Certain people just aren’t “real programmers”. I worked with a guy who would cut and paste some example and change a couple things, and respond with “I got this working” Meanwhile I would said okay, what does it actually do, where’s you copy it from, what did you change and why... At this point he would just get mad at me. I'm sorry I don't want people cutting and paste code they don't understand and sticking it in our codebase.

And the issue is the fucking search engine, I can't understand why when you search for JS,html,css documentation google sends me to outdated websites like w3c schools. I always have to foce a search on MDN. A newb can also copy paste bad Python code, mess up some ORM clause and delete all your database. But in this case oh PHP and MySQL even the worst dev shop uses a framework or library, so this article is probably affecting almost nobody that matters.
