Why type when you can copy and paste? I always type everything out the first time I’m introducing something into a code base even if I’m taking something straight from the docs or Stack Overflow that solves an issue I’m dealing with. It helps me understand how the data is flowing through whatever it is I’m doing, the structure of the code, and ensures I don’t leave in extraneous unnecessary flags and options. And I’ve always done this, I much prefer engineers who work slowly and methodically, understanding what they’re doing. It more than makes up for the “lost time” when you need to debug a complex system that’s on fire and people don’t even understand what the options and flags they’ve pasted in actually do.
