They also believe it doesn't involve any aspect of thought/planning/design/architecture.
They just want to write paste code and click run.

Today there are many many many 'developers' so you can find also 'developers' like the one you reported.

That's why I just prefer to consider me a simple engineer   
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I tried your code but I got an error;
"The file 'InsertYourFilenameHere.xml' could not be found."
How do I fix this? Plz it's urgent!

Clearly the problem is that your thingies aren't aligned properly on your disky. To fix, run "format C:\"

I ran for 5 minutes yelling format C with a disappointing face. It still does not work. BTW, emoticon for disappointed face is : |. You are welcome.
*I had to search if colon backward slash is a shorthand for an emoticon. Looks like it is not.

Do programmers gain exp by copy and paste?

You mean like in Dungeons & Dragons? With the option to become a dual class Developer/Paladin when you reach level 15?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Then copy & paste is the basic move that helps leveling before lvl 15. 
And then different activities are suitable for different dual classes. ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)
Developer/Paladin
Developer/Merchant
Developer/Healer
Developer/Prince
Developer/King
Developer/Bard
Developer/Mage
Developer/Necromancer
Developer/Ranger
Developer/Thief

Just for the hell of it, I'll be optimistic.
That implies that an old timer like myself (and many others in this lounge) don't have to worry about job security. Well, at least until the above-referenced cretins take over the management positions.

In this day and age where youth are programmed to have their thinking done for them, I do not find this surprising.
My experience as a lead tech for a service department says yes, there are other afflicted industries. The electronic technicians that are turned out these days are unable to troubleshoot effectively but they are good* at swapping parts until the device works.
*Good being far to generous a term to describe their skills as an electronic technician.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

That one kills me, when asked why they chose that part to replace, you get the deer-in-headlights look along with the crickets chirping sound. If you're 'lucky' you'll get the "well it worked before....on a different problem".
