2. STEALING chunks of somebody's code, i.e., passing off lines and lines of code written by another person/team as something you wrote is intellectual theft. So yes, that is 100% plagiarism. If they attribute it correctly according to the license of the code, then it's not theft.

I'm wondering where to draw the line between situation 1 and 2. At 5 lines of code? 10 lines?

Where you would have to cite in in a research paper as it is no longer common knowledge ?

I dunno, it might be "common knowledge" how to calculate the Gini but if you stole my code, you stole my code:https://github.com/oliviaguest/gini …

I agree. But I would have to cite your repo. I guess best idea is to cite wherever you got code since you had to look it up.

Yeah. I link to StackOverflow comments when I use their functions, even though I know that like me they probably wouldn't care, I also don't wanna pretend I came up with their functions either.

That may be too extreme for my own practice, but then again, usually only a small snippet is relevant for me. That said, if a significant portion of my code was inspired by another code, I will cite even if it no longer looks like the original.

I'll show you an example where I link to SO. I took this whole function and put it in my code: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22376126

I definitely don't not use warnings.filterwarnings('ignore'), so good for you for caring about warnings

Oh, THAT. Yeah, I can see how that can be a big issue. However, I do regular sanity checks on my data to make sure everything is as expected.

It's an excellent point tho. I personally rarely run into this warning, perhaps because I've encountered something similar before with object inheritance in JS.
