Most of genz get it pretty intuitively because they grow up with Google searching. I didn't realise until recently how much more important it is you understand the answers than find them especially if you're getting a niche error.
Yep people who try to copy paste code without understanding it are not programmers.
Even though, I admit I do that myself with new languages. I tried to build a Rust async application and it worked but didn't properly work... I just put code in there and got something running.
But now I went back and read the docs and realized I'm doing things wrongly.
