I believe if nothing else then it's the fact that there are more programmers meaning less hardcore people who just want to get shit done and move on

- kuzimoto 7y agoI think this is accurate. I'm pretty technical but with no formal education on programming. Currently I can only tinker with programming in my free time. There are a lot of huge gaps in my knowledge and it sucks sometimes, but at least Stack Overflow allows me to solve certain problems more easily, so I can get on with doing fun stuff.
- arghwhat 7y agoRegardless of trade, I never approve of this mentality as the "shit" rarely gets done responsibly or sufficiently, as that cannot be done without fully understanding at least the chosen implementation. Perfectionism is not required, and can get in the way of professionalism. This is about a minimum amount of responsibility. (Learning is different though.)
