I've straight up ripped code from StackOverflow that worked... But I had no idea why or how it worked ๐Ÿ˜‚ I taught myself Go and I'm decent at it, one of my coworkers was a former professional programmer who knew C and could fumble his way through Go. I later told him I had no idea what some of the code did because I did the old copy and paste and he just said "I knew you did" ๐Ÿ˜‚

When someone copies from stack overflow, a reviewer's first question should be "did you copy the question or the answer?"
