The Key

When I went onto Stack Overflow, I copy-and-pasted a snippet of JSX from a thread about in-line styling with z-index.

When I saw the rate-limited copy-paste functionality at the bottom right of the screen, I was already riled up and ready to be upset, outrage machine booting and all. I'd completely forgotten what day it was and just how quickly I bought into the fact that the tech industry isn't too far off from pulling something like this—maybe even worse.

Did anyone else fall for it or am I too gullible?

Kind of ironic that they'd highlight that you actually can't (legally) copy & paste code from StackOverflow. All of the content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, which means in theory you should attribute all your copy & pasting to StackOverflow (ok I sometimes do that), and you have to license your copy under the same license (nobody does this).

There's a good post about the issue here: https://empirical-software.engineering/blog/so-snippets-in-g...

Of course in practice nobody cares.

I think tomorrow might be April 1st... just my guess.

It looks like these guys have taken serious the copy/paste recurrence and now you can copy/paste on steroids.

Oh, every sentence of this is a treat.

I have ran out of my free copy/pastes for today. Is anyone selling theirs on ebay?

What about left handed people?

This was could be true but its April Fools too So I might be a good joke Lol
