> Even back in the 2010s, my need for stackoverflow and google had become minimal. Web search engines are mostly for quick navigation this day as a lot of sites don’t bother with a good navigation menu. It’s faster to search the title of the page than to deal with the offered navigation widget. > Reading and writing code is just another form of literacy, so I don't get this perspective at all. Same here. I read and write code just like I read and write English (which is not even my second language). Coding is trivial. Most of the time is spent on communication (with the team and the stakeholder) and on reading documentation (so that you know the implications of using a function or what’s inside an object at a point of time). And even the latter is shortened as you got more familiar with the libraries.
