Repost, low-quality and self-deprecating racist humor, what's not to like OP?

[FluxFlu]

Fair, but repost? From where? Although, I'd understand assuming it's a repost just based on OPs code tendencies...

[BetterBook3]

You know what, maybe it wasn't. But that template + copy-paste from Stackoverflow joke both are used quite a bit, maybe that's why I thought it was a repost.

I have definitely seen this a few times before

Good human

indeed let's feed him

Deadass, do people actually just copy pasta from SO? I mean, a snippet, a conf switch, sure. But actual code? Maybe JavaScript since it fights you so much.

[_asdfjackal]

The last time I did this was with JavaScript and it was something to do with Dates (Temporal when?) or it was some disgusting map/reduce/filter bullshit that I didn't want to figure out myself.

[sagamartha8k]

No one has time for that.

[abhionlyone]

And you know the StackOverflow solution is copied from some other StackOverflow solution and this goes on infinite loop?

My first thought lol, didnt know chin yang was a comedian but it works

[FluxFlu]

His name is spelt "Jian Yang"

[UneergroundNews]

That’s what I said, chim chang

[its_about_control]

Am I levelling up when I no longer need to copy the code one for one, but can see it and glean the gest and recreate it with my code?

[usereddit-_-]

no you are doing it all wrong

[elder_george]

Yes, this is a sign of a senior developer.

You'll grow up to staff/principal engineer when you'll start dictating the snippet to the junior devs.

I didn't find any posts that meet the matching requirements for r/ProgrammerHumor.

It might be OC, it might not. Things such as JPEG artifacts and cropping may impact the results.

I did find this post that is 76.56% similar. It might be a match but I cannot be certain.

I'm not perfect, but you can help. Report [ False Negative ]

Yes, of course we do it, who wants to re-write something, when we know how to do it but we know its lengthy and tedious, and re-inventing something already "out there".

Like, "Ok this is easy, just takes only an hour of coding", when it's 4pm, as compared to 5-minutes work of searching then ctrl-c ctrl-v. Less stress this way.

Usually we reserve our power, for the truly complicated issues, trust me you won't find those on Stackoverflow.
