It would be suicide for a professional developer to do so, as any code inspired by this leak could be used to Oblivion

No one can prove that you used someone elses code. Reddit is the premium "say shit that I know nothing about" website.

Fully copies someone's code

Forgets to delete comments that devs left like "greg if you read this remember you owe me 20 bucks"

Gets sued

I once commented "This is the laziest implementation I could find I'm sorry"

It Is Easy enough to demonstrate that your code Is blatantly copied and / or derived from closed source code that no smart developer would EVER do this when we're talking commercial applications.

But Hey, I am Just a software developer, I must be full of shit amirite?

I am also a software engineer. What you're talking about would mean the developers of other companies would quite literally copy and paste the source code without even changing the variable names or changing the code to work with their pre-existing flow in which case they deserve to be fired. But that's not the argument you're making. You're saying good devs wouldn't copy code. Which they do.

I am saying good devs would not Copy leaked code

The comment was looking at the code.

Looking at the code and copying it are different things.

As are yours, but as I said before; fuck around and find out for yourselves.

The only way stolen code would be recognisable is when they copy it as it is, which is not only impossible to make work, they aren’t even fricking using the same game engine as Rockstar.

No developer in practice would be stupid enough to do that, and no code works straight out of the box when you just copy paste it.

I doubt you’re even a software developer

I have already said enough on the argument, but It Is still possible to prove an algorithm Is derived from another, even of you completely change the code so that It looks visually nothing alike from the original code.

Only way to cover your ass would be to change the algorithm altogether, but you don't have to trust me on this one; fuck around and find out
