Meme transcription [Kid drowning in pool]
In the background a person plays with a kid in the pool. The person is labeled “Companies updating their website”. The kid is labeled “The company logo”.
In the foreground a kid seems to be drowning. It is labeled “Useful information”.
In a second panel a skeleton sits at the bottom of the pool. It is labeled “The copyright year”
Tangentially related, I remember at one of my jobs being tasked (several years in a row) with updating the copyright year in all our source files’ headers.
it’s probably a red flag if your website can’t do currentYear() in the footer.
Or have a single general footer that they all refer to.
that’s actually an anti-pattern. the purpose if a copyright notice is not to declare the current year to each visitor, fyi.
