Leaning on SO was always the inevitable conclusion, though. "Write once" (however misinterpreted that may be) + age discrimination fearmongering hindering the transfer of knowledge from skilled seniors to juniors + the increasingly brutal competition to secure one's position by producing, producing, producing. With the benefit of the doubt and the willingness to cut/build in slack all dead, of course "learning how to do it right" is a casualty. Something has to give, and if no one's willing to volunteer a sacrifice, the break will happen wherever physically or mechanically convenient.
