There's a difference between taking random code from stackoverflow or blogs and using a tried and trusted library. The latter is good: you're getting code that is well understood and probably with less bugs. The former is generally a sign of a bad developer. Someone who doesn't know what they're doing, so just pastes random bits of code from the internet until it works, without ever understanding why.
