back in school we was tasked to write something, i dont recall what it was but it was mostly facts. i found a good paper on the internet and while rewriting it i thought to my self, why am i rewriting it? it was already written exactly as i would put it, and the facts where right. so i gave the paper i found on the internet to the teacher. but so did also one of my class mates. thats how it feels like when reusing someone elses code. it feels like cheating.
