Do people really constantly copy-paste code? If I don't know something I'll look it up, but then I'll read the answer and apply it to the code I'm writing rather than copying it directly. I rarely see a piece of code that I can copy over directly into what I'm doing, and even if I can it's usually not thr best idea because the naming etc would be inconsistent
