At my first software dev internship my manager asked me to code in languages I was not trained in. I told him I would need some time to study up on these. He scoffed and said just look up what you need on Google. Initially I resisted, I felt like it was too shallow. That it was akin to copying answers I didn't really comprehend. However it didn't take long to pick up the habit. Learning is like going to the gym now, it's self enforced discipline

That is because learning a computer language is not hard. Learning to program in the first place is hard, but once you know that the language itself is not hard to learn. However it is easy to verify someone knows the syntax of some specific language and hard to check if they actually know how to program.
