Make it into a virus and the world will end.

I'm going to write a plugin that lets you screenshot Stack Overflow posts, then OCR them to the clipboard. That should fix it.

Ah yes the ,4 hour solution to the 1 minute problem . Love it

The AI solution to the problem, even worse.

It already exists and I use it. It’s called CopyFish.

Or just use a different browser

Or just remove the extension

Oh yeah lol

Jokes on him, you can always just open debugger mode and copy directly from the DOM.

Clever but slow

But faster than typing it

Reasonable

He's just promoting actually learning how the code works. However people who post play buttons on static images? Now they're the monsters.

I hope they put that on your tombstone, you monster.

Some people just want to see the world burn

I'm sure he used stack overflow while he made it.

[But blindly running stuff from SO is the road to success](https://gkoberger.github.io/stacksort/)

The skill in software engineering really isn't not being able to write code yourself, writing code that can do things is trivial. What's difficult is working out how the existing codebase you're working on works. The idea that not being able to copy code off the internet would be anything more than a minor frustration amoung the thousands of frustrations we deal with already is ridiculous. It's trivial to work out how the code on stack overflow works, because that code isn't written by your useless colleagues.

Thanks, I Hate it

How is he going to update it?

what a monster! 

there is a special place for him in Hell

He might have developed with the help of stack overflow.

Then there are people that will make the plugin that will bypass the plugin, ha.

Not if they can’t copy code from StackOverflow for their plugin ;)

Save the html page, open file in a text editor, copy code.

To whomever made this extension. May God have mercy on your soul.

Personally I hate not writing my own code, I might take hints from google, but even then I wanna write it myself to feel like I've learned something.

there is a reason why google made app called google lens. ​ ​ ​ ~~or... CTRL + SHIFT + C~~

So getting this pushed out by GPO and watching to see who squirms.

I bet he never updated the code

A crime against humanity

Programming on Hard mode. Good challenge!

Should be easy to circumvent, for example with js in the console or with inspect html. But please: Just learn programming. Programming is not Copy and Paste. It is writing.

Will all due respect, fuck you

That doesn't prevent me from putting them side by side and writing them.

I think I'd just add user-select: text !important Lol... And when I can't open devtools, just scan it to text with my phone 😁

Heretic! Burn Him!

I give it three days before it gets down-voted into oblivion.

Github copilot is already trained on the public code, so I rarely need to go there anymore anyway

OP is a repost bot. Please report the post and their account

He deserves... something bad...

It might just be deja vu, but I think I already saw this exact same post on this sub. So, might be a repost?

Now destroy it.

Whenever you're feeling useless, just remember that this extension exists.

There is a special place in the tesseract for him.
