Banana fanna fo fanna

Every newbie programmer knows about pscode; I haven't been there in a year or so.

I think I've only ever visited it once.

Well I've never visited it, I'm leetar than you two.

PSCode is not only for newbies, I'm sure there are lots of expert programmers who spend time there helping others and contributing.

There are, but of course nobody (except you) says anything about that...

Are there any general licensing terms for pscode code? Or are you supposed to negotiate with each author?

I believe it is on a per-author basis

Steal it and hope no one notices.

That's something they could improve then.

I've only been there a couple times. :/

I've been there quite a few times (though not lately) and I've posted code there.
This'll make an interesting test for broken AV:

I used to be a pro-closed source zealot, but iago converted me, so now I don't see what's so wrong with pscode as long as it's used properly (eg. not stolen from, but learned from.)

PSC is where I learned everything. My book only explained so much and when there was something specific I wanted to learn, I would go there and figure it out. I don't use it very much at all anymore, but it used to be a daily thing with me.  :P

Most of my learning (and subsequent help) has been on the MS-hosted GotDotNet website (as I am a .NET programmer).

My first submitted code sample was the CRC-32 algorithm that I based my BNLS authentication on:

http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=37a91f12-ca84-49df-a2d7-d8a36cfcc933

Looking at Dragon's code (posted IIRC by Yoni), mine's a lot more concise.  I'll submit a more efficient example (of BNLS auth) in C# to the BNLS guys at some point -- just not right now.
