faithful

When used to describe a person, "faithful" often implies a long-term commitment or loyalty, such as in a marriage or a deep friendship. When describing a copy, translation, or adaptation, it means the result is very close to the original and does not change the meaning or details. In a religious context, it refers to someone who consistently follows the rules and practices of their faith.

Gotcha. I'll just copy-paste it and call it a day then.

💡
David uses 'faithful' to mean an accurate, precise reproduction of the original data. Mark responds with 'call it a day', a common idiom meaning to stop working on something for the rest of the day, reflecting his slacker personality and desire to do the bare minimum.
