I do notice that while I can't keep the 30th API I've used in my head for instant recall, I am much faster at finding the big picture. I'm a big fan of diverse teams. A younger programmer can just plow ahead without my careful consideration, but that helps keep me from stagnation. Similarly, I can contribute the big picture stuff to make the long term smoother and reduce technical debt.

I haven't seen brain.fm, but there's so many tools that can help me improve the way I work.
