As funny of a joke “all programmers copy and paste” is, after 9 years that impostor syndrome should be gone, and if you still can’t figure out a solution without copying and pasting, maybe it is time to go back to the basics and learn how to code.
Pretty much. I try to tell juniors that the things I’m teaching you is things I made a mistake on. I have a decade of failure and I’m trying to help you shortcut it.
I’ve only been programming seriously (for work) in the last two years and honestly don’t get the copy pasting memes. I get copy pasting a 1-3 line terminal snippet sometimes, but idk how people are getting away without actually writing their own code.

The difference between a junior and senior developer is that a senior developer actually understands what he’s copy pasting

But who’s the guy that originally wrote the code that everyone else is copy pasting? I think Nathan Kellert desires THAT level of expertise.
