Does it happen?
>>
Of course.

>>53538203
Yes, literally all them time.
>>
>>53538203
yes, I do it quite often
>>
>>53538203
All the fucking time.
Stackoverflow java devs are not a meme.
>>
Yep.
>>
I know that plenty of people do exactly that for assignments. It happened a lot in Java 1. The prof has common sense, and caught them in the act
>>
I do this all day at work. I can't write anything more complicated than hello world, and I spend all day mashing stackoverflow snippets together until they work, usually by changing variable names or deleting parameters from parameter lsits and trying to get them to work. IF it doesn't compile, I copy and paste another snippet in its place and start over.

I make over 100k, my title is 'Senior Software engineer' and I have three people under me, simply because I've been BSing this for over 7 years by now.

I faked my degree, I was a bio major and applied to a few places as a CS major and got hired.

AMA I guess

>>53539532
Living the dream, congratulations
>>
>>53539532
Holy fuck you are my role model.

Which languages do you consider easiest to "fake" via SO, except for the obvious answers Java and C?

Do you never have to do something fairly unique which can't be glued together by using snippets?
>>
>>53539532
Too fat
>>
Yes but only for non-creative bullshitware. Try developing something more complex with that strategy and you'll fail sooner rather than later.
>>
>>53539532
That's basically what I do when I'm working on shit that I don't know about, like WMI. I made a program to replace all the printers on everybody's computer and management was happy. Unfortunately the more of that type of shit that I do the more projects they dump on me.
>>
Yes. And it's easy to spot because of the poor quality
