So all writing of fiction is pointless because everything is just a reworking of previously used tropes?

Unless it's the exact same solution, I think there is always something to be gained.

Fiction is read for the fun of reading a different take on the same basic tropes. Most programming blog posts are not read for even remotely similar reasons.
