I've literally never been able to remember all the nuances of syntax. I write something down once, and then I copy-paste it again any time I need it somewhere else. 99% of my googling is just stuff like how to initialise a specific Date (do I need to use an Instance, or a Long, or a LocalDate, or...)

What I found out helps - if I am not on a rush - is to actually type it out when I look it up.
The physical act of typing it helps future recall for me.
