As a software engineer of 17 years, you’re only 2 years in, you ain’t hot shit yet and have lots to learn. It can be difficult. Also, you’re probably just not great at searching/finding answers yet. Sometimes you need to look further down the Google results, or comb through closed issues/PRs in GitHub, or read a weird issue of StackOverflow that has a comment that links to another issue with the exact problem.
Researching / finding answers / problem solving / learning new things will be the #1 skill that will get you somewhere.
