Comment on: Computer Programming to be renamed Googling Stackoverflow

maybe if you are a shitty/new web developer.

don't get me wrong, I still use stack, but it's more of a comparative tool.

I feel like if you don't have a solid understanding of the languages you use for your profession, and you haven't taken the time to learn the best practices, and you haven't built up a decent enough library of re-usable code, you probably aren't taking your profession too seriously.

Before I get crucified.... I am not saying the above for multi-purpose IT professionals. If you are admining/ doing desktop support/ writing code... by all means - paste that stolen code and get it up at all cost.

However, I am saying it for "programmers" and "web developers" who write code day in and day out. If you want to be taken seriously - you shouldn't be googling shit every five seconds. You should understand how your language/s work, their syntax, their best practices, how to document code written in it, how to understand other people's code, and have a nice cache of reusuable code.
