Stack Overflow is down. What now?
Published on by Eric L. Barnes
Copy and pasting is awesome, and so very convenient.
But this is not how you learn and become great at thinking for yourself, finding solutions for solving programming problems and most importantly how to be creative.
Over-using sites like Stack Overflow will not make you a better developer, it will only make you very good at clicking up-vote buttons and copy & pasting.
You owe it to your brain and future self that you try to find a solution first, and not give up just because something doesn’t work the first time you try it.
