10X Programmer and Other Software Engineering Myths

I believe not only in 10X programmers, but in 1000X programmers. I work with a senior lead developer who has decades of experience, but asks for help with the most trivial issues (like, how an overridden method would behave and how to call the parent class implementation.)

I also firmly believe copy-pasting should be disabled on sites like Stack Overflow.

I don't think it's healthy to have an opinion on disabling copy/paste on Stack Overflow. It far too trivial.

If these are the kind of problems that you're experiencing then I think you need to find a more challenging environment where you're the worst developer in the team.

Copy/Paste functionality is in the browser not on the site.
