“busted” for using code that works without introducing bugs to show you understood It... Whether, let alone how, they violated the license is not a subject of the article. Expecting code review to detect plaigarism is.. Writing code is editing an encyclopedia, not writing poetry.

If using code from Stack Overflow is plagiarism, then something something glass houses.

Expecting code review to detect obviously-wrong placeholder text, however, is pretty reasonable.
