Exactly. I cut and paste all the time but I make sure I know what the code is doing first before I actually add the code.
There’s also a lot of “what idiot wrote this code” only to check git and find out it was you.
As a backend developer who occasionally has to work on the frontend, that top image is pretty accurate although it requires bootstrap smeared all over to pretty things up a bit. After that it will have the “Good Enough” seal of approval.
That’s how I always felt about it. As long as I get paid, I don’t care what they do with the software.
