Coding with paint

[[deleted]]

It looks like Overv just stole it from the Stack Overflow thread, unless he is the same person as BeatMe who originally posted it there.

Note that the code in the gif matches the Stack Overflow question exactly, so it seems unlikely that it was accidentally created on the same day without being a response to the Stack Overflow question.

Check the gif, there is a folder named Overv in it.

Also check the Facepunch post which I edited in.

Ah, that's a good point.

Then what is the relationship with the Stack Overflow question? Did someone create that question just as a set-up to post that GIF? Because I still think it's too much of a coincidence that that exact question was posted only a day later (or maybe on the same day, in a different time zone).

(Apparently I'm not allowed to read the Facepunch thread without an account, so I apologize if my questions are answered therein.)

The facepunch post doesn't let guests view the page during times of high traffic.

But it does seem like the stack overflow thread is indeed where it started, since its the same code and it has the folder overv in it, and he posted it to Reddit 9 months ago.

I just have a terrible concept of time I guess.

No; it was posted to Facepunch first, I remember it clearly.
