Steal What Is Stolen

Steal What Is Stolen

The coding community's greatest philosophical divide captured in four panels! While designers clutch their pearls over similar ideas ("How DARE you use the same shade of blue-gray that I discovered after three existential crises?"), programmers have transcended intellectual property altogether.

The bottom panels reveal the beautiful communist utopia of code sharing. "I stole your code" isn't an accusation—it's practically a love letter. And the response? Not rage, but the zen-like acknowledgment that nobody truly "owns" code. It's just temporarily borrowed from Stack Overflow before being pasted into production environments worldwide.

This is why programmers make terrible pirates. They'd leave a thank-you note and pull request after stealing your treasure.
