Have I bricked my Arduino Uno? Problems with uploading to board
It probably isn't bricked
I've got quite a few Arduinos, and over the last few years have only ever "bricked" one, and I think that was by zapping it with static electricity. Unfortunately that ...

avrdude: verification error, first mismatch at byte 0x0000 : 0x00 != 0x16 using USBasp
The cause is most likely the fact that you "... do not use any resistors, capacitors etc."
Connect a 100nF capacitor between Vcc and GND. Connect a 10KΩ resistor between RESET and Vcc.
