Used to copy every snippet by hand from tutorials, now I read the errors first and it takes me 10 minutes instead of 2 hours | Coding For Beginners

Two years ago in my Denver apartment I would pause a YouTube video every 30 seconds and type out every line exactly, then panic when it broke. A guy in a Discord server asked me why I never read the red text at the bottom of the screen, and honestly I had just been scrolling past it the whole time. Does anyone else skip the error messages out of habit, or did you figure that out faster than I did?
