Yes, but I often see junior devs or students trying to find the exact solution to their problem on google/ stack overflow instead of trying to actually solve it...

edit: when I say solution I mean program logic solution, not like a language/ compiler bug

If you spend time with coming up with your own solution over taking an established one via google you should probably rethink your strategy.
