| hello, as always: imho (!) recognize that software-engineering is not about writing / vibing code but to solve (!) problems. nobody cares if the code which solves a problem is generated / copied / written ... as long as it was legally obtained ... ;)) anyway: code is liability, every line of code which was not written to solve a problem keeps future maintenance-costs low(er) ... additionally especially for non-trivial problem-solutions - read: projects -, its essential to have maintainable code. which means, code that is ... * easy to understand ~ new developers * easy to extend ~ new features * easy to sustain ~ update dependencies, update the underlying runtime-environment etc. especially if it solves a complex problem for a company, the code may be used for years or even decades =?> keep that in mind! just my 0.02€ |
