- exodust 10y agoThat's quite sad. Most of the time SO is a source of learning a new technique rather than copying code snippets letter for letter. We are shown a cool way of doing something with fewer lines of code for example, and we apply that method to our own projects. If someone wants attribution for code, it better be something self-contained with its own home on github or at least a blog somewhere with a unique name: "my awesome plugin v1.0".
