Seams easy enough? Don't have duplicate code and use existing solutions to problems(if they exist that is). Its not really a part of software development, it IS software development.

.. My point is. It is such a vital part and yet its not that much mentioned. I cannot understate how much cleaner code you will get if you put your mind into not having duplicate code anywhere.

hmm.. that may be a problem to get what we want with this rule.
 
So we can ignore it.

My statement stands. DRY <-> Clean code, time saved.
