Years ago I started out like this, then gradually started reading and understanding the stuff.

I sometimes feel like I go all the way around. I find a fix for a problem that says: just copy and paste this. I then spend 3 hours or more reading and trying to understand the snippet, or do it directly. Then I realise the fix is to just copy and paste that original snippet.

I guess at least I now understand why everyone just does that for that problem.
