?

Do you guys have any tips or advice for me?

I usually set up a notebook in some digital notebook (e.g. Microsoft OneNote) with different pages for different types of information.
+1 for note taking. OneNote or Dropbox paper. Something that you can organize by topic and easily searchable. Although I'm not too impressed with the search quality of OneNote
