Is it bad? No. Is it acceptable? No. Where is the line? It's okay to spend your whole day trying to get tutorials out of Google because the documentation sucks or you just have no idea how the f you can start with that idea. But you must be able to digest them effectively and extends those tutorials beyond just tutorials, and make something out of them. Otherwise, if you just reuse tutorial codes from top to bottom everywhere, then you are not learning. You are copying.
