As discussed before, people who have no knowledge of software engineering assume everything ever needed can be found on, or copy/pasted from the internet, and all software ever written by a big company is without bugs.

Sometimes I think I should have studied archaeology. At least dead things don't change, they don't argue, and I *know* there will be bugs in them.
An old friend is a QA engineer. He once said "You know what the difference is between a software developer and a QA Engineer? The developer assumes the code will work. The QA Engineer assumes it will fail!" He was right in his definition, and his assumption.

(Of course, making it fail, and documenting how and why it did is what he got paid for, so he could cite lots of supporting evidence.)
